Got Super Mario Wonder when it came out, loved it, have a Switch 2 now and absolutely zero interest in revisiting the game or these multiplayer additions.
Scrolling down to see how many times I can find the "They can't call it Reunion because Crisis Core is already called that" comments is my new favourite game. They could honestly sell a t-shirt with those words on at this point
This is the final nail in the coffin for me, I haven't bought an Ubisoft game in years, watched as they fumbled with NFTs, thought they were the epitome of 'creating value for shareholders', but cancelling this and focusing on generative AI and games as a service, at this point they are just too far gone. I'll never buy an Ubisoft game again.
This is going to be a tough year for any company that sells consumer products with RAM and NAND memory, I think that has a lot to do with this panic.
As for Nintendo's software for 2026, I think a lot of what they have planned for the year is as of yet unannounced and a February Direct will likely shine a light on the year.
I'm aware I'm stating the blindingly obvious, but a slightly pale purple and pale turquoise surround to the analogue sticks does not make me want to buy joy cons. When they decide to colour the whole thing, I'll bite.
If we are actually going to talk about the game...
I have played the PSX and the 3DS version of DQ7. This demo already shows Reimagined to be the best version of the game. So excited to play the full version.
Like some of you, I would also like Dragon Quest Builders 3, but the team that made the first two have just made Pokemon Pokopia. If they do Builders 3 next, no chance it will release this year.
I think the team that have made DQ7 Reimagined are starting work on DQ8 Remake, The HD-2D team will now make HD-2D versions of 4, 5 and 6. The aim is obviously to have all numbered titles playable on modern systems. I do hope that DQX offline is also part of the plan for the west and fingers crossed for a big DQ12 reveal this year.
This article is scarily well timed as I bought a copy of Ring Fit Adventure on Boxing Day, with the intention of improving my fitness level. I missed it the first time round, but still have my old Switch for the joy cons. Was genuinely shocked to see this article.
I've played through Xenoblade Chronicles 2 twice, it's a brilliant game. A Switch 2 definitive edition with all DLC and Torna included would be something I would definitely buy.
I finished this game, I don't remember it being bad in the slightest, but I suppose the issue is that I don't remember a single thing about the game, no enemy, no area, no piece of dialogue, whereas I do remember vividly both it's predecessor and it's successor.
When the trailer started and I saw Samus on the bike, I thought it was a different Metroid game, that it couldn't possibly be Prime 4. Then Samus got off the bike and it obviously was. All of the excitement I've had for this game just drained out of me. Not at all what I was expecting or hoping for.
Re the idea of a dock that will provide higher resolution graphics, can you explain how you think that would even be possible given that everything would be running through the Switch's USB bus? Ok, I'll answer the question for you - it is theoretically impossible, so you might as well stop speculating about a dock upgrade.

Re: Nintendo Producer Kensuke Tanabe Has Seemingly Confirmed His Retirement
Having finished Metroid Prime 4, it makes a lot more sense to me now it's being described as the first in the "Sylux Saga"

Re: Video: "It's Actually...Really Good" - Our Hot 'Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour' Preview Take
It's just absolutely unfathomable that they didn't pack this in. It's the most baffling decision.
Re: Funko Fusion New Story Trailer Revealed, Out On Switch This November
I'm really glad that Funko Pops exist, because if someone owns them, that's a really strong indication I am not going to get on with that person
