I mean given it’s the ALttP and ALBW map, downfall timeline. Boom article over. 🤣

Cobra triangle was ok… I remember playing it a bit back in the day. Otherwise, 7 titles is a pretty big step up in the normal rate of game re-releases.

They are going to have to change the game selection screen in NSO as the current set up is just not user friendly with a larger game library

It reads like he was walking around holding it out threateningly as the knife it actually is then tried to claim fidget toy like a doofus.

Loving the first few comments too

Yeah seems to me people are overthinking it. Play games to escape, not deep dive into analysis of sex and gender and their evolving roles in modern society. If you don’t like the game idea/mechanic that’s cool. Don’t play it. No need for soapboxes here

Portal and Shadow of colossus have always been on my list. I knew they would never come to a Nintendo system… but then portal arrived. Maybe I can hope for shadow of the colossus. Always been on my play list.

They’ve done a great job. Very much a spoiler warning for this in case people come to the comments before watching.

@benscene sorry, checked both my 3ds from my 2014 Japan trip. Never got any tiles from the ANA puzzle. Sorry 😞

I’m actually looking forward to MP4 and hoping for remakes of MP 2&3. Also hoping for TP and MM so my kids can play though. Echoes is up there, but probably behind the switch 2 reveal for me.

I would have to charge and fire up my 3ds. I travelled through Japan in 2014. Could it be on there? Should I check?

I remember getting over a hundred street passes at Disneyland Tokyo probably in March/April 2014. This was better than the birth of my child!!

It will be a few days before I can check this… I’ll keep you posted.

Journalists used to be about ‘protecting their source’. Times are a changing.

@Cipher36 loved way of the warrior. White zombie doing the sound track was immense. Road rash had sound garden on the sound track too. The 3DO was a pretty good system.

Crash and burn was another game I played a lot of

I second your vote for 3DO and salute your brilliant taste in games… I played almost all of your list A LOT

God I think I played this on the 3DO almost 30 years ago

Having skipped the GC era I really need MP 2 and 3 remakes now. Very keen for this game

Clear as mud haha. So we know not much.

Yeah I’m blown away that this is 3-6 months off release and this is the first we’ve heard of it and no leaks or spoilers. That in itself is completely mental

You can only make 4 echos - this could be upgradable because 3 would have made more sense… Tri has little triangles behind him/her that get used up with each echo you create

Carbonara…

Even though much of this is not for me, there were a significant number of games which have huge followings.

Also Nintendo managed to keep so much under wraps… new Mario brotherhood game, new Zelda game, MP4 less kept secret but still a huge deal. That stray game, I knew nothing about because I don’t own other consoles but former GOTY contender… that’s pretty big too.

So I have to give this a 10. Quality of games is high, but more importantly Nintendo kept this all under wraps.

New Mario, new Zelda, new Metroid, dragon quest etc. It would be hard to top this without the switch 2 reveal direct having similar catalogue + Mario kart

Others have started speculating on switch 2 release now and to add my 5 cents, they would be crazy not to aim for coming into Christmas 2025… peak sales period, lots of time to keep manufacturing units and time for ports… lots of ports

At a glance I just assumed this was ALttP/ALBW map.

The other side of the rift is BoTW lol

Awww man. Prime 2 and 3? TP and WW HD? Would have loved those.

But Zelda echo game came out of nowhere!

Has stray been released previously on other consoles? Looked like it had awesome potential

It’s been so long now, may as well just hold on until it’s a masterpiece

Ahhh Tetris game boy. My dad would frequently steal my game boy and play Tetris for hours on end. A 40 something year old smashing Tetris back in the 90s is testament to its ease of play

WW HD, TP HD, Metroid Prime 2, Metroid Prime 3

Needs a lot of work for switch2. This is a positive sign

They will announce that they changed the sign at NoA headquarters. Then they will announce that Doug Bowser’s body is ready and that switch 2 releases tomorrow.

My kids are in love with little kitty big city. So if you have 9 and or 7 year old daughters, it’s worth it

Bring to switch please

Also please delete my comment for street cred. I mean I can’t read all the comments here but there is some almost malicious reporting which is a shame on a thread about arguably the best in the PoP catalogue getting a remake

Questionable news worthiness. 🤣

I loved street pass on my 3DS. Best ever street pass was Disney Land Tokyo. Had to stop every 30 minutes to clear through the next 10 street passes. Annoyed my wife no end (edit: this was 2014 and I had no idea there was a >10 limit introduced in 2016 - thanks for that gem Zion). At the time I was living in Cairns in Far North Queensland in Australia, maybe a town of 100-150K people which would yield ZERO street passes no matter what I did - and pre covid this was a tourist Mecca / party town.

Prior to that though I would occasionally go to street pass meet up events and it really did encourage me to keep my 3DS on me everywhere I went as a 30 year old.

So I think street pass is actually a really positive feature, both community building and encourages you to use your device (a positive for Nintendo).

I endorse street pass for switch 2 👍

Deku tree is disappointing, but I think I will have to buy from a collectors perspective. A larger scale set ie hyrule castle is almost certainly in the works.
I hope they do a set from each major 3D Zelda, and a 8 bit tribute to the original.
OoT - deku tree
MM - the moon or the mask?
WW - the boat set, I think a lego ideas submission had it rocking on the waves way back when
TP - wolf link
SS - ??
BoTW - guardian or hyrule castle
ToTK - Zelda dragon with master sword

I’m a little disappointed to be honest

That’s phenomenal. Whoever created this, as a fan effort, he should be salaried with Nintendo or something. This should be the standard emulation process for N64 games on NSO because I don’t think I can go back to the crummy emulation efforts after seeing this.

Sorry, I have only silly questions

Why does temu think I need so much body armour?
When does switch 2 come out?
Can we rename NintendoLife to SwitchyMcSwitchFace?

Perhaps if a corporation wrongs an individual they should have to pay 30% of their income to that individual? Doesn’t pass the sniff test.

How he wasn’t advised to claim bankruptcy I have no idea.

I think the article is relevant and also an opportunity for some light hearted reporting. 👍

I’ve basically finished a second playthrough, just farming to get fierce diety set maxed, and almost have full hearts. Then I’ll stomp ganons face again. Second time through was no better or worse, but I found BOTW better the second time. Sadly that comparison will always loom over TOTK’s legacy. It’s a great game but the lesser sibling

CAT!
And I feel he is inspired by between 2 ferns…

As an adult fan of lego - insert shut up and take my money meme

Vibration gimmick. The translation suggests Japanese is a brutally honest language.

Short of having a billboard in game with an ad on it, that’s more in the background like in a real stadium, there’s no way to do this without alienating everyone.

I have to admit, second stage ganon power bar was epic.

The journey of the master sword was some great storytelling. However, the rest of the story was a bit of a letdown, and it’s still a little jarring if you try to join the BOTW and TOTK stories any more than superficially.

TOTK is a great game, I can’t deny it, it’s just such a shame that BOTW came before it as it is just a bit better.

40k per month. I want a slice of that pie. Too rich for Microsoft and Sony too… have to wonder if x went a little greedy on that.

I wonder with time how musk will be remembered for his handling of twitter

Hopefully the longstanding rumour mill of prime 2 and 3 being ready and HD WW and TP being ready are true. Easy money for nintendo.

I actually hope Metroid prime 4 is a launch title for switch 2.

Who cares about ps2 numbers anyway. A portion of their sales were primarily as a dvd player and Sony has already moved their lifetime sales figures once. Switch has sold like hotcakes including during a global financial slowdown because of the pandemic. Someone put up that graph of Nintendo profits in the switch era the other day… I think that’s the metric that shows who the real winner is.

I suspect my kids will love this game

I know this is about a snowflakes chance in hell, but shadow of the colossus is on my wish list. Port that over Nintendo. You managed to get portal which was my other wish list item that was also assumed to be impossible.

Love that ad! Makes me want to play hahaha

I would be interested in prime 2 and 3 ports. Maybe WW and TP ports.

Edit: Posted without reading replies. Seems I’m not the only person who feels this way 🤣

Haha having watched the boys I think they’ve done a great job with this cameo. Just ridiculous

The big reason for joycon backwards compatibility would be if you can get a cheaper model of switch2 without joycons from a money saving perspective. Cost is always a barrier to uptake in a new system.

Otherwise I would think most would be better off with new joycons, but there is definitely merit to wireless backwards compatibility only.

I’m still really struggling to picture the Zelda series translating well to a live action movie. I will be so happy to be proven wrong, but very nervous for all involved.

My switch is on its last legs, the charging dock only works about 50% of the time, so if there is backwards compatibility switch2 will be a day 1 purchase for me. I’ve mainly gone digital over physical too so fingers crossed that doesn’t backfire on me and the transfer between units is seamless.

I sincerely hope that NSO comes with a dump of new content and doesn’t continue this pathetic trickle. Virtual console on the Wii was the last time Nintendo got it ‘right’ and ironically was what brought me to this website originally hahaha
