@Pikman Slip Second was fantastic!
It would be amazing to have it ported.

Just pre ordered it!
Can't wait to play it and I hope it will sell well enough to have the original Trilogy and, perhaps, more classic IPs from Nintendo.

What are they waiting for?
Day one for sure!

Classic Trilogy wouldn't be bad either! Bring it on.

No, not getting it.
Haven't played the ones before and feel like these games have nothing appealing to me.
Was checking the third one to see if it was good but reviews are in general mixed and the game seems to be average.

Numbers must be declining...
I was a sub and would not sign or recommend it to anyone as the service is not very good.
Till they start to offer N64 and GC games, it's not very appealing to me.

Burnout Paradise is 8.99€ currently in Europe.

It will probably be cancelled as it leaked like the Zelda series...

Nintendo is really scraping the barrel.
Already past the time to bring 64 and Cube games.

As I mentioned before, I think Nintendo missed the boat on this one. The OLED is not good enough to make me want to get one.
However, the Steam device is everything I was expected the mythical Pro Switch to be. On the top of that the price is right on the correct mark to make it a very attractive option.
I'll wait for the reviews of the Steam device and if they are good I'll get one on the first opportunity. This time my money won't go to Nintendo.

Switch killer.
Nintendo missed the boat.

@PSoneboi agree, I think Nintendo missed the boat with OLED, it should have been a real 'PRO', able to keep up with the new generation.

Steam Deck portable console had its details announced and it will be a powerful machine capable of running triple A games on the go. The price? Itwill start at $399.
Nintendo better be careful with their idea of keeping the same underpowered hardware around for too long.

I've 18 and last year's version and must say that the games are really good.
Of course you have loot boxes but that doesn't mean the game is pay to win.
I'd say that if you like basketball you can't go wrong with these 2K games.

Never played and plan to get it when discounted.
Still going through my backlog.

@AtlanteanMan 100% agree with you.
If these games sell well enough they might open doors for other dormant IPs.
I really hope that Cruis'n will have a good number on sales.
Perhaps we could see in a near future games like F-Zero, Pillotwings, Wave Race, 1080.... We just need to support these releases from the start.

Another one to skip then...
Wish Konami would release their game on the Switch.
More competition would be better.

Now, imagine, a new F-Zero game with this possibility and Nintendo 'magic'....

@roboshort I'm sure they will and, hopefully, that will be sooner rather than later.
In this announcement though, I think they missed the opportunity to announce the 'real' Pro version. As it is now, we can't expect another revision at least until summer next year.
The point is, by that time (if it happens), wouldn't it be a bit too late?
I find it very difficult to believe that the developers will manage to keep porting the games released in the PS5 and Xbox.

@roboshort sorry, I meant a processing 'power' bump to keep it up with the competition.

Disappointed as it did not upgrade the specs (performance) .
It will be nice for future owners but definitely nothing that would make me want to buy right now.
Happy with the version I have.

Nintendo of America just announced the new Switch OLED version!

After playing Mario Golf since the release date, here is my feedback about the game :

• graphics are a bit rough in some parts of the courses. The floor on the Bowser map is very bad. Character models also seem strange sometimes. In general it doesn't feel very polished.
• maps sizes and variety are good but it feels like the developers didn't invest too much time in creating a mushroom kingdom of golf courses. Apart from the Bowser map, all others seem to be 'normal'.
• you can't skip or fast forward the computer's turn.
• there is no replays!

Now the good :

• controls are good and easy to pick up.
• courses are fun.
• Character selection is good.
• super rush mode is really good, certainly a nice addition.
• story mode is fun and a good way to introduce the game mechanics.

Even with those sort of negative points, I'd still recommend it.
I hope that the updates will improve a bit the graphics, will bring more courses and add extra modes/challenges.

Surely the last fighter will be Waluigi. Surely.

@tntswitchfan68 jesus dude, take a chill pill and get out of your mum's basement for some fresh air.
First of, I didn't mention what kind of control each game has and I couldn't care less about it.
What I said is that the Mario Party game didn't get any DLC (paid or not) and IN MY OPINION, it didn't have enough content.
And, of course, Nintendo doesn't own us a thing the same way I don't have to buy their games. In this case I won't get the new Mario Party.

Personally, I think that a new Star Fox with a similar gameplay as we had in Starlink is the way forward.
I'd love to see Nintendo developing the gameplay over that idea and, perhaps, combining it with on foot infiltration missions with the possibility to change characters so that you could use their skills etc.
That would be a great game in my view.

@johnvboy I need to sell my Mario Party copy. Still feel the bitter taste of that game.
It's bonkers that Nintendo had the audacity to announce a brand new entry and didn't offer any meaningful update for the other one.

I'm still hoping for a limited physical release 🤞
Otherwise, I big discount would make me get it on the eShop.

I've just received my copy and played a 18 hole game in the basic course.
Also started the story mode.
So far it's what I was expecting, I mean, I only played the N64 version and that was a brilliant game.
I feel that this one has a similar vibe with added extras.
I don't think it's a bad game, it does what it's meant to do in a fun way.
Perhaps, it might be missing some content but if it follows the same steps as the Tennis game, then, updates will arrive. Hopefully, these updates will arrive quickly and constantly so ppl don't lose interest in it.

Thank god they already announced some dlcs.
It would be another Mario Party disaster to offer another half baked game.

I've preordered it and can't wait to play it!
Only good memories from childhood with this game.

@Don I know it's not ideal but if you watch the trailer there is a list of tracks, they appear quite fast so you need to pause the video often to read them.

@Realness by the info on the trailer it seems that we are going to have about 29 tracks and in those tracks it will be included the 5 from the original Arcade release.

It looks so nice!
I remember playing a lot with my friends.
Certainly day one and I hope it will sell well enough so that Nintendo can bring back more dormant IPs.

It still amazes me that it's taking this long to present, at least, a short trailer with some gameplay.
I mean, Platinum most certainly have assets from previous games that can be used and further developed.
It's hard to believe they'd start everything from scratch.
Perhaps Nintendo is holding them back?

From what was shown I plan to get Mario Golf (already preordered), Metroid and Cruis'n.
All others that I'm interested will be released next year only 😐
And for Cruis'n, I do hope it will sell well enough to give a sign to Nintendo to bring more dormant IPs in the near future.

It's going to be released in March next with the Switch Pro.
Believe me, I know!

They should have done it with the first Mario Party.
I'm still annoyed they announced a new one and didn't offer a single DLC for the thé other.
For Mario Golf, I'm excited, it's been a while since I've played one of the games and have good memories from the 64 version.

I'm getting it for sure. It was one of the games on my eternal wishing list.
Hopefully it will also sell enough to encourage Nintendo to bring more dormant IPs back to life.
Put Wave Race next on the list please.

Is it similar to Xenoverse?
I wasn't very keen on that one...

After getting the very weak first Mario Party, I'll wait for this one to be on sale.

Nice surprise! After Square Enix presentation and omission I didn't expect it to be released on the Switch.

Wave Race for Christ's sake!

One thing is certain, it will happen.
The question is when.

Personally, I'd love to see a new Switch and announcing it now for release at the holiday season would make sense but I have doubts about it.

Basically a Funky mode.
Should splash the monkey on the cover too!

@Ryu_Niiyama I'd love to see MvC series coming back too, specially those entries from the very beginning (X-men Children of the Atom, Marvel Super Heroes, X-men vs Street etc...) but that would be extremely difficult to happen as Marvel /Disney would be involved.
Darkstalkers, however, wouldn't be a expensive effort and could bring them some 'change$' but I suppose they currently have other priorities.

What I want to know is where is the Darkstalkers collection?

Wow, busy month!
Lots of nice games coming out!
So far I've only pre ordered Mario Golf but have many others on my wish list.
Here is hopping that the rest of the year will be like this - full of nice games!

Still awaiting the Batman games to be ported ...

It's on my wishing list for so long!
Now bring Wave Race and 1080.
