This makes me queasy. It’s like an alcoholic trying to adopt more children. Microsoft’s only guiding idea and inspiration is the dark idea that everyone will someday come under their umbrella. They look at Zelda TOTK and say ‘wow, how did they do that?’ because they literally don’t know. They don’t know how to make fun games that people value. They spend all their budget just sucking things up like a vacuum.

@LastFootnote same at Target lol

@dustinprewitt I got into Pokémon at the age of 12 with Gen 1 in 1999. I feel like that’s the oldest I could have been and still gotten in on the hype. I don’t think anyone older that 7th or 8th grade got into Pokémon back then who wasn’t already really into RPGs. It’s just interesting to me cause I experienced Gen 1 along with kids 6 or 7 years younger but basically no one older than me.

I’m playing 11 now. Only ever played 1 before that. Gotta be honest it feels very grindy and drawn out. That’s great for the fans but it’s maybe something I should have steered clear of.

This is the only fighting game I ever got into. Still a classic.

@LikelySatan yup haha. They think Americans are angry. Reggie said the first time he met Iwata he asked him why he was so angry lol

Interesting that the US one has smiling Mario and Japan has the angry Mario. I know that with Kirby at least they would always have it the other way around.

This guy is excessive in all the worst ways.

This is not a real thing. People just need something to tweet about

I like the idea but that pixel art looks a little too good to have actually run as a playable game, barring some kind of next level development wizardry.

@QLM17 I agree. It’s super nostalgic for me. It feels almost like a 3D MK demake.

If your first is inevitably your favorite I have to go with Super Circuit. It’s not like I had a bunch of friends to play with anyway lol so the single player was good enough. The music for Sunset Wilds is still some of my favorite.

Got all 3 this month. Card Shark is wonderful, but I can’t shake the feeling that the gameplay loop and tutorials could have been done better. The game felt like it was constantly putting me through tutorials instead of giving me simple rules to use to get to know the deck. It’s strange to say that a game can be great without great gameplay but Card Shark really has a lot going for it in every other department to write it off completely. I wish they could refine the gameplay and turn it more into like a real puzzle game that forces you to learn the rules deeply but allows you to improvise. If it did that then I think you’d really ‘feel’ like you’re cheating at cards instead of following button prompts.

Game Freak / Nintendo need to set this up as a recurring program. They’re just gonna keep on encountering this same situation every new game.

This is actually what I’ve always wanted from 3D Pokémon

@kerplunk exactly. Why not just say when it’s releasing

@Serge_G Glad you enjoyed it. I thought it was pretty great myself but they toys (even though they were cool) were t actually practical to use in the game. The gameplay got a little repetitive too, but overall it was a good time. Sad to think they probably won’t do a sequel.

@StarPoint Guard is seriously underrated. I wish it had become its own series like Captain Toad or Pikmin

Crazy. This used to be one of the cheaper games to get

I sat on the DLC for 2 years after buying it and then finally beat it the day they announced this… lesson learned

If only more devs had even tried fully 3D games on DS. That system had a lot of untapped potential

This looks amazing. I can’t believe they’re actually doing it. My only concern is that those boss fights look a little easy. I still lose lives on some of the boss fights in Turtles in Time.

This is only for the super fans. I wish they’d do a lower tiered one for 70 or 80 with just the art book

I know these are dead horses, but what about Star Fox, Wario Land… F-Zero…? I think we’ve got plenty of Zelda and Mario as it is. If nothing else I’d go for another DK game.

I think the torruz mods looked better, but this is still a pretty cool effort.

Why would I want folders when Ive got everything in alphabetical order? If Nintendo wants me to use these they shouldn’t have trained me to live without them for 5 years. Now folders just seems like busywork.

This was first true ‘indie’ game maybe 4 years ago. Still think it resonates

They’re taking the heat off the bad press from the eshop. Classic PR move

Can’t believe we’re actually getting Portal. I know it’s old, but I’ve never had a system to play it on. Strikers was a nice surprise too.

I’ve been wanting this since day 1 of the switch, never thought it would actually happen

I got the smaller 50 dollar one. This thing kind of defeats the purpose of having a game boy

I don’t know where this expectation for a ‘pro’ model ever came from. Is it just cause Sony did it? You just have to look at the ‘new’ 3ds to realize pro models don’t make sense for Nintendo hardware.

Good luck polishing a turd

Wow, very surprised by this. I already had paid my preorder. It was looking a little dull as far as remakes go so maybe this will bring it to the next level. Nintendo already has a stacked holiday lineup especially with Dread being considered a triple A experience.

Probably I’m just old, but you used to only get 5 hours out of a 60 dollar game and that was good enough. You’d replay it, but that didn’t mean it had great ‘replay value’. If something is between 8 and 20 hours I’m happy to pay for it. I have no expectation that every game is a 200 hour adventure.

That’s the 5 years in which I got old

If this is the case it’s time to dump Sega. No one was impressed by the addition of those games.

There’s no good reason that EXP share has to be always on, especially if that wasn’t the case in the originals

Advance titles were never going to just be handed out for free in this service. It’ll probably be another 10 years before they do that.

The hype is totally justified for this. Everything they show adds more and more substance to this game.

They are really slow in rotating the available seasons. I really want to watch Johto and have never seen it on there. Season 1 abd 2 are always available though

Casey Jones is definitely going to be on the left side of that logo

Am I being a boomer, or does it make no sense to award a game that hasn’t even released?

I finished this one last year over about six months or so. It was brilliant and well crafted, but honestly just too grueling. The problem is that you never exactly feel like you’re getting better because the challenges just keep ramping up with little down time. Also, each of the successive 7 or 8 worlds have more and more rooms to the point that the last two worlds really start to drag and feel like a game in themselves. Put it this way, in 2d zeldas you have an hour of adventuring mixed with an hour of dungeon time with maybe 5 really tough rooms in each dungeon. Mole Mania is like Zelda minus the adventuring, three times the total dungeon rooms and almost all of them you have to think your way out of. Maybe appealing to hardcore puzzle abd retro Nintendo fans, but hard to recommend otherwise. Either way, glad I played it. Never felt unfair and I definitely felt a rush of achievement afterwards.

Playing Yoku while reading this. It’s a gem.

@SalvorHardin The difference with Mario 35 and All Stars is that the terms were made clear from the beginning, so the expectations were clear. If Nintendo were to release a mobile game abd say it’s only getting support for one year, that’s fine, I won’t invest too much in it.

This is lame. I will even defend Nintendo when they do this with Mario 35 or All Stars, but when it comes to mobile games it feels worse. This is why I don’t put much time or effort into mobile games. I really liked Miitomo and then poof, it’s gone.

I only just got a 2DS in 2015. Doesn’t feel like that long ago. It was only a couple of years after launch but the excitement for streetpass had definitely worn down by then.

I’m honestly not sure how this is a st. The kid started out with a buttload of money to begin with.

They could have been planning this for 20 years
