Definitely keep it as a second console. I’d probably delete all the cartridge games and use it as strictly digital only to bring on trips and stuff.

That new Mario game… 🤔

Never played the game - 21/25! I guess I know my Nintendo franchises…

Fantastic game, all who’ve never played this are in for a treat! Let’s hope this’ll mean we get a Mario RPG 2 🤞🏼

While we’re at it, shut up that caterpillar that keeps telling me how to equip badges and open the map. Stop treating me like a child in this child’s videogame! 🤪

Loving the game. Badges are fantastic and my favorite part (other than the wonder seeds)—a “play your way” mechanic which I really appreciate so far. Challenge ebbs and flows, which is… fine (looking forward to tackling all of Special World). It’s definitely too cute, and the story and constant chatter is annoying, but the game is really fun overall. Heading to World 6, hoping for: a) more challenge, b) weird unexpected movement badges, and c) more interesting levels. 8.5/10 right now. ☑️

The Jump! Jump! Jump! Level(s?) are great! Just what I was hoping for. Wonder… I’m warming up to you… 🔥☑️
Also, the Sproing expert badge (or whatever it’s called) where you always jump adds a fun layer of challenge. Great game—score is now 8.5/10 lol

@NeonPizza Snake Eater is absolutely amazing. Nothing comes close to how awesome that game is. Last of Us 2 has moments that almost get there… Anyways, get it on PS5 and ENJOY!!

@Baler Yup, waaaaaay too cute 😑

Enjoying it so far, but something just isn’t resonating with me. Maybe it’s the overly cute design (not vibing with the overall art direction) or the simplicity in some of the levels. Also I really want to ride Yoshi…
I’ve only just got through the first castle, so probably too early to give a full sentiment. Right now, 8/10.

Awful and stupid, but arguably no worse than running around with automatic weapons shooting human beings in the head. This is all emblematic of a larger issue in video games.

Great article. Having started at the OG Gameboy, the Color was a revelation. Very fond memories of playing both old and new games on that machine. I think I had a transparent purple one… was that a thing? Like so many childhood toy stuffs those old systems are gone with the wind… 🥲

YOU KNOW WHAT WE’RE PLAYING 🍄

@Wolfleaf @switchforce Exactly what I came on this thread to say! Goldmine indeed! Or Elephant Toad please 🐘🍄

Waiting patiently for the Elephant Mario Amiibo announcement… 🤞🏼

Lack of challenge is somewhat disappointing, but I’ll live. Hopefully there’s some extra layers of difficulty in the challenge stuff. And there’s always Bloodborne… 💔

I think Pikmin has finally hit the big time ☑️

This is all a big, “no, thank you”

On Switch, still polishing off Pikmin 4. Maybe some Vampire Survivors while we watch… Survivor!

@SteamEngenius Plastic shaped like our favorite fictional characters!
Hoo-ray!!

Holy cats! That headline image is bonkers! So bad! They really dropped the ball with this Switch port.

Both still available in US from Target! Just preordered tonight ☑️

Can we get Chris Pratt as Goro? Pleeeeeease?!

Yellow Toad—duh!

Free junk with every purchase! 🍑💨

I haven’t started the game yet, but it sounds like it’s already massive. No DLC required for me, thanks!

Japan all the way. Classic RPG box design, and I love that it features so many more characters.

I keep flip-flopping on this game. It looks beautiful and magical but far, FAR too easy. I’m hoping that levels they’re not showing are infinitely more challenging than what’s being shone here.

Okay, I’m sold and preordered. So many games to play, but this’ll be a fun nostalgia injection.

Looks great! Gato Roboto was a lot of fun. Glad they went full color this time !!!🌈!!!

Can Konami delay the Metal Gear collection on Switch too so we can have 60fps 🥵

Definitely waiting for the physical for this one. Plenty to play, no big rush here.

Finishing up Pikmin 4–love it so much!

This is likely the only platform I would buy this on, to play sat on my coach on my OLED beauty. But only after that price drops a lot. I bet Rockstar is ready and prepared to play cowboy chicken with us in that department lol

This art style is… a choice 😑

So glad that Pikmin 4 is doing well, it is utterly fantastic. I’m nearing the end (I think) and it’s making me sad.. 😢

Okay now I’m excited! Now it’s time to go back and finally beat the first game. That final boss… wowza… ☠️
And then the DLC!! Agh!!! And then…
🔥🔥🔥 ARMORED CORE 🔥🔥🔥

This is giving me Secret of Mana vibes with the party-based ARPG combat system. Looks like it has a good sense of humor too. Definitely seems like one to look out for!

Yes and I found it! But then I forgot the name of it again 🤪

0% because one of my third graders (rightfully) convinced me to actually finish Breath of the Wild first, so I’ve been (joyfully) clearing as much of it as possible this summer. Beat Calamity Ganon, and now just wrapping up shrines, leveling up gear, and finding those pesky Koroks. Such a fantastic game! I’d love to say I’ll start Tears of the Kingdom soon, but…
🔥🔥🔥 ARMORED CORE 🔥🔥🔥

Nintendo’s new console just leaked:

“Super Nintendo Switch, Console No. 2”

Never finished RDR2, so I’d likely go back to that first. But I sincerely hope the game launches in a MUCH better stated than that unbelievably atrocious GTA port… wowza

FINALLY, the return of Reptile!!

Definitely a game that I love reminiscing about, and that lives in my memories as an absolute favorite. Actually playing it these days can be an exercise in tedium, but those memories will always be lovely! A beautiful RPG, and a true SNES favorite! 😍 Right there next to Earthbound and Chrono Trigger for me.

I really love the Japanese box art, but that gold box with the shield is too iconic and nostalgia-laden for me not to choose it as the best!

Pikmin 4 is my first Pikmin game, and I love it SO MUCH. I definitely would like to play 1 and 2 when I’m finished—gotta do my Pikmin history homework! 🌱

Wind Waker, more like Wind Winner! Ehhh?!!

Have preordered Blasphemous II for Switch. But still playing Pikmin 4. And Tears of the Kingdom sitting on my shelf… unopened!!! And this little game called ARMORED CORE VI!!!!
Never enough time…

I’d love to see Samus Returns released on Switch. I’d pay $60 for a physical copy, no hesitation. Never had a DS or WiiU and really missed out 🥵

No OLED screen, no sale!
