    i liked some of the BOTW footage, but it really just makes me want more already. I have to remind myself to be patient because if it's as good as BOTW, i'll plug hundreds or hours into it

    From what I can tell, this super monkey ball isn't just a remake, but will have new stuff too. Nick Robinson on youtube has spoken with Matt Brian, who does the announcers voice and it sounds like he was recording a ton of new lines. Very excited about that.

    Advance Wars!!!

    Finally some SMT V gameplay and it's out in November.

    Warioware and Mario Party will be fun party games.

    Metroid Dread looks cool.

    I'm actually annoyed with Mario Party Superstars. The big problem with the last one is there aren't enough boards and it would make sense to update it. If this was like a $10-20 DLC for Super Mario Party, I would be all aboard. But it being a nostalgic collection they'll probably sell at full price is pretty annoying.

    It's pretty Nintendo.

    See: Skyward Sword and its price.

    I'll be downloading them on my hacked switch just for local play though so the price doesn't matter to me.

    Rumor is they won't announce the double pack til after Skyward Sword comes out because they want people to buy that.

    BotW 2 and Metroid Dread are the only two games that spoke to me. This is usually how I feel about Nintendo Directs though. A lot of their games aren't for me, and that is ok since there is a market for everything.

    I don't know how many of you play portably but that's how I play 95% of the time and this grip is on sale, it makes hand cramps a thing of the past, I love it.

    Mario Golf Super Rush is getting mixed reviews. IGN dogged it pretty bad (6/10) but other reviews are stronger (Polygon called it the best Mario sports game in over a decade). Seems like lacking content/replayability is the big gripe (adventure mode too short, not enough courses, etc) but it will be getting DLC (maybe some of it free? not sure). I will still be copping it. It has a 74 on metacritic at the moment as reviews are rolling in.

    Tony Hawk 1+2 is also dropping tomorrow on Switch. This is a game I'm for sure buying, and the question for me is to get it on PS4 or Switch. I have no plans to upgrade to PS5 so my PS4 will remain on my TV stand for years to come (I use it for sports games mainly, but I also still need to play The Last of Us Remastered, and have a few others on my backlog like Doom and Star Wars Battlefront 2). I would prefer it on PS4 because of my history playing Tony Hawk 2 on PS2, and also for the better framerate and slightly better graphics.... but I don't pay for PS Online anymore and don't feel like turning it on. So if I go with the Switch version I get portability (not a big factor for me because I rarely play on the go) and online. Also in the long run my Switch will probably remain on my TV stand for longer than my PS4.

    Bottom line I'm going to check out the Switch reviews to see how much of a drop-off there is graphically and see if the online functions well. Most likely I'll get the Switch version.

    I haven't watched the video yet myself, switchup are good reviewers though.

    Sorry for not responding sooner. I am making new levels and re-uploading levels I made in the original Mario Maker for a world I am making. I have 31 of the 40 done.

    My creator ID is NV4-1GT-4GF. You can search for it like you can search for levels if you didn't already know that. If you ever get the chance to play some of my levels I would love to know what you think of them.

    Oh man, I forgot about Killer Coin Collection. Yeah that was an expirimentation on the new features I could use. I am not even a fan of those kinds of levels. Red Yoshi is a lot of fun and Jungle Run is tiiiiiiiight. Making that wasca happy accident. Let me know if you ever play some of my newer levels. I love getting feedback.

    I did Bowser's endless army today. I'm not familiar with any of the new items mario games use so I got stuck a few times but I figured it out. I think I lucked out during the boss fight at the end. Beat it on my second try.

    Well my wife's copy of Pokemon Snap came today. She loves it so I'll probably have to get my own copy to play it.

    My copy of THPS 1&2 comes tomorrow I think.

    Some of my latest levels were made much easier so the first level in the world I am creating wouldn't make you want to rip your hair out.

    Bowser's Endless Army took a long time to make because it was several ideas crammed into one level. I wanted to use all the 3d World tools and that was the best I could think of.

    I got THPS on Switch too. I've been playing with the Pro Controller and it's great. I haven't played it on joycons but I've seen some comments of people complaining about it. But it's probably still sweet to play this game on the go.

    No significant difference for me going between handheld and pro controller mode. I tried it with the stick or using the manual direction buttons and it works either way.

    God I love that the School is closed for Covid and the mall is a fucking run down shithole now.

    Sweet (I’m not actually good)

    My opinion is still TBD on Mario golf. They definitely focused the game on the new speed golf format and I’m not yet sure if I like it (not to imply I don’t like it… I’ve only barely dipped my toes in the water yet). Also I’ve yet to try battle golf. I will say if you just want a traditional golf game, this isn’t it. I mean yes you can play basic mode but the courses and features are focused on the new formats.

    OLED Switch for $350 dropping October 8 (same day as Metroid Dread).

    • 7-inch OLED Screen (current version is 6.2 inch LCD)
    • New adjustable stand
    • Improved audio
    • 64GB storage (up from 32)
    • LAN port added
    • Comes in white or red/blue

    Seems like a nice but modest upgrade. I'm not sure it will entice a lot of current Switch owners to trade-in but it'll be good for new players.

    I love it!

    Not enough to upgrade, tho. I love my original switch and it works great. I'll prob get a Lite at some point, but that's about it.

    Seems like this is just about making the current Switch a little shinier. Smart move. The next system will be Switch2 and it has to he coming sooner rather than later so don't waste upgrades now. The OLED screen will be beautiful but nothing here to make anyone who didn't want a Switch go and buy one.

    I bought my wife the lite when we were both into Animal Crossing and it's nice. The smaller screen makes some games look better. Hades looks great for instance. I don't see how anyone plays switch portably without a satisfye grip but luckily they also make one for the lite so I got that for her too along with a case for it.

    I play my switch on portable 99% of the time with no case or grip.

    then again, I’ll often switch to the pro controller when playing because it’s so great

    I've played this game a bunch on PC and on my phone through Xbox Gamepass and I love it. Maybe I'll finally beat it on Switch.

    Been waiting for more info on Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. JSR is one of my favorite games of all time and it's been criminally overdue for a new sequel. I'll take a spiritual successor any day.

    https://www.vooks.net/spelunky-1-and...n-switch-eshop
    Both Spelunky 1 and Spelunky 2 will be released, at least in Australia, on August 26th – just a couple weeks away. The first game will set you back $15.00AU and the second $30.00AU.
    All I need now is Persona 4 Golden and I can throw my Vita away.

    I'm interested in getting a Nintendo Switch but I'm also interested in getting a PS5. My PS4 is about 5 years old, knock on wood haven't had any issues so far.

    Thoughts?

    How much does playing games handheld interest you and how much do the games on switch interest you? If you're more interested in playing the switch docked you might want to just consider the PS5 depending on what games you're interested in.

    I loved playing the Wii and I was a huge fan of the WiiU. Especially the virtual arcade where I have about 15 games from several different consoles, the N64 games are kind of ass to play but still fun. Nintendo has a handful of games that I'm willing to buy an entirely new console for. I'm a huge Super Mario fan, Mario Maker is probably in my top 20 of all time games and part 2 looks incredible.

    With the PS5 it's almost like I'm looking at it more from a multi-use aspect. I don't have a smart tv in my living room, somehow this 10 year old flatscreen has lasted without issue lol, so I use PS4 to watch DVD/Blu Rays plus all the streaming.

    I lost my WiiU in the divorce, so my kids are always asking to play Mario Kart or something from the Wii/WiiU and then they've brought up me getting the Switch. I've literally owned every single console Nintendo has dropped other than the one that came with R.O.B. I think I can get some mileage out of it but I'm torn.

    It sounds like you should get a switch to me. If your main use of a PS5 would be media I'd get something cheaper. I love my shield tv, you can get the cheaper one for $130 or the pro for $200 and I hooked a hdd up to it (which I don't think you can do with the cheaper one) and have movies and TV shows on it to watch through Plex in addition to the usual streaming apps. There's also the new chromecast with Google TV for $50 that works like a firestick and a chromecast combined. You can stream to it from your phone and install apps to it. I have that in our bedroom and it works great. Neither of those play bluray disks or DVDs though but depending on how many of those you have you could download them digitally instead or just hang on to your PS4 just for that.

    Back to Switch though, they've pretty much ported every big Wii U game to Switch at this point so as long as you don't mind rebuying the games you can probably get back almost every game you had on your Wii U. Unfortunately as far as virtual console there's really only NES online and SNES online, you can look up the games those include but I think you have to have a Nintendo online membership to have access to those. There's rumors that they might come out with a GBA online type thing but so far it's just rumors. As far as N64 I think it's just the Super Mario 64 port which was part of a Super Mario Collection which might be hard to find now since they said they were going to stop selling it for some reason.

    I do have a shit ton of DVDs and Blu rays so worst case if/when the PS4 craps out I could just buy a DVD/Blu Ray player, those are usually what $80? The one I let my X have also had Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. on it so shit I should just get that back lol.

    See, I have a Raspberry Pi now, back then I didn't so I'm not negative on not having the games I do on the WiiU from the past. And if they do have a lot of the big WiiU titles available that's a plus. They do still seem to be very hard to find, everytime I'm at Target, Wal Mart, even Gamestop it's always everything BUT the console. They have that mini version but fuck that shit. I knew I should've bought one when it came out and knowing Mario Maker 2 would be on it. Shit I'm even interested in Animal Crossing lol.

    $80 looks right, at least on Amazon.

    Here's a list of games from Wii U on Switch, it might not be complete.
    https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Lis..._Switch_system
    Turok, Turok 2, Doom 64, and Star Wars Episode 1: Racer are Nintendo 64 games on switch.

    I haven't looked at electronics sections in a while but that's surprising that the Switch is hard to find. I've only heard about the PS5 being hard to find. It seems like there's plenty of switches on Amazon. You can even get the Animal Crossing one if you want, it looks like.

    Yeah I don't do a ton of online shopping and I did notice Amazon has them. But yeah when I go to these places, they have the Lite version but not the normal. I might just buy this Mario Kart one for $499.

    It's your money dude but that's $140 more than it should be. Also, keep in mind that the Mario Kart game included with that console (which is just the neon red and blue console) is a digital download so you might want to buy a micro sd card. You can get a 200gb for $25. I think Mario Kart is like 10gb not including updates. Smash Bros is closer to 15gb.

    Damn, glad I'm just in the pipe dream phase still lol. I just kind of glanced at the first 4-5 that popped up to get an idea.

    The switch goes for $300 and the game should be $60, maybe $50. You might be able to find it cheaper than that but Nintendo doesn't like dropping their prices really. Most Nintendo games stay around full price and the best you can hope for in a sale is $10-15 off. I got Breath of the Wild for like $40 from target and was happy for the deal. You could probably try to buy pre-owned from like ebay or your local game store though and maybe have better luck. The games are on cartridges so you don't have too much to worry about, its not like games on CDs or DVDs where they get scratched up.

You could probably try to buy pre-owned from like ebay or your local game store though and maybe have better luck. The games are on cartridges so you don't have too much to worry about, its not like games on CDs or DVDs where they get scratched up.
    Yeah that's not bad at all. I would definitely get the switch plus 2-3 games and probably be good for a year lol.

    Switch is totally worth it. Best 3rd party support for a Nintendo system since the SNES.

    Ni No Kuni 2 runs terribly in the overworld area. I'm talking 20fps or less. Combat is more like 30fps or above. I can't recommend anyone buy it for $60. I don't think the overworld is a huge part of the game but it still should be cheaper. $40, maybe.

    is that in handheld mode or also when docked? i got my wife both ni no kuni games when they released on the playstation, but she never liked playing on that console for whatever reason, despite loving the games. she rebought the first when it came to the switch, and imagine she may want to do the same here.

    I have only tried it handheld. I think the review video has docked footage and it doesn't seem like it's quite as bad docked if that's in fact the footage they're using.

    Nintendo Direct tomorrow at 5PM CST.

    Rumors of a new controller, possibly something that can play the also rumored N64 games coming to Nintendo Online.

    It's gonna suck if they dont work out a deal with Microsoft to get the Rare games. That's like half the best N64 games and Goldeneye is probably a no go regardless because of the Bond license. But no Banjo Kazooie games? No DK64 or Diddy Kong Racing? Gtfo

    What I find interesting is, obviously you'd assume Mario 64 would be there but they also just put out that limited Mario All Stars game. Maybe that's part of why it was limited, because they knew this was coming around the bend.

    Also, Mario Party 1 or 2 or 3 would be nice... but they're releasing Mario Party Superstars later this year so I assume that will be off the table.

    Goldeneye would be nice, but give me Zelda, Mario Kart, Wave Race and Mario Golf and I'd be stoked.

    I still have my N64 so I'm not amazingly excited for this anyway.

    I don't think you can buy that Mario collection anymore. It was limited time for some reason.

    Castlevania Advanced Collection is pretty sweet. Hopefully they sell well and they port the DS games too.

    Chris Pratt as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, and Jack Black as Bowser sounds like fan fiction.

    Diablo 2 on switch looks pretty good. Runs at 30fps. (handheld) Starting out as a necromancer. I enjoy having minions fight for me. They seem to stay around a lot longer than they do in Diablo 3. They might have some invisible life bar I'm unaware of as opposed to the timer they're on in d3.

    The N64 games are solid enough, curious to see what they charge for them though. Not ideal that they're putting these in another pricing tier.

    Didn't see Wave Race which is a bummer.

    I don't even know what Nintendo online costs right now. $20 a year? I wouldn't be too upset if the higher price was $30-40, anything more than that would be absurd.

    Yeah, $20. I would expect $30 or $40.

    I'm just excited because people were able to mod the snes and nes apps to add games that weren't included so hopefully they can do the same for genesis and N64.

    Castlevania Advance Collection runs great. Even has some quality of life improvements for each game you can turn on or off as well as save states and quick rewind. Aria of Sorrow is the best one in the collection. Now I'd like to see them rework the DS castlevania games to not use touch controls and release those.

    Very interesting and hopeful to see Banjo Kazooie on the coming soon list. If they've made the deal with Microsoft to get those games (maybe not Goldeneye) then that's pretty much all they need from outside developers.

    This is very interesting. Banjo-Tooie and Diddy Kong Racing can't be far behind. I'm so fricking happy.

    But I also feel kind of stupid now. I bought a N64 recently so I could play my old games. I wasted my money. However if they don't have Revenge/World Tour then I still have a reason to play it.

    I highly doubt Nintendo Online has WCW games.

    It showed up online a few days ago. I'm admittedly not a huge Metroid fan, much like Zelda, but I played a little of it. I was surprised there's a twitch platforming segment when escaping an enemy. I think that part will be easier if I dock my switch and use a pro controller. Joycons are not great for things like that.

    Hot Wheels Unleashed is fun. RNG is shit for blind boxes though.

    Some of the legendary cars are pretty cool.

    I bought Tetris Effect on ps4 and barely played it so I'm hoping the switch version is fun.

    Tetris Effect Connected is fantastic. It runs at 60fps with very slight frame drops and sounds amazing. I need to update my firmware so I can use bluetooth earbuds but just the speakers alone is like wow. So haunting, atmospheric, and relaxing.

    Months-later review of Mario Golf Super Rush. I still don't really care for the main new mode (Speed Golf) and I've barely played the other new mode (Battle Golf). But... there is enough here with just the standard old fashioned golf mode to make this game easily worth my purchase. The online ranked mode is good, although the 3-hole matches are very short. I can see why short matches prevent people from quitting but I would prefer if they were at least 5-hole matches. The gameplay mechanics (swing, spin, curve etc) are solid. The course designs are not the best (I think there are ways they could have made them more interesting) but now that they've added 3 new courses via free DLC, I can't really complain about the courses.

    There are features I wish they added like being able to set up a bracket-style tournament, or even having normal tournament play in story mode. I definitely wish story mode was more like Mario Golf for Gameboy instead of a 5-hour tutorial on how to play speed golf.

    But all in all, it was $60 well spent and I'm still playing it regularly. If anyone wants to play a round online sometime, hit me up.

    Nintendo online expansion pack will be $50 a year. I don’t think that’s too bad, not even five bucks a month

    It’s not bad but the regular rate is $20 per year so that’s a pretty significant hike (double and a half) to get the N64/Genesis games.

    They should have went with $40. They're not Xbox or Playstation.

    Is that also the price for the family plan? That's a bit more palatable, but 60+ will stave me off.

    Family plan is $80. $50 is the single user price.
