Well, Wii channel is finally closing down at the end of January 31, 2019. After March 28, 2018 it will be impossible to purchase Wii points though.

Apparently Illumination Entertainment (the company behind Despicable Me, Minions, and Sing) is in talks to develop a Super Mario Bros animated movie.

Pokemon Ultra Moon is pretty much the same game but harder it seems, making it well worth the price

[Lance.Uppercut]

I'm finally burnt out on Mario Odyssey after playing it for nearly a month straight, and I enjoyed it quite a lot. I hope the Switch picks up more steam past this holiday season and delivers on some more AAA content. At least the new Xenogears will help push sales through the holiday.

[deadname]

"AAA content" what are you, some kinda marketing drone

[Tromboon]

Was never a Nintendo guy, I've played some Zelda: Ocarina of Time some years ago, but we have a Switch and I've been playing Zelda Breath of the Wild like crazy. Wonderful game, it's wonderful to see and hear a Japanese take on fantasy open world games that really really gives its all. This is what I would have liked Skyrim to be!

Let down that Spla2n didn't have a splitscreen co-op mode. aaarrrrgh I bought it and just sort of assumed it would have.

[korusan]

I'm going to get into Pokemon VGC (the official Nintendo competitive branch). It's double battle format - never really done it before but it'll be interesting to try out!

Little late posting about this, but after being underwhelmed by the first round of Zelda DLC (l still haven’t even beat the trial of the sword — so fucking frustrating when you get killed deep into it and have to start all over), the new wave of content is pretty amazing and has given me at least like 30 more hours of enjoyment so far. l love just wandering around with the korok mask on finding like 5 seeds in areas l thought l had already covered. Plus the new main quest is fairly massive. l wish I’d have been able to keep that one-hit weapon tho. Even if it took ages to recharge it would be sweet to get lynels with that. Anyway l highly recommend it

Picked up Hellblade and Darksiders they turned out really good.

I know I'm also late saying this, but Nintendo have announced a lot of things for Mario's 35th anniversary, including yet another port of Super Mario Bros, a 3d game collection (SM64, SMS and SMG1), Some Super Mario Battle Royale and a separate Super Mario 3d World port, alongside the only new content of the release on a physical copy, Bowser's Fury

Never played Sunshine and only played through Galaxy once, so I'm definitely getting 3D All Stars. Galaxy 2 really should've been part of the collection. I used to believe that if the Galaxy games ever got remakes, they should make a combination of 1 and 2, using the best of both games, cutting out the filler stars. I think here would've been a good chance to do just that, or just include Galaxy 2 as is. Not sure how much more it would've costed to port another Wii game, or why they would hold out on Galaxy 2, but hey, I'm still buying it anyway, so they win.

Not getting 3D World, but I'm glad it finally got ported. I wanna say that and Pikmin 3 were the last of the major Wii U exclusive titles that finally got on the Switch, so good for everyone who doesn't own a Wii U (aka @Everyone).

[Sandurt]

I am playing through all the older Mario Games on my switch, and holy shit so much nostalgia I can't wait to see what Nintendo is gonna do

[Trab Pu Kcip]

I think they're gonna do a slight remaster of 64, as for Galaxy and Sunshine, it's mostly a port to switch.

[Walid]

I have been wanting to replay Super Mario 64 for years; one of my all-time favorites. As soon as this was announced I pre-ordered it. As soon as I got off work last night, I checked it on a whim; I got home just after midnight, so maybe it'll be on?

already about halfway through '64 and I am loving the hell out of it. never played Sunshine or Galaxy and I am beyond excited to give those a go.

the whole thing just makes me so happy; one of my all-time favorite games, if not my all-time... and two other games I've heard nothing but praise for{well, in Galaxy's case; Sunshine seems to be a bit more mixed}.
