Check it out. It's probably the most corrupt sleazeball politician of all time whom has no brain left, coupled with a chick who says she's black but is actually Indian who used to keep people in prison past their release date to use as slave labor. YAY!!!

That Mario Kart live thing seems very cool and very much like something kids would tremendously enjoy (and pester their parents into buying). Those carts better come with a built in lithium battery though.

Not as bad as Obama who was white claiming to be black, to be fair.

Super Mario 3D all Stars is real! Grinning👍



Super Mario Galaxy 2 not included. Sad

Pretty crap compared to the original all stars.

However if its a choice between buying a new game like Paper Mario Origami King or this collection I choose the new game. For the moment (will I ever buy Astral Chain?)

Then why haven't you bought Paper Mario?

Okay I'm still thinking about what Nintendo is going to have for the holiday and I'm going to go out on a limb here. I think they've got a huge release ready to go. Maybe Breath of the Wild 2. But they've been holding the announcement back so they can announce it around the time Sony and Microsoft finally announce the price for their damn consoles.

and just to remind you of the timeline we live in, these consoles are set to launch in about 75 days and we still don't know the price.

My sister, who's son, is as casual of a player as you can get , was talking about getting a PS5.  I responded that they haven't even announced the price yet, which could mean that it is actually a very pricy console.  She declined after that.

*Crosses fingers* Prime 4, please.  Retro doesn't need a lead producer.

That's something I don't really get. Prime 4 has been under development for almost 2 years now right? Maybe a little longer? I know next to nothing about game development, but that's got to be over halfway through with the development. Wouldn't you get a lead producer earlier than this? Maybe that's just fake news.maybe that's just fake news.

I hate to say it, but the game may be in development hell.  It's changed developers because Nintendo wasn't satisfied, now it's been with Retro and not a peep.

They should make Metroid Prime Pinball 2. I'd buy it.

Nintendo can't profit off of one copy sold.

So far I'm about 3 hours into Hollow Knight.  It's entertaining.  Not sure if it'll be able to stay interesting for the 30-40 hours it apparently takes to beat.  I'm also not finding it terribly hard at the moment, but I'm guessing that there's still plenty of time for it to ramp up the challenge.  So far I'm sorely missing a double jump.  I got the dash, but it's just not the same.

I bought the Switch VR expansion sets.  I found them both for €5 each, RRP being €20.  I figured that for that price they'd be worth it even if we only build them and never actually play the games.

The difficulty will get there, as will the double jump. Once you find the Dream Nail, which you should be getting soon if you haven't already, things will start to ramp up.

A lot of the harder parts are also optional. The first time I beat the game I think I had completed only about 70% of it. there is still no shortage of really hard spots that you have to go through just to get the minimum done, but you could hypothetically go through the game and still miss the majority of the vicious spots. You'll also get the lame-o ending.

Then why haven't you bought Paper Mario?

cause I'm still playing Animal Crossing and burning through 3 resident evil games. Also gonna get the trine collection as its super cheap. Tbh the 256gb sd card means I can stock up on great deals so I'm more likely to buy those. Also, now I'm kinda leaning towards getting the Mario collection before Origami King....
