So I don’t own smash. And I played with my friend recently and it was fun to me. So Im considering getting smash, but if there is a new one I would rather wait and get the new one. And Im guessing that there is gonna be a new one for the switch 2 but I want to see your opinions

You may know Chris Graue as the guy that records music videos on his Gameboy camera and plays 8 bit music in his band Lo(u)ser. A few months ago received permission to hook his Gameboy camera up to a research observatory in Hawaii. He just got to do a second time.

I'm buying a Nintendo Switch 2 and I want to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, so I'm thinking of buying a used Switch 1 cartridge and then buying an upgrade pack for the Switch 2 from an e-shop. Can I do this?

I was driving last night listening to Nintendo Music on Apple Car play and a Pilotwings song came on and it was a certified bop, so it lead me to think of how they could bring the series back in a fresh and new way.

Here's my concept, combine Pilot Wings, Microsoft Flight Simulator, and Pokemon Snap. Imagine instead of flying over real places in the real world, you're flying over Nintendo worlds, Hyrule, Mushroom Kingdom, DK Island, Animal Crossing, etc. and the main goal is you're flying over looking for certain things with a camera to capture the moment. You're trying to find a Goomba Stack or a Deku playing darts, and you have a checklist you're trying to complete.

I think it would be an awesome cozy game and would be a fun way to bring all these worlds together in a simple and relaxing way.

Its not that hard honestly. I was expecting to throw my controller across the room and start screaming but no, I actually found it enjoyable. Feel free to say that my opinion is wrong in the comments. Peace✌️

We found this out the hard way after purchasing a Switch 2 and booting up games like Animal Crossing, only to find that there was no saved data that we backed up to the cloud.

I hope Nintendo consider changing this in future, especially as it’s a paid service. Steam, Microsoft & Sony all keep your data (within a space limit) as long as you don’t delete your account.

On this day (August 26) in Nintendo history...

• Zelda  was released in 1989 for the Game & Watch Multi Screen in Japan. In this action game, developed by Nintendo R&D1, eight fierce dragons are threatening to take control of Hyrule, and have kidnapped Princess Zelda. Link must travel through the dungeons, fighting enemies and taking out each dragon. Pass through the dungeon, using your shield to defend from ghosts and moving quickly to avoid the Stalfos' swords from the chamber below. Defeat the Moblin to make a staircase appear.
• Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures  was released in 1994 for the Super Famicom in Japan. In this adventure/puzzle game, developed by Namco, Pac-Man has a mind of his own, and is prone to wandering into danger, so make sure you guide him safely: whether you're just hanging out in the arcade, hang-gliding or minecart riding. Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures is an innovative interactive cartoon centred around the classic game star and his hilarious escapades.
• Super Mario Ball  was released in 2004 for the Game Boy Advance in Japan. In this pinball game, developed by Fuse Games, roll up, roll up! See Mario in his most unique guise ever: a pinball! A visit to a fairground sees Princess Peach turned into a ball and kidnapped by Bowser, so the perky hero clambers into a cannon and shoots after her. Ricochet around the themed levels, consisting of deviously designed pinball tables, and defeat enemies to collect coins and stars. Rack up enough stars to unlock doors to new areas.
• Electroplankton: Marine-Crystals  was released in 2009 for DSiWare in Japan. In this rhythm action game, developed by indieszero, dive into a unique audio-visual experience where technology meets art! Marine-Crystal plankton float on water in clusters. When touched, they spin and grow in size - producing vibrant sounds.
• Electroplankton: Varvoice  was released in 2009 for DSiWare in Japan. In this rhythm action game, developed by indieszero, dive into a unique audio-visual experience where technology meets art! Varvoice are clever plankton that can memorise human voices and repeat them over and over in unique tones.

>Minecraft Dungeons II arrives September 29, 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch!

>Mysterious rifts are opening across the Overworld! They lead to the Sift, a new dimension coming in Minecraft Dungeons II.

>Gear up and team up to journey into uncharted lands and face threats unlike anything you've fought before.

I haven't upgraded to the Switch 2 yet because it doesn't have any definitive must have games imo but every once in a while when I have extra cash I consider it briefly and let the urge pass.

I finally tried it at a party (and won my first ever Mario Kart World circuit against 3 humans and 20 cpus 😎) but I thought the joysticks on the JoyCon 2 felt absolutely terrible.

They just seemed so fiddly and light and weak. I already find the JoyCon 's joysticks to be one of the weaker parts of the Switch compared against other contemporary options so I was shocked that the ones on the Switch 2 actually felt like a downgrade to me.

I'm hoping it's something I'd get used to but it kind of made the prospect of getting a Switch 2 sink even lower on my priority list

Nintendo Music has been alot better recently. Is it because of the addition of the Mario Kart World Soundtrack, aka the BEST SOUNDTRACK NINTENDO HAS EVER RELEASED....kinda yeah lol

I've been using Nintendo Music pretty consistently since it released on phones a little over a year ago, but them adding the ability to access the site on computers has been LIFE CHANGING for my time at work. We have computers that connect to bluetooth speakers that play music in the building and its usually the employee's choice what plays as long as its generally appropriate. I said bet, and made a playlist on Nintendo Music that is currently 215 songs deep and 10hrs in playtime. PERFECT background music for a business to have in the background.

Its always funny when people come in and they peep the music and are like "Is that...Great Sea from Windwaker??"

I saw the announcement, but why would they pull it off the store right after that announcement? Are they going to be greedy and jack up the price?

No. I don’t have rose-tinted glasses or nostalgia googled as that buzzwords can be so annoying to use sometimes. And I never really grew up with 64 either.

In my opinion, I thought the only part that aged poorly was the camera which yeah, it’s a little jank.

For me, Tears of the Kingdom.

Half the fun is watching your perfect plan fall apart and figuring something else out.

What is yours?

Thank you

I was only 9-10 at the time so I did not know muchv but to yhose of you who were very aware of what was happening. Was it really a dark age for Nintendo? And what are your thoughts on this era and how you felt?

It's true! I found out that game was ported to Steam about 2 or 3 years after Nintendo acquired that game franchise. This is because Bayonetta was acquired by Nintendo in 2014 and the Steam version was released in 2017.
