And that's still not everything! There are loads of smaller changes, fixes and extras on top of this list.

Getting here was not an easy task, and it took a lot longer than we ever wanted. Thank you so much to everyone who waited and believed in us. This update is for you!

The success of this game tells me there is a demand for futuristic racers again.

Nintendo has kept F-Zero on ice this whole time, opting to have Mario Kart be its racer.

Aside from being a playable side character in Mario games, princess peach has only had 2 solo games: Super Princess Peach and Princess Peach Showtime. I've seen a general consensus of being unsatisfied with these titles due to being too easy, having a lack of depth, or just plain boring compared to other Mario titles.

Which genre of game do you want to see Princess Peach star in?

For me, a puzzle-ish platformer that makes use of her float, parasol, and even turnips would be super fun to play in, playing similar to Celeste.

Though for the demographic of her fan-base, I think an open world RPG style like breath of the wild could be appealing.

What are your thoughts on her current place in Nintendo games and her future going forward?

On this day (October 15) in Nintendo history...

• Pokémon Blue  was released in 1996 for the Game Boy in Japan. In this role-playing game, developed by Game Freak, you begin your journey in Pallet Town as a young boy. After a dangerous brush with wild Pokémon, Professor Oak teaches you how to capture Pokémon, and then sends you on your way as a fledgling Trainer. During your journey through Kanto, you must capture Pokémon to record their information in your Pokédex, as well as become a better Trainer by competing in Gyms scattered throughout the region.

What are you favourite memories of these games? How do you think they hold up today? Hash it out in the comments.

>Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen enriches the dynamic fantasy world and expansive adventures of Dragon's Dogma 2 with unforgettable new tales and thrilling encounters.

>Available for the first time, the Nintendo Switch 2 version contains both the Dragon's Dogma 2 base game and the Dark Arisen Expansion content!

My idea is they would work like the Ice Climbers, though since the Mario Bros. have different models from each other, they can't have alternate costumes that alter who's the lead Bro like what the Climbers have. So, I think Mario will always be the lead Bro and Luigi will always be computer-controlled like the second Ice Climber.

They could also incorporate plenty of Jump and Hammer attacks into their moveset, with a footstool dealing damage and Meteor Smashing airborne enemies.

This is gonna be a generational game imo

Why are they still hiding adult Zelda’s design tho?? OoT Zelda’s design is my fav I wanna see her :(
