Finally getting my new Micro SD card set up with everything copied across before Legends Arceus comes out on friday, won't have time to do it once that has come out! Looks like its going to take a while though.

Happy 3 year anniversary to this Nintendo video

Fucksake. Saw the thumbnail first, then read what you wrote.

Ah, yes. Three years to the day Metroid Prime 4 restarted development. Wonder if we'll see anything of it this year.

I think we're finally in "might see it this year territory" at the very least

I’m not sure whats happened when I’ve copied my stuff across, all 125GB (ish) has copied over fine yet for some games it needs to download some stuff again whereas others its fine? Mainly seems to be my digital games that haven’t carried over (despite the overall file size on the card seeming to show they are on there) rather than any physical games I’ve got. Odd, just setting loads of stuff to download now which is why I opted to copy the data over rather than starting fresh

Could it be updates and not the actual games redownloading? Not sure if that’s a thing

I think thats what it was, although now my current 400GB SD card (which I had about 360GB usable) is now at 143GB free after transferring stuff over from the internal storage as well, so I’m still somehow using more space than I was before? I honestly have no idea, I can’t see me using the rest of the space up but if I ever run out of space I’ll just delete older games rather than get a new card again

Beat Mario 3D World with every star, flag pole and stamp (except for the ones you get for beating every level with every character because F that noise).

I was on a semi packed silent train carriage. Some nice American tourists came on and were talking loudly - I could see they were getting some looks and they seemed unaware it was a silent carriage and I said in a very polite way 'hi guys, I personally don't care but just so you know this is silent carriage' (genuinely didn't want to be a dick, which is exactly what a dick would say, I don't care about noise and I wasn't confrontation- but they were unaware and I would want to be told if it was me and they thanked me. If they chose to not quiet down I wouldn't have said anything again). I put my headphones on and about 1 minute after this exchange I accidentally screamed a loud 'YEEEESSSSSSS' as a pure expulsion of joy for beating Chapions Road after like the 30th attempt

Great game I think I actually like it a little more than Odyssey (one of the best games of all time). Its Mario distilled to his purest essence and the most fun I've ever had with a Mario game. The pre-credit levels are a little bit too easy, but is probably the right difficulty for a four player casual game. Proper ode to platforming, full of ideas and interesting game mechanics and never lingers on one idea long enough for you to get bored. I like Mario with single overarching themes and give you a sense of place- this game doesn't have one but for a game that doesn't push the system or even the previous generation Wii U - it does look beautiful - I really like the overworld maps (especially World Bowser). The cat-suit is a great power-up too; way more interesting than the usual power-ups which often seemed to be some variation of hovering / flying. The more challenging post-credit levels that require tighter and more precision play are where the game really comes into its own. FWIW found champions road way more challenging than the final level in Odyssey. I really loved this game

Well done, great achievement. Now try doing it in 4 player co-op

So Retro are advertising roles to help with development on Metroid Prime 4 today.

I'd say that's a solid guarantee it's not coming out this year.

But on the flip side that's also a solid guarantee that it's still being worked on.
