Opinion seems split on just how soon a new one is coming. They're still doing seasonal splatfests I think through the rest of the year at least fwiw
imo it's worth it if you like the campaigns, but if you'd be buying it only for the online then at this point probably better to just wait for Splat 4

The weird move that'll (imo) hurt their game here is not even putting it on Switch 1.
It's a remaster of a 3DS game, not like it really needs the extra "oomph" of Switch 2

I SAY THIS EVERY DAY: THERE IS AN ILLITERACY PROBLEM THAT IS ONLY GETTING WORSE.
death to chatgpt for exacerbating the issue.
“Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate…Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate and having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”

genuinely, the execs that think there's no money to be made in games coverage in the Switch 2/GTA6 year just need to get out of the money-making business altogether

is Super Metroid the only Nintendo game with several dead bodies on the title screen?
It's weird how for years people 'joked' that Nintendo would try to resell you Switch games on Switch 2 at full price like they did with the WiiU library and instead ... Nintendo's kinda the only one that actually seems to be offering an upgrade path for Switch 2 Editions

I think some people have this idea that Mario Kart is a game people will pick up when they get a console, but not something they'll buy a console specifically for
But I really think that line of thought undersells how much pull "the first new Mario Kart in over a decade, and it's open-world" has
lmao. flipped off a cybertruck and the dude pulled over to the side and FOLLOWED ME IN REVERSE for more than half a block to yell obscenities before eventually telling me to "get a life" and driving away

it's real weird because it's just ... the video from Nintendo's youtube channel? Like straight-up. DF isn't even talking over it or anything, it's just Nintendo's video from two weeks ago on DF's channel
Like, sponsored content isn't new for DF. But WHY would they agree to host an actual ad?
Probably old news but has anyone pointed out the new Mario Kart keeps up the streak of sneaking the Super Mario Kart theme into its main song? [starting at 0:52]
