[ Also, should I hold off buying Metroid Prime trilogy and super Mario galaxy on my Wii U :(? I haven't played either but will finally have time to play some games for thanksgiving weekend (okay I'll also have Pokémon sun...)

You should buy them because 1) they're all good to great games and 2) the Switch isn't coming out for months and odds are any Virtual Console stuff the system has will be bare bones and trickle releases, as is the traditional Nintendo method. Play Metroid Prime asap.

Nintendo Megamix Puzzle League

Exciting new mash-up game mode where the current theme dictates the BGM and obstacles you have to overcome.

When the game switches to Mario on the fly you have to deal with garbage blocks.
When Kirby comes up you have to deal with Candy blocks that need adjacent panels to line up
Zelda has more panel colors then the others
F-Zero speeds the panels up
Animal Crossing slows them down.

There's no 360/PS3 version, so the amount of work it would take to do it probably wouldn't be justified unless the Switch does really really well. Even then it's a toss up.

I can't wait to see when they announce that the Gameboy line in it's entirety will be end of life and shut down forever, and the traditional portable effort games you bought are now always going to be $59.99 no matter how much content they have in them because, "You can now play at home or not!"

Yes, this is coming.

For some reason Game Freak has been rather against Snap. If I remember correctly, they said such a thing wouldn't be successful in todays landscape when people asked for it to come on the wii u.

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 were DS games released a year after the 3DS had been out. At least the 3ds was backwards compatible but I wouldn't at all be surprised if the next couple of mainline games are still for 3ds

maybe because it was a garbage hour and a half long game that sold copies entirely on the premise of seeing your favourite pokemanz in 3d

Correction on what I stated: All triple A games on 3DS that sold for $39.99 will be $59.99 on Switch, and Gameboy will be end of life and you will not find software ports for those Gameboy AAA titles as it is being phased out. This obviously doesn't effect indie games and such. Which is to be expected, as the software will be written for one system and playable on both as the Switch is planned to be the home console and the new Gameboy so to speak.

Please, no, stop making my imagination run wild. I got really into Puzzle League/Tetris Attack this year and something like this sounds awesome to me.

You keep throwing around "Gameboy" like it's a currently existing thing and it's weird.

Yeah but now there like 800 of them and they have full 3D models already, as much more expansive version would be doable.

It was short, but not garbage. The core gameplay loop was good. Most people who remember it so fondly probably got it as a blockbuster weekend rental.

As much as I like Snap, This is pretty much the entire draw to the game. It was a shameless cash-in with a sticker printing gimmick until Stadium came out and actually let you play pokemon on the N64. (It even re-used the sticker machines)

That said, I still like the idea of the game and would like to see a revival of it. The game style is a minor distraction at best, but it's one we don't see often and would make a good digital only title.
