Now that the dust is settled, I think 2021 will be the Switch's second best year for me (Best being 2017).

I guess my ranking would be

1.) 2017
2.) 2021
3.) 2019
4.) 2018
5.) 2020

You know... the part that got me and my friends more excited yesterday was Mario Party Superstars.
Want to know why? Will be the first game from Nintendo officially localized to PT-BR.

Than, today Brazil started a campaign not to only thanks, but also to ask Nintendo for more games localized.
Some ERA users also shared the tweet among influencers, so I like to thank you all.
Awesome! I hope it leads to more.

I feel like Metroid Dread is a bit underrated in terms of legitimately being a Shenmue 3, Final Fantasy VII, or The Last Guardian tier megaton.

This is the most positivity surrounding the word Dread we'll ever see

I feel like Metroid Dread is a bit underrated in terms of legitimately being a Shenmue 3, Final Fantasy VII, or The Last Guardian tier megaton.
The amount of "oh well it's not mp4" smgdmfh, disgusting level of disrespect, I bet they're only hyped for mp4 because it hasn't been shown.

Been thinking about this all day. And we aren't even that far from getting to experience it.
I can already feel time slowing to a crawl

They really nailed everything didn't they?
They delivered everything we wanted from a new 2D Metroid, I can't believe it

Curious why 2018 is so high for you. I love Smash and it's one of my most played games, but 2018 was pretty lacking for me. What stood out for you?
Smash was a huge deal for me because it was the first smash game I played since Brawl, which I didn't own, and my hype was above the roof. I also adored Nuclear Throne for the Switch, Hollow Knight, Bayonetta 1 + 2, Celeste, Gris, Dark Souls Remastered and Baba is You.

I think one of the most impressive things from E3 is how many insiders got killed/exposed lol. For example, Verg said/teased Master Chief for Smash but that didn't work. Another example is that small parts of the Spaltoon community on Twitter were pissed off from Samus leaker for saying Splatoon 3 would be at E3 lol.

Man, this past month was too much in terms of rumours and drama.

Totally forgot about some of those. Very solid Indie year

AND, judging by what the Treehouse people were saying, this will be more hands-off than Samus Returns was.

First impression is they really knocked it out of the park with this one.

2018 get's a lot of hate - mostly due to the heavy Wii U porting taking place in the first half of the year. But there was a good amount of great releases, outside of Smash -

Hollow Knight, Celeste, Octopath Traveller, Overcooked 2, Gris, XC2: Torna.

These are all games that would rank high on my all time top list on Switch.

andy robinson still believes nintendo will announce WW+TP remasters. Thoughts?


I guess that if so many people believe they exist, then they will come out eventually. But it's odd that Nintendo isn't planning to release them for Zelda's Anniversary. Maybe BOTW2 was so badly delayed that they decided to scrap any meaningful Anniversary plans, the remasters can come out like summer next year, or as we move closer to BOTW2's actual launch date.

I never took the whole "nothing else planned" to apply to 2022. Similar to Mario's shtick, the following year will host more shenanigans than the anniversary marker itself.

Apparently hardware spec thread is very serious business and after being shut down for trying to do some bad math at 11pm at night, I've lost a lot of motivation to further participate there, and also the energy to respond to those who took the time to respond to my inane ramblings about a lacklustre E3 presentation. I did enjoy the conversation, though. Thank you for those who helped give me some new perspective when viewing Nintendo with a critical lens.

Could also be the lack of sleep from a sad dream last night.

Those of you who have taken breaks from Era, what made it easier? I swear the only internet I consume these days is Era, Fb, and Instagram. Used to be GoNintendo as well until recent events. I do want to game more, try and really dive back into this hobby and maybe clear some more backlog. I'm just feeling a little...bleh, and I want to see if disappearing for a while (save lurking the Discord on occasion) will help improve my mental health as of late, giving me a chance to focus my energies elsewhere to something more productive, or at least less stressful.
