Tis sold, enjoy mysterious stranger! ❤️

I have a spare @wolfalicemusic ticket for the Royal Albert Hall gig in London if anyone is looking, listed via the official Ticketmaster resale process… secure.ticketmaster.co.uk/rs/1F006385E0B…

I'm not a sports guy but it seems to me that this kind of genuine unbridled emotional joy, generated by actual human achievement, and not data centers, is something we really need to see these days.

This thing has some surprising heft to it! I had the original Virtual Boy back when I was stateside many years ago; even if for the sake of nostalgia, it’s dang nice to have her back in some form. :-) #Nintendo

@Miodrag212 @MidnasLament27 @SuperSisi If you’re that negative on it, and not a big Nintendo fan, why did you buy a Switch 2 so early? (A sincere question, not trying to start an online argument.)

News ‼️ GameStop’s “Worst Game of the Year” award has been given to the Switch 2’s Welcome Tour. It was sold for $10 by Nintendo. Did you try it?

Two nights at The O2, round one tonight 🥲

@SuperCoolNeemz @Stealth40k 100%, not sure why people literally have to put it against BotW, which I loved, but TotK was fantastic IMHO… I personally loved that it felt like a sequel, we haven’t really got a lot of those in the traditional sense, and diving back into that specific world was fantastic.

@NatanaelPlaco @Stealth40k The fact that this and Animal Crossing were both on the GameCube, along with quite a few other gems, is simply and utterly sublime. (Those two and Eternal Darkness defined a period of time for me.)

@Stealth40k My favorite Nintendo game: Resident Evil 4

@TheHylian64 @Stealth40k I’m 49 and absolutely love TotK, ACNH, and FEA, so it’s not just younger folk!

@Stealth40k This has to be one of the worst Nintendo lists of all time. You can tell this was made by younger folks that got into gaming journalism by gathering some key old games that have higher Internet appeal and glaze some newer titles that aren't that amazing. TotK, ACNH, FEA... LMAO

@nin10doland Personally a massive fan of TotK, I honestly consider it so superior that I literally didn’t know there was a debate about it until recently… BotW was groundbreaking, and a good game, but for me personally TotK is the easy choice. (To each their own of course!)

This tears of the kingdom praise will never cease to confuse the life outa me man. The best Nintendo game EVER? A sequel that uses the same exact map with half-baked bosses and dungeons with little story?? I am so confused man, maybe it's just me.

It had to be done, but surprisingly quiet at the Nintendo Pop-up Store in London tonight… it was busy enough, but comfortably so without a wait to get in.

@aysuriaa @Davs_Plays Went tonight and surprisingly there was no wait, not sure how tomorrow will be though… I purposely made myself go today as I’m worried tomorrow will be a bit mad being a Saturday.

@Davs_Plays Do you still need to queue to get in? I am going on Saturday

3 hour queue for the Nintendo pop up store in London!

@spunti2g @Skyfops Judging by the second photo from another angle, I would actually just say that the dude has kinda weird hands? 🤷🏻‍♂️ (Weird being relative of course, but you can see from the other photo why it would look that way in this one.)

@Skyfops What is happening with his hand? 😉

I just spotted a test development iPhone in the wild 🤩🤩🤩

Quite a nice surprise from @wolfalicemusic to play out the end of Euros this evening, suited it perfectly, and many congrats to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 as the back to back winners! #Lionesses #Euro2025

It's home, again.

@Nintendeal They were slightly different here in the UK regardless, but I did see comments about the non-stickered box becoming more of a collector’s item as the presumed rarer of the two at launch… guess it’s just the “normal” bundle box now, but it’s still the better looking of the two.

Nintendo has sold through their initial stock of Switch 2 consoles that had a download code for Mario Kart World inside with a sticker applied to the box. They're now only selling the no-sticker version with no download code inside (but still a full download of the game).

@Stealth40k I was going to hold off for a bit, but all of the opinions and reviews had me do something I have not done in ages… I walked in and bought a game at physical retail tonight, since I didn’t preorder and didn’t want to wait for delivery, next day or otherwise!

I've heard from a number of people now that Donkey Kong Bananza is quite possibly the greatest 3D Platformer Nintendo has ever made. It takes the best of 3D Mario and mixes it with Donkey Kong Country. EPD Production Group No. 8 does not disappoint.

I assumed it was officially out, I knew it was soon, but on the way to the airport I stopped at a Target yesterday in Columbus, Ga., and they had #DonkeyKongBananza on sale; not sure if it would’ve been stopped at the register, but copies were out like any other physical game.

Proud to be the 9th 🐲 on @BackerKit for THE TRANSFORMERS Compendium Set. Thanks @Skybound …sformers-compendium-set.backerkit.com/community_shar… #Transformers

The BER airport food court is where dreams go to die.
