It just occurred to me that during the Wii U and Switch era one of the big exclusives was always Bayonetta by PlatinumGames. Ninja Gaiden 4 on GamePass this year is just one more reason why Xbox has been killing it these days.

Donkey Kong was fun and overall enjoyable. But I think its a solid 8/10 at best. Its one of the easiest games Ive ever played, there are so many collectibles and bananas that collecting them feels arbitrary, and for the most part it never felt like obtaining the bananas required and sort of clever use of the mechanics in the game. Half the time you just come across them by accident.
Mario Kart I think is charming and the courses are fantastic. But I never even finished all of the cups. I think I did maybe 1/2 or 3/4 of them. Played free roam mode for a bit and found it pretty boring. Havent gone back since. Also, fortunately, it does not make me sick like MK8 did.
I have Kirby Forgotten Land + Star Crossed World coming up (I already owned it on the switch and never played it). Then just waiting for Metroid Prime 4.
The switch to me is a complimentary system anyway. I boot it up to play exlusives or NSO Classics and then it sits until the next exclusive comes around.

Had a big ole tax break, so I splurged and bought a Switch 2 which is due to arrive tomorrow. I got the Mario kart bundle. Not buying Bananza yet since I’m going to Japan and can buy that game cheaper there due to being able to buy games taxfree as a tourist, cheaper regional pricing and the Yen still being weak compared to the Euro (It’s almost 25€ cheaper there).

I’m kind of on the fence here. I got the Mario Kart bundle as well and I’m wondering if I should go all in on digital purchases on Switch 2 or go physical as much as I can. Wonder if I can finally trust Nintendo to keep backwards compatibility going in the future.

I don’t really trust Nintendo enough to go fully digital on their platform. That and physical games tend to be cheaper as well.
