To be fair, Splatoon 1 isn't on Switch. I think some Splatoon fans like to go back to it sometimes for it's unique maps and weapons.

I think I preferred the first splatoon overall.

Now bring back miiverse!

2023 and the U is still a hot topic... magnificent!

It's good to see Kart and Splatoon back up for online play. No online charges required, either!

It's a sad moment for Club U. Going offline in April 2024*... the end of an era. But, hey, we have our memories plus there is still time to play! U is dead... long live the U! :toot: .

* Or possibly earlier, according to Nintendo:
"Please note that if an event occurs that would make it difficult to continue online services for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software, we may have to discontinue services earlier than planned."
:? .

All the more reason to bring the rest of the Wii U library to Switch

The Wii U is still a sales blockbuster in the US! :o .

In September, one Wii U console was registered as sold; the first since May 2022.

Could this be the start of a major comeback? Could Nintendo be re-starting manufacture of the system? I'm wondering if I'd better get prepared for a huge rush of new people wanting to join Club U :toot: .

I did contribute by buying two Wii U systems. The second one is boxed and unused!

Jawa's boxed and unused games library is larger than his played

I reckon we'll see TP/WW next year to pad out the schedule.

Maybe something like Woolly World too.

At one time I really wanted to see this happen... but it has been rumoured for so long now (over five years?) and my enthusiasm has diminished. I definitely don't think I'd be up for paying fifty wraps for each, either.

Yeah, WW/TP will be used to bridge the gap between now and the next new Zelda release. Maybe one next year and one in 2025, MP 2&3 should be next year also.
