Top 10 must plays

Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Splatoon 3
Metroid Dread
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Luigi's Mansion 3

I included SM3DW because Bowser's Fury is its own brand new thing. Also I would definitely say BotW, but it did release on Wii U so technically not Switch exclusive. So instead placed Smash.
TopicSo Nintendo won because they finally showed a game they announced 7 years ago??

I felt equally happy seeing a real new Perfect Dark trailer too even though it was teased years ago. Metroid Prime 4 and new Perfect Dark basically count as true reveals this time around. Teasers like a logo or some total mock up count halfway.

I was being extremely kind to some of those genres. Play a dubstep track from 2016 and it could fit into a DJs set in 2024. The same could not be said if you took a dubstep song from 2011 and played it in 2016.

Play a Drake song from 2015 and it feels modern. Only its almost 10 years old.

Play an Episode of Workaholics from 2011. Everyone is wearing clothing youd see today. Everyone is making jokes youd hear today.

You could be using a 2012 Macbook Pro and someone might think its the latest release.

I could name so many examples of how much our tech, culture, and society has stayed the same for a decade plus.

Dubstep from 2016 compared to 2024 is way more different than 2011 to 2016. There's been the rise of briddim (brostep + riddim), future riddim, colour bass, tearout, and freeform bass since 2016.

This gives me hard nostalgia and I'm getting close to 40 years old

As a kid my father mostly played 60's rock for me like the Beatles so they'e been my favorite band since forever. It's nostalgic to me despite being born two decades later.

Exactly me too. Beach Boys, Lovin Spoonful, Temptations, Sam Cooke, Petula Clark, etc.. 60s pop, soul, rock, (or what's lumped as oldies on the oldies format back in the 90s) is nostaglic for me. Literally grew up knowing about every song on rotation

Then 80s new wave and synth pop music is equally nostalgic whch I was getting more into around 2001 era. Vice City soundtrack nostalgic. Whereas my teenage years were in the 00s.

So I have nostalgia with older music than my Millennial generation which was 90s/00s . I have nostalgia for 90s/00s of course.

But guess what, I have recent nostalgia for 10s/20s. Pokemon Go theme, Fall Guys theme, Minecraft soundtrack, Fortnite season 2 or 3 main theme, etc..

There is no gatekeeping nostalgia lol

Nothing replaces a good forum, but each way has their strengths. Discord is good when it's a small passionate amount of users. Reddit is good simply for sheer amount of subreddits, but actual discussions unless in some good subreddits are like a popularity contest.

Dubstep is about as old in 2024 as Hip-Hop was old when Dubstep was starting

Hip-Hop is about as old in 2024 as Depression era Swing music was to when Hip-Hop was starting
