Nintendo players share their weekend gaming plans
Developed over time first seen 2 months ago
Nintendo Life’s weekly feature asked its contributors and readers what they planned to play over the weekend, with Splatoon Raiders and Pokémon Pokopia among the most prominent choices. The post is primarily a community discussion, but it also reflects current interest in Nintendo’s games and upcoming releases following a relatively quiet news week.
Contributors discussed finishing or returning to Pokémon Pokopia ahead of its next DLC, alongside Go-Go Town!, Slay the Spire 2, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Splatoon 2’s Octo Expansion, Spartan: Total Warrior and Blazing Angels. One writer completed Pokémon Pokopia’s story after more than 95 hours, while the site also highlighted the forthcoming Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass, Super Mario Sunshine joining GameCube Nintendo Switch Online, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 receiving a Switch 2 Edition.

Nintendo Life is a website covering Nintendo games and its regular weekend feature lets staff and readers share what they plan to play. It is mainly a community discussion rather than a report on a major announcement.
Nintendo’s current games range from new releases such as Pokémon Pokopia and Splatoon Raiders to older titles being revisited through services such as Nintendo Switch Online. Games from the GameCube era, including Super Mario Sunshine, can be made available again for modern Switch players through that subscription service.
The discussion also reflects the mix of games associated with Nintendo platforms, including long-running series such as Pokémon, Zelda and Splatoon, as well as games made by other studios. These features can indicate which games are drawing attention among regular Nintendo players during quieter periods in the news cycle.
