You could argue that the Virtual Boy was an attempt at replacing the Game Boy though so really it was only on the market for 6 years before a successor came along But yeah, 8 years of the Switch is crazy especially considering that there hasn't really been a downturn in success in all that time. The Game Boy ebbed and flowed through its life before getting a huge late boost when Pokemon came out but the Switch has really only started losing pace in these last few months - they have certainly done a much better job at its end of life than they did with the Wii U, Wii, Gamecube and N64. Also we're now less than a calendar month out from the Switch 2 Direct but I'm sure the original Switch will still have a presence in the market for the next 18 months or so -
Pre-orders for the game via the Pokémon Centre website will come with a plush of either of the starters: (note: you currently can't put a pre-order in with them at this time) Anyone else find it interesting that we still haven't seen this game's box art? I was kind of expecting it to come out following the Presents -

Crazy that the Aleck 64 lasted that long, also a really strange choice of hardware for such an arcade game; especially when you had so many PS1-based boards floating around that were cheaper and easier to develop for, not to mention Dreamcast-based hardware like the Naomi and Atomiswave that were both cheap and plentiful. Somehow Aruze making a puzzle game based on a slot machine mechanic is perfectly on-brand for that company; given that they largely traded in pachinko/pachislot games (not to mention buying up and killing off the original SNK for seemingly no reason). -
Don-Chan Puzzle: Hanabi de Don JP release: 2003 (Arcade) EU release: N/A NA release: N/A Developer: Aruze Publisher: Aruze N64 Magazine Score: N/A While the N64 stopped receiving retail games, the Aleck 64 arcade hardware still had a few more games to go. Hanabi de Don is one such title, and one of two of the remaining Aleck 64 games that also happened to get a Game Boy Advance port. Hanabi de Don is a colour matching puzzle game with a fireworks theme, that uses a slot machine as a main mechanic. You need to select the slot machine at the top to select your three tiles (I think they’re some kind of punching ball, but they look like bombs). You need to match up groups of these tiles, and also link a matching character title to actually trigger scoring. Getting rows of characters activated a special ability. Get a combo and you’ll fire some stuff in the air to set off fireworks, which pushes dud titles to the opponent. I struggled due to the colour issues (mainly matching the characters to the regular tiles), but it seems like a fun puzzle game. Fun Remake or remaster? If someone can get the rights for a collection of lesser known puzzle games, this would be a good one to include. Official Ways to get the game There is no official way to play Don-Chan Puzzle: Hanabi de Don
