No, I'm from the UK. I'm not sure why mine added it later

weird, it seems its been there for some people and not for others. I only got the alert it was added last night

The music from Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet were just added

I did not buy many games released this year on Switch (outside of Paper Mario 2), instead, I mostly brought and played older games I missed like Metroid Prime Remastered. Or I jumped back into games I never truly finished like CupHead. Other then that, Fortnite is still the main game I keep going back to and I went back to Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed as they added new content throughout the year. I am quite surprised Mario Kart was my third most played game as I feel like I didn't play it much this year at all.

Illphonic made some cuts last week too:

Donkey Kong Land 3 was just announced and added to NSO:

The music for Splatoon 2 was just added. 105 tracks in total

Tetris is being added on the 12th:

I am enjoying WWE's new YT channel so much: There are so many great moments in this video never seen before. One of my favourite bits is Paul Bearer doing an entire promo only for Undertaker to raise his hand with a toy puppet on it as a prank (around the 3:10 minute mark)

As well as flu symptom, my legs became incredibly weak to the point I couldn’t walk for two days and I was consistently dizzy. I had these symptoms back during the pandemic but like you mentioned in you case, this time it was significantly worse. thankfully most of it seems to have passed today but I’ve tried to eat some food to find out I’ve lost my ability to taste.

I’ve never played it before and had a quick run through a couple of levels last night, it seems really good. I’m probably going to play through it entirely once my bout of covid passes

The music for Dr Kawashima's Brain Training was added to the app today

Donkey Kong Land 2 was just added to NSO

I got the N64 controller as it was on sale, but just my luck it went on sale the very week I let my NSO sub end and renewed down to the normal tier without N64 games. lol I tested it out on Mario 64 on the 3D Mario collection and it seems pretty good although I feel like the analog stick is much stiffer to move around. It feels like my thumb needs quite a bit of extra force to move it compared to any controller I have used before. I don't know if that is a case of me being used to my original N64 controllers analog sticks becoming looser over time, as they did, but I don't recall it ever being like that. Other then that, it feels good to use it and I am sure the stick will become easier to use over time.

Donkey Kong Country came out 30 years ago this week, which apart from making me feel very old, made me go back and re-watch this video which Nintendo gave out on VHS to promote the game: In America this VHS tape was given free to Nintendo Power subscribers. In the UK, if I remember correctly, it came free with a Football magazine and a friend at school got it that way and gave it to me. (It didn't come with Nintendo Magazine System as I brought that each month). To state the obvious, this came out at a time when there was no internet to see game trailers and you only saw a game actually running if it got a commercial, appeared on Gamesmaster or your local gaming shops had them running on a Kiosk or demo unit. So to see footage of a game running before owning it felt special. I was so hyped for this game that I must have watched this tape more then 50 times! The novelty of seeing the game in action added to that excitement, plus of course, the game looked incredible and fun so I couldn't wait to play it. Weirdly, the tease of Killer Instinct at the end of this video was removed from the UK version and replaced with some commercials for the Gameboy, which featured a talking brain in a jar.
