In case you missed it, Donkey Kong Bananza has been out for a good bit. It's an absolutely excellent 3D platformer by every metric, feeling a lot like Nintendo's answer to the equally excellent Astro Bot and serving as the killer app the Switch 2 has been missing, even if...

The Great Nintendo Price Hike (I leave it to future historians to come up with a better name for this significant and extremely bizarre gaming industry moment) evidently hasn't been working out for everyone. Precious few actual $80 games have been announced or released thus...
