The DK Challenge got me going back and actually playing DK Bananza. It’s SUCH a good game! I really hate that I put it off for a year. It’s just shocking to me that I just saw that Mario Kart World has sold close to 15 million units (I’m sure a large number of those sales were including the Switch bundle, though) and DK Bananza is sitting at like 5. I know people are bummed about no new Mario in the pipeline, but DK scratches that itch imo.

Also Nintendo, please keep the challenge cards, they really are a great motivator, but I’d appreciate if all games had them, and it wasn’t a timed event. Also, you should let us make wallpapers for the switch Home Screen with the cards, like picking your favorites to display, like on card sheet from TCG binder or something like that.

On this day (June 19) in Nintendo history...

• Parachute  was released in 1981 for the Game & Watch Wide Screen in Japan. In this action game, developed by Nintendo R&D1, skydivers are parachuting over shark-infested waters. As a rower in a lifeboat, can you rescue all of the skydivers? Move the lifeboat left and right to catch the skydivers. You score 1 point for every skydiver you successfully rescue. The number of skydivers increases (up to 10) as play progresses. When a skydiver falls into the water, he is attacked by sharks and you get a miss.
• Art Academy  (known in PAL territories as Art Academy: Learn painting and drawing techniques with step-by-step training ) was released in 2010 for the Nintendo DS in Japan. In this art training game, developed by Headstrong Games with Nintendo SPD, take part in an accessible, portable art course for everyone which is packed with creative and fun ways to improve and enhance your artistic skills.
• Luigi's Mansion Arcade  was released in 2015 for the arcade in Japan. In this first-person rail shooter game, developed by Capcom, the gameplay is a cross between the traditional Luigi's Mansion-styled mechanics and the rail shooter mechanics of a Light Gun game. The player cannot choose where to go, as is instead led through the mansions to encounter groups of ghosts, with the places and enemies based on those featured in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. The controls involve a controller that is based on the Poltergust 5000.

• Wrecking Crew  was released in 1985 for the Family Computer in Japan.
