Winner Announced + Next Giveaway Revealed!
🕑 Added 2017-05-08 16:50:06 +0000 UTC Hey there, Nintendo Force fans! We've got some business to attend to!First up, we need to reveal the winner of our Second Switch Giveaway! This contest was open to everyone who was a patron here at Patreon.com/NintendoForce before the cut-off time for our most recent issue on April 16. The winner gets their choice of a new Nintendo Switch system or $300 worth of upcoming Switch games! And that winner is . . .
Caleb Barker of Willis, Texas!
Congrats, Caleb! I'll be in touch to coordinate with you about delivering your prize(s)!
If you aren't Caleb? No worries! We've got more giveaways coming your way, and as always you're automatically entered into all of them if you just keep your status as an active patron here. :)
Our next giveaway will be the "Element of Surprise" Giveaway! If you've looked at our main Patreon page in recent days, you've already seen that we're playing coy about what game's going to be on the cover for the upcoming Issue #28. Well, it's a surprise! The game hasn't been revealed yet. You'll have to wait until E3 to see the real cover revealed!
In that same spirit of surprise, we're offering as prizes for the next giveaway a winner's choice of any E3 surprise game. If it's revealed to exist for the first time at this year's E3 Expo, it's fair game to be selected as a prize for this contest!
What will we see there? Metroid Prime 4? Ice Climber 2? That 25th anniversary Kirby game on 3DS that Nintendo vaguely talked about in the Direct a few weeks ago? Anything could happen!
Three winners will be selected this time, increasing everyone's chances of having their name be the one pulled out of our virtual hat. You'll be in the running to win if you are an active patron by 10:00 p.m. Eastern on June 19, which is our next cut-off time to get on the mailing list for our next issue!
Hope you all are having a wonderful month of May so far, and I'll check back in with you soon!

P.S. If you haven't already been doing so, make sure you check out the Player's Poll contest in each new NF issue. They are separate giveaways that run in addition to the giveaways we have here on the Patreon page, and all you have to do to enter those is send in your answers to a few questions to fuel the next issue's Inbox section! Check out Page 6 of Issue #27 and send me an email, won't you? You'll end up with another chance to win your choice of E3 surprise games!

1. No I am not a fan of WaLuigi. For whatever reason, I've used Wario for most team Mario games and WaLuigi always seemed like a bad copy of what I consider a good Wario (Evil Mario) character. Most of it has to do with a lack of games or personality for WaLuigi, but regardelss I can't and don't use him in any game he exists in.

did you ever announce winners?
I am sure that there is one person who asked for Metroid Prime 4 as their prize.

So I won?!?!?!?! I was never contacted.

I LITERALLY FAINTED AND WAKE UP IN A POOL OF TEARS
Just joined! Super excited!
Super Mario Oddysey! Obvious choice, but I really like 3D Mario and video games are pretty expensive these days (about $60)
Brian Irizarry
Oh. T-rex Mario is neat too.
Brian Irizarry
I DON'T KNOW IF I LEFT A COMMENT ALREADY AND I'M STILL HYPED FROM YESTERDAY BUT PRIME 4!!!!!!1
New F-Zero game, Pikmin 4, and Metroid Prime 4.
Star Fox reboot, and it's going to be called simply "The Star Fox"
AutumnOkami
I'm gonna say Metroid
Bayonetta 3! A man can dream, can't he?
I hope a Animal Crossing gets released for Switch this time around. Not like how we got that board game spin-off on Wii U instead of a true AC game, ugh. If this doesn't happen, be sure to probably see a new DKC or Metroid Prime 4 game come out the pipe from RETRO
Oh baby please Metroid Prime 4!
KissMyFlapjack
Super Smash Bros for Nintendo Switch (most likely an upgraded port from the Wii U with new stages/characters and all the DLC)
Derek Freeman
If it's one of those 3 games mentioned, I sure as hell hope it's a new Metroid Prime. I don't really care for Ice Climbers, and we already have a Kirby anniversary game, unless it's a brand new game and not a compilation.
Pokémon stars!
Brian Irizarry
Not sure if we enter our guesses here or not but if my game comes to light, I don't even care about the prize. At this point, a return to glory would be all the gift I need. I'm talking about he return of Samus in a proper Metroid title. 2d, 3d. It doesn't matter to me. Just make me cry Nintendo. Happy tears only
Chris
Do we just add our guesses here? I think a new Animal Crossing for the Switch will be revealed!
The Nintendo Force
Then the winners will have to wait a while for their prizes! :p
Quick question, what if all the games revealed release in 2018, hypothetically speaking?

End bit seems to have been cut off, at least on mobile.
