@The64Master I personally think the online service's library of classic games will replace the Virtual Console. Most people probably hate that idea, but I honestly prefer it. I largely grew up with the N64, and later on the GameCube, so I don't really have much nostalgia for SNES games, barring a few exceptions, and no nostalgia at all for NES games, so I don't normally feel inclined to buy them. I just don't really like the games from that era, because let's face it, the vast majority of them are extremely dated and simple compared to what we have now, at least in certain aspects. I was planning to pay for the online anyway, regardless of the benefits, so being able to jump into some old games now and then instead of having to pay for them separately sounds great to me.
But hey, maybe they'll bring the traditional VC to the system, too. Best of both worlds.
@Tsurii The one on Coolshop is €399 for me (shipping costs presumably)... Anyway, I was just saying that since the games tend to drop in price, but the Switch doesn't, you may be able to find them cheaper separately. The Switch bundles I've seen are €60 more than the regular Switch. Kinda defeats the purpose of a bundle, but whatever.
@Tsurii Are the pink and green Joy-con included in the Splatoon 2 bundles for Europe? I thought it was just the red and blue ones for Europe while Japan and US got pink and green.
Welp, there goes my interest in Super Mario Odyssey. Fire Emblem Warriors has got a new mode confirmed called History mode which seems rather similar to Hyrule Warriors adventure mode. That mode led to me having bought but not played much if at all of these Wii U games that launched after Hyrule Warriors:
Bayonetta
Bayonetta 2
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
Xenoblade Chronicles X*
Pokken Tournament
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE*
*Got around to starting these very recently, the former because of the Miiverse closure announcement.
@Grumblevolcano
People really did love that Adventure Mode...
Fire Emblem Warriors is definitely in top form after the recent announcements. I'm certainly looking forward to it. But Odyssey will get priority when it's released. Then I can go back to FE Warriors/Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle/Splatoon 2/Monster Hunter XX/Metroid Samus Returns/Monster Hunter Stories. And if I have time some FIFA 18/Dragonball Xenoverse 2/Nights of Azure 2/NBA 2k18/Pokken Tournament

I don't think it's the final boxart as its missing Nicalis' logo. Finally available on a Nintendo console in my region, I hope. It wasn't released in Germany before.
Same for Ittle Dew. That one skipped the German Wii U eShop as well.
@JaxonH If it wasn't for the poor treatment of the Wii U version of Hyrule Warriors during the time the 3DS port was supported (only receiving characters and weapons rather than those as well as the Legend mode scenarios and Adventure mode maps), Hyrule Warriors would've certainly been my favourite Wii U without a doubt.
I tend to like games with lots of content the most. In general I'd much rather see a game get many years of DLC/update support than a new game in the franchise created for the same console as the previous one. So like I would much prefer Splatoon 2 to get many years support than for Splatoon 3 to come out around 2020.
Any fellow europoors able to point me towards cheap places for Switch? I'm planning to pick one up this month, most likely in the Splatoon bundle for 380€, but I still got a couple weeks before I get my monthly munnies and I wanna see if I can't find it for less money because I'm a cheapskate.
Or come to Ireland and buy it, we're awash with them. I wouldn't bother with the Splatoon bundle, it's a lazy expensive effort. They didn't even change the Joy-con colours.
