That is 5 pence more than I was willing to spend. It's only £14.99 on other platforms. Why should we need to pay 5 pence more for an old port?

@OorWullie @Grumblevolcano What an odd price.

On the NA eshop Rive is $12.75. That's weird for us.

@OorWullie That 5p covers the cost of the Mario, Luigi and Samus cars

@gcunit When you put it like that.... I suppose I could stretch to £15.04. Behind the sofa I go.

The #SwitchTax strikes again!

@NaviAndMii
I don't care with Switch Taxes.
As long i can get the games in PHYSICAL Retail, i will pay it no matter the price, as long the price is not too crazy.

Doom looks fun but I'm still too young to play M-rated games.

Don't change Anti Matter

I'll do anything for love, but I wont do that? @GrailUK

@BLP_Software You just made me spill my coffee.

Last week, Capcom confirmed it is developing Switch titles to be released after April 2018, including the Ace Attorney series. Today, Kotaku UK is reporting that three three Ace Attorney games are planned for Switch, citing two independent sources.

Two compilations are reportedly due out between April 2018 and October 2018. The first is said to be a compilation of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Justice for All, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Trials and Tribulations. And the second is said to be a compilation of Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Dual Destinies, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Spirit of Justice.

The third game is reportedly a new mainline entry in the Ace Attorney series planned for a worldwide simultaneous release on Switch and smartphones in late 2018. It is said to contain five cases at launch, and feature Phoenix Wright as the protagonist.

Key word is "rumor." Still, it'd be cool to see the entire mainline series on the Switch.

Sadly Pinball FX 3 will not be out tomorrow, as Zen Studios have hit upon a last-minute delay. The game will now be released in December.

That would be great. I only played the trilogy and did enjoy the 1st and 3rd game a lot. If the price is right I might double dippideedip.

@ the Zen Pinball news.....Ugh....figures.

I've never played any of the Ace Attorney or Phoenix Wright games, I've always wanted to though. Now I'll hopefully get the chance to.

Indie stores concerned as Nintendo delays shipments in Europe
_{The firm is closely managing the distribution of its products ahead of Christmas}

Basically, Nintendo are shipping products closer to the release date to prevent smaller retailers from breaking the street date release which will have knock-on effects. There have been examples recently of games shipping early. One user got banned from Youtube over putting up videos of SMO early.

@OorWullie The last few entries have been a bit... odd at times (still absolutely worth playing, though), but I'd recommend the original trilogy to anyone. Particularly the first and third games, which have some of the funnest characters and most interesting plots I've ever seen in video games.

I own most of these games, but I'd LOVE to have them all on one platform. Physical carts (I don't have my hopes up) would seal the deal for me.

If anyone complains about Rocket League costing more on Switch...I got news for ya.

Steam - £14.99
PS4 - £15.99
Switch - £15.04

So I hear XB1X sales matched that of Switch when it launched. I had seen a figure of 80,000 mentioned this morning. I don't know as I don't follow Microsoft or Sony. Came across this Tweet as well.

So is it a flash in the pan or could this impact on Switch long-term?
