@OorWullie It was great that all the original music was in there too. Those songs still get stuck in my head years after I played any Outrun. My first version was on the C64 but I think I played it on my cousin's Amiga before that.
@quinnyboy58 But why is this info not part of a direct!? Very strange marketing decision. Game still looks poor tho, stylishly presented mini games?! Think I will pass...
My wishlist is getting very busy again. Now I need to find the money for this, monster hunter and diablo. Then I need to find the time to fit all of them in.
@Spoony_Tech That looks like a decent price. I've only had the Switch since November and have mainly stuck to smaller downloads buying the larger games on cartridge. I've come to like having them instantly accessible just by clicking them on the home screen and am planning on downloading exclusively from the Eshop when I can.
@JaxonH Just curious how much a 400gb SD card costs? I'm still using the Switch internal hd drive but I bought my 21st game this weekend and had to archive Paladins for the space.
I've always wanted to play Diablo but I've never had a PC and didn't get round to it on the PlayStation. I'm so glad it's coming to the Switch. There's something about playing games on a handheld device that makes it all the more magical for me.
I like the look of Mario Vs Rabbids but other than that I'm not a huge fan of Unisoft games. I don't enjoy Assassin's Creed although Black Flag was good. Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell online always seemed a bit buggy for me.
I've been playing Darkest Dungeon all week and into this weekend. It's quite addictive and has that 'one more go' vibe. I played a bit of Enter the Gungeon yesterday as well. I hadn't loaded it up for a few weeks so it took me a while to remember the buttons.
I really want this. The only things that concern me are how the battery copes with it in handheld and what kind of space it will take up on the SD card.
I remember the fights in the playground about Mario and Sonic. I was definitely team Mario. If only I'd known then what I know now I could have really rubbed their faces in it.
@Richard_Atkinson I used the wrong paint on our stairway. Not only is it really shiny it took about a week to fully dry. I can still smell it a few weeks later.
I've just bought this and after about an hour's play I think it's great. The dialogue seems fine to me and I actually laughed out loud after killing the first snake. The loot drops are fantastic and with such a big inventory I'm expecting quite a bit of variety. The way you have to light the torches in the castle is a nice touch too. Highly recommend for £8.99.
I've fallen in love with some of these indie games. I haven't had so much to play since C64 games were £1.99 each. I know there's a lot of shovelware but dig deep and you find some real gems.
@Fake-E-Lee I was exactly the same when I read co-op but the fact it has online (meaning I don't really need to interact with anyone) and that it sounds pretty good swung it for me.

Re: Emulation Specialist M2 Discusses Future Development Plans For Nintendo Switch
@Razer I can't wait for this. It's relatively cheap as well.
Re: Emulation Specialist M2 Discusses Future Development Plans For Nintendo Switch
I'd love Outrun on the switch. Coast to coast would be the one to remake.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 1st)
I've been playing Into the breach. It's very addictive.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th August (Europe)
Into the breach sounds good so I'll probably get that this week.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 25th)
I started playing The Long Reach yesterday as it's so cheap on the e shop. It's been pretty good so far for the price I paid.
Re: Review: Prison Architect: Nintendo Switch Edition (Switch eShop)
I'll get this if it ever goes on sale.
Re: Lifeless Planet Discovered On Switch eShop, Arrives Next Month
This sounds like a game I'll enjoy.
Re: Nintendo Was "Pumped" When Blizzard Pitched Diablo III For The Switch
I've always wanted to play Diablo but I've never had a PC and didn't get round to it on the PlayStation. I'm so glad it's coming to the Switch. There's something about playing games on a handheld device that makes it all the more magical for me.
Re: Rumour: Controller Icons Suggest Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered Could Be Switch-Bound
This had a pretty good online mode.
Re: Rocket League Is Changing With Its New 'Progression' Update Next Week
@aznable Perhaps they should do online and offline xp exclusively for use with each mode.
Re: Arcade-Style Co-Op Shooter RICO Scores New Trailer And Release Window
I'm interested. I like that it's got daily challenges and leaderboards.
Re: The Diablo III Physical Release On Switch Won't Require Any Downloads To Play
That's really good news. The only other thing I'm slightly concerned about is battery life whilst playing this game.
Re: Rumour: New Nintendo Direct Airing Later Today
I'm really enjoying all these independent games more than the AAA of late. There seems to be a lot more fun and addictiveness with them.
Re: Surprise! Saints Row: The Third Is Coming To Nintendo Switch
I was only thinking about how good Saints Row would be on the Switch this weekend.
Re: Diablo III Producer Explains Why Blizzard Wanted The Game On Switch
I'm really looking forward to this on the Switch.
Re: Video: Check Out The 2018 Indie Highlights For Switch Video Right Here
I'm going to get a few of these. Streets of rogue, Prison Architect, Bad North, Everspace, Terraria and more I've probably forgotten all looked great.
Edit: The spire one with the deck building. I'm getting that too.
Re: Ubisoft Will Not Release Rainbow Six Siege On The Nintendo Switch

Re: Site News: We Want Your Help To Become Even Better
@Lord I agree 100% on point 4. Although this weekend is surprisingly busy. For a weekend anyway.
Re: Blizzard's StarCraft Series Unlikely To Be Released On Nintendo Switch
@steve_1978 I love your profile picture.
(Please don't ever change it to a picture of yourself as my comment would still be here and I'd look odd)
Re: Ghostlight Becomes Certified Switch Dev, Ready To Bring Fantastic Games To System
I pretty much only get my news from here so wouldn't even know it was old news if I didn't read the comments.

I really want this. The only things that concern me are how the battery copes with it in handheld and what kind of space it will take up on the SD card.
Re: Random: Game Boy Title Terminator 2 Got Into A Pickle Over One Character's Small 'Bangs'
I had this on the Gameboy. I also had a cartridge adapter on the SNES that let you play Gameboy games on the big screen with a variety of borders.
Re: Fishing Game From Wii Generation Resurfaces On The Nintendo Switch
Im not a fan of attachments but a fishing rod sounds fun.
Re: Nintendo Has Sold Over 700 Million Video Game Consoles To Date
@carlos82 I only came into the comments to find one about whether the Switch is a home or handheld console 😆
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 11th)
I've been playing No Man's Sky (PS4) and Darkest Dungeon on the Switch.
Re: DOOM Eternal Will Raise Hell On Nintendo Switch
I wish they'd port over a Fallout game. Any one of them I'm not fussy.
Re: Haunted Dungeons: Hyakki Castle Brings Real-Time Dungeon Crawling To Switch This Month
That looks quite interesting. I can see myself getting lost in that for a few hours.
Re: New Tease Suggests Tactical RPG Series Langrisser Could Make A 2018 Comeback
It could be an omnibus of all the games to date.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 4th)
I've been playing kingdom on the switch and No man's sky on PS4.
Re: Review: Crush Your Enemies (Switch eShop)
Sounds like a fun little game. I missed how much it was though. Does anyone know?
Re: Feature: Sitting Down With Panic Button, Nintendo Switch's Most Important Third-Party Studio
@Equinox Fallout on the switch would be amazing
Re: Sega To Publish The Former Sony Exclusive Crash Bandicoot On Nintendo Switch In Japan
I remember the fights in the playground about Mario and Sonic. I was definitely team Mario. If only I'd known then what I know now I could have really rubbed their faces in it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th July (Europe)
I downloaded Paladins and Unepic this week. Having fun with both.
Re: Zelda-Inspired Adventure Game Minit Arrives On US Switch eShop Next Month

Re: Play As Parodies Of Top Movie Stars In Pixel Action Heroes, Coming To Switch Next Month
I'm usually put off with Minecraft style shooters but if this is cheap I'll buy it for a few games here and there.
Re: Nintendo Applies For Hogan's Alley Trademark In Japan, Could This NES Classic Make A Comeback?
@Tim_Vreeland That's a shame. I never had it on the nes but completed it on the Commodore 64.
Re: Nintendo Applies For Hogan's Alley Trademark In Japan, Could This NES Classic Make A Comeback?
I want teenage mutant hero turtles for the nes classics and castlevania.
Re: Thimbleweed Park Sales On Switch Predicted To Exceed Lifetime Steam Sales
I've fallen in love with some of these indie games. I haven't had so much to play since C64 games were £1.99 each. I know there's a lot of shovelware but dig deep and you find some real gems.

Re: Review: Mugsters (Switch eShop)
@ColePhelps1942 I'm currently away from my switch so could you tell me the price at the moment please?
