@garydbz25 Absolutely agree, it's a superb game and unless you play a 60fps racer JUST before playing this, you'll not really notice the 30ps. It runs very nicely.
@Indominus_B I'm not one to be fussy about frame rate, in fact I find it quite annoying that modern gamers have such an obsession over it, but its very easy to tell a difference between 30 and 60 FPS. Doom and Wolfenstein 2, both of which I own on the Switch and also the PS4. The difference is absolutely noticeable in the smoothness of the movement. That said, if you come home from work in the evening, and started playing a 30fps game instead of a 60fps, you are not going to give it much thought at all.
@jarvismp Mate I'd say just open a Japanese account and do it that way. It'll take no longer than ten minutes total, including buying the code and starting the download.
N64, to me at the time, seemed to be a console for kids at a time when I was approaching my mid-teens. I remember my then best friend getting an N64 and I had opted for a PlayStation. I did look down on him a bit. But he was spoilt and his parents bought him a PlayStation too not very long afterwards. In conclusion: biscuits.
@Scottwood101 With the exception, in my opinion, of Brian Lara Cricket on the PS1. Holy shmoly me and my best mate had some epic test matches back then.
@retro_player_22 Yeah me too, I'll just put my pads on while I'm on the train and have an actual game of cricket. Or play in an actual Ashes Series. Good call mate.
@Welshland haha no problem, glad you found it. To be fair to you the menus aren't brilliantly laid out on that game are they, it's all a bit convoluted.
@Welshland No you don't need to have even touched the story.
Main menu > solo arcade > challenge > marathon > pick character > select 'settings' > switch endless to on, to play beyond 150 lines > confirm and play

Re: DOOM Eternal's Multiplayer Will Be Equally As Satisfying As The Single-Player Campaign
@Wavey84 Portability is a good reason, for me.
Re: Tetris 99 Physical Edition Confirmed For The West, DLC And Online Sub Included
@Bunkerneath Yes, absolutely true. Good argument for it being the greatest video game of all time as well.
Re: It’s Official: The Switch Online Service Has Surpassed 10 Million Subscribers
@DreamerAbe86 sigh If you say so, kid.
Re: It’s Official: The Switch Online Service Has Surpassed 10 Million Subscribers
@Mallow Well said.
Re: It’s Official: The Switch Online Service Has Surpassed 10 Million Subscribers
@DreamerAbe86 He used quite a lot of reason in there, to be fair. And he's right.
Re: It’s Official: The Switch Online Service Has Surpassed 10 Million Subscribers
@Shinnos With you on this entirely and in fact dumped PS Plus a while ago. Switch online is decent enough for the cost.

@blockfight Yep, same.

@DenDen It does reduce speed when you hit the AI, just not very much.

Re: Video: Can Team Sonic Racing On Switch Keep Pace With The PlayStation 4 Version?
60fps would have been nice but a solid 30fps is more than adequate. 4 player doesn't look too great though, but that won't come up very often.

I guess I'll get it digitally then.
Re: Team Sonic Racing Finally Gets A New Gameplay Trailer
@Matthew010 Because the internet gives some people a false sense of their own importance.
Re: Sega Mega Drive Mini Launches Worldwide This September
@iescalie1 The PS classic is amazing, with a bit of trickery.

Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Direct Summary - 13th February
Far too much nerdy fantasy stuff. That said though, Mario Maker 2, Tetris and Grid Autosport are quite exciting.
Shame about no SNES games.
