Sadly, I'm kinda happy, only as I will get a Switch and my Wii U is unplugged most of the time. May change my backer copy to PS4 then buy a physical on Switch when discounted, unless it releases near to the 11th of April on Switch.
@aaronsullivan Yeah, tbh I'd love both, a high end Nintendo would be amazing, but for getting my game time a top handheld would be awesome. I'm imagining BOTW fully playable on the go and that sounds awesome!
That's cool, got loads of the animal crossing amiibo on the cheap so may get some more use, whilst not iconic character's I'd argue they are some of the best designed amiibo.
Happy with the Steamworld price and as I hit the game discounted at the start and absolutely loved it, I'll happily get. May replay in hard first though. Such a good game, all the f2p stuff as well, also tempted by super punch out, I have the Wiimake but have been loving Snes nn3ds games, being a sega kid until the n64 it's a great reeducation!
Got it yesterday and I've found the controls fun. To each their own I guess though, I have struggled enjoying some of the more controversial Nintendo control options of recent years (Kid Icarus and Wonderful 101). Hope everyone who gets it enjoys it, felt really satisfying to me, but kept me engaged.
Good idea, even though I have all of them, I'd probably buy some again if cheap in future but I know they aren't aimed at me. Would definitely kick console off well if they come out with a number of decent NX exclusives.
@ricklongo Thanks, yeah I've downloaded via nintendo's fancy online system! Looking forward to it, will be my wind down after recently starting my first From Soft Game, Bloodborne. I miss 3D Platformers, glad indie scene is slowly switching to it!
@samuelvictor Yeah that's kinda the situation I get myself in! I try to limit my retail purchases but gaming across 3 platforms it doesn't help! If I get 5/6 hours out of this I'll be pleased.
@samuelvictor All sounds good to me, given the discount (and relative lack of Wii u games coming out!) think I'll download; I'll enjoy playing on the game pad.
Yeah I've put this on my credit card... Let's hope my balance will cover it! Glad to be able to give the heads up, hope all who want it get in before scalpers!
I'm certainly up for getting both, but I have a disposable income for this. I can certainly see more people struggling to buy both if they come around the same time. For me it'll come down to the games available, but that means I'll certainly get an NX, as I've never been let down personally by Ninty.
Great review. Can't wait to get this, can actually accept the unknown wait for FE because of this. Demo was great fun as well, best made demo I've played. Hoping they have pulled a Bravely Default in the 2nd half mind!
Still sounds good, might wait for a patch but if I fancy a good co-op session this'll be up there. @ThomasBW84 One day you'll convince people that a 6 isn't the end of the world! Nice well balanced review, thanks!

Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks Pack-In Title Because It's $299, Says Reggie Fils-Aime

@aaronsullivan Yeah, tbh I'd love both, a high end Nintendo would be amazing, but for getting my game time a top handheld would be awesome. I'm imagining BOTW fully playable on the go and that sounds awesome!
Re: Multiple Sources Outline a Portable NX With Detachable Controllers, Including a 'Base Station' for TV
Sounds good to me, I've got a ps4 and I'd love a dedicated high end portable as half my gaming is that way.
Re: Autumn Animal Crossing: New Leaf Update To Bring amiibo Figure And Card Support
That's cool, got loads of the animal crossing amiibo on the cheap so may get some more use, whilst not iconic character's I'd argue they are some of the best designed amiibo.

Great additions. Got Runbow but that was worth its admission anyway. Hope this encourages purchasing of their dlc as this is insane value.

Re: Nintendo Download: 24th March (Europe)
DKC's for me! Love the NN3DS emulations and thankfully hadn't bought most of these before (or if I did I did at very cheap prices).
Re: Talking Point: Sony's PlayStation VR Launch Adds Pressure to Nintendo's Holiday - and Perhaps NX - Plans
I'm certainly up for getting both, but I have a disposable income for this. I can certainly see more people struggling to buy both if they come around the same time.

Re: Review: Bravely Second: End Layer (3DS)
Great review. Can't wait to get this, can actually accept the unknown wait for FE because of this. Demo was great fun as well, best made demo I've played. Hoping they have pulled a Bravely Default in the 2nd half mind!
Re: Site News: Welcome To The Brand New Nintendo Life!
Congrats on the redesign!
Re: Nintendo Shows Off the Continuing Growth and Popularity of amiibo
Only planned on getting a few, got over 30 now. I like em and only buy for the figure, not the unlock (even though I have most games).
Re: Review: Shadow Puppeteer (Wii U eShop)
Still sounds good, might wait for a patch but if I fancy a good co-op session this'll be up there.
