The fact this works is really cool, means the oldies could get involved and play no matter their eyesight. Glad that this game is more accessible to people than the typical gamer.
Not a fan of screen protectors, but I've got a pack of 2 tempered glass ones to use when the Switch eventually returns back in stock. Gotta keep that screen perfect.
Interesting, I didn't expect Nintendo to allow games to do this. Considering how they don't want to use hard drives as it'd mess with the core idea of the console.
Just to set expectations the joy cons in the bundle are the neon ones. Anyway, I'm very excited by this news and will be sure to pick this up at launch.
Still contemplating getting 1-2 switch at launch. On one hand I'd like a good multiplayer game that shows off the joycons, on the other hand I imagine it'll become rather cheap soon enough.
YES THANK YOU NINTENDOLIFE! Amazon UK changed my release date to MArch 4th after a payment method change and I was too worried to cancel the order and re-order as it was a huge risk if it would end up being delivered later. So thanks guys. My switchmas was saved thanks to you!
Already got my 128gb Micro SD as soon as I heard Nintendo Switch supported them. Pre-orders Zelda Breath of the Wild Limited Edition day one on Amazon as well as the Switch itself. Got a Pro Controller on the official UK store and a case, official adapter and Super Bomberman R off Amazon. I'm more than ready for this launch.
And I thought getting the three Regi's were bad. At least with them once you get a guide it's pretty simple. This is just tiresome and pretty dull. It's incredibly annoying when you're just missing one so you have to keep checking old areas to find it. I hope they don't do this again. Or at least if they do, have some kind of tracker to use in game.
I saw iJustine in the photo and I guessed how she must've been sponsored to do this. I swear she has like 10 3DS's at this point. Still this is pretty neat. I can't help but think how they would've had to download it before takeoff. And the lack of a charger + the ability to charge.
I like how I liked team flare more here than the entire game. If the game had more scenes like this team flare may have actually been interesting. Nice video though.
What an awesome gesture. 2016 may end on a bright note with this and star wars coming down the line. Hopefully 2017 will be far better with the switch kicking it off to a great start!
Already got my limited editions coming from the official UK store, they've dispatched so here's to hoping they'll arrive tomorrow! I'm pretty sure no one else would turn up to my local game because it's not exactly walking distance except for people in flats.
I guess what I find annoying about these ports... Is that they are such a middle finger to Wii U fans. The people who stuck by the Wii U are now also stuck with old versions of games. Put in a situation where we don't know whether to get the new versions or stuck with the old ones.
Well he did a great job with Deadpool. Plus having a guy with experience at blur studios is only a good thing. Check out Halo 2 anniversary cutscenes for an idea of what Blur can do.
The 3DS may be aging but the New 3DS could have some amazing new games if it's power was utilised. I can see one more set of Pokémon games. They did just make a new engine after all, plus it would allow them to understand the switch hardware for a new generation of Pokemon. There are games like Dai Gyakuten Saiban and Lady Layton which could be localised and be very popular!
@RainbowGazelle Okay, there's clearly not as much of a drought as I thought lol. But in terms of me Personally only a couple of games really intrigue me
Brain Training is seemingly confirmed then. I'm glad actually, I've always been a big fan of the DS games so I'll be more than happy to get the 3DS one. Plus, it only being £18 is really nice. It probably would help with the drought of 3DS games coming now.
This thing can support the engine Kingdom Hearts 3 is running on. I'd say that it is definitely is powerful! Games like skyrim on the go are gonna be very popular with the die hard elderscroll fans! As for me I can't wait for the system. It feels like the console the Wii U strived to be. Heck it makes the Wii u look really old in comparison! As someone who goes to school right now and has to get an hour's bus journey there and back, this is gonna be perfect for me. Oh and all those portable games that are gonna get HD graphics, Monster Hunter. Fire emblem! and POKEMON I can't wait to see what that looks like. I love the social side with the controller's. I can bring Mario Kart In to school and just pass someone a controller and play it splitscreen! Oh boy this looks amazing.
While I can't deny how this is nice. None of the rewards really attract me for some reason. Besides, not sure if I'll even get the game because of the lack of online.

Re: Video: Pokémon Generations Moves Into Gen VI With Lysandre and His Crazy Hair
