@RupeeClock it's currently averagin 88 on metacritic based on 10 reviews. £5.30 on the Russian eshop

@Ulysses it's £5.30 on the Russian eshop

@Dr_Corndog I'm probably using a bad match up, my character is Ganon who's norotiously slow. But there is zero down time between Min Min being able to attack and then dodge. Me and my brother are both part of the Elite mode online so we aren't bad players. When we play each other it's just impossible to land an attack. I can read his moves well and know when to time a block or dodge but then there's zero opportunity to counter as he can just roll away to distance. There should always be a reward and an opportunity to counter yet there is rarely one. Again- perhaps a bad example and my win rate is pretty much 50% at the minute which is fair enough. But yeah, she's fast, she's powerful, up smash trumps Ganon's down+B move, her down smash covers either side of her. Ridiculous

This hilarious video proves why aswell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ750TniBB0

when are they going to fix Min Min being ridiculously OP?

Sagrada is one the best tabletop games of all time! There's no way I'd pay £15 though when you can get the actual game for £25!

When are Nintendo actually going to do something even remotely good for their online service?

I read the original announcement properly, I knew to not expect any first party content. But I still expected some BIG announcements from the likes of EA, Bethesda, Capcom etc etc. You know maybe something like Mass Effect Andromeda, Doom Eternal release date, maybe Resi 7 etc. All of the announcements in that 'Direct' could have just been released as tweets and no one would have been arsed that they weren't announced in a bigger way

was any of that worth releasing in any form of promo video?

@Cosats yeah note taken. I just took from it that in the earliest days of development, devs were commenting on how developing appeared to be a doddle compared to on previous hardware.

@westman98 oh right, fair enough if you have first experience on that front, but that theory is the complete antithesis of what has been said by various indie developers, especially if it isn't a particularly power hungry game. Take this article for instance https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/293404/Whats_it_like_developing_for_the_Switch_9_indie_studios_weigh_in.php

I'm expecting a massive explosion of content to come from Nintendo and their second party devs.

By condensing all of their home console and handheld efforts into just one platform- I expect that any software they started at the end of the 3DS's life cycle will be there or thereabouts ready to reveal on Switch- given they will have had 2-3 years to prepare something by now.

In theory we should be seeing double the amount of Nintendo's own IP on a single console, shouldn't we?

announce a Nintendo Lego game already. Would a game with dozens of playable characters across various Nintendo worlds built from Lego. Or at the very least just do a Lego Mario game.

@Dimey assuming not. No game will be developed with analogue triggers in mind and no game will be in the future as you'd only be catering for those with said controller in mind. Massive shame.

getting big Monster Boy vibes

@Ooyah haha like Patrick Stewart in Extras

looks like World Cup Italia 90 on the Mega Drive

why do the graphics on an iphone look better than literally any game on the Switch?

Any chance of Donkey Konga 4?

won't be long until it's less than a tenner

Nintendo need to step in and give them a kick up the arse. Don't let them release it.

Hopefully the new Star Wars Rogue Leader thing that's coming out. Not Rogue Leader but you know what I mean

Won't be downloading anything after Nintendo put a 30 day block on my switch and all it's connected accounts due to suspicious activity. By suspicious they mean buying Fe on the Russian eshop and then trying to buy Flipping Death on the South African eshop. Even though I've frequently bought from multiple regions in quick succession before. Absolute refusal to take off the 30 day block and no further explanation offered. Can use pre paid eshop vouchers or paypal, but that's no good when you can only buy from the eshop region which matches your paypal region, in my case the UK, which isn't ideal when UK games are often 20-50% more expensive than in other regions. Sh*t show!

Mine is still not bloody working!

@beazlen1 yes I know this. Last night the eShop was just unusable. When scrolling down the games for sale in some cases it was taking about 10 seconds for the next row of games to appear and even then it would only load the next dozen or so games before having to load again. Not only that there's always a massive lag when inputting commands to move around the eshop. Don't know if it's because I only have about half a GB of memory left on the console itself but I wouldn't have thought that would have anything to do with it. Everything else works fine!

@Silly_G absolutely. In our house when I was a kid there were 3 of us with DS's- having download play was fantastic and it definitely squeezed hours and hours out of our consoles that we would definitely never have had if we each had to own a copy of the same game to play together

any chance of making and update where the eShop doesn't run like ass?

Or you can get Resi Zero or the original Resi remake for £8.85 through the Russian eShops, or Resi 5 or 6 for £10.85 from South Africa.

Just.
Want.
A.
New.
And.
Better.
eShop.

@brunojenso £15 in South Africa if that's any good to you

Please please please update it so that you can craft more than one item at once. Why am I having to stand there for 5 minutes just to make a dozen fish bait? And why craft a flimsy tool, to then have to craft again to make a normal tool? Just let me craft the normal tool the first time round with the extra resources!

Hell Is Other Demons! An absolutely incredible high score chasing game with loads of upgrades and weapons. It's like Downwell on steroids

why on earth are you even giving this the time of day? A game like Hell Is Other Demons got f*ck all from you and yet you promote this?

SK Metroidvania please

as if you'd announce a game without even showing a graphic of the title as a bare minimum

'Our prayers have finally been answered'...

No one was asking for this type of Direct

'get a job' comes to mind

Can anyone remember Animalxing? The ebay style auction site for buying and selling rare furniture etc? Spent way too much time on Wild World.

My 6 year olds collection consists of Crafted World, Captain Toad, Super Kirby Clash, Yoku's Island Express and The Big Journey.

Always on the lookout for games which don't require a ton of reading to be able to progress and not story driven. If anyone has any recommendations throw them my way.

Super One More Jump is absolutely incredible. The best value for money game on the Switch at this price with the sheer amount of modes, unlockables, stages etc

It will be interesting to know what percentage of backers opted for a PS4 copy vs Switch backers.

The most successful game studio on the planet which has turned into the laziest. I don't want to even imagine what sort of money they have available to them in order to increase their staff so that they can take their games to the next level. To put it into comparison, they still only have around 140 members of staff... The guys who made Witcher 3, over 800!

it'll impact it when even less developers moan that they can't get their games working on the switch because of the demands of their new games, leaving the switch to go down the route of the Wii U with nothing but 1st party and indies to rely on. And loads of old ports.

Super Smash Kart

@Kidfunkadelic83 Are the abilities totally different? Intriguing story?

I'd love to see a Shovel Knight Metroidvania or an RPG Paper Mario style where you have to input timed button presses to land your moves etc

Heist ended up being one of my favourite games of all time, and I don't like turn based games.

So off of the back of that I bought Quest. Only played about 45 minutes of it but seems decent.

@Kidfunkadelic83 completed Dig 2, is 1 worth playing or have I seen all the series has to offer?

@Friendly just finished Heist last night, all 20 hours of it. Absolutely incredible, never thought I'd be a big fan of it given the genre but at about £3 or whatever it cost me I thought I'd take the plunge. Suffice to say it was one of my favourite games of all time.

Completed Dig 2 when it first came out. Would you still recommend Dig 1 or would you say I've seen all that series has to offer?

Going to get Quest anyway as at the moment the developer can't do any wrong.

@Iacobus probably, but I don't see why pre ordering an item on a digital store should be any different than pre ordering a physical copy in an actual store, where you most definitely can cancel a preorder.

I also don't agree with not being able to get a refund on a game that hasn't been opened and played yet. If I download a game and don't play on it, I should then be able to get a refund as it's the equivalent of taking back a brand new unopened game to my local game store.

maybe I'll help them out when they reduce Super Lucky's Tale to about a tenner
