I bought this a couple of weeks ago with my Switch. I have a feeling we are playing a different game. Put about an hour into it. Hated it. The difficulty level was so frustrating that it ruined any enjoyment. Tomorrow it will be getting traded in for some credit.
Had decided I would be getting this before I even watched he trailer. I loved the previous 2 games.... which I am now going to download again and replay ha ha ha
I was really enjoying this game until I got to the reflection room. Then the enjoyment turned into frustration which after a number of hours just turned into annoying. I am now thinking I will be trading it in for Crash Bandicoot at the end of next week.
I voted for Captain Toad Treasure Tracker, Wonderful 101 & Paper Mario. Certainly would like to see Captain Toad again. I thought it was a great game on Wii U.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE My switch is literally sat gathering dust. It's only two weeks since launch but I am starting to worry that I will have only about 3-4 games worth playing on it by xmas.
I part exchanged my wii u and games to pickup Switch & Zelda. Not a big fan of the new Zelda but glad I got the switch because its stopping dust settling where my wii u used to be.
It likely won't get switched on again till Mario Kart gets released.
To be honest I really like the console I just wish there was something to play on it.
I have no idea why this game is scoring 10's. I picked it up with my switch yesterday morning and have played it most of the day but I am not enjoying anything about it at all. I am already tempted to part ex it for something else (which will leave my switch gathering dust till mario kart at the end of april).
"As a handheld, the Switch is a powerful piece of hardware with a gorgeous screen, but it's too large and power hungry to feel like you can really take it anywhere. As a console, it’s underpowered, unreliable, and lacking basic features and conveniences that all of its competitors offer. It’s nicely built and cleverly designed to be used in a variety of ways, but the bottom line is that the Switch doesn’t do any one of the many things it can do without some sort of significant compromise. Our testing will continue for the next few days as we try out the online features and other functions enabled by the day-one patch, but if I had to score it now I’d give it a 6.7."
I am failing to see what use this app is. I can only add friends from people who follow me on Twitter or from my friends list on Facebook. Why do I need another pointless messenger app when both Twitter and Facebook do the job already. It's just pointless.
@arnoldlayne83 There is no way they will leave the Wii U on the market for another 18 months. From everything I have read I agree with the rumours suggesting a late 2016 release.
@bezerker99 I liked Sticker Star although never got round to finishing it. I picked up Paper Jam a few days ago and finally got round to starting it yesterday. Although I am not far into it I am enjoying what I played so far.
There needed to be a box that says none on that survey. I have no interest in any of the upcoming titles. Still got Xenoblade to play on my 3DS and have played the last Mario Tennis game to death so not very interested in the next one. The only think I was looking forward to was Star Fox.
@AceTrainerBean Ok I am really confused! The eShop says not only is the DLC available but I have purchased it. When I go onto Mario Kart it tells me that it hasn't been released yet. WTF?
Looks to be about 2 years between the DSi getting released and the 3DS release. Whilst I did want the new 3DS I am thinking I will wait for the next gen handheld.
@JaxonH
Yep nothing on Xbox one/PS4 till end of october.... except
Destiny - 9th Sept
EA Sports UFC - 20 June
FIFA 15 - 15th Sept
Shadow Of Mordor - 7th Oct
Metro Redux - 29th Aug
The Evil Within - 29th Aug
Sniper Elite 2 - 29th June
So apart from those 7 titles theres nothing at all coming out in the next 4 months for Xbox One& PS4. As opposed to the Wii U which has almost nothing coming out until Smash Brothers.
Lets be honest the sales are appalling everywhere not just in Japan & whilst I don't want to sound defeatist, I honestly don't think the list of titles coming out over winter will make much difference. I admit it might lift sales short term I can't see Wii U standing up to PS4 & Xbox One.
I thought it was a joke at first. But from reading I gather its aimed at the under 7 market and that the price is pretty cheap. Makes sense to me aiming an affordable version of a popular console at young kids.
Apparently GAME are advertising it at £109.99 in the UK but no doubt Amazon will have it down at £99 before the end of the week.

Re: Capcom Confirms That Monster Hunter's Live-Action Movie Adaptation Is Definitely Going Ahead
Mortal Kombat - Crap

The 3 Musketeers - Utterly Terrible
Resident Evil: Retribution - Crap

I'm not holding out much hope on Monster Hunter. The Three Musketeers is possibly one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

Re: We Know There's An Appetite For Virtual Console On Switch, Says Reggie Fils-Aime
@tjhiphop It didn't need to be ready for launch but 3-4 months after the launch still not been able to decide what to do is a poor way to run things.
Re: We Know There's An Appetite For Virtual Console On Switch, Says Reggie Fils-Aime
'okay, what's going to be the best way to make that happen, to make that available?'
Surely thats a decision that should probably of been made before you launch the console.

Re: Poll: One Week On - How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@jbizzle812 Exactly the same reasons I am not a big fan. Spent a weekend on it and then gave up. Will most likely trade it once Mario Kart comes out.

Re: Hardware Review: Nintendo Switch: Nintendo's Most Important Console Yet
