Had some fun with 18 on the Switch but I mostly bought it in the hope they would bring Madden and NHL too. That's not happening so looks like I'll need to reinstate my ps plus when PES comes out. Still wish Konami would wake up and release PES on Switch.
I've got the game on Switch and also had it day one on PS4. Not spent a single penny on in game transactions and have absolutely no desire to. It adds nothing to the game for me.
So gutted. When I seen the PES picture next to the Nintendo Life logo I was hoping it was being announced for Switch. Why are you guys even reporting on this?
Finishing off Axiom Verge and Next Penelope. I'll be playing the usual MK8, Splatoon 2 and Rocket League at some point too. Anybody else been having really bad lag on Rocket League recently?
@OorWullie Yeah, you just pay money in to your Revolut account and use it like you would your normal bank card. I use it on the South African eshop all the time. It's just a virtual card.
@electrolite77 I got it free on Playstation plus and haven't spent a penny on it. I bought it on Switch and still haven't considered a micro transaction either. As you say, they are completely unobtrusive.
Despite being a PES only gamer since 2000, I was really looking forward to this on the Switch. Apart from not being able to invite a friend, I'm having an absolute blast playing it. I really struggled to find a pre order of the Switch version though, so I really have to question how much of a priority EA have placed on a game they've apparently put a lot of effort into.
I've not owned a FIFA since 99 on the N64. I've mainly played PES on my friends playstations since then and more recently on my ps4. Konami still can't be bothered to put it on Nintendo so if this reviews well and has decent online, I think it'll get my money.
I can't play Mario Kart in handheld, my right hand is in pain after about two races but I certainly won't be modding my joycons. Table top mode with pro controller will have to do.
@SneakyStyle This isn't true at all. You can type any message you want in rocket league, although it does asterisk out swear words. This is easy to work around though.
@BLP_Software I'm not sure why you're on here talking all nice about a Switch game when you've openly stated that you hope the Switch fails and dies as soon as possible.
@Dangerous25 Ha ha, yes. I don't wish to poison the forum with football talk though. I have my reasons and that's good enough for me. I do still love Luigi.
I'm not reading 130 comments to see if they've been mentioned, but I doubt they have. If you want sports games, Pebble Beach Golf and Jimmy Connors Pro Tennis Tour were great. Jimmy being better than Super Tennis in my opinion.
@UK-Nintendo And you can ignore Nintendo Life posts until you stop being miserable. I get it, you're not happy. We all got that with every single thing you post. It's OK to post criticism, but it's boring on every single article.

Re: EA Says Madden 19 Isn't Coming To Switch Because It's "What's Best" For The Game
I only bought FIFA 18 in the hopes that EA would give the Switch real support. No Madden or NHL means no FIFA 19 for me.
Re: Rumour: Hastily Updated Amazon Listing Suggests Fallout 76 Will Arrive On 31st July
Clickbait garbage once again. This site is going downhill fast.

Re: Feature: Unravelling The Crossover Fisticuffs Of Blade Strangers
@Gen0neD Ha, I don't think you know what Death Metal is. Also, it's in English, not Japanese.
Re: Review: Arcade Archives 10-Yard Fight (Switch eShop)
Think I'll stick with Tecmo Bowl.
Re: Nintendo Download Special Offers: 22nd March (Europe)
Just picked up Doom and Skyrim on the South African eshop for about 26 quid each.
Re: Rocket League's New Update Brings Bug Fixes and Batmobiles
@Latinomex01 There are literally no haters here, the game is great. Some people are having slight technical issues is all. You need to grow the F up.
Re: Rocket League's New Update Brings Bug Fixes and Batmobiles
@BenAV Just won a match 3 nil and got demoted. I guess there are still a few bugs to sort out.
Re: Rocket League's New Update Brings Bug Fixes and Batmobiles
@BenAV I've never had this happen. Lag is the only issue I've experienced.
Re: Rumour: Bandai Namco Could Be Working On An Unannounced Switch-Exclusive Shooter IP
Bamco not releasing FighterZ on Switch but they are developing MP4? Doesn't add up. I assume FighterZ will be coming if that's the case.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend?

Re: Zero Gunner 2 Stealthily Launches On Japanese Switch eShop

Re: Zero Gunner 2 Stealthily Launches On Japanese Switch eShop
@OorWullie Use Revolut. It's really easy.
Re: Super Meat Boy's Day One Switch Sales Almost As High As Its Xbox 360 Debut
@JaxonH ignore him. Everything he says is garbage.
Re: Feature: What We Want From Nintendo In 2018
@msvt So everyone should be held back because you are slow to appreciate what you've got? Great logic.

@Ralizah I'm jealous. I feel like you've had Mr Potato on your ignore list longer than I have.
Re: Suda51 Wants Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes To Be Playable With One Joy-Con
@Rontanamo_Bay The controls in Skyward Sword completely ruined the game for me.
Re: Massive Nintendo Switch System Update - Version 4.0.0 - Adds Video Capture and More
Wish they would add video saves for FIFA.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry on the 'Custom' Merits of FIFA 18 on Nintendo Switch
@Link41 No, it's really not.
Re: FIFA 18 on Nintendo Switch Accounts for a Tiny Percentage of UK Launch Sales
Despite being a PES only gamer since 2000, I was really looking forward to this on the Switch. Apart from not being able to invite a friend, I'm having an absolute blast playing it. I really struggled to find a pre order of the Switch version though, so I really have to question how much of a priority EA have placed on a game they've apparently put a lot of effort into.
Re: Random: Odd FIFA 18 Glitch Leaves Players With No Face on Nintendo Switch
@Tibob they've just blue themselves.
Re: Review: FIFA 18 (Switch)
@kobashi100 It's just EDF always being butt hurt because the Vita got ditched and people love the Switch.
Re: Review: FIFA 18 (Switch)
Would prefer less Celtic related screenshots but a good review none the less.
Re: Pokkén Tournament DX and Pokémon Gold / Silver Make Their UK Chart Debuts
It annoys me seeing really awful 1-2 Switch adverts in the UK but none for Pokken. It would sell really well if people knew it existed.
Re: Review: Ironcast (Switch eShop)
Good review, but the word you are looking for is addictive, not addicting. I'm aware that it's widely used in America, but it's simply wrong.

Re: Super Sidekicks Shoots And Scores On The Switch eShop Next Week
Every single goal I ever scored in this game was a rebound off the keeper.
Re: The Art of Shantae Launches Sometime in 2018
@EDF He was clearly talking about the series as a whole. Must be a joke comment.

@Woosh193 Nice Avatar.
Re: EA is Focused on Nintendo Switch Portability and "Exploring Other Products"
I've not owned a FIFA since 99 on the N64. I've mainly played PES on my friends playstations since then and more recently on my ps4. Konami still can't be bothered to put it on Nintendo so if this reviews well and has decent online, I think it'll get my money.

Re: Rocket League Is Coming To Switch With Cross-Network Play And Exclusive Content
May as well sell my ps4 now, as this is all I've played on it since the Switch released.

@xxAcesHighxx This is exactly what I'm waiting on.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Enjoys Second Week At The Top Of The UK Charts
@Spoony_Tech He obviously thinks only Nintendo gamers buy games when it's sunny.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Finally Fixes That Annoying Acceleration Stat Issue
@SuperCharlie78 This issue is unacceptable. If it's not fixed before online subscription, it will fail miserably.
Re: Yooka-Laylee Could Be Much Improved By The Time The Switch Version Arrives
@Hylian_Greaves I don't think they'd have the rights to Perfect Dark.

Re: Official Nintendo UK Store Embraces Luigi Meme in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Listing

Re: Official Nintendo UK Store Embraces Luigi Meme in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Listing
Can't wear green for football reasons but I'd be all over this otherwise.
Re: Feature: 30 Games We Might Get On The SNES Mini Classic Edition
@Moms-Meowth I also share this concern.
