Gonna pre order this I have the c64 mini and I bought a usb memory stick with practically every game that was made for the c64 hoping something like that will become available for this my only problem with the c64 mini is the horrific joystick
I’ve been pretty critical of this as I felt a bit short changed paying full price for an unfinished game but this is a great article it’s given me the incentive to try and get back into it I was actually gonna sell it but I might as well give this a go plus it’s given me hope that one day it will be complete
So disappointed in this game it’s light on content and just feels unfinished getting a bit dismayed with the switch to be honest what with unfinished games at full price and endless WII U ports
@Ganner yeah I’ve just started pro now and I 100% agree it went from leisurely to insane 😂 still enjoying it tho takes me back to Jimmy whites on the Amiga or pool paradise on the GameCube
Tony hawks pro skater just trying to beat the high score challenges and got pure pool in the eshop sale it’s great the only fault I can find is no overhead view but it’s still excellent
I’m still not 100% sold on this game I didn’t enjoy it first time round and I hate the washed out looking graphics glad to see it has quality of life and technical improvements I won’t say I will wait for a discount cos it will never happen just wish they had given us TWP instead
It’s great if you don’t already have a switch but missing the opportunity to include Bluetooth audio is baffling also a bit of extra power under the hood would have been nice and I don’t mean so it had exclusive games that only run on the oled model just a little boost to make things run a little smoother cos we all know some switch games can stutter along at times
I have a launch switch which has given me no problems apart from the casing coming away at the bottom and a small crack in the casing near the volume button so I’m considering buying one as I have quite a lot of switch games but I’m worried as I have 2 ps vitas one of them is perfect but the other one has a patch at the bottom of the screen where it’s really light I’m wondering if this is a problem with oled screens or whether it’s just bad luck anyone have any ideas?
This is such an odd announcement it’s great if you don’t own a switch or have a broken one and are looking for a replacement but it’s not that far from the price of a ps5 or Xbox whatever this is why Nintendo have held back on giving us any info it seems as tho what the fans ask for Nintendo gives us the opposite
It looks lovely but not enough of an upgrade for me to consider buying some switch games can look a bit muddy in handheld and an oled screen is just gonna make bad textures and the like even more obvious cool if you haven’t already got a switch I suppose
So basically it’s what the original would have been like given a longer testing stage it just corrects the faults of the original and puts a better screen into the mix hope the dock is a little wider as the original scratches the hell out of the switch without being modded not sure it’s worth the extra cash tho
Tony hawks pro skater 1+2 and a bit of Mario golf it’s not great and I’m trying my hardest to get into it but there is just something missing compared to past releases but I’m sticking with at least until we get some dlc
This looks great I love rush rally 3 nearly every aspect of the game is customisable it’s become one of my favourite racing games on switch impressive stuff from a small dev I will be supporting this
Nintendo has a completely different approach to the rest of the industry it’s refreshing in some ways but as Nintendo fans we want old ips resurrected sometimes especially something like f zero I mean someone thought it was a good idea to bring back Bubsy and who asked for that 😂
Mario golf I’m really enjoying it so far, not tried it with motion controls so definitely gonna give that a go also managed to get myself a negcon so will be trying that out with ridge racer on ps1
My least favourite Zelda would have preferred WW or TP HD but I’m still buying it gonna give it another chance maybe it was the controls but this time we have options
Super Mario world, super ghouls and ghosts pilotwings ,f zero ,super Mario kart those are the games I play most regularly would love to see super pang and castlevania iv but mostly I want N64 and GameCube games pls Nintendo
@FiveDigitLP a friend of mine recommended me to get call of duty modern warfare for PS4 but every time I went to play it there was an update I ended up selling it as I just got bored of waiting a few hours before I could have a go I knew there was a reason I had not played COD in years at least with the switch I can play a game pretty much straight away
@KateGray that’s exactly the reason I’ve not used my PS4 in a while and that’s a great point a lot of games nowadays come with a one time use code so renting certain games might not even be possible anymore
Don’t think rental is viable anymore I recently bought spider man on PS4 and it took 4 hrs to update and install I have not touched my PS4 in nearly a year so I thought I would treat myself but imagine having to do that every time you rented a game. Switch games would be fine but I just can’t see people going for it anymore
@Bizzyb it’s great has loads of content I picked it up physical for around the same price as it is on sale on the eshop but that’s in the UK not sure about US though
@PickledKong64 yeah I think Konami now are just a shell of their former self , an also ran ,I play a lot of retro games and they were a driving force they just don’t seem to be bothered anymore
@GrailUK it is I’ve played it for hours with friends so addictive but it has to be the GameCube version it’s not quite the same on PS2 the controls in the GC version are way more precise
I bought the Mario edition wired power A for my son and to be honest it’s awful stiff analog sticks and absolutely useless dpad on the plus side the usb cable is ridiculously long so I use that for other things but no way will this be worth $99
Whilst I don’t think switch online is great I don’t think it’s as bad as it’s made out to be I have put some ridiculous hours into the snes games even tho I have a snes mini it’s just convenient for me to play these on switch it does need an update n64 and GameCube would be welcome but people need to remember the price it’s seriously cheap Nintendo need to up their game pls don’t do a sega and ignore your history
Activity log and folders would be great when I first got a switch I was surprised to see these basic functions missing but I always thought it would be something Nintendo would add over time via a system update the UI just feels a little rushed
Nice collection but the price is mad especially if you live in the UK with the customs charge on top of the price I got these on the eshop for £1.99 each I would prefer physical but sometimes it’s easier and cheaper to just get a digital copy
Have to admit I’m terrible at this game I didn’t play the demo wish I had I just got caught up in the excitement of a new switch game that I hadn’t played before on Wii u I know the series has a massive following but I just can’t get into it
Received it this morning I’ve never played a MH game before so I’m a bit nervous a lot of people have said to me that I won’t be able to get into the series but reviews I have read suggest it’s probably the most accessible in the series plus I got that great deal from shopto
I’ve had my switch since launch day so I’m open to buying a new/revised model but I don’t see Nintendo charging that much it’s annoying cos all the way through the switch lifetime it’s been a constant story these analysts just don’t understand Nintendo
These might be missing functions compared to original joycons but they are so comfortable and the analog sticks are so much better than the og joycons if you play handheld most of the time then these are superb
