@LikelySatan @smithyo I too would recommend Wizorb. Glad to see it getting a shoutout. It is my favourite arkanoidesk game of all time, originally I picked it up on xbox live indie game service and then on everything else it came out on too.
Honestly I’m in no rush and this move is more environmentally friendly plus anti-over consumption (there’s probably a better description of what I mean).
I never got on board with the amiibos. I liked the idea of their functionality although I never really got into it after trying a few of them out. I also liked how you could get cards rather than a figure too.
@LadyCharlie I had this thought too where I play some indie game which costs £0.89 and does what it set out to do really well, I give these games a 10/10 whereas a game which is more epic and bigger budgets I may only give a 7 or 8/10 not saying that the indie one is better but it achieved what it set out to do better imo. Like raindrop sprinters for eg, thats a 10/10 game.
I never liked the n64 or ps1. N64 was my first console and I always thought the snes was better and then when gamecube and ps2 came out I never looked back.
@Kilroy Absolutely not a scam, everyone I've ever shown it to in person was convinced. I've tried it on lots of displays, consoles and game combinations and it absolutely is worth the money imo especially with certain games like mario odyssey and the zeldas on switch just to mention a few. I honestly thought it would've been a must have when I got it and still dont understand why everyone doesnt use it, I guess the misinformation you mentioned may be part of it but I thought enough people would at least be curious about it.
@Mario500 it’s a device which improves the graphics of the switch via the hdmi. They cost about £80 and well worth the money. I cant believe everyone is not using it.
@WiltonRoots I’ve recently been playing GT3 on ps2 via a crt and honestly I think I prefer that to most things on an lcd these days. It runs at 50hz but has no ghosting etc so it looks like a pc running 120fps+ due to the interlacing.

@Savage_Joe I refuse to play any games until we are at the 10xA level at the very least.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 17th)
I will probably not be playing very much as I have eye strain. I have been given eye drops and told to reduce screen time.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Mario vs. Donkey Kong For Switch?
It looks a bit too easy and lacking in content but the demo was fun so I may pick it up on a sale later on.

Honestly I’m in no rush and this move is more environmentally friendly plus anti-over consumption (there’s probably a better description of what I mean).

Re: 'Switch 2' Launching This Year With 8-Inch LCD Screen, According To New Analyst Rumour
I’m still hoping for a screenless model, the handheld function is a waste for me.
Re: Feature: The Stunning Visual Delights Of 'El Shaddai', Inspired By Apple iPod Commercials
I absolutely loved the look of this game and I was away to buy it but a friend talked me out of it. He was slagging it off saying how broken it was.

@-wc- I don't see what the poblem is with that.
Re: Players Need To Start "Feeling Comfortable" With Not Owning Games, Says Ubisoft Subs Boss
If buying isn't owning then pirating isn't steeling so this suits me fine.
Re: Feature: 25 Nintendo 64 Games We'd Love To See Added To The Switch Online Expansion Pack

Re: 'Switch 2' Will Be An Iterative Evolution And Will Cost $400, Predicts Analyst
@Mario500 it’s a device which improves the graphics of the switch via the hdmi. They cost about £80 and well worth the money. I cant believe everyone is not using it.
Re: 'Switch 2' Will Be An Iterative Evolution And Will Cost $400, Predicts Analyst
@Kilroy I have tried it on everything and the best consoles to use it on are the wii u and switch, I wouldnt even bother with anything else tbh.

If you want a graphical bump today then go and by the Mclassic.
Re: Talking Point: Along With Joy-Con Drift, What Does Nintendo Have To 'Fix' With 'Switch 2'?
@WiltonRoots I’ve recently been playing GT3 on ps2 via a crt and honestly I think I prefer that to most things on an lcd these days. It runs at 50hz but has no ghosting etc so it looks like a pc running 120fps+ due to the interlacing.
Re: Talking Point: Along With Joy-Con Drift, What Does Nintendo Have To 'Fix' With 'Switch 2'?
@WiltonRoots But decent games already run at 60 on the switch.
Re: Feature: The Rise Of 'Scam Games' And 'Keyword Bingo' Firms Flooding Switch eShop
