@alasdair91 yeah same deal for me. Like I bought octopath traveler for £38 on launch day, then sold it to CEX for £40 six weeks later and swapped it for dragon quest 11. Why wouldn't I do that. Digital it would've cost me £100 to play both of them
Huh, this one has taken me by surprise, wasn't really on my radar until reading this. I need to get Celeste, Octopath and Dead Cells out the way first, but definitely plan on picking this up soon.
Just bought the 4-pack of Lovers, Shelter, Flame in the Flood and Human Fall Flat. RIP my wallet. I kind of hope the next 8 don't release too quickly as I won't be able to keep up.
It's so painful they keep doing this. I mean what is the point. I'm only interested in the physical for posterity, if half of it's a download I'll just pick them up dirt cheap in a Steam sale instead.
Nice. I would guess Fire Emblem, Star Fox Grand Prix, Yoshi, and, er, there's probably a lot of surprises in there. A port of Mario 3D World is almost definitely going to happen, although I'd love to see that SMT xFE game come as well as I never got around to playing it.
I went through the exact same with the Wii U. I was hooked on achievements and trophies and I'd play bad games/avoid games with hard trophies, all to my detriment. It's great to finally break out of that and now I couldn't care less about them
Does anybody know if you still 5% for using a digital code bought from a third-party? For example, Splatoon 2 is £46 on cdkeys right now, can I buy that, redeem it on the eshop and get the £2.50 worth of points on top of the £4 discount?
Played it for a couple of hours last night and just loving it. The Skies of Arcadia vibes are strong with this one, can't wait to play some more! From the sounds of it this could keep me busy until well after Christmas though, and through to that rumoured Nintendo Direct...
I quite liked the wizard's quest to slay zero monster, I thought it was a joke... Ah well lol. Aside from this, pleased to see the audio crackling fixed, that was a pain!
@Damo Ah fair enough, wish it would've made its way onto the PAL one. I hope the N64 ones are included in the N64 Mini, I'm pretty sure I've lost my copy of Mystical Ninja 2.
@Pazuzu666 Does every game need to make the Switch a 'must-have'? No one's saying people are going out to buy a Switch just to play this game but it's a neat addition for those who've already got one, like most games.
Oh yes, I've been holding out for this one after missing out on the special edition of Fates. Didn't end up buying any version as I wanted the complete game in 1 place.
I'm pretty bored of the whinging about getting games late. We've put up for years and years in Europe and I can assure you some have been a lot longer than a piddly 3 weeks. Even now shin megami tensei iv says hi!

Re: Feature: What We Expect From The February Nintendo Direct
I'd be happier with 30 minutes on Fire Emblem than I would 30 minutes on Smash. God that was a boring E3 presentation.
But, Wave Race please...

@setezerocinco I think Smash Bros remaster is going to fill out a month next summer, as MK8 did this year.

@Nintendo4Sonic Just because something’s got a big name attached to it doesn’t mean it should get a big score.

Re: Resident Evil Revelations DLC Season Pass Revealed on Steam
I can't say I even touched raid mode in the 3ds version so this doesn't really appeal. I feel like I must be missing out on something?
