Everyone's broad assessment that Nintendo doesn't traditionally do well in the UK is a little far-fetched. This isn't the NES vs Master System debate anymore. Which to be honest, living through it, wasn't as one sided as people like to think or pretend they have statistical proof from.

I do kinda miss the 16 - 32 bit gens when there were tons of footy games to pick up. Now it really is just FIFA, somewhat PES and then budget arcadey titles like this.

No GTA V? That's crazy

Looking for the next Stardew, Golf Story or Shovel Knight,

Is there a physical release coming out? I can't find it on amazon

Good stuff with SMK. 150cc is brutal unless you're well practiced. Especially Special Cup.

Yeh. It's now jumped back up in price to £80

Will we be getting a review of this Nintendolife?

Yep this list is basically the games available on Switch or the NES classic. Not a lot of old skool heads voting here by the looks of it. Where is Marble Madness, Digger T Rock, California Games and RC Pro Am?

So is this just a DJ Hero rebirth? Them games had some awesome mashups

@mazzel That's Nintendo World Cup, a much more fun game

Mario Kart 9 isn't coming anytime soon. Probably not even on the Switch so make do with what you have people.

@status-204 It's more embarrassing you calling out someone who is just trying to make a more light hearted comment on a thread being dominated by people stressing over fps.

all this fps stress. Why? 30 fps as long as its consistent is perfectly acceptable and you adjust to it quickly. If a game not running at 60fps really is the reason for you not to play a game then you're missing out on a lot of great games.

Probably a great book. But £40 is very pricey

If this is still popular in 6 months time, i can see a full release coming, maybe with Mario 3 / Mario World themes as well.

@Yanina Happy people are too busy playing rather than whinging

It is a lot of fun, but yes if you're decent at old school Mario you'll tend to be in the last 5 or 6 people regularly and that's where things get interesting. I'm gonna try and make some more time with it this weekend and open up more levels. Clever game.

Still playing Champ Manager 97/98. When is that getting ported to Switch?

How many racing games on the Switch support motion controls? Genuine question I'm asking here firat without delving into the research myself

@Kit Red and Yellow is life

Tremendous console. Possibly my fave handheld of all time. Still dipping in now i am picking up a lot of games on the cheap, and i think it will be the first console i introduce to my son and daughter in a couple of years.

The constant back and forth of touch screen to re grabbing my right side of the switch may either become frustrating or just really natural. We'll see i guess. Hopefully my pre-order arrives on Friday, as i hear there are some supply issues.

@sanderev Im not sure i can comfortably reach across the whole screen to collect star bits scattered everywhere quickly. But we will see i guess when the game is out next week. Looking forward to it.

@The_Pixel_King i thought the Y button was just for the spin attack.

I'm concerned about touch screen for getting star bits and what not. Moving my hand from holding the switch to touching the screen seems a bit of a hassle for something you have to do almost regularly in game. Will just have to see i guess.

Did a Hipster write this review? Awful

i wasn't even gonna consider getting this as the Wii U one is stil so fresh in my mind. But the Bowser's Fury extra intrigues me. Need to know more about that first.

@Tourtus at least as a digital only release would be nice enough

@Pacopapa02 It's a risk waiting for them to announce it with the game only two weeks away. Shame as a special edition or something would be very cool.

Scalpers will be all over this, just like the NES and SNES classic

The Contra Collection was dirt cheap on the eshop recently so i got that. I know there are a few extras with these Arcade Archive versions, but not enough to warrant a double dip. Besides, i always preferred the console versions

Still waiting on a sale price drop for this. Or a Physical release. I'm willing to pay £20-£23 but i'm cheap hehe.

@DoktorTotenKopf I wouldn't agree. At the price point it is at this is nice extra. What they really need to do is fix the bugs of actually playing games online.

"Dour sport of professional wrestling" What are you on about? If anything It's the opposite of Dour

@KevTastic84 Just caught it £19.99. Tempted but may wait for a sale, as the backlog is still brimming

Anyone checked the eshop for a price yet? I'm away from my Switch at the moment.

@Kilamanjaro I have two young children so a just struggle to play any time sinkers now. The last game i put real time into was Stardew Valley and i am far from finished with that. Started PM Orgami King a few weeks ago and only put in about 2 hours so far.

This is on the list

This looks great, i just cannot warrant buying any more games at the moment. The backlog is ridiculous and i will not find the time to play it, Simple, but frustrating. Adulting has taken over

Easy and free way to get some buzz and free marketing. Winner

@TG16_IS_BAE One day i hope Konami release the Rebirth Trilogy on Switch

Not convinced my Mario Maker skills would be enough on my CV

If you wanted Pikmin 3 on your Wii U, You'd have it by now. Stop moaning

Until they get serious with some games. No. Expensive as well for the unknown

Great game. Trailer makes me wanna start again playing. But I think this physical release has come just abit late.

I got the physical version of Ritual of The Night in a sale for £20. But not had time to put any serious playing time into it yet, I think it's been patched reasonably well since the initial buggy release though from what i've heard.

@Apportal I have two young children now so getting through the backlog is hard enough. But yeh you're right, i should just be playing what makes me happy

Is it gonna make me put down Stardew Valley ???

I have Origami King on my shelf ready. But playing through sticker star at the moment (I know, cue the laughter and hate). Feel obliged to stick with that a bit longer first.
