@cs_ZAVVI So, I contacted your support and the only option I was given for both of my items was to CANCEL my order. How ridiculous is that?
I had pre-ordered both items in good time.
Zavvi is a total let down and a complete waste of time.
Shockingly bad customer service. I've only ever ordered 3 times from them. Every time I had to wait months after release dates before recieving the items.
That's where all the amiibo's are going to. I ordered all 3 amiibo. Ena and Tsukino were both cancelled due to a 'technical error'. More like we're using these for a giveaway.
@BulkSlash I've been doing exactly the same other than John Lewis as we don't have that store here. I think my best bet would be Amazon at this point. It's listed on their site but I don't think the pre orders have went live yet.
I wish cross-play was off by default. The wait times for a single match is ridiculous with it turned off. I'd rather play a game where I'm not at a huge disadvantage with other players.
I'm surprised there's been no mention of performance yet. If it runs at 30 FPS the switch will be at a serious disadvantage during cross play. I'm hoping panic button will pull a miracle out of the bag and hit 60fps, but I'm not sure if it's possible.
@Balchad I wasn't expecting you to mention freedom wars. Infact I've never heard anyone praising it so much. I thought it was a good game of what I played of it. It was definitely right up there in terms of graphics and I loved the Lost Planet style grappling hook.
I would've played alot more of that game if my saved file hadn't gone corrupt on me. The only thing putting me off restarting it was all of the dialogue.
Day 1 for me! I purchased superbeat xonic on PS4, Ps Vita and soon to be the switch also, I absolutely love the game! I welcome all rhythm games to the switch, keep 'em coming!
@MagnaRoader I think I'm one of the few that's actually supported the PlayStation Vita from the very beginning.
I agree with everything that you're saying but, I don't think the Switch is much different when it comes to third party titles and especially physical games with them being seriously over priced.
Also, with the likes of chat audio Nintendo really screwed up there. That's something even the vita got right. Sure it's not the best of quality, but it's there.
I think you're forgetting about the over priced accessories for the Switch also. Joy cons, pro controllers and extra docks. Nintendo are just as guilty as Sony at charging extortionate prices for their official goods.
I purchased the splatoon 2 headset for the switch and I hate to say it, but it's absolutely awful. Too many wires, the headset itself can't be adjusted and is actually too big for my head and the audio quality is the worst I've experienced in a long time. Posting this here for anyone interested on the quality of it since it's also a Hori product.
@lemonjellydude Personally, I'm not a fan of motion controls. If you're a bit like me you'll want to use standard controls. Go to the options menu by pressing '+' on the weapon select menu and turn off the motion controls! The game plays much better this way.
I hope the same goes for Nintendo Switch games that have been ordered from their site too. I've ordered the Legend of Zelda limited edition bundle and if it doesn't show up on time I'll have a Switch with no games to play over the weekend.
@G0dlike I have a family member working at GAME and I seriously do not appreciate your disgusting words because he is actually passionate about gaming and goes above and beyond for customers.
I can say with confidence that you're no better than those 'disgusting ignorant employees'.
@cfgk24 No, Instead you'll be in another queue with other people that are currently queuing who have have also pre-purchased their nintendo switch so that they wouldn't have to queue but in the end still have to join the queue.
@WeeManStudios I'm purely going to purchase your game to help support you guys at weemanstudios because you're the only local game development team that I'm aware of. I was interested in your game from the get go, looking forward to trying it out!
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Both me and my partner are really enjoying this game, mostly because there's nothing else quite like it on the 3DS. Try the game first before you make such accusations. You sound like the rest of the salty kids on the Internet that haven't played the game.
I've recently been looking into this game and was literally about to purchase it after reading your review on the first installment of story of seasons, that is until I read this article.
One thing I'm interested about which wasn't mentioned in the article is the multiplayer aspect. Do you have any details on that? If so has it improved from the previous game?
I'll be keeping a close eye on the new release. Looks great so far!
It's great to see local developers getting some attention and this game is right up my street being a huge fan of Wipeout, F-Zero and Starfox! Hoping this is going to be a great first success for Weeman Studios.
@ikki5 It's not a circle pad pro that you need. You should invest in a New 3DS.. I assure you that it's a game that almost anyone can appreciate and enjoy once you've fully experienced what the game has to offer. You can't get a better co-op game than this, especially on the 3DS! I go on regular hunts with @TequilaUK, we'd be happy to take you along with us and show you how enjoyable monster hunter can be!

Re: Random: Nintendo America's President Doug Bowser Celebrates The Return Of Samus
Still waiting on my game arriving.
Nintendo is easily the worst place to shop for a game if you want it for day of release.

Monster Hunter's soundtrack has always been consistently epic. Cannot wait for this!

Re: Hyrule Warriors Legends Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks DLC Pack is Out Today
I really wanted to like this game, but the lack of local multiplayer ruined it for me. The 3DS needs more multiplayer/co-operative games!

@Moon MH4U is considerably bigger at around 2.6gb

More importantly, when will it be released? I've been actively hunting on MH4U preparing myself for the release of Generations.
My body is ready!
