I always preferred Wolfenstein 3D, since that was the first 3D game I played. Some of those chip sounds are still as creepy as they were back in the day through my crappy PC speaker (no soundblaster yet, got a SB128 5 years later).
@Shiryu nice! Listenin' to some of your Castlevania chiptunes while browsing NL
This looks much worse than MK8 tbh, a bit like a cheap mobile game that the eShop is littered with. I'm sure it will be a lot better though, but bit strange to try next to MK8 in the game, depending on its price point.
Yet, in this unboxing video the EU LE has no USK logo at all on the actual gamebox itself (it's placed on the outside packaging box, like all other switch 1st party special editions).
Since one of the last updates, the Mayflash adapter for Switch (also around 20 bucks) supports the Wiimote + Classic Controller (and NES/SNES Mini/Classic controller attachments) so if you're in it for the Wii connector and not the GC one, I'd say get the Mayflash (also wireless Wii U Pro/XB360/XB1/PS3/PS4/etc) and vice versa to your PC also (with the Switch Pro also).
@nado_san if that is 'broken' to you, that's really too bad because the game mechanics are great. Who knows 5-game sets will make their way at some point, all I know is I'm having a lot of fun, and have the choice of having shorter and longer sets.
@nado_san Yes, back in the beginning of August they added full 6-game sets for free play and swing mode. Both in standard and simple mode. In simple mode all special attacks are disabled.
@LoriLoud Hell yea
I hope the new online classes make it less threatening for new players!
I find Spirits mode pretty confusing, is this - as the ending of the Direct seems to imply - a real story mode or just new mechanics to fight with locally? I mean, they showed some world maps, but not sure of it counts as a fully fledged 'real' story mode.
Ugh, a collection of awesome Sega games, but with enormous amounts of input lag and awful sound quality and distortions Look at the reviews on Steam and PS4, just don't bother..
Would've bought this if it had basic SoundCloud export support. Such a shame, is it really that hard to implement devs? If you look at Switch's success, this could've been far more succesful as well sales-wise.
Johnny Turbo, stop playing around and remove the ugly standard filters, and give an option to play without them. You'll get more sales, simple as that. I've bought 0 so far, because of them, and I'm not alone.
Already got Alpha Mission II in this sale, and King of Monsters was already in my library. Trying to decide if I'll get Puzzled or not.. I like tetris gameplay. And this is with a twist.
@Moroboshi876 Yeah, same here. I was shocked to see 24 ACA titles on my home menu though, it adds up! Just bought the 25th, Alpha Mission II at 3 euro. Great music!
@Moroboshi876 Yeah, i think they kind of shot themselves in the foot now. Although they're getting alot of sales now with the discount, I am now much more prepared to wait until others get a sale as well.

Excellent! Love the game.

Re: Mario Tennis Aces Version 2.1.0 Update Brings New Games And Tournament Changes This Week
@nado_san You can play without the special abilities in Simple Mode.
Soon we'll have Pauline as a playable character! Wonder how she'll play, says 'fast' in the description

Re: Mario Tennis Aces Version 2.1.0 Update Brings New Games And Tournament Changes This Week
@nado_san it's called simple mode, and it's awesome
Really surprised by the two-person online addition, that's great. Just like ARMS and Mario Kart!
Re: Review: Nidhogg 2 - Crazy Couch-Play Combat Slightly Sullied By Poor Solo And Online Features
Please just release the first one, thanks.
Re: Lots Of The Switch's Biggest Games Have Just Received Huge Black Friday Discounts In Europe
@nocdaes EU gets shafted once again, I just don't get why they don't give us the same discounts. Maybe at X-mas?
Re: Dark Souls: Remastered Switch Update Fixes Crashes And Improves Animations
No audio fix, no buy.
Re: Video: The Pokémon Detective Pikachu Movie's First Official Trailer Has Landed
@Nemodius Go and see some It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, DeVito wins some Emmy's in that.
And as someone who didn't really get all the Pokemon hype from yesteryear, I think the trailer looks awesome.
Re: Lumines Remastered On Switch Is The Best-Selling Version Of The Game
Yet, the PS4 version received about 5x the updates. What's up with that, Resonair?
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th November (North America)
Just get to nintendoeverything.com guys. I know the format and layout kinda sucks there, but at least its up to date

Re: Sega Mega Drive Classics Hits Switch On 6th December, Physical And Digital Versions On The Way
Luckily Nintendo's NES emulation is a million times better than this lazy - just throw 'em in a wrapper and see if it works - crap.

Re: Nintendo Download: 25th October (North America)
@BoFiS Shovelware, please don't buy those $2 standalone pinball tables, but just buy a quality $3 one or pack on FX3.
Re: Video: Dark Souls On Switch Has More In Common With Last Gen's Original Than This Year's Remaster
Play the game once with boss music, with headphones on or docked to your audio system. It is gruesome. They went from 48khz to 16khz.
Re: Fighting Game One Strike Removed From Switch eShop Due To Copyright Infringement
Can I manually block updates, so I keep the score?
Re: Video: Dark Souls: Remastered Is Out On Switch Today, Here's A Juicy Launch Trailer To Celebrate
Waiting for audio patch.
Re: Nintendo Aiming To Resolve Mario Tennis Aces Co-Op Challenge Error By 16th October
@Benjoo if you loved Mario Tennis 64, you'd love Mario Aces. Especially simple modd, core mechanics are great. And online is very lively as well.
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th October (North America)
@Joker13z Yeah, digital. Luckily Switch is region free, but I just don't get it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th October (North America)
Meanwhile in Europe.. Starlink standard edition is $92. Really Ubisoft?

Re: Nintendo Download: 4th October (North America)
@Kolzig It's very weird, I think Nintendo didn't sent out their EU newsletter or something :/
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th October (North America)
EU update still MIA eh..
Re: Review: Super Mario Party - The Life And Soul Of The Party Once More
Previews stated that you need 2 copies of the game for the 2-Switch multiplayer minigames, is this still the case?
Re: The Wait Is Nearly Over For Stardew Valley's Multiplayer Update On Switch
No couch co-op?
Re: Random: Nintendo Is Now Refusing To Offer Stock To Amazon France After Disagreements
@Alucard83 Some games being 50-100Gb a piece such as GTA or others are hardly comparable to 1-6Gb on average on Switch.
Re: Professor Layton, Fire Emblem And Castlevania Feature In The Latest European My Nintendo Rewards
I would almost get Castlevania III for 3DS, but it will probably arrive for 'free' on Switch this year.

Re: Sega AGES Finally Launches In The West, Sonic And Thunder Force IV Available Now On Switch
@Supadav03 only a few games overlap, and sega collection probably has a ton of input lag if you look at their other releases, AGES does not
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 6.0.0 Is Now Live
Pixel perfect goodness is awesome on my Switch
Also: purchasing online in cheaper country works as well, although I would choose from your own region to be safe (so SA for EU/PAL for example).
Re: Sega Mega Drive Classics Is Coming To Switch This Winter With Exclusive Features
@Floria thought these would have input lag indeed
Golden Axe arcade version on Sega Ages pls.
