I'm not sure whether memes were a thing during the original Splatoon,
I certainly wasn't aware of them. But this time, can see them being spammed all over the shop
If they managed to get all the Rare games on this (I know!!!) it would be an essential 'must have' item, without them, it goes down to 'would like'
However, if they did manage to sort out the license issues, forget the N64 mini, get Goldeneye on the Switch as a monthly membership game, with online, on the go..... drool
Never finished the game on Wii U. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it though! Would have to be more than a port for me to buy it again and not just finish it on Wii U. Saying that, if the only way to get those Joy Cons is in a bundle with a straight up port... day 1.
Yeah, missed out on the NES mini, even though I managed to get 1, as the day it was released realised hadn't got anything for the brother in law for his birthday. Thought it would be a nice gesture and I'd just pick one up when they came back in stock.......@wizzgamer
Happy you got yours in! Literally was in tears when I went on to nintendolife and saw the article. Didn't get an email like I normally do for amiibo (obviously wouldn't have mattered anyway) hopefully there will be a 2nd wave @wizzgamer
I have a 70 hour a week job, a young child and a Switch. Those 3 things complement each other pretty well. If I get held up in between meetings, I can play half an hour of ARMS, when my little girl goes to sleep, I can put some headphones on and sit by her cot and play some Zelda. I honestly couldn't give a crap about Netflix etc, I've got a fire stick for all my streaming needs! Super realistic games, I've got a PS4, but at this point I literally turn it on once a month to download the Plus games, I'm sure one day I'll have time to play them. My point is, not all of us have all the time in the world to enjoy our hobby, and for us, the Switch is absolutely perfect!
We had Zelda in March, MK8 DX in April, Street Fighter in May, ARMS for June, Spla2on for July, Rabbids in August, Pokken in September, Frickin' Mario in October. So I'm gonna say Fire Emblem warriors in November and Xenoblade in December! Say we get Kirby in January and Yoshi in February (Minus Street Fighter, and there may have been something else that month) that's not a bad 1st year for the Switch. Let me rephrase that. That's an incredible 1st year!
I'll bite! Although I could get on my PS4 and get a superior version, I will support EA on Switch with the hope that sales are good and they keep supporting the console
Backed this on Kickstarter day 1 so this is still heading my way! Crazy to think you can pick the PS4/XBONE copy up for £15 odd! Even so, looking forward to playing this on the toilet, on my boat, in a hot air balloon or with a goat!
@GoldenGamer88 I was thinking the same thing! Surely it won't be Smash DX, that would be way to many brawlers! Maybe the rabbids crossover, or something to be as of yet unannounced (Pikmin 4, Animal Crossing?)
I think that VC and the CGC will be completely different revenue streams. I can finally see Nintendo catching up with account systems and cloud saves, and when I eventually pay all my upgrade fees for my extensive Wii U and 3DS VC collection to be shipped across to my Switch, this will be the last time I have to do it. The Classic games collection will be a whole different kettle of fish when it eventually launches!
With the nature of the Switch being a 'portable home console' would these games still be accessible when I'm out and about or do I need an internet connection to access them? That will be a deal breaker between subscription and outright VC

Re: 'Elite Angel' Ekoro to be Added as DLC to Mighty Gunvolt Burst
Is it wrong that I've downloaded all the free DLC but don't actually own the game?....

Re: Nintendo Switch Parental Controls App Gets a Neat Update
All my previous months data is gone, simply stating that I didn't play in March, April, May and June, which is obviously vicious lies!

Re: The Smaller New Nintendo 3DS is Discontinued Globally - An Era Ends

Re: Platinum Games Teases The Wonderful 101 for Switch
Don't tell anyone at Nintendo (or affiliated studios) that...@shaneoh
Re: Platinum Games Teases The Wonderful 101 for Switch
Never finished the game on Wii U. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it though! Would have to be more than a port for me to buy it again and not just finish it on Wii U.
Saying that, if the only way to get those Joy Cons is in a bundle with a straight up port... day 1.
Re: Deals: Fresh Splatoon 2 Merchandise Floods The Nintendo UK Store
I hope those affiliate links are working, I've pre ordered - Game and T-shirt, all 3 amiibo, pro controller, Joy Cons and that funky purple hat!
I'm pretty sure that the final 6 smash amiibo drop on the same day! Gonna have fun justifying this one to the misses.....

Literally jumped in the shower a minute before they went on sale and by the time I got out, sold out 😫
Re: Snake Pass Celebrates Summer Solstice With 40 Percent Discount And A Hint Of Upcoming DLC
Really wish I'd waited to buy this! Downloaded day 1 but so far, haven't really had a chance to play it.
Re: The Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition Looks Fabulous
@darthstuey luckily, because of the nature of my job, I always have my phone on me, hence why I haven't missed an amiibo yet 😊
Re: The Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition Looks Fabulous
Hopefully will get an email from Nintendo UK store when it goes up for pre order. My collection needs this!

Re: Deals: Pre-order Super Mario Odyssey Today in the UK and Get a Cappy Hat
@SLIGEACH_EIRE is £50 for an AAA game laughable? I'm aware other companies will undercut this price but in all honesty, it's not extortionate.
Re: Deals: Fresh Splatoon 2 Merchandise Floods The Nintendo UK Store
No box? I just wanna buy a box.....
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Confirmed for Holiday 2017
We had Zelda in March, MK8 DX in April, Street Fighter in May, ARMS for June, Spla2on for July, Rabbids in August, Pokken in September, Frickin' Mario in October. So I'm gonna say Fire Emblem warriors in November and Xenoblade in December!

5 x Mario, 4 x Zelda, 2 x Metroid, 2 x Fire Emblem! Sigh... @SLIGEACH_EIRE
Re: DLC Details and New amiibo Confirmed for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Another 13 amiibo to add to my collection!! Ho hum!
Re: Beyond Good & Evil 2 is Revealed, But Platforms Are Unannounced
The art style makes me hold onto the smallest glimmer of hope that we may see it!! Would love to play it on the go but if not, that's why I have a PS4
Re: Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Pre-Order Bonuses, Collector's Edition and More Confirmed
Not amiibo, not interested!
Re: New Trailer for Skyrim on Switch Showcases Motion Controls and Link amiibo Support
Would love cross platform save states, having pumped 150 odd hours into this on my PS4! Really wasn't going to double dip, but those Easter eggs....
Re: FIFA 18 on Switch to Include Ultimate Team, EA Boasts of Most 'Advanced' Portable Version

Re: The Wii U Pokkén Tournament Controller Will Work With Pokkén Tournament DX
I've still got mine, unopened along with Pokken for Wii U. I will start the bidding at €675,000..
Joking aside, this is something I guess, bodes well for Smash. Also this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01JH53H8U/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1496834630&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=pokken+tournament+wii+u&dpPl=1&dpID=51b2H31jtvL&ref=plSrch

Already saving for when they open the Orlando park. My newborn baby should be 4/5 by then so will be a perfect family holiday!
Re: Sony Thinks You'll Buy A PlayStation 4 Alongside Your Nintendo Switch
Haven't turned my PS4 on since I got my Switch. That's a lie, I watched Rogue One on it on May 4th!

Re: Nintendo Reveals More Details About its Paid Online Service
@xxAcesHighxx will probably be £17.99
Re: Nintendo's Online Service For Switch Will Offer "Ongoing Access" To Classic Games

Re: Nintendo Reveals More Details About its Paid Online Service
So I'm guessing there will be a killer app coming alongside this? Smash DX maybe?
