Nice to hear a store is opening up outside of the Tokyo-Osaka region. I'm hoping that with so many new Nintendo stores opening, we'll finally get one in Europe...
Love that this will be available on other platforms too. I'll be playing on Switch 2, but Toby's dedication to parity is admirable. No one's missing out!
So is the way with all new and desirable electronics. It's impossible to stop them, unfortunately. I'm glad I was lucky enough to get my pre-order for in-store pickup with Smyth's the day after the direct.
@lemonjellydude other than the plugs that you mentioned, it should work fine as all European consoles are the same regardless of the country. You might have to pay more to have it imported to the UK, though.
Also, the Smyth's restock doesn't seem to have applied to in-store pickups in Northern Ireland. Not yet at least, they only sold out here late last night anyway
Looks like dumb fun, but not sure I'll splash the cash on this in particular just yet. I'd like to get the camera at some point at least... Imagine Face Raiders 2 using it... 😅
@PULPCAT I'd presume they'd stick to the 8th, seeing as there's not even any mention on the site last I checked. But we really don't know.. Best bet is to keep checking the site regularly I'm afraid 😣
Edit: the site now says that pre-orders are "coming soon"
I'm mostly positive for Switch 2, but idk how I'm feeling about these paid upgrades. I guess it's warranted for Mario Party and Kirby. Just not for me I guess!
Exciting... I was 100% expecting this to be a Partner Showcase. I can't see there being another general direct anymore, seriously what else do they have to announce? But now I'm convinced for a Switch 2 reveal in September.
Gonna download this one myself once i get home. Missed out on the physical version (didn't know it was coming out tbh), but day 1 digital is still fine by me!
Surprised at the popularity of the EU/NA box art... 86% of the vote at the time I'm commenting this! The Japanese art is really unique in my opinion, it is my favourite of the two.
Does anyone else feel like this game feels, like super low effort? Even for a Mario Vs. Donkey Kong game. Cool to see this game back though, it's really good
@Krull The original office is too iconic to paint, it's been the same since like the dawn of time. Designing the new office like a Gameboy though would be a cool idea
@DanijoEX you don't have to buy the expensive games? The vast majority of my Wii collection is worth under £10 and they're all good titles. You don't have to buy the expensive titles for it to be a good game.
My only real defence for emulation is for preservation purposes.

Re: Mario Kart World's 'Free Roam' Is Much More Than Mindless Open World Driving
I did not expect mission mode to return, even if it's not really a "mode". It makes the most sense to be integrated into free roam. Exciting!

For those in Northern Ireland, Smyths has finally "restocked" all shops here for click and collect. Still in stock in all of them.

Re: Nintendo Has Apparently Retired Its Gulf War Game Boy
Odd theory, but could this be because it's being sent to that Nintendo museum being made in Kyoto?
