It's a cool enough game. I've been plodding along without hitting any walls where I felt I needed to spend any cash so far. That's probably part of the reason it has brought in so little revenue, it's a little easy. Enjoying it though!
Had a go and actually enjoyed it. Waiting for a European release so I can link my main Nintendo account to it now, have they even given a small clue as to when that will be?
@MetalKingShield 100% agree, all great games. Just tried it a few minutes ago for the second time since purchase and still the same problem. Matchmaking only shows about 3 ongoing games to join in all regions. Only 1 showed up the first time. Surely there's more than 3 other people besides me playing?
Brilliant collection. Had a quick go of it this morning and when I did repeated searches for lobbies covering all games I was only getting 2 matches every time. Also, the one game I did join was pretty laggy. Hopefully these issues will be ironed out quickly!
Even a single SNES game would have been more exciting, and it doesn't look like we'll get them until well in to next year, if at all. Such a wasted opportunity.
"We're in the middle of a Summer heatwave and it's been an amazing year for the Nintendo Switch so far." Uhh, has it? The second half of the year could be okay, the first half was completely forgettable.
Might just be my area but I tried trading in my 3DS at Gamestop when buying my PS4 in April and they wouldn't take it as they said sales were down and virtually nobody was looking to buy one anymore.
Why is anyone playing a mobile game on a console to begin with? I gave it a go but gave up the first time it wouldn't let me in to a level because my energy had run out. This type of "game" only cheapens the Switch.
I know, was expecting crazy Black Friday-esque pictures of people climbing over each other to get a Labo. Instead it's just pictures of the inside of a store with no customers in it that could be any store in the world.
Read somewhere that this magazine has been guilty of publishing false info on other Pokemon games in the past so take anything they say with a grain of salt.
Is this the same Deep Silver that created Dead Island? That was the buggiest mess I had ever played on day one ever and swore I would never get one of their games on the first day ever again. Approach their games with caution folks.
Hate to agree with the obvious troll but there needs to be a steady flow of games. Got the Switch for Christmas and January reminded me a lot of the Wii U days. Nintendo needs to splash the cash on more 3rd party deals like the Bayonetta one.
Good for what it was, a Mini Direct. Some good games and I still need to get through Zelda, Mario Kart, Xenoblade, Nine Parchments and the new prison break (Can't think of name, brain fart) game.

Re: FIFA 19 - The Best Soccer Game On Switch, But It's Hard Not To Feel Short-Changed
@Moroboshi876 That's a rational reason not to buy a game you obviously want to buy.

Re: Nintendo Reveals Upcoming NES Game Releases For Switch Online Service
@Marios-love-child It's 3 NES games per month, not per week. Don't hold your breath for anything above the SNES.

Re: The Switch Version Of Broforce Is Locked And Loaded For This September

Re: Talking Point: Switch's Blazing First Year Means Fewer Games In 2018 Shouldn't Be A Concern
I'm a complainer. Now that Octopath Traveller is here I see no reason to complain. For now.

Re: Johnny Turbo Brings Two Crude Dudes To Nintendo Switch Next Week
This is the very first game I ever played on the Sega Megadrive, forgot about it until I saw this article, can't wait!
Re: Random: This 'Joy Boy' Hardware Concept Could Be The Virtual Console Solution We Need
They're a tad expensive but the GPD XD an emulate pretty much anything. Sick of waiting for Nintendo to drip feed the classics again.

Re: Video: New Trailer For Raging Justice Shows Off Some Of The Deadly Weapons On Offer
Love Streets of Rage type games and will probably pick it up but no online play, no purchase.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Life's Favourite Games From Switch's First Year
@darthstuey Zelda has had enough coverage, they're just giving a few other games a little bit of the spotlight for a change.

Re: Soon You'll Be Able To Give Your Switch A Whopping 512GB Of Extra Storage
No thanks, 128gb is plenty for me, like to keep my games physical so they can be used as trade ins down the line.
