I usually go in for solo games but with Splatoon, they need to convince me to even try the single player (after I wasn’t overwhelmed with the first game’s attempt).
@CharlieGirl buuuut, they also didn’t mention Monkey Target, which makes me suspect the reviewers actual SMB knowledge 😅 I flunked a year at uni from Monkey Target, I want it again, but it sounds, and looks wrong 😔
@nocdaes Is there a way to see the total hours played? I’ve only seen that profile bit on the Switch itself and it lists a shorter number of recently played games.
@RCGamer I don’t like online games as a rule either, I have only enjoyed MK and Splatoon 😂 I like some time trial stuff, that’s OK, but the ‘vs’ thing usually puts me right off. Hence my post before, just try it incase (it’s amazing).
I actually had one in my Amazon basket yesterday but I really don’t know if I can justify it. It really is crazy just to get a new screen I think. I do feel a bit of FOMO but it’ll pass
@Kidfunkadelic83 This might be my problem too, I didn’t realIse. I hate the unnecessary stress, then you die and do it again and again until you fluke it and it’s gotten a bit boring…
I kinda feel like I’m missing something here. Does it really look that good to everyone?
I’ve enjoyed nearly all the games in the series so far but this? Not sure it floats my boat…
It doesn’t seem very unique. Other 2D games have totally nailed combat, I’m not sure this is on a par.
We’ll see, open minded!
Edit: I really doooo want to be on the hype train, take me with you!
Wow! It’s also a good price considering the price per brick, pretty good for LEGO at least… (I find them all pretty expensive but sometimes I take the plunge!)
@sketchturner It could be really fun, I mainly want Blur and/or Split Second again though, those were amazing. Or at least something where they driving is important
I prefer the first, now it’s all blurry with pastel colours. It doesn’t really matter though, as long as the gameplay is good. Hopefully they’re spending more time there than making it look all dreamlike…
Undermine, which I wish I hadn’t started as it’s annoyingly addictive and has the most frustrating and frequent crashing bugs (and the dev’s don’t respond)
The Warioware demo is great, the mix of characters adds another layer of complexity. It’s hard to put down, I got to 33 so far, I’m getting old :/
Can’t we wait til Diamond and Pearl are out at least? It’s like they’re dead before they had a chance 😉 (Plus, I need help knowing which once to choose, I played Diamond back in the day).

Re: Metroid Dread Footage Has Leaked Online Ahead Of Next Week's Launch
@twztid13 see my comment above too, although I used ‘soulless’.
We’ll see in a few days 🙂
Re: Metroid Dread Footage Has Leaked Online Ahead Of Next Week's Launch
People are weird… I won’t be looking at any.
I also have zero excitement for it, although I am getting it as Amazon made the only way to pre-order an OLED was as a Dread bundle.
Hopefully it’s good, I have totally enjoyed the rest of the series, this one just looks rather soulless, we’ll see, I can only be surprised 🙂
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For October And November 2021
Does anyone know what happen to Outer Wilds? It’s nowhere to be seen
Re: Gallery: Stunning Splatoon 3 Screenshots Show The Game's Story Mode And Key Locations
@RGH27 both? The multiplayer is amazing!!

Re: Video: Want More Switch OLED Comparison Footage? Feast Your Eyes On This
No way, Amazon.de have them, pre-ordered, YAY!!

Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana
@dluxxx Yeah, I always knew my hope was wasted 🤦♂️
Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana
This sums it up for me
😭😭😭
Re: Soapbox: Wave Race 64 Is Now 25 Years Old, And It Still Rules
It’s begging for an update, it still feels soooo perfect, just the graphics let it down a bit these days.
Re: The First Switch OLED Comparison Video Has Surfaced
@nocdaes Is there a way to see the total hours played? I’ve only seen that profile bit on the Switch itself and it lists a shorter number of recently played games.
Re: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania "Would Never Have Come To Be" Without The Fans
I want to see a review first, too scared to pre-order
Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of Yesterday's Nintendo Direct?
Wreckfest isn’t on the list
Can’t wait, reminds me of my days playing destruction derby on PC!
Mind you, I rewatched the clip and it looks like DD did on our Pentium 75…
Re: The World's First Nintendo Switch OLED Model Unboxing Video Is Here
@ozwally This is the only reasoning I have too, but every time I see it available, I decide not to 🙃
Re: Where To Pre-Order Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda
@nocdaes yup, for close to €30 here
Re: Nintendo Direct To Air Tomorrow, 23rd September

Re: Nintendo 'Blockbuster' Sale Discounts Hundreds Of Switch Games (Europe)
@RCGamer It’s much better online tho
Re: Nintendo's Switch OLED Model Makes Its First Public Appearance In Japan
@Moistnado damn, that’s pretty unfortunate. Mine looks like new 🙃
Re: Nintendo's Switch OLED Model Makes Its First Public Appearance In Japan
@Moistnado I’ve used mine for 100’s of hours over 4 years, ru sure it’s ‘light and casual’?
I’d complain to them if it’s broken.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 18th)
I kicked off another save on Stardew, forest this time. I’ve gotten further than my first effort, just into the second year
Re: Nintendo's Switch OLED Model Makes Its First Public Appearance In Japan
Gah, I want one again
Re: Video: We've Played Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania, So Is It Any Good?
@Dimey that fog… maybe it was the same before
Re: Video: We've Played Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania, So Is It Any Good?
What’s the deal with the change from widescreen to old-screen?
Just a random game option?
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Looking Forward To Playing On Switch OLED?
I actually had one in my Amazon basket yesterday but I really don’t know if I can justify it. It really is crazy just to get a new screen I think. I do feel a bit of FOMO but it’ll pass
Re: Review: Residual - A Deep, Vibrant 2D Survival Platformer With Just A Couple Of Issues
Oh boy, this sounds like what I’m looking for!
I’ll hold fire a bit until it’s smoothed out but I’m excited to try it!!

Re: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania 'SEGA Legends' Pack Brings Back Classic Consoles
For real money?! 😱
Re: Super Mario 64 LEGO '?' Block Revealed, Out In October
Wow!
It’s also a good price considering the price per brick, pretty good for LEGO at least…
(I find them all pretty expensive but sometimes I take the plunge!)
Re: Review: WarioWare: Get It Together! - More Magnificent Microgame Mayhem
@Dpishere Do it, if you like games, I doubt you’ll regret it!
Re: Talking Point: What's The Best Sound In Video Games?
The GameCube booting up sound, with the rolling cube
Maybe it’s a tune and not a sound? Either way, it brings back so many memories for me!

What happened to Outer Wilds? Often mentioned, never released 😔
Re: Cruis'n Blast Hits The Throttle In New Vehicle Showcase
@Realness ha, fair. Our 5yo would love it at least 😂
Re: Cruis'n Blast Hits The Throttle In New Vehicle Showcase
@sketchturner It could be really fun, I mainly want Blur and/or Split Second again though, those were amazing. Or at least something where they driving is important

Re: Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings Of Ruin - Title Update #3 Arrives September 2nd
Does this make sense to play without ever playing the main games?

@Teksetter That was my question too, thanks
Re: Purchase A Digital Copy Of Pokémon Legends: Arceus And Receive 30 Heavy Balls At Launch
@BreathingMiit I was thinking the same (I’m also not risking it) but I think this is still available after launch?
Re: Review: Slime Rancher: Plortable Edition - A Solid Plort Of A Superb Slime Sim
Maybe want to check the conclusion here: ‘doesn’t do the game justice’.
Sounds great though, I’m definitely checking it out!!!
Re: Review: Quake - The Definitive Version Of An Iconic, Flawless FPS
Even the cover art fills me with fear. This was terrifying as a kid!
Excited to jump in!!!
Re: Review: Quake - The Definitive Version Of An Iconic, Flawless FPS
@DropDash They are, but it’s limited :/
Re: Video: Check Out This Comparison Of The Pokémon Diamond And Pearl Remake Trailers
I prefer the first, now it’s all blurry with pastel colours.
It doesn’t really matter though, as long as the gameplay is good. Hopefully they’re spending more time there than making it look all dreamlike…

@Williamfuchs420 They were responding to my question

Re: The Quake Remaster Is Out Now On Nintendo Switch
No… way…
I had to check it wasn’t April 1st
Re: Where To Pre-Order Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl On Switch
EU prices would be amazing too, if you have the time
I always struggle, games are expensive here!
Re: Buy Pokémon Brilliant Diamond Or Shining Pearl Early To Receive A Special Manaphy Egg
@MrPavoPeacock awesome, thanks
I’d fall into the single game retail category, oh well 😂
