I've seen ZERO Team Rocket Pokestops and I work in city centre where there are hundreds.

It's funny, but also I would hate to play that.

Very good, but it doesn't look like it controls like Mario really controls.

There'a a bit of text on the Amazon product page that says "Some English games are localizations of Japanese titles."

I'm hopeful they'll add an English locations for such a text heavy game. I mean, what's actually stopping them from actually including the Sega CD version rather than the PC-Engine version? I wouldn't be mad about that.

Amazon UK also have the official multi-tap for the mini here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Turbo-Engine-Coregrafx-Electronic-Games/dp/B07TDQYHQN/ref=sr_1_11?keywords=pc+engine&qid=1563188845&s=gateway&sr=8-11

But I couldn't find additional controllers.

Looks like this only comes with one controller though which is a bit mean isn't it?

I'd love to buy a Switch Lite but it's not a practical purchase if you've already got a regular Switch. I still want the ability to play these games at home, but I absolutely love the super portable form factor of this Switch. The smaller size, the slightly better battery, the lack of removable parts.

If I could have both and use my original Switch as my at home Switch then I'd buy this in a heartbeat but the operating system isn't built for this type of setup.

Can I log-in to two Switches at the same time? Could I play the game at home on the original Switch, then "switch" to the Lite when I'm at work or travelling? What about games that don't support cloud saves? It might be doable for games that do support cloud saves albeit a pain in the ass to have to keep uploading and downloading saves, but for Pokemon or Animal Crossing, it's just not going to work.

It's a shame that I'm not going to be buying a piece of Nintendo hardware at launch for the first time in 27 years.

As the Switch is £279 in stories, this should have been £179. I think £199 is little too much.

I'd also love to get one though. The small(er) form factor and all in one-ness of it is tempting as a device for me to use out and about.

But the question mark over whether Nintendo will cater for people with my mindset, at least at product launch, is enough to make me hold off.

And I'm normally there for every product launch and have been since the Gamecube days. Day 1 purchaser of all hardware since, and this could be the first time I'm not.

I want to see a size comparison next to a regular Switch.

I also want to know, for example, if I already have a Switch could I use this as a device to take with me and leave my regular Switch at home? Would a gamer I play on my old Switch piuck-up right where I left off on here? Or would I not be able to sign in to my account on the Lite if I'm signed in on my old Switch. Would Animal Crossing, which doesn't support cloud saves, only work on one console, not both?

What Nintendo really need to do is persuade the third parties to allow their NES games on there. Let's get Square Enix, Capcom, Konami, Sunsoft, etc really on there.

Chinese companies were making cases for an iPhone SE 2 based on rumours so I'm not holding my breath.

I'd love to see the Oracles games remade. But probably now into one game.

I really want that slime controller but I'm not I'm importing it. I'll pray they release it here (ha, I mean do I really believe there's a chance of that?)

That means four (or more) of the Dragon Quest Hero character? Ouch. My poor wallet. So happy to be getting some DQ amiibo though.

Excellent news! Let's hope those lawyers have kept this water tight!

I assume they spelled it "RAZE" for a reason? But I don't know enough to know why so it just looks like a glaring spelling error to me.

Meh. While I've not played this current Elder Scrolls game (can you even, isn't it in a closed beta?) I assume as it's mobile that it's a loot based, free to play / pay to win style game. The game play looks janky and not free roaming like Skyrim - I'm very confused by it. It doesn't look appealing at all.

Switch is the first Nintendo console that I’ve bought loads of third party titles for. This will be included! I’m super excited about this and the Welsh lantern nose thing!

I’ve just seen Leisure Suit Larry is coming to Nintendo Switch too!

BRING X TO SWITCH!

BEE back tomorrow? Looks like a clue to me!

Ugh I really REALLY want this game. I'm glad we're getting it after the DQX mess.

You should add the officially licensed six button controllers from Amazon for those of us in the US and Europe that have to put up with the three button controller.

Getting deja vu for like the second or third time now with sluggish "Virtual Console" release schedules with very dull games.

I wonder if we’ll get these in Europe?

Upset about Quackshot and a couple of other games others have mentioned. Particularly Konami games. But it’s still a must buy.

Yeah this looks lovely in renders but practically, it would be horrid. That sort of plastic is a fingerprint magnet and would like tired and old very quickly. The control sticks are also too close to the outer edge so I don't think they'd be comfortable. But it's a nice looking design and dock idea is pretty great. It's a little Vita looking though too which I think they should avoid.

It does look absolutely fantastic. I cannot wait for this.

Ooooh. I mean, I love me some Dragon Quest and I'm getting bored of Pokemon Go to be honest. Do you think this will come out outside Japan though?

Wait, so Japan gets an origins collection on Switch where as we get each game separately?

This is why I'm never buying a full price Capcom game ever again.

Yep, getting this one!

Not having Haunted Castle and Rondo of Blood on the Castlevania Collection is really putting me off buying it. This collection I think has all the 8 and 16 bit games, oh wait, except Contra Force.

<<SPOILERS AHEAD>>

Well, the first Detective Pikachu game didn't go as far revealing that Pikachu was in fact Tim's father, even though it was heavily suggested by the storyline. The movie however did reveal that so I hope there's going to be a lot more introduced in the game.

So it looks like you'll be able to bring your Pokemon from Go, Let's Go and Bank to Home but not send them back. With Shield and Sword, you'll be able to send them and retrieve them. Interesting.

This is absolutely amazing news, I love the Star Ocean series!!

I loved the first game. Hope to see the physical version on sale very soon.

These are actually pretty damn good. Streaming now on Apple Music while at work at it's surprisingly soothing and just great at drowning out the surrounding noise without distracting me.

A new version of the Switch will absolutely happen at some point. These rumours are pointless.

Have Uniqlo / The Pokemon Company never heard of reverse image search?

Do you know what this really looks like? Maple Story. I used to love that game!

How are you supposed to play Street Fighter II with three bloody buttons? If I recall, you actually hold the start button and press a button or something really dumb, but goodness gracious me Sega. GIVE US THE SIX BUTTON JOYPAD.

Everything apart from the NES games.

When was the last time Capcom released a game on Switch cartridge?

While I dislike emulation in general what I like about reporting things like this is it shows what can be done and should make Nintendo and other companies make more effort when they try to resell their 20 year old games for £5 or £10 with no improvements. I know we're seeing some games come to us with improvements but that's still few a far between. If they could HD the Mode 7 of SNES games when they eventually come to Switch, that would be a massive bonus to everyone.

@kepsux That is an excellent conspiracy theory. I love it. And I wouldn’t put it past “Hollywood”.

Hard pass sadly.

"We don't sell to England"

-_-

Ooooh, this has my interest! I really would love a Story of Seasons game. I guess it depends how heavily Doraemon features and if it really relies on your familiarity with that franchise. Other than being a cute character from Japanese comics and cartoons I don't know a lot about Doraemon. The trailer perhaps suggest it's not heavily comic or cartoon based. It looks more like it just so happens Doraemon is in the game rather than in the Doraemon universe, if you get my meaning?

I'm slightly annoyed at this bundle. All shooters, except for Haunted Castle. Why isn't Haunted Castle on the Castlevania collection? Ugh.

Quackshot was amazing. One of my favourite Mega Drive games.

I've got every amiibo released in the UK aside from Octoling Splatoon 2 amiibo (which I will get at some point). I don't know why, I love collecting them though.
