I remember being in New York for this when it was out and seeing people queuing at the Nintendo shop for it. As a European visitor I already had it on my switch with it being a UK purchase. I then proceeded to play the game all Christmas. Wonderful memories
@Zuljaras I did have a 2 but didn't use it as much as I didn't have the space at the time. Use to love table tennis on it! I think I would go straight for the 3. Only thing stopping me now is the Black Friday and a potential of further savings.
@Zuljaras enjoy the world of VR! I have been tempted by a quest 3 for a while. I use to have the quest 2 but I struggled mainly for space at the time. Not sure if I should get the three or wait a few years for a newer device. I recommend trying out a table tennis game, always a blast and especially when playing online.
Ordered and received a Miyoo Mini Plus this week so will probably be playing Pokémon Emerald on that. Highly recommend this little machine! Other than that, I am waiting for Starfield to finally launch!
@JohnnyMind Excellent! Thank you for the well detailed reply. I think I will take a look for a pre order. I took a quick look at the prices for three houses and they are actually extortionate still and also hard to find a copy.
Great point about taking part in here as well and I think I will lean into that too
Had my steam deck for about two weeks and the system is just great. Yes you have to tweak at first and find out bits and bats but the possibilities are endless on this device
I ordered through eBay at £35, I was happy enough with that. If anyone is on the fence they currently have a 20% off deal going around on eBay, I am sure you can get it cheap from that.
Managed to get both Pokémon Diamond and pearl for £76 this morning
It's probably been asked many times but which one should I get? Never played a finally fantasy game ever and want to see what the series is about a little bit more. I can get one on game pass but would ideally want it on switch!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (6th September)
I picked up both Hollow night and Everybody's Golf Hot Shots. Honestly, everybody's golf just doesn't feel good, I regret my purchase.
Hollow Knight has been really good up to now and surprised more aren't playing it from the comments I have read!
Re: Nintendo Treehouse Returns This Week With Two Presentations On Switch 2 Gameplay

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (26th October)
Just back from two weeks in Japan! Super Mario Party Jamboree I think for me this weekend and maybe some echoes of wisdom.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (26th October)
@Zuljaras how is the quest 3 mate? I am very tempted and the pass through sounds like the biggest sell to me
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (28th September)
@Zuljaras I think I will go the 3 instead of the 3s! Just built a PC as well so it gives me a reason to try more vr content

It has to be echoes of wisdom... Right? Of course it is!!!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 25th)
I am a few Pokémon short of getting the shiny charm so want to try and finish that up.

@MalibuGaGa I think I was 4 or 5? Got a black and white Nintendo with that, Pokémon Blue and Tetris. Best birthday ever.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 11th)
@Lony85 six golden coins was my first Mario game, I need to try it out again! Hope you enjoy
Re: Nintendo Shares New 8 Minute Fire Emblem Engage Overview Trailer
@RubyCarbuncle I did play a Xenoblades game once (wasn't my cuppa tea but and I hope fire emblem is different) and I get what you mean!
Re: Nintendo Shares New 8 Minute Fire Emblem Engage Overview Trailer
Good overview for the game for a first timer like me, but holy cow are them voice overs cringy sometimes
Re: Best Fire Emblem Games Of All Time
@Goofonzo love the phrasing 😂 just ordered engage
Re: Best Fire Emblem Games Of All Time
@JohnnyMind I will definitely keep an eye out but I think I am going to bite the bullet now on engage!

Re: Best Fire Emblem Games Of All Time
Okay so I want to try fire emblem but I don't have a 3ds. Would I be best trying out engage or am I best getting three houses? Cheers in advance
Re: Feature: Game Of The Year 2022 - Nintendo Life Staff Awards
Hard to say I have a top game I would say but I do have standouts and they are not all on the switch.
Pokémon legends of arceus
Vampire survivors
Arcade paradise
Re: Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Are Getting A Day One Update
It's only a 1GB, won't take long. The fact that games like call of duty on the Xbox have 60GB patches
Re: PSA: Tread Carefully, Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Leaks Are Out In The Wild
@Anti-Matter only one has leaked up to now and that's the fire starters second evolution
Re: UK Charts: Strong Openings For Both Mario + Rabbids And Persona 5 Royal
Call of duty is out on Friday, that's the real test I would say as this one has some hype around it.

Re: Wii Sports Is Reborn As 'Nintendo Switch Sports'
By the looks of it, you will need ring fit accessories to make the most out of it
Re: UK Retailer Currys Had A Metroid Dread Deal That Was Too Good To Be True
Good on Curry's for honouring.

Re: There's A New Nintendo Switch System Firmware Update Coming Soon
The system just seems a bit Billy basic, I think some stuff we all want is now too late to do as well.
Sorry if you are called Billy, don't want to offend you
Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer: 'I Could Have Never Designed The Wii... It Was Just Amazing To See'
