It’s the extra attention to animation and the little expressions , a ton of little things just looks way more alive less ridged nsmb was awesome but it’s been the same style from ds to wii to 3ds and wiiu and switch not counting switch that’s 4 generations same style mainly just a hd touch up obviously it’s more complicated than that but this feels new with a ton of added character with all those little expressions he was making, looks great just enough of a change to make it interesting without straying to far from previous as it should be, and now a new style for the next Mario maker and ton of new stages and items
@Enigk yup pretty much lol i usually use ,the game collection. Customer service and pricing is great. Thanks for chatting and thanks for posting it kinda put my mind at ease knowing I wasn’t alone
@Enigk Came this afternoon so must have been dispatched same as yours and must have forgotten to email me until this morning because I got a dispatch at 7:39 am lol
@Enigk just got a dispatch email at 8am this morning thank goodness I can now chill and wait on it arriving. Btw thanks again for posting and letting me know I wasn’t alone also for keeping me updated, it was appreciated have fun when it arrives
@Enigk still waiting I’m afraid hopefully tomorrow at least I know they are sending them out to those they emailed about delays, I’m glad you got dispatch confirmation il keep you posted
@Enigk you heard anything since ? I’m still waiting, which is no problem as I don’t care when I get it just that I do. I contacted live chat but it’s just as useful as a chocolate fire guard lol
@Enigk same here I ordered via the invite system so before general public and just got email around 5pm about delays due to high volume tho a mate who ordered later got dispatch email I’ve been searching to see if anyone was in same boat I was worried I was alone and just waiting on a cancellation email but should be cool probably those who ordered first are the ones who just want the game and they know we would just deal, I contacted live chat and they said everything was as it should be with order and secured, thanks for posting this
@Hyrule yeah definitely restock il keep eye on smyths if I see anything il post here I missed bayonetta from them to which was £10 cheaper I’m just hoping they add decent pre order bonus items which used to be free but obviously now paying a premium for the chance
Smyths had it for £79.99! I already secured it on my Nintendo so wasn’t constantly checking so I missed the £10 difference and what should have been the price on my Nintendo uk but is what it is , I don’t do shopto heard horror stories I’ve heard good aswell but one of things I like about my Nintendo is you can get extra stuff with platinum points and it forgoes delivery charge when bundled with any other orders bud that aside I don’t always mind paying the premium because 90% of the time they offer the best pre order bonus items, not always but peace of mind helps they always packed it nice and secure. It’s a bit expensive for this one tho I definitely think £79.99 (still expensive) but more people could have said I can stomach that if I didn’t have three houses limited I wouldn’t have gotten it
Limited edition sold in uk and Europe I saw it pop up at 1pm was already gone and yet no one has said go be quick and grab it so kinda put off because wanted to round out my fire emblem collector’s edition set
For those who have reserved "Xenoblade 3 Collector's Edition", only the software will be delivered on the release date (7/29) first. The benefits of "Xenoblade 3 Collector's Edition" ("Xenoblade 3 Nintendo Switch Card Case Steel Book Specification", "Original Art Book" Xenoblade 3 Collected Works ", outer box) are scheduled to be shipped after the fall of 2022
Translated from jp my Nintendo’s store I hope it’s not the same worldwide, obviously didn’t expect it to be shipping so soon, like there’s no communication between departments
@RupeeClock funnily enough I want it to be a code because I wanted it all in one ages ago . A case of sour grapes is all lol but truthfully I want it all on cart
@zapswitch . Totally everything down to the features included in the os to the build quality, it may have been bulky but it was well thought out fully featured and complete package. I think they went all out and got burned so with switch they played safe and now playing catch up to get it to where it’s required, hell it took them nearly 3 years to enable home led and then they don’t use it right same with the shop, it’s snappy yes but overwhelming due to the amount which I don’t think they expected. I do love it but as for overall finished product wiiu wins , it’s just a shame it never got the same support
GameCube probably but have to show some love to the wiiu. I know it failed but honestly it’s one of the best Nintendo systems, like GameCube it didn’t sell as expected. I loved the duel screen set up it made for some interesting games when used right. I wish switch would let you sync with another to replicate this feature
Got the striker pack (uk PEGI) physical but missed iX because limited run done that hoping now a 2nd was also announced maybe get another striker’ ish pack then 3 in summer hopefully it gets a physical in uk . I know it’s region free but I like my boxes to stay familiar it may sound silly but it’s just my opinion lol
@NinChocolate blue haired lady is a high school boy but what you think is a beard is part of the suit that extends up to the neck after fusing with a demon
@Liam_Doolan it’s my stupidity I was scrolling up and down and not left to right, the icons on my phone are a tad big only 2 fit so tried to scroll down to nothing and it was to the right. I just went to panic mode it’s to early and lack of sleep , that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it lol Sorry for the stupidity and any bother caused
@AlexOlney definitely, it feels like how splatoon made me feel first time round and it's the only fighting game that has me hooked as of late , couldn't get into pokken so didn't bother double dipping, they changed it to much from tekken rather than sliding pokemon aspect into tekken mechanics they tried to hard to change everything and it didn't work for me, not saying it's a bad game at all just not what I was expecting, where as arms I had no idea what to expect it didn't have anything to live up to so to speak, it's just a good game especially for a new ip in a already busy space
I'm really enjoying arms, it was a tad bare to begin with but like splatoon 1 you knew that when buying it, over the last few months it's got more refined and more like a finished product and a higher standard, plus unlike most fighters today your not getting charged through the nose for a extra character. On top regular in game events although not very competitive and more fun orientated , still a great addition, hopefully this new update will offer monthly competitive multiplayer or leagues and ranked games of sorts
@OorWullie , perfectly said. Only worth it if it's in it's lifetime like a psp for example, Iv got a Xperia play, ( got PS controller built on) stopped using it as a phone took it offline so to avoid updates and just load Roma to sd card after downloading emulators from google play,( one downside of iOS lol) But you're spot on. One dam expensive emulator lol
Don't agree with this, sure raspberry pi emulating retro games or at a push ( I haven't ) maybe mod the classic mini. But those developers aren't making new games for it , as for switch/Xbox/PS4 any system it's just not fair. That said some companies don't do themselves any favours releasing half finished games lol
Never used either characters before this , I got up rank 4 with brass before changing to coyle and got my lab level up to 25 . Every time I change from my original choice I loose a regret lol happens with splatoon aswell when I go with what I think will win over my preference
Anyone noticed after the update 5.0 when waking switch via the pro controller you no longer get the little haptic rumble, when it connects, I thought maybe that's what the update would fix but nope, it's not my controller because it's fine with games. Idk if it's just me, hence my asking??
Now for w101 sequel, not fussed for a port of the first because it may miss some of the gamepad features, that said I played 90/95% with pro controller so could be done, I'd maybe buy a 1+2 collection if they improved performance, wasn't unplayable but did suffer, still in my top 5 . Glad I took a chance after not being impressed by demo, heard so many things that were good I took a chance. Another franchise I'd like on switch is vanquish they could do with that what they did with bayonetta, platinum are action gods lol, mad world could make a comeback motion controller and all
I kinda wish I didn't get bayonetta first time around, I'm not going to double dip especially with one being downloadable, but bayonetta on the go is pretty awesome especially for those who didn't get the wiiu, the attention to detail with Easter eggs are great even more so in 2 , I think I preferred the challenge of the first one, felt like a achievement just to beat it on normal lol, 2 was more vibrant looked great and still dose,
I'm tempted to go get FIFA physical at Argos, £21.99, not heavily into FIFA but the on the go and split joycon options makes for good multiplayer especially for the more casual Fifa player, no question if I was a mega fan I'd obviously already have a PS4/Xbox one since Fifa has been non existent on Nintendo for years not counting 3ds
So do I register all my cards before march or will they be worth more afterwards, I don't understand the disparity between what you get now and what they are planning, it's got to be wrong,
After firmware update 2.3 or 3.0 can't remember exactly what it was but after that it changed channels and improved range and speed quite a bit Iv just been glad of that and didn't want to tinker lol because it really poor at launch ( range anywhere)
@FX102A , is there a digital bundle on eshop? Not been on yet? I'm sa,e as you prefer to wait and see plus if anything like hyrule the vinila game will be pretty leanthy if you're trying to 100% it
@FX102A I take it unlike the article suggests dlc is not included in the limited edition bundle, and it's just cd, cards and game, no way would it only be £65 if it included £17 season pass
Fire emblem limited edition bundle doesn't include the season pass dose it? Not in 🇬🇧 or from official nintendo store, would have been worth the price that way??
I want the game but timing is just bad , because already pre ordered Mario months ago, and this turns up 10 days before launch. I held off going elsewhere because Nintendo uk although normally a little more expensive, usually throw in a shirt, hat ,or even a poster like the standard version which makes no sense not to have it for both, because Iv already got Mario pre ordered and more interested in the xenoblade limited edition with art book in December . It's looking like il pick it up later ( standard ) t They could have included a season pass with the limited edition, it would have been worth the extra £20 depending on where your buying it. Amazon and Argos have the standard for £42
I'm still playing Zelda haven't even opened this yet, in a way kinda glad because I mind they gave splatoon its first big patch (not new stages) to change parts. After playing so long it felt jarring everything feeling different, even though for the best in long run
I bought this at launch but Zelda is to big lol not even got round to playing it yet , least it's a good problem 🎮😀 Loved the test punch, I was on the fence until I got to try it
