@DrJiggle My "nirvana" moment with this game is through the third (or the fourth) mid-boss, when the music gets so epic I barely can handle the controller.
@Shiryu
Man, this review is beautiful. Thank you so much!
This game is a blast, I remember beating it on the GC at easy without continues, in about 20 hours of attempts...
You may sign in with the Nintendo Account that purchased the membership, but I highly doubt you can download your digital Splatoon 2 on another Switch without any additional cost. Come on
Oh, fifth! Nice to see my name here, thank you very much! @Spoony_Tech it gives me error, too. Let's be friends in the traditional way. Give me your friend code and I'll add you later, please.
@Spoony_Tech I'll try to send you the friend request later today Give me your friend code anyway, if the game keeps with errors we'll be friends via the Switch OS. My next table will be Excalibur, which is 5€ along with Epic Quest
@Spoony_Tech Elusion mastery is when you throw the ball through the bumpers on the left and then immediately throw it on the ghost ramp using the upper right flipper. But doing it 10 times on purpose is just too risky.
@Spoony_Tech
Thank you very much. Yeah I'm good at this table and now I'm third with 1.377 millions, this will be my final score because today I can't play.
Do you know an easy way to get two extra balls in little time?
There's the 6 combo which is tricky sometimes, then the 10x bonus but this is lengthy. And then Whisper who I think gives it randomly, am I correct?
Is there another way?
@SwitchVogel
You should definitely write an article about it.
Truth is, this game was incomplete until yesterday, they clearly wanted to be on Switch in time for the Holiday season, but it was a disappointing step back.
Well the game now is a blast.
the frame rate upgrade in portable mode makes it almost an entirely new game, that is.
Now this bad boy is without a doubt the best pinball game of all time with its overwhelming amount of options and modes.
I've already downloaded the Portal table, seems nice.
Then I'll pick the pack with Epic Quest and Excalibur, which is my favourite.
I didn't experience any of these issues and feel my Switch is stable enough. Should I update it to the new version? What if the Switch becomes too stable, to the point I'm unable to even undock it? Dunno...
Actually I think the eShop is fine, apart from lack of genres categories.
The games pages open very fast, with screens, videos, file size, description, features, all accessible.
The special offers have their own spot, which is fine. Open the game you are interested in and see when the deal ends.
Then there is the Coming soon section which I love so much, it delivers almost every day with new games thrown in all of a sudden.
Ok they could make a proper Demo section too, instead of leave it hiding in the Search function.
And let's not forget the news section of the console main menu, all devs are free to have their own page and I can't see how they could get more visibility than this. Heck, look at Violett's spam about the levels playthroughs.
As it is, it's not fine by any means. This is an unfinished game, a step back. They wanted to be on Switch in time for Christmas but in the end, they messed it up. To be fair, I'm glad they gave away 3 tables for free, but I'm glad I've spent zero euros so far, too. Let's see what happens in summer, and play dozens of polished games meanwhile.
the difference between phisical and digital is right, because for example: I've just preordered a retail copy of Kirby trading back two games to Gamestop which I bought for 10€ each. Then I'll have to give 10€ more to get Kirby, for a total of 30€.
Otherwise if I wanted to buy it digital I'd spent 60€ without a chance of ever selling it, so this would've rewarded me more.
This way I'll still get 0,60€ discount from the retail copy of Kirby, which is better than the complete nothing you get from, say, Sony and Microsoft.
Was the Club Nintendo better than this program? It was, I miss it a lot, but I'm not complaining for something they absolutely don't owe us
I think when the "played for the first time 1 day ago" thing will be gone, the system will start showing the total amount of play time again. Still a rookie mistake. Oh Nintendo you just can't do things right OS wise
@Dom Yeah, it's there. But it releases tomorrow, no reason to not include it in the week line up along with the others. Not that I care too much tbh, but I think it would be fair to edit and give it its visibility. This way it seems it's a doscounted game like the others that have been out for months.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE In a week with 22 releases or so you can't expect 22 masterpieces. I think Mulaka and Outlast will score good enough, and Little Triangle seems decent, too.

Second place is out of reach, too.
Gonna fight for the bronce, maybe

Once the portable 60fps update kicks in, I will throw a lot of money to them. No doubts about it. Until then, though, I'll play other stuff.
