I owned the switch version for a couple of days before I sold it on eBay. I had no fun with it at all, felt like the track was moving rather than the kart. No feeling of speed compared to other kart games out there.
Mario maker 2 will be good. Initially it will be a huge success then after a few months people will stop playing and look for something else. This happened on the WII U which only had a few worthwhile games, whereas the switch has tonnes. Hopefully CTR will be infinitely better than the disappointing sonic racing.
Seriously though who actually watches intro videos. It's what turned me off the og PlayStation in favour of Nintendo as it was so style over substance. Gameplay is king but let's face it there are much better kart racing games than this one.
OK but I wish he would explain why they have released an inferior kart game than the 2012 sonic all stars racing transformed.
They should have just made transformed deluxe, improving frame rate and adding new tracks as sonic team racing is bang average. This game also seems slow, feels like your kart is standing still and the track is moving!
@Heavyarms55 I don't think they did it right as for me the Switch is too big to play handheld and too small to play tabletop. Hopefully the switch mini will solve the handheld play at least.
Well I've read a few reviews now and it seems the general consensus is its worse than the previous sonic all-stars, which I hated, so will definitely buy CTR instead.
@JaxonH ok so I guess I'm wrong on the sales due to people wanting to play on the go, but racing games need 60fps more than any genre. Just compare how mk8 and mk7 run v sonic racing on Wii u and 3ds.
Do you or a relative work for sumo as they dropped the ball on the previous game on both 3ds and Wii u?
I don't know why they bother, another bag of crap! How about Nintendo actually having a sale on some virtual console games or am I too much of a radical thinker?
It did well because in every game store crowds of people were playing the amazing monkey target and buying it on that mini game alone. The main game is not all that so they should just concentrate on monkey target.

Re: Guide: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For June And July
@Nintendo_Thumb yeah like I said it will sell loads but it won't have staying power like mario kart

Re: UK Charts: Team Sonic Racing Beats Big Names To Debut In Pole Position
@GuruOfGreatness only joking
Re: UK Charts: Team Sonic Racing Beats Big Names To Debut In Pole Position
@GuruOfGreatness least you can sell them on eBay mate 😀
Re: UK Charts: Team Sonic Racing Beats Big Names To Debut In Pole Position
@RupeeClock yeah I guess £19 is about right. Hoping CTR will be much better
Re: UK Charts: Team Sonic Racing Beats Big Names To Debut In Pole Position
@RupeeClock I know I bought it but I'm glad I didn't buy off eshop as mine is now selling on eBay!
Re: UK Charts: Team Sonic Racing Beats Big Names To Debut In Pole Position
It's bang average and will be out the charts in the next few weeks unlike mario kart which has been a staple in the top 10 for over 2 years now
Re: Review: American Fugitive - A Decent Homage To Grand Theft Auto That's A Little Underdone
Will buy it on sale as love these games and hopefully by that time some of the issues will be fixed
Re: Sumo Digital Explains Why Team Sonic Racing Doesn't Include Other Sega Characters
@Jevarel there was an article last week that they are not releasing any dlc for this game.

Re: Review: Team Sonic Racing - A Safe Effort Which Lags Well Behind Mario Kart 8
@Ttimer5 yeah get Garfield kart it's better than Mario kart!
Re: Review: Team Sonic Racing - A Safe Effort Which Lags Well Behind Mario Kart 8
Well I'm not surprised that it's a bit of a disappointment due to running at 30fps when we are all used to mk8, but will still buy it along with CTR.
Re: Random: The Internet Predicted The Switch Back In 2005, Kinda
@Heavyarms55 I don't think they did it right as for me the Switch is too big to play handheld and too small to play tabletop. Hopefully the switch mini will solve the handheld play at least.
Re: Random: The Internet Predicted The Switch Back In 2005, Kinda
That's nothing I predicted there would be a PS4 before the PS3 was released! Do I win a prize?
Re: Could A 'Switch Mini' Be Key To Nvidia's Financial Revival?
The switch mini needs to be 3ds sized or it won't be mini enough for me!
Re: Video: Can Team Sonic Racing On Switch Keep Pace With The PlayStation 4 Version?
Well I've read a few reviews now and it seems the general consensus is its worse than the previous sonic all-stars, which I hated, so will definitely buy CTR instead.
Re: Feature: What It’s Like To Run An Online Game Store In Japan
I buy all my USA retro games from a UK seller on eBay called the.lost.carts he has loads of classic games and sends them quick too.

@rob7979 that's tight!
Re: Video: Can Team Sonic Racing On Switch Keep Pace With The PlayStation 4 Version?
@KennyBania yeah 60fps is the best Jerry, the best!
Re: Video: Team Sonic Racing Launch Trailer Speeds Onto The Scene
@JaxonH ok I will eagerly await the review before making anymore comments on this game. Thank you for your informed opinion.

@JaxonH ok so I guess I'm wrong on the sales due to people wanting to play on the go, but racing games need 60fps more than any genre. Just compare how mk8 and mk7 run v sonic racing on Wii u and 3ds.
Do you or a relative work for sumo as they dropped the ball on the previous game on both 3ds and Wii u?
Re: Shakedown: Hawaii Update Will Bring Features And Fixes To Switch Soon
@TechaNinja or me?
Re: Shakedown: Hawaii Update Will Bring Features And Fixes To Switch Soon
@TechaNinja who me?
Re: Video: Team Sonic Racing Launch Trailer Speeds Onto The Scene
30 FPS on switch is a fookin joke in this day and age especially when Mario kart 8 came out in 2014 and ran at 60 on the Wii u
Re: Shakedown: Hawaii Update Will Bring Features And Fixes To Switch Soon
@USWITCH64 ok thanks
Re: Shakedown: Hawaii Update Will Bring Features And Fixes To Switch Soon

Re: Super Monkey Ball Creator Has No Idea Why The Game Was So Popular
It did well because in every game store crowds of people were playing the amazing monkey target and buying it on that mini game alone. The main game is not all that so they should just concentrate on monkey target.
