I bought this along with my switch 2 thinking it was a launch title (I need to learn to read), I've not really touched my switch since launch as this game is all I'm looking forward to. Does anyone know when the embargo lifts?
@yohn777 I believe you can change them in the console itself but not the game, I only want to change them in the game not for everything on the console.
@SoIDecidedTo I played around 3 or 4 games and won once! I do have a total disinterest in poker so maybe this is why? The fact is, I just don't understand it enough (this game or poker) to put any level of effort in. At least I helped an independent dev by purchasing the game though.
I bought this game off the back of NL's review, and can honestly say I don't get it! I've tried but just can't gel with it, it's certainly not for me, but fair play to those who like it.
Nearly ordered a copy until I saw the shipping fees! Hopefully a UK supplier steps in at some point, if not it looks like it'll be a digital purchase for me.
Noticed it says 'sold out' on the UK site, but also has the black banner at the top saying 'available later this week'. Have the scalpers been already or is it not live yet? I need one of these but not at an inflated scalper price!
EDIT;
Nevermind, I managed to get one 2 minutes after posting this 🤦🏼♂️
@Daniel36 that's how I felt and hadn't touched it since launch, but I jumped back in over the weekend and it grabbed me! It's an epic game. Maybe you need to give it another go?
@Freek that is amazing mate, Thank you. I was more of a Playstation guy in the 90s, but my brother was the Nintendo guy, he has a few SNES and N64 collections but is dwarfed by yours 😂 thanks again mate, that's really impressive, my hat is off.
@carlos82 I'd like to hear more stories like this, by people who've actually played it rather than reading people's thoughts that haven't played it. I've preoredered the physical so hopefully they'll be a decent update out by then, but either way, I'm looking forward to playing it.
@DTfeartheBEARD that's exactly my take on it, I have the split pad attached to my Oled but when my Satisfye arrives I'll be switching. I need that rumble...
@RupeeClock you could try Argos for the Oled Switch as that has free shipping, also try Simply Games for the Special edition Metroid, also free shipping 👍🏻 can't help with the Amiibo though as that's sold out everywhere!
Mario 3D World, can't wait to try that as I missed out first time. And Metroid Prime 4, I need to see this game, BotW 2 is a close second in the TBA list.
@echoplex I agree, I quit galaxy 2 for the same reasons. Hopefully it'll be a standalone physical release next year, I'm not a fan of digital games so the idea of DLC is off putting.

Re: Mario Kart World Has Been Updated To Version 1.1.1, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@Suketoudara never knew! Will this only change the mapping on Mario Kart and not the system as a whole?
Re: Mario Kart World Has Been Updated To Version 1.1.1, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@Picola-Wicola I agree with you 100% mate, it seems such an oversight and an easy fix, let's hope it's in the next update 🤞🏼

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch 2 To Launch In June With 3-Phase Software Plan
All depends on a new Mario game for me, if there's one at launch (3D Mario) then it's a day one, if not I'll wait.

I've used them before so they're legit.
