@Moroboshi876 I think you'll find it's sold pretty well. Hard to find a physical copy now so glad I bought it months ago. Obviously it's been reduced as online multiplayer is on the way and they want more people to experience this gem of a game.
Leigh Loveday, a writer and designer who joined Rare in the '90s, has used the game's Switch Online release to reflect on the company's Nintendo era - noting how Rare was "immensely pleased" that it could team up with its old once more to bring the bird and bear to a new Nintendo generation: Old what? Partner? Master? Owner?
@BloodNinja or just transfer over all your eshop games onto the new Switch just like when I bought a Wii U and transferred all my Wii Shop games on to it.
My uncle works for Nintendo and the new twist is a Megabomb that you throw forward, a drill then comes out of the front of your Kart and you drill through the crater you just created underground and try to come up near the finish line. Obviously while underground no weapons can get you, it works great I've played it!
1 Dread (by a long way) 2 Cruis'n Blast 3 Bowser's Fury Not much else worth mentioning, still waiting for the avalanche of first party games we were promised when Nintendo could concentrate on developing for one console instead of two!
I love my Switch, have so many games in my backlog that I don't see the point in another console. Just praying that whenever a more powerful upgraded Switch comes along it will be backwards compatible, they'd be crazy not to!
@twztid13 never seen it and I've died so many times. Ah I thought that pic was from the credits at the end, my mistake it's just the explosion of her each time she dies.

No thanks, wouldn't pay £3.49
Re: Poll: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
Feels like a new Pokémon game comes out every month, give it a rest and release a new F Zero, Wave Race or 1080!
Re: SEGA Goes Big On Nostalgia For "Project Sonic '22"
Forget endlessly milking Sonic (and constantly messing it up) and give us Daytona and Sega Rally!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 22nd)

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 8th)
Super Mario Odyssey, Captain Toad and Tetris 99 for me, still hoping they bring back old themes I've missed first time round.

MK8D for when I'm at home
MKWT for when I'm out and about
Happy Days!

Hallelujah, maybe it will stop all the tantrums from the snowflakes crying every time World Tour gets a new character or vehicle!
Re: Metacritic Reveals The Highest-Scoring Nintendo Switch Games Of 2021

@Kidfunkadelic83 If you're in the UK Argos are selling Tetris 99 on cart with 12 months NSO for £19.99
Re: Rumour: Metroid Prime Switch Remaster Is "Wrapped Up" According To Industry Insider
Should release this for Christmas to make up for AW being delayed, nothing else of interest to me for Chrimbo!
Re: Nintendo Reminds Us Of Switch's Upcoming Releases, And 2022's Looking Pretty Mighty
Just AW and BOTW2 to look forward to then, and as it doesn't have a title yet I can see it slipping to 2023!
Re: Rumour: Metroid Prime Switch Remaster Is "Wrapped Up" According To Industry Insider
I'd gladly buy Metroid Prime on Switch, as long as it controls the way it was developed. No motion control for me thanks!

Re: Random: Metroid Dread's Zero Suit Samus Model Is Rather Detailed Up Close
Cheers NL for spoiling the game I've yet to complete!
Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Major Upcoming Switch Games
Only interested in BOTW 2, Advance Wars and Metroid Prime 4, got a huge backlog anyway so I can wait.
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For November And December 2021
Nothing there for me, we need a game to replace the delayed Advance Wars. Time to roll out Metroid Prime!
Re: Reminder: Tetris 99 Is Hosting A Metroid Dread Crossover Event This Weekend
@majinx07 Fire Emblem is on there, I got it a few weeks ago
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 30th)
Unlocked the Dread theme in Tetris 99, will probably be playing the brilliant Cruis'n Blast (so much fun!), I highly recommend it if you're undecided.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Mario Party Superstars
Wouldn't purchase this if it got 10/10 across the board. Same reason I won't get Street Fighter, joycons are far too fragile!
Re: Tetris 99 Is Hosting A Metroid Dread Crossover Event This Weekend
Aw yeah this is the one I've been waiting for!
