Saw it in CEX a couple of weeks ago. Thought it was one of their own print outs that they do or a faded cover at first but was the correct quality paper.
I was hoping we'd eventually get a 'Rare Replay -Nintendo Games Edition' on Switch. It would easily sell millions but guess Nintendo wont allow this now so to drip feed Rare n64 games gradually on the Expansion pass instead.
Active development means nothing except they've at least started. If Switch lifespan is extended then we might see it on Switch but more likely it will be a Switch 2 launch title in a couple of years or so.
Having owned a LG OLED TV for a few years and suffered slight screen burn from playing BOTW and Diablo 3 a lot before I knew it was a thing (YES it is real)...
Does the OLED model have an 'OLED Panel Settings' option where you can switch on 'Screen Shift' and more importantly 'Clear Panel Noise' which cleans the screens pixels?
No point paying for expansion pak if that is the case. I opted for both USA N64 and GameCube back in the day because games ran faster and were full screen.
I used to collect to keep but with Switch I buy, play then trade to fund more games.
I've still got my USA N64 and Cube. If only I'd got UK ones back in the day as be so much easier to sell at CEX. Starting to sell them on eBay now as having not played them in 20 years they are just taking up space.
I also "collect moulds, spores and fungus" -aka movie and TV show figures. The struggle with space is real.
Nintendo would be stupid to change track for it's next phase. They need to follow PlayStation's lead on console naming in future. Make it simple for the general consumer.
As for Amazon. It will be down to unexpected Brexit costs no doubt. Their supplier has to pay more now to export things to UK. Rather than the buyer paying the import fees. That or it is just a placeholder price for now.

Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection Pre-Orders Go Live, Box Art Also Revealed
Have they confirmed that it includes the original game voice's too?

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Has Been Updated To Version 2.0.0, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
I've played through the 8 courses twice now. I'm in UK as was available since 11pm with my bought download code from shopto for £16.85.
Graphics are lovely in my opinion. Good to play some old (new) tracks on my Switch finally.
Re: Konami Announces Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection For Switch
Totally Radical Dude. With this and Shredder's Revenge it is a good year to be an 80's Turtles fan!
Pizza Time!

I still want Wooly World on Switch.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Is Finally Getting DLC
MK9 is Mario Kart Tour People.
That is why it is now part of the dlc. They even show the 8 game boxes the dlc tracks are coming from (obv not including mk8).
So MK10 is the next entry on Switch 2 in 2026. Yay.

Re: Mario Kart 9 Is "In Active Development" And Comes With A "New Twist", Analyst Claims

Re: Poll: So, Do You Think Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Will Actually Release In 2022?
Splatoon July 2022.
Rabbids September 2022
BOTW2 October 2022
Pokémon November 2022.
Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate Nintendo's 2021?
Pretty boring in my opinion.
I'm hoping 2022 will be like 2017 again...
New 3D Mario (pretty please)
New 3D Zelda
New Rabbids
New Splatoon
And maybe another surprise.
Re: Talking Point: Should The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Library Expand Faster?
They should give you option of the AC dlc or something else of similar value coz as it is it is overpriced for those without Animal Crossing.
Re: Nintendo Switch Just Had Its Biggest Sales Week Ever In The UK
Do we have the actual numbers?
Re: UK Charts: Black Friday Deals See Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Back At Number One
Mario Kart 9 is already out but it is a mobile game (Mario Kart Tour). We'll see 10 on Nintendo Switch 2.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Has Now Outsold Mario Kart Wii
Mario Kart Tour is MK9. We'll see MK10 on Switch 2. They might even do MK: Ultimate.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Price?
There should be option to pick an older free Switch Game to the value of the AC DLC...
Unless you've got Animal Crossing the Free DLC is worthless so feels like we are being over charged.
Re: Hardware Review: Nintendo Switch OLED - The Screen's The Star

Does the OLED model have an 'OLED Panel Settings' option where you can switch on 'Screen Shift' and more importantly 'Clear Panel Noise' which cleans the screens pixels?
Not sure I've read anywhere that it does?
Will the new Dock be available seperately?
Re: Sakurai Invites Everyone To Watch Smash's Final Reveal, Whether You Play The Game Or Not
It could be Sakurai as a playable fighter. His final contribution to his final Smash game?
Re: Mario Kart Tour Adds Tanooki Mario And The Super Leaf In Its Next Update
I still think Tour is in reality MK9 and the next one we'll see on Switch 2 will be MK10.
Re: Uh-Oh, Nintendo Switch Online's N64 Games Might Be 50Hz In Europe
No point paying for expansion pak if that is the case. I opted for both USA N64 and GameCube back in the day because games ran faster and were full screen.
Will we get Lylat Wars instead of Star Fox then?
Re: Gallery: Here's Another Look At Nintendo's Switch OLED Model "In The Wild"
Smyth's Winter catalogue also lists a neon version of the OLED Switch so guessing white dock with neon joycons rather than a neon dock too?
Re: 'WATA Certified' Copy Of Sonic The Hedgehog Sells For Record Price
I have Metroid Prime 2 ntsc u/c version still sealed. Is it worth a grand? Lol
Re: Talking Point: It's A Golden Era For Video Game Music Fans, So How Do You Listen?
I recommend you all listen to 'The Console' on Scala radio. Premiers every Saturday and features 45 minutes of videogame music old and new.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Has Now Surpassed Four Million Sales In Japan
This is why we won't see MK10 til Switch 2. Guessing MK Tour is actually the 9th 'proper' entry in the series, maybe.
They won't do dlc as it is the Ultimate version of MK8 too.
Re: Poll: Why Do You Collect Video Games?
I used to collect to keep but with Switch I buy, play then trade to fund more games.
I've still got my USA N64 and Cube. If only I'd got UK ones back in the day as be so much easier to sell at CEX. Starting to sell them on eBay now as having not played them in 20 years they are just taking up space.

-aka movie and TV show figures. The struggle with space is real.
Re: Doctor Who: The Edge Of Reality Arrives In September Starring Jodie Whittaker And David Tennant
@nessisonett
Doctor Who already did that in 2017 with Missy and The Master.
Loki was pretty much good Dr. Who. Something the current Era is not. But hoping this game is good and worth buying.
Re: "It's Like A Contra Game On Acid": Weapon Of Choice DX Runs 'N' Guns Onto Switch This Fall
I'd rather play Contra. Looks boring and sparse in comparison.
Re: Talking Point: Where Does The Switch OLED Announcement Leave The Rumoured Switch Pro?
Mario Kart 9 (Mario Kart Ultimate?) will be the major launch title for Switch 2. That's why we'll never see it on the original Switch. Roll on 2023.
Re: Talking Point: Where Does The Switch OLED Announcement Leave The Rumoured Switch Pro?
Switch Pro will end up being Switch 2.
Nintendo would be stupid to change track for it's next phase. They need to follow PlayStation's lead on console naming in future. Make it simple for the general consumer.
Re: Nintendo Switch OLED Model Vs. Standard Switch / Switch Lite: Full Tech Specs Comparison
So glad it is not a Pro as the current models are doing so well. I only play in docked mode so not for me.
Switch 2 will be the 'pro' In a couple of years and I don't mind waiting.
Re: Here's How Nintendo Is Improving Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Over The Wii Original
They need to make final boss much harder and remove the need to fight that other tedious one 3 times.
Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online SNES And NES Service With Five More Titles
Joe and Mac is great. A fun 2 player but very easy. One of my favourites back in the day. Will give them all a go.
Re: Soapbox: Be Happy, This Is The True Golden Age Of Gaming
Not even gonna read the article but as I'm in my early 40's the golden age of gaming is 1992 to 1998.
SNES and the early days of the N64.
Re: Katy Perry's Pokémon Song 'Electric' Is Out Now
I liked that but I do enjoy a bit of cheese.
If only they used the furry version of Pikachu from the movie. That would have looked better in my opinion.
Re: Talking Point: Should Nintendo Do More DLC For Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Or Just Release Mario Kart 9 Already?
I'm guessing MK10 is next console game for Switch 2 with 9 being the mobile game.
They might go down the ultimate route though with all tracks included from the past.
They should give us a port of the Arcade version to keep us going.
Re: Free Super Mario Party Update Gives Massive Boost To Online Play
Too late for me.
Sold the game over a year ago.
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge Confirmed For Switch, New Trailer
Been waiting 29 years for this. Can't wait.
Re: Talking Point: Is The New Switch Lite Blue, Or Purple?
Tardis Blue (11th Doctor Style).
Re: Whisker Squadron Has Serious Star Fox Vibes, But With Cats
Looks better than Starfox Zero.
And no doubt will play better.
Re: Random: Stop Scrolling And Brighten Your Day With These Adorable Kirby Stop-Motion Videos
These are lovely.
Re: Anniversary: Nintendo Switch Launched Four Years Ago Today
I'd love another year like the 1st.
Botw2, odyssey2, rabbids 2 would be great this year.
Re: Nintendo Gives Us A Look At The Switch Box Art For Zelda: Skyward Sword HD
@JasmineDragon
Good to know. I don't have any drift issues but my friend does snd he got his at launch.
Re: Nintendo Gives Us A Look At The Switch Box Art For Zelda: Skyward Sword HD
@ukaskew
They've only done it free of charge coz you were within 1st year of purchase.
For those who bought it a year or more ago Nintendo expect you to pay to fix things.
Re: Nintendo Ignored Zelda's 35th Anniversary This Weekend, But Fans Are Celebrating In Style
Mario's 35th comes to an end on 31st March. They simply didn't want to overshadow the end of that celebration with 3D World.
April onwards will be Zelda's 35th. Skyward Sword Being the first big release.
I just hope they don't forget Metroid later in the year.
Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Hits Switch This July Alongside Themed Joy-Con
Once Mario 35th has ended expect a full 35th announcement for Zelda. Skyward Sword is just the start.
Hopefully they will remember it is Metroid's 35th Anniversary too this year with at least Metroid Prime Trilogy HD.
Re: Gallery: Geeks Line's NES/Famicom Anthology Is The Most Exhaustive Look At The Console Yet
You could just buy the normal edition for around £34 from Amazon. I got it 2 months ago.
Got all their Nintendo books (NES/SNES/N64/Cube). Hoping they do Wii and Wii U next.
Re: Random: This Zoomed-Out Speedrun Of Snake Rattle 'N' Roll Shows Cool Behind-The-Scenes Secrets
Loved this game as a kid.
I did get to the top but could never kill the final big foot boss. I always ran out of time.
Great to see the levels all interconnected.
Rare Replay Nintendo Edition please Microsoft. It will sell millions on Switch.

Re: Gallery: Super Mario 3D World's Bowser's Fury Mode Looks Stunning In New Screenshots
I would have gave Bowsers Fury a go if it had been a payable dlc option for previously playing any 3D Mario title on my Switch.
Having already played 3D world to death on the Wii U I'll pass. But it is great for those who never had a Wii U.
