My Switch is the first console I've owned where I've gone totally digital. About 90% on Xbox and I'm more than happy this way.

I can never understand the fuss about physical releases.

Quality game. Have it on Switch and Xbox.

Have this on my Xbox, when I picked it up in a sale.
Not played a great deal of it, but it seemed decent enough.

@Anti-Matter streaming games IS the future. Just because you refuse to accept how things are going does not mean it's wrong.
Just out of interest, how many here still buy physical music or films as opposed to Netflix, Spotify etc...

@Anti-Matter I'd love to live in your world, for like 10 minutes or something just to see what it's like.

@LUIGITORNADO you win a copy of Fortnite. Congratulations.

I give it 8 comments before someone says they hate Fortnite.

An obligatory I don't like Smash comment that gets negged to death.
Honestly, I really don't see the appeal.

All I want is a new Nintendo pocket football club 😔

@Heavyarms55 now don't let this go to your head 😂😂

And today's award for bashing Fortnite on NL in a completely unrelated article goes to......
Drum roll
@Heavyarms55
Ta dah!!

FFS, an article on a Switch game winning an award and people still use it as an opportunity to hate on Fortnite!
Never played Fortnite nor care to, but come on, give it a rest.

@MysticGengar absolutely agree mate. The whole DS range has been my favourite gaming system for years. At 45 with work and family commitments it is my go to for gaming and the amount of quality games would keep me going till I died without ever touching my Switch or Xbox.
What annoys me on this site is the amount of hypocrites who say they can't touch their 3DS after playing Switch but will continue to spout the graphics don't matter bollocks.
Well at least there's some of us who just enjoy a great gaming machine.
/Rant over

@Anti-Matter Duh!
I was being sarcastic.

It's not adult and violent enough for me 🙄

A cultural icon. RIP

Party like it's 1999

Brilliant game. If you've never played it, please buy it. I love the sense of progression in this game.
Will be triple dipping.

The "I hate Fortnite" comments on NL is almost as predictable as the physical release or Panic button commenters.
Say something new.

Well after all my banging on about not subscribing, guess who subscribed. In my defense I was a touch drunk and it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Played about a total of 20 minutes NES games but trying to get my money's worth on Mario Kart.

I'm at an age where short games or games I can play in short bursts appeal to me (looks at backlog of games with a minimum 20 hours investment each with a tear in eye) From what I've heard the story has an emotional impact, which I'm all for.
Tempted.

@clvr it's been on Xbox for ages.

Well this will be the third time I buy this game.
Great news.

There will always be a market for physical, but digital is the future.
Reminds me of that king who thought he could hold back the tide.
What a silly Cnut.

I was initially interested in this until I found out it was just a boss rush game.

Well I saw him play live in Newcastle last night.
Needless to say it was amazing and he is a god.

Dear god, there's some real sissies here.

Nice. I love the sound of the marimba.

@Anti-Matter you have either not read or understood my comment properly.
I couldn't care less for the new COD but I don't get myself in a fury just cos it's number one in a chart.
I'm not bothered if a game is mainstream or not, I'll play games I like.
You seem to think only adult things can be mainstream, do I need to spell out how wrong that line of thinking is?

What surprises me is people still get irate when a AAA blockbuster game, with huge advertising and massive fan base reaches number one.
You know, it's quite easy to not get flustered and just go and play the games you like.

In years to come articles will be written about how good the Wii U was.
That I'm convinced of. Great console.

Most of the time I only frequent the comments section as I get a perverse joy from getting angry at fanboy comments, this one is actually making me think of never coming back. I effing hate fanboys, some of the NDF nonsense here is mind boggling.

@Sculptor idiot

Demon's crystals would be nice on my Switch but at that price! It's only 4 quid on Xbox and I paid 2 when it was in a sale.

Sony, closing the stable door as they watch the horse bolt off in to the sunset.

I was never interested in this, but recently I've been hearing good things about the game.
Tempted now.

@Rika_Yoshitake erm, shouldn't have Nintendo communicated this to the consumer from the start?

The Vita will live on in the modding scene.
Great handheld, shame Sony had no idea what to do with it.

@Anti-Matter you really do bore me.

If it's going to annoy fanboys, I'm all for it.
Some of us just want to see the world burn.

Can I just put this to bed, the game is not hard! Challenging, yes. It doesn't care for you, absolutely. Rewarding, most definitely.
If you get it, great. If not, fair enough (but you're wrong 😉)

Finished SMO and never went back. First time I've done that with a 3D Mario game.

@Deanster101 of course you can 😂

"Oh, Nintendo"
Freeze frame of everyone laughing
Credits roll.

Vote with your wallets, people. Nintendo will soon change the service if nobody pays.
But fanboys will buy anything that's thrown at them.
Honestly, if Nintendo said you have to buy your own treadmill and power the service with 10 hours hard running a day, fanboys would argue Nintendo are helping people stay fit.
Consumer power is still a thing, exercise it!

Provide an adequate and robust service and people might just stop grumbling.

2018 and some people are going to experience O&S for the first time.
Enjoy!

Nintendo, come back to me when you have a proper online service.
Sticking to my guns here, I can live without Splatoon and Mario Kart online.

Stick this where the sun don't shine.
Seriously, are Nintendo so blind to not see people would pay more for a full service.

That's a bit more like it, Nintendo.
