@Decapre Resi Evil games require you to put some imagination work in though. What's around the corner, what's not. If you're bored, you aren't playing them right...
So many Atlus limited editions for me to track down. I have Persona Q, then I've got Rodea, Harvest Moon, Bravely Second and Kid Icarus all in limited edition on 3DS. God knows how many more I now need to track down.
As someone trying to collect every Switch game, this is the first week which is killing me. All those amiibo, three Switch retail releases, the pro controller and the console bundle... I need more money!
What is wrong with them? The console is selling like hot cakes! Those who actively don't want these games to come to Nintendo consoles doesn't care about Nintendo. Same old argument.
Sadly Ever Oasis was the first Nintendo UK Store pre-order I didn't pick up in over a year, purely because of how expensive next month will be with Splatoon, all the peripherals, the many amiibo and Pikmin. Oh, and the fact I'm moving house...
Nintendo-only gamers (me included) were never not rejuvenated and energetic. That was a narrative spun by casuals who know little about gaming and gaming history and who have the other consoles because they have FIFA, COD and the other forgettable titles which get by on cinematic cutscenes in their trailers.
E3 has been excellent as a Nintendo fan. Even if COD and Monster Hunter have blanked the Switch, which isn't good enough on their parts, Nintendo's exclusives wipe the floor with the opposition, again. Zelda and Mario should be getting the one-two for Game of the Year - only a dishonest panel can stop Zelda getting number one unless Mario is perfect.
What a glorious announcement. Most here won't even remember Metroid Prime 3, such is the lack of games knowledge in youngsters at the moment. Hope this one introduces them and gets them to go back through the Trilogy.
@PorllM Answered your own question there. Nintendo should be throwing money at them to get the game on their system and not have ANOTHER multiplat exclusive bypass Nintenndo.

Re: Introducing The SNES-Themed New Nintendo 3DS XL
With this and the Samus one for the rest of the year, my New 3DS XL console collection isn't getting finished any time soon...
Re: Pokémon Gold and Silver Getting Boxed 3DS Releases In Europe
@MoonKnight7 Not in the UK, but they did get their own 2DS console variants.
Re: Colourful Nintendo Switch Splatoon 2 Edition Bundle is Heading to North America Soon
Makes no sense that the UK got this with the red and blue joy-con..
I have all three UK editions nonetheless, though. Collecting goals...
Re: Disgaea 5 Complete Passes 100,000 Sales on Nintendo Switch
Got it at launch but not played yet. Impressive for such a niche game.
Re: Behold, It's the Pikachu Snapchat Lens!
I'm 23, good-looking, and love Nintendo. You should hire me.
Re: FIFA 18 Sales Are Important for Future EA Support of Nintendo Switch
@daveh30 NHL just has nowhere near the popularity of FIFA though...
Re: FIFA 18 Sales Are Important for Future EA Support of Nintendo Switch
@RainbowGazelle It's not Wii U 2 though. The games are coming.
Re: FIFA 18 Sales Are Important for Future EA Support of Nintendo Switch
Will believe when I see it. But FIFA is looking good. Please continue.

Re: Splatoon 2 Maintains UK Momentum as Miitopia Makes Chart Debut in Top 10
Would have thought Pikmin and Brain Training would do better than Miitopia...
Re: Editorial: amiibo Has Stalled, Because Nintendo is Forgetting What Makes It Special
Missing a few second generation Splatoon ones and the second Super Mario range.
I love them. Working on a wall display for them all.
Re: Etrian Odyssey V Launch Edition Will Come With An Art Book And Music CD
So many Atlus limited editions for me to track down. I have Persona Q, then I've got Rodea, Harvest Moon, Bravely Second and Kid Icarus all in limited edition on 3DS. God knows how many more I now need to track down.
Re: Review: Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star (Switch)
So, just to clarify, are there 3 physical games released on Switch in the UK today?

Re: Trademark Application Has Fans Dreaming of the Nintendo 64 Classic Mini
@lemonjellydude Zelda, Mario, Pokemon and GoldenEye alone made the N64 THE generation for a tonne of people my age.
Re: Trademark Application Has Fans Dreaming of the Nintendo 64 Classic Mini
I think they should do a Game Boy version next. People would lose their minds.
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Hints That Miiverse Is Coming To An End Soon
The wow factor of Miiverse hit home in ZombiU where developer messages and leaderboards appeared on the walls. That was incredible.
Don't know of any other games which did something similar?
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Hints That Miiverse Is Coming To An End Soon
The game help and tips were the best part, the doodles were a bit rubbish...
Re: The Smaller New Nintendo 3DS is Discontinued Globally - An Era Ends
@Gridatttack Black the rarest?!
Re: The Smaller New Nintendo 3DS is Discontinued Globally - An Era Ends
Got every UK variant of this apart from the Pokemon Alpha Sapphire one. Anyone got one?

Re: Sports Direct Buys 25.75 Percent Stake In Embattled UK Retail Chain GAME
GAME ate up Electronics Boutique and Gamestation and the country's game offerings are worse off for it.
Re: Sports Direct Buys 25.75 Percent Stake In Embattled UK Retail Chain GAME
They never learned their lesson and sorted out their prices. I much prefer shopping in Cex nowadays.
Re: Nintendo Unveils Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Dual Pack and Fan Editions
Ow, my wallet. These will be like gold dust so collectors need to go for all three right away. Hell of a hit.
Re: Japanese Pokémon GO Players Are Outspending Their U.S. Counterparts
Spend a bit here and there, mainly during events. Not done so for a few months now though.
Re: WWE 2K18 is Confirmed for Nintendo Switch
First WWE game for Nintendo since WWE 13 on the Wii. What a result. Exactly the third party support we need. FIFA and WWE the same year.
Re: Nintendo Switch Hackers Claim to Have Made Key First Step
Ha! Nerds!
Re: Guide: How To Beat Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's Trial Of The Sword: Beginner Trials
I've managed to get as far as eleven and will pick it up after work. Gets tough with limited weapons when you reach the lizalfos stages.

What is wrong with them? The console is selling like hot cakes! Those who actively don't want these games to come to Nintendo consoles doesn't care about Nintendo. Same old argument.
Re: Beleaguered UK Retailer GAME Blames Lack Of Switch Stock For Profit Warning
They just never sorted their pricing out. Not a single lesson learned from their disaster two years ago.
Re: The LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game is Coming To Nintendo Switch
Yay
Re: Snake Pass Celebrates Summer Solstice With 40 Percent Discount And A Hint Of Upcoming DLC
@PlayedNSlayed It's less than a tenner, go for it
Re: Snake Pass Celebrates Summer Solstice With 40 Percent Discount And A Hint Of Upcoming DLC
Definitely getting it at that price. My first DL game after Snipperclips. I'm going to get them all!
Re: Extra Nintendo Switch Stock Drives Game Sales in UK, as Ever Oasis Struggles on Debut

Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Dismisses Threat To Switch From Microsoft's Xbox One X
So good to see Nintendo kicking bum again
Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Summary From E3 2017 - Day One
E3 has been excellent as a Nintendo fan.

Re: Video: Samus Fans Lose Their Minds at Metroid Prime 4 Reveal in Nintendo NY Store
Nintendo NY is heaven on Earth for me. Love it.
Re: First Impressions: Beginning Our Journey With Super Mario Odyssey on Nintendo Switch
Best time of the year. Love being a Nintendo fan.
But the worst time of the year is watching all the journalists get to play the game before us.
I want October now!
Re: Deals: Fresh Splatoon 2 Merchandise Floods The Nintendo UK Store
Got all the main bits on pre-order. Damn, I love and hate Nintendo collecting all at the same time...
Re: PC Game Streaming Service Rainway Confirms Switch As A Supported Platform
Seems very unlikely. Nintendo are the most strict when it comes to handling apps like these.
Re: Super Mario Odyssey to Launch on 27th October
Looks perfect, and is right around the corner. Result.
Re: Thank Samus, Metroid Prime 4 Has Been Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
What a glorious announcement. Most here won't even remember Metroid Prime 3, such is the lack of games knowledge in youngsters at the moment. Hope this one introduces them and gets them to go back through the Trilogy.

Re: Sledgehammer Boss Pours Cold Water Over Call Of Duty: WWII For Switch Rumours
No excuses. Not good enough. Why are Nintendo letting them get away with it?

Re: No Really, Ubisoft Is Going To Release A New Wii Game In 2017
As a Nintendo collector, I thought I was nearing the end of my Wii collection.
Not so fast.
