Re: Feature: Flicking Through The Debut Issue Of Switch Player

olrodlegacy

I once had Star Letter in both ONM and NGamer in the same month, what an achievement..

Long for the days of print mags again. I'll be sorting subscriptions for Nintendo Force and Switch Player when I get home.

Got complete collections of ONM, NGamer and nRevolution - hunting down the remaining ONMs (I have 1, 2, 3, 4, two odd ones and then 89-the final one, with the exception of 128).

Any help tracking them down would be much appreciated!

Also, my background is in writing, and I edited a magazine for a year last year, so if anyone from the above magazines is reading, feel free to get in touch if you need contributions!

Re: Nintendo Forces Us To Think Differently, Says EA's Patrick Söderlund

@electrolite77 Yeah, but EA bringing out fully-fledged games would have helped the Wii and Wii U to no end, as casuals wouldn't need to buy the more expensive other formats to play FIFA, which is a system-seller to the majority of console buyers.

The third parties ARE to blame - a console won't do well if they don't bring their games to it!

I say this every year, but as a Nintendo-only player, it's been shocking how we've been dismissed by EA.

I used to love growing up with the N64 and Gamecube FIFAs, with FIFA 07 the last one that matched the other console's efforts.

FIFA 13 on Wii U was great, but anything in-between (ie, on Wii) was a disgrace.

Please EA, please, just give us the same as the other consoles: Manager Mode, all the teams and players, and Ultimate Team.

To have that on the go, you'd make millions.

Respect the Nintendo fanbase!

Re: Three New Nintendo 3DS Bundles Heading to Europe on 26th June

As a Nintendo collector, I've started going after every New 3DS (standard size) bundle since the Christmas eShop sale.

The Pokemon Alpha Sapphire one here wasn't even in the sale, and the Xenoblade one sold out quickly, so I missed it.

Can't find them anywhere now!

I was lucky enough to get the Monster Hunter one, though.

@ULTRA-64 Never ever had a problem with them.

Meanwhile, I ordered the Dragon Ball Z New 3DS today, which Ive had my eye on for a while.

Due to be delivered tomorrow!

I've really gotten into collecting Nintendo consoles and variants this year, but I havent got any of the five (apart from Dragon Ball now!)

Gonna be expensive but I'll get em! Just hope they don't sell out before I can...
