'Another Lost Phone: Laura's Story (Plug In Digital, €5.99 / £5.39) - Another Lost Phone is a game about exploring the social life of a young woman whose phone you have just found.'
That has to be the most CREEPIEST sounding game I've ever heard of.
But as usual. I'll wait until the system is dead and moved onto the next Nintendo system, in about 6 or so years. Nintendo better get a new updated Switch out fast.
Hmm, big update (that in fairness, isn't needed to play), full fat price, months and months later after the release on all other systems and first game not included like on other systems? It's a pass from me.
@Dom oh absolutely I am. Which I did when I saw that it was at no.1 on the Japanese charts. It's in bold in the article but not linked to anything, like other games in all other articles on your site.
Might be an idea to link it to the 'game page' since it's not released outside japan and people can quickly find out what it is, on your site, as apposed to going to a different site to find out what it is and why it's at no.1.
Of course I don't expect you, or any site for that matter to put full details about each game in the charts 🙄, but when it's a No1 best selling game in Japan, a little mention of what it is, can be helpful for your readers.
From pushsquare which posted all the details yesterday. What's going on with NL lately. VERY slow to post news, like insanely slow. No staff or something?
Switch – 36,308 (40,016)
PlayStation 4 – 9,491 (9,530)
New 2DS LL – 4,564 (5,006)
New 3DS LL – 3,366 (3,865)
PlayStation Vita – 2,921 (2,929)
PlayStation 4 Pro – 1,473 (4,970)
2DS – 616 (551)
Xbox One – 55 (72)
Xbox One X – 17 (47)
Edit: also, what's Snack world? A little blurb on what the game is, in the article might help.
Ya know what, I'm actually sick of these delays. Same old story really.
I'll stick with PS4 and PC for 3rd party from here on out, much like I did with the WiiU and Wii.
Hardly take the Switch out of the dock anyway so might as well get the better version on its proper release at a lesser price on PS4.
I can only support Nintendo with delayed games for so long. Wasting my money. Southpark will be bought this month for another system, but at a much cheaper price than it is on Switch.
Yeah, I hear ya, I sense that PS4 could be like PS2 for Sony again, but I don't think they'd be that stupid to repeat PS3 launch again. I'd say they'll do the same as PS4, basic but strong ps5 for a year or two, then a slim or pro after. Keeping it full of Sony exclusives which I like myself.
Nintendo definitely had a touch of PS2 power with the Wii, and since we all knew what happened with ps3, with Sony, it was clear as day that Wii had gone to their heads with WiiU. Sure it was a great idea, but man was it a few years short in the oven. I wonder if they held off for a couple of years and released the Switch in 2015 would it be the success it is atm, or would the 3ds be in the way? Maybe Nintendo had to learn a lesson (again (N64)), I loved the GameCube, so underrated at the time, not so much now though, which is great, GameCube VC please.
I think maybe Xbox will get a massive jump back into the market with their next gen system, the X is pretty much next gen but, a new system.
Only thing that stops me turning on my one s now is that [removed] OS, I hate it so much, can't find anything. They need to streamline it like switch and PS4. I know it's meant to be an all-in-one type system, but to me it's just a mess, and takes way to long to turn a game on, or even buy an OG Xbox or 360 game, so I don't go near it.
I'm rambling now, sorry. But yes you make very valid and clear points.
@TheLobster I get ya. It can be incredibly slow, it's more like watching a documentary on something terrible that happened, but you're trying to find out what happened, but again at a slow pace. It's not for everyone.
@TheLobster 'The game where you walk at half a mile per hour even after you find the run button'
Lol, yup, the very same game. I loved it. Reminded me of my holidays as a kid in the 80s. And that unnerving music, like Boards of Canada playing in the background. It was a beautiful break from platformers and shooters tbh.
Playing Farcry5 on the PS4 ATM. It's very good. But why isn't Farcry3 coming to the Switch? Pretty sure it would run just fine seeing as it runs on ps360 with no problems.
Anyone heard anything about it coming to the switch?
@Kirgo ah yeah I'm aware of that. Just venting. I hear in the 5.0 update, there was an update to, I guess, 'future proof' any internal upgrades that might happen in the future hardware that the average customer wouldn't need to know about.
@roadrunner343 I do the same with modded gameboys myself. Not that expensive thought. Little work goes into putting the front lights on and new housing.
I'd like to see the nomad, you have a link? Been thinking of modding sega stuff lately myself.
Ordered my copy at 6pm yesterday when nintendoeverything posted about it.
Works out to about €39 including post to Ireland.
Edit: it's that price as I used parcel motel to deliver to a UK address and I'll pick it up a day later in Dublin. So, yeah, still expensive but saved €3, not the best, but not the worst 😁
From what I can see myself, these mass shooters in the US are by people who have a few(lots) screw's loose, are 'destined' to do something like this, and total access to guns in their homes, via a family member or something which does NOT help the situation. Or somehow buy them themselves. With such a massive population, these things are bound to happen.
It's not the same in Europe, as we have VERY strict gun laws all over the place, but it does happen here too, but not as often.

Re: Video: Meet Adol Christin, The Hero Of Ys VIII: Lacrimosa Of Dana
Played a little bit of this on the Vita, I'm presuming that's the version that will be ported to the switch, not the PS4 version?

Edit. Double post.
Re: Hackers Have Found A Way To Exploit The Switch, And It's Apparently 'Unpatchable'

I'll pick it up on sale on Steam at some point.
Re: Gallery: Japan Goes Absolutely Potty About Nintendo Labo
@RainbowGazelle yeah, that's just bad titling (that even a work? Lol). Misleading.
Was expecting to see thousands of people in stores trying to buy Labo.
It's just displays. We'll find out on Wednesday how it went at least.
Re: The Snack World Scoffs Its Way To Number One In The Japanese Charts
@Nincompoop wouldn't it be great if Sony relaunched the psvita with a few extra buttons, bit of extra power maybe and a dock. I'd buy it!
Seems like a no brainer.
They could use it as a stop gab between PS4 and ps5 for a couple years.

Wonder how much it'll be.
Looks like a table top cab.
Hmm, stick with emulation or drop the cash, hmm, hmm, hmm.
Probably 😋
Re: Dark Souls: Remastered Succumbs To Delay On Switch, Along With Solaire amiibo
@electrolite77 'Well done. Most people have another system for third-party games'
Now, if only Nintendo could figure that out.
Re: Dark Souls: Remastered Succumbs To Delay On Switch, Along With Solaire amiibo
@1UP_MARIO double lol! Labo shakes head. Feels like that was announced a year ago and it's been delayed.

Re: Dark Souls: Remastered Succumbs To Delay On Switch, Along With Solaire amiibo
I might just pick up the PS3 GotY version instead.
Re: Asdivine Hearts
Why is it €2 more expensive on switch than WiiU?
Re: Talking Point: Does Sega's AGES Announcement Mean The Virtual Console Is Dead?
Yeah. I think collections, physical on carts, would be MUCH better than a VC.
Re: Alex Kidd And Gain Ground Join Sega's AGES Line-Up On Switch, Saturn And Dreamcast Games Coming
@Jack_Goetz cool!!! Thanks
Re: Alex Kidd And Gain Ground Join Sega's AGES Line-Up On Switch, Saturn And Dreamcast Games Coming
Why are people saying Saturn and Dreamcast games are coming to the Switch? Did Sega say this in a tweet or something?
Re: Alex Kidd And Gain Ground Join Sega's AGES Line-Up On Switch
Are these going to be €6.99 each?
Wouldn't pay more than €2 for master system and megadrive games.
Re: Sega Reveals Shenmue 1 & 2 Remaster, But It's Skipping Switch
Ugh, if it is coming to Switch they should announce it at the same time! They both fit of a cart, so no need for downloads.
But, it's probably not going to come to the Switch. Thank god I have a PS4 for all 3 games
Re: Sega Teases "Huge Announcement" To Be Revealed Tomorrow
Feels like this time last year all over again. Nothing happened that was HUGE then either. Just megadrive games on Android.

Did this happen for the PS4 during the WiiU era? Like, a lot?
Ah well. I'm interested in this title, physical or digital, haven't decided yet, but definitely getting it on Switch.
Re: Hacker Praises Nintendo's Switch Security Efforts, But Says Console Is "Completely Compromised"
I might pick up a new switch to keep in the press for a few years until it's completely hacked.
I'll buy my games brand new for the next few years as usual.

Re: Pack Your Hiking Gear Because Firewatch Is Coming to Nintendo Switch
@Grumpy-Cam have you played everybody's gone to the rapture yet?? Amazing game. And a walking sim, highly recommended
Re: Pack Your Hiking Gear Because Firewatch Is Coming to Nintendo Switch
@Aven could always port Farcry 1, 2 and 3 to the switch. I'd buy them again to play on the go.
Re: Pack Your Hiking Gear Because Firewatch Is Coming to Nintendo Switch
Cool.
Playing Farcry5 on the PS4 ATM. It's very good.
But why isn't Farcry3 coming to the Switch? Pretty sure it would run just fine seeing as it runs on ps360 with no problems.

Re: Nintendo Switch Version 5.0.1 Is Now Available For Download

Maybe add stuff to the os Nintendo. Folders would be an amazing (and basic) start. And yes I'm aware Sony took a while with folders too.
