It's on at the same time as Worlds, so they're trying to split the spectator and general experience. And yes, it's time for a Worlds to not be in the US again. London and Yokohama were great.
I have a bunch of this stuff from Japan. I like the model house stuff, especially the piplup in the icey bath tub. The actual range not yet announced for the West is a lot more borad than the above.
I would have been all over this, but the Ganondorf pose is mid. If it had been the powered up version with the bright red mane then I would have tried very hard to get it.
Been refreshing Pokemon Center Online all day. Suddenly this range is live. Suddenly every single item is sold out. FFS. I just wanted one little thing.
@Daniel36 The board game is excellent, although Jaws of the Lion is a great intro to the series. There's a 2nd edition int he works, but that's not yet reflected in the digital version. They've also kickstarted a TTRPG using the combat system, which is really excellent.
@MontyCircus You can play the boardgame solo. Main difference is you run two characters and up the difficulty (level) of the enemies, because you have full control of the party. In multiplayer, you have to contend with miscommunications and sometimes conflicting mini-goals, but otherwise it's the same experience.
@Cashews It's not really that early. For the West, it would be the 4th ScarVi TCG expansion. In Japan that number is higher (6th or 7th). It's typical to do a special set once a year.
Ignoring the MAGA vibe to some of these comments, I think the critics were right. It's a a terrible and also successful film. I hated it. My daughter hated it. The crowd cheered more at the Mario Odyssey advert before the film started. It will make lots of money.
FWIW those 5% off eshop credits links really work. Used it 3 times. I think I have all that I need now. Just playing the start of some games to grab free, cheap or important DLC.
Time to make sure you have a big enough micro SD card before the weekend. If not, then purchase games on the website. Otherwise the 3DS won’t let you buy if there’s no space to install.

Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A's Mega Dimension DLC Scores December Release Date
Diance looks like being available now via "In Game News" to unlock a side story. Includes her mega stone.
Re: The Force Isn't Strong With Star Wars Outlaws On Switch 2, Initial Impressions Suggest
Cyberpunk 2077 looking and playing like it does on Switch 2 proves that the console itself isn't the issue. It'll be lazy ports.
Re: Fitness Boxing 2 To Be Removed From The eShop This November
If this was a digital key card which was sold later, could new owners of the card download the game on their account?
Re: Pokémon Legends Z-A's Latest Mega Evolution Looks Particularly Snazzy
Is that a feather you got there Mega Hawlucha, or are you just happy to see me?

Re: Fifteen Years In The Making, Caves Of Qud Is Finally Coming To Nintendo Switch Later This Year
@kmtrain83 I play this on Steamdeck handheld and every element of the UI can be resized.
It's an amazing game. You have to see it in motion as it's a lot less static than the screenshots convey.
Re: Poll: So, Have You Tried Out Pokémon Friends On Switch Or Mobile Yet?
I have Apple Arcade included with my One sub. I'm drowning in this kind of crap.
Re: Mini Review: Belkin Charging Case For Switch 2 - A Great Idea, With Middling Execution
I have the non-battery version and it is excellent. A perfect fit.

Re: Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster Controversially Cuts War Of The Lions Content
Isn't WotL already on iOS. I've had it on my iPad for years.
I wonder if it still runs though.
EDIT: Yes it still runs just fine on my iPad.
Re: Review: Savage Raven EDC Switch 2 Carry Case - A Sleek Alternative To Nintendo's Official Offering
Looks decent. I bought the Belkin one and suggest a review of that. It's the first time Belkin have done kit for Nintendo.
Re: Review: Nintendo Switch 2 Carry Case - The Official Option Is A Solid One
I now have the Belkin one (without battery) and it's very good. Perfect fit for a naked Switch 2, hard enough on the outside and soft on the inside.

Re: Best Nintendo Switch 2 Cases To Carry And Protect Your Console
@justibles It's in the title: "Best Nintendo Switch 2 Cases To Carry And Protect Your Console". Key word being "best".
Re: Best Nintendo Switch 2 Cases To Carry And Protect Your Console
Belkin has a new one just released that looks quite nice
Re: Best Nintendo Switch 2 Cases To Carry And Protect Your Console
The Procase also has terrible reviews, and it seems that it is soft not a hard case.
Re: The Pokémon Company's 'monpoké' Kids And Babies Brand Is Going Global

Re: The Next 7 Star Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Tera Raid Is Incoming
I will be bringing my Blissey to help other teams complete the job. A Ceruledge that removes all stat changes might be handy too.
Re: Best Food In Nintendo Switch Games
This guide is missing Suika
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Ganondorf Statue Unveiled In Japan
I still need a Ganondorf with the flowing red mane, and not a copy of the mid amibo.
Re: Reminder: The New Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom amiibo Are Now Available
I would have been all over this, but the Ganondorf pose is mid. If it had been the powered up version with the bright red mane then I would have tried very hard to get it.
Re: Watermelon Game (Suika Game) Gets A Surprise Local Release On Switch eShop
@Greatluigi It has score and play. Mash A and you will be playing.
Re: Pokémon X Van Gogh Museum Merch Is Already Seeing Expensive Online Resales
Been refreshing Pokemon Center Online all day. Suddenly this range is live. Suddenly every single item is sold out. FFS. I just wanted one little thing.
Re: Review: Gloomhaven - A Cumbersome But Deep (And Hard-As-Nails) TTRPG Adaptation
@Daniel36 The board game is excellent, although Jaws of the Lion is a great intro to the series. There's a 2nd edition int he works, but that's not yet reflected in the digital version. They've also kickstarted a TTRPG using the combat system, which is really excellent.
Re: Barbie Returns In 'Dreamhouse Adventures', Launching Next Month
Does it have horses? Has it never seen the Godfather?
Re: Reminder: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Xenoblade Chronicles amiibo Are Out Today
Got mine. Still in box, because I already completed XBC 2 and 3. They look cool though.
Re: Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival Drums Up DLC With Godzilla And Evangelion
How does this DLC align with the Taiko Music Pass?
Re: Tactical RPG Gloomhaven Makes The Leap From Board Game To Switch This September
@MontyCircus You can play the boardgame solo. Main difference is you run two characters and up the difficulty (level) of the enemies, because you have full control of the party. In multiplayer, you have to contend with miscommunications and sometimes conflicting mini-goals, but otherwise it's the same experience.
Re: The Next Scarlet & Violet TCG Expansion Is A Throwback To The Original 151 Pokémon
@Cashews It's not really that early. For the West, it would be the 4th ScarVi TCG expansion. In Japan that number is higher (6th or 7th). It's typical to do a special set once a year.
Re: Nintendo's eShop Summer Sale Is Now Live, With Discounts On Over 1,500 Games (Europe)
Zelda TotK has taken away any drive to buy new games for a while.
Re: Review: Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Bold, Bleak, And Bewildering Boomer Ballistics
Can someone explain these screenshots? Why does it look like it would run on a 486?
Re: You Can Now Watch Critical Role's Full Zelda: TOTK-Themed One-Shot Special On YouTube
@Darknilious I believe this was a homebrew of PbtA (Powered by the Apocalpse) if that helps you.
Re: Soapbox: How Zelda's Bad Economy Made Weapon Degradation Great Again
Everyone knows, the true currency of Hyrule is arrows.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Updating Your Copy Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?
Only reason I haven't updated is because I haven't closed the game.
Re: Zelda: TOTK Playtimes Start To Appear, And Some People Haven't Been Getting A Lot Of Sleep
@DiamondJim That's fair. You will enjoy it and then Tears more that way.
Re: Current Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Tera Raid Battle Events Suspended Due To Reward Bug
More time for Zelda this weekend. Oh noes.

Twitter, for shame. Not a good brand these days.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Version 2.0.0 Is Now Available, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Mathew's voice action really grates. Sounds like Adam Buxton mocking Sarf Landaan accents, aight? No, it's Ali G.
Re: Miyamoto Thinks Mario Movie's Critical Reception Contributed To The "Buzz"
Ignoring the MAGA vibe to some of these comments, I think the critics were right. It's a a terrible and also successful film. I hated it. My daughter hated it. The crowd cheered more at the Mario Odyssey advert before the film started. It will make lots of money.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Version 2.0.0 Is Now Available, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Re: Surprise! Xenoblade Chronicles 3 "Final DLC" Launches On Switch Next Week
I didn't get this wave today (with minutes to go before it's the 26th)
Re: Community: 22 Switch Games We Missed, As Recommended By You
As soon as I saw a visual novel on this list, I knew I couldn't take any of the other recommendations seriously.
Re: Poll: What Did You Make Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Final Trailer?
Option 6: Didn't watch it to avoid spoilers. It's only a month til I can play my Collectors' Edition.
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Gets Its Very Own Monopoly Set
Ironically, I think Hasbro own this, so you'd think they'd do a Monopoly of Honour Among Thieves instead. But I'm glad they didn't.
Re: Reservations For Pokémon Center Pop-Up In London Now Available
Grabbed, but by golly I hope it works this time.
Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Version 1.2.0 Bug Supposedly Corrupting Save Files
@Rykdrew Minecraft isn't bug free you say? I'd check the history of Minecraft bugs on that front.
Re: Next Limited-Time Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Tera Raid Battle Event Revealed
@Bobb So much for Grimsnarl then.
YOLO with Ron Handsy and their life orb and belly drum, electric terrain, thunder punch as usual
Re: Next Limited-Time Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Tera Raid Battle Event Revealed
I might just parachute a support Grimsnarl into online raids and hope for the best.
