You'll write very little of substance of patches due later this week, but you'll spend ages waiting for a press-release before reporting on current releases and MyNintendo discounts?
Again this site isn't watching the mynintendo site. New offers went live a couple of days ago, including discounts on the original GBC Shantae running on 3DS VC. Not a lot new, but new all the same.
All the kids already have this on their iPhones. I'd be much more interested in FFX and onwards that aren't already mobile. Sure they aren't always as loved, but X and X-2 were great.
@lumothesinner SimplyGames is also claiming that Pokemon Ultra is in their Black Friday offers, but it's £2 more expensive than they sold it to me a couple of weeks ago.
@ThomasBW84 Totally. While some here think I'm having dig at you on this article I did recognise the additional workload needed this week. Lots of sales and discounts is a good problem to have.
BTW MyNintendo have had new rewards out for about a week (not reported on this site), including gold rewards for things like Mighty Switch Force (3DS), which are also heavily discounted in this sale.
Took you long enough, although there are quite a lot of discounts this week. If you had to type that out manually then perhaps it was worth waiting for.
Anyone know if it comes with the DLC as per the 'Special Editions' previously released? Hearthfire was pointless, but I got very sidetracked by (sort of) building a pretty house on PC.
Looks too much like a Flash game from 10 years ago. Awful animation puts me right off. I'll bet this shows up as a £1.99 deal on iOS pretty soon too. Maybe even free with ads.
@1UP_MARIO CEX price by supply and demand, and sometimes that does mean they sell above RRP. That does also mean that they buy for £10 cash and £14.99. If I could play this game in a week I could get much of the money back, but that's not going to happen. £14 at other shops is still more than £11.50.
So Luigi's Mansion 2 is just over 30% off if you combine with the MyNintendo discount for 20 gold coins. £11.51. I have a backlog but that's a pretty good price. No?
Well, type advantages and disadvantages are nullified in Pokken, but I certainly agree having more monsters to fight with would be welcome. I'd be very surprised though, given the Wii U version didn't get any updates of that nature.
I don't think it's that great a week for Switch. Yes, there are a few titles coming out, but none of them are compelling. Mario's just around the corner though.
Another 9/10 review for an indie switch game that has a good selection of bugs and glitches on release, while games from larger studios get lower scores, or even deferred scores for the same fault.. At least it's the same score as for Rune Factory 4.
Still don't know if this is the same game with DLC or a new game set on top of the original. It's rather looking like DLC in double-dip form unfortunately. Here's hoping for a National Dex though (as per the book being released in December).
1st post about cricket games on Switch: This looks like it could be fun. I never played a Wii or Wii U game on cricket (I don't recall seeing any) but I agree the motion controls could work really well. I'd look into this is the price was reasonable.
Also note that GX battle boost has over 115 numbered cards but max 70 per booster box, with lots of reprints. But then you see that new Lillie and Eevee and you pre-order a box on Ami Ami. Meanwhile I'm going to try and collect everything by Yuka Morii if I can.

Looks like the code no longer works - EDIT: but the Prime £2 pre-order is now showing up instead

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th January (Europe)
Wow this list is really incomplete. Return to PopoloCrois is at £8.99 at the moment.

Because this site won't post about Nintendo without a press release to copy from: https://www.nintendo.co.uk/News/2018/January/Weekly-download-news-1329087.html for Europe news. Includes a tasty Return to PopoloCrois sale for £8.99

Re: You Can Now Sign Up For Nintendo Labo Workshops In The UK
Kids have to be at least 7 years-old. That sucks. My 5 year-old will have no problem with this, especially if I'm accompanying her.
Re: Nintendo Is Announcing "A New Way To Play" Later Today
Playing with the joycons separate, but without straps attached.
Re: ChromaGun Is Coming To Switch And It's A Portal To Colour-Changing Puzzle Action
I can't tell the difference in some colours, so this is a non-starter for me.
Re: Review: Woodle Tree Adventures (Switch eShop)
So bad they can barely give it away for free on Steam

You had me at 3/10 for WWE 2K18
Re: Euro My Nintendo Rewards Include Wii U And 3DS Discounts, But Nothing For Switch Owners
Yup very little for 3DS here in actual fact. Doesn't feel right spending money on the Wii U now

Re: Dragon Quest Builders Digs Into the Switch on 9th February
No. The sequel (long since released on other platforms) is coming so going to wait for that.
Re: Pikachu Gets A Villainous Makeover With These New Secret Team Pokémon Plushies
There are promotional trading cards in January in Japan too
Re: Final Fantasy And More Could One Day Arrive On Switch As Square Enix Considers Future Ports
All the kids already have this on their iPhones. I'd be much more interested in FFX and onwards that aren't already mobile. Sure they aren't always as loved, but X and X-2 were great.
Re: Gallery: Let's Try The New Super Mario Cereal
So the amiibo doesn't unlock "exclusive content" then. Actually much the same as scanning an Animal Crossing card.
Re: Pixel-Heavy Fantasy Adventure Hammerwatch Is Storming The Switch eShop Next Week
Yes it's totally fine as single player. The question is if this supports the add-on content and fan made levels.
Re: Bridge Constructor Portal Is Coming To Switch In Early 2018
Half Life 3 confirmed!

@Chandlero There's a MyNintendo discount for the New 3DS version

@ThomasBW84 If you copy and paste it, then edit that it might be quicker than typing it all out from scratch.

@NintenNinja16 Unlimited does. It was added to 2017 in August.
Re: Guide: The Simple Trick To Finding All Of Super Mario Odyssey's Power Moons
@rjejr There are paintings to other worlds that are remote locations with just 1 power moon.
Re: Video: Here's the Full 'Just Mario' Song in Just Dance 2018
If I get 2018 do I need to keep 2017 or can I bet most of the 2017 songs will be available via Just Dance Unlimited?
Re: Nintendo's European eShop Halloween Sale is Now Live
@1UP_MARIO CEX price by supply and demand, and sometimes that does mean they sell above RRP. That does also mean that they buy for £10 cash and £14.99. If I could play this game in a week I could get much of the money back, but that's not going to happen.
£14 at other shops is still more than £11.50.
Re: Nintendo's European eShop Halloween Sale is Now Live
@1UP_MARIO CEX price is £22 (for some reason)

Re: Pokkén Tournament DX Will Allow Online Team Battles In New Update

Re: Nintendo Download: 12th October (Europe)
I don't think it's that great a week for Switch. Yes, there are a few titles coming out, but none of them are compelling. Mario's just around the corner though.
Re: The Big NBA 2K18 Patch For Switch Is Finally Here
The debacle was NintendoLife giving a major software publisher with a huge marketing budget a free pass on releasing a broken game at a premium price.
Re: Review: Stardew Valley (Switch eShop)

Re: Big Ant Studios Would Love To Bring Ashes Cricket To Switch
@ANeonChicken Ask an industry analyst or do market research. I can only speak for myself. I would buy it.
Re: Big Ant Studios Would Love To Bring Ashes Cricket To Switch
@ANeonChicken Japan has a cricket team. It's also similar in play and atmosphere to baseball. My Japanese wife loves cricket.
