Honestly hated Frontiers when I played it. Hated the world, the way it played, the music. It just seemed like a game that started development as something else entirely and then had Sonic slapped on it. I didn't play too much of it. Maybe 5/6 hours, but I had enough.
Looks really cool and I think the price is okay. But I don't like paying for pre-orders until dispatch, and that's not possible with this and for something that's not releasing til June? Hmmm, nah.
Is this the first time it's been announced for Switch 2?? I'm struggling to remember. When it was first announced, I liked the concept, but didn't think much of the execution at the time. But they've come a long way since then and it's looking really good. If this supports mouse mode, I'll 100% get it.
The second vid it looks like he's at a desk, using a pro controller, when mouse mode would be it's most optimal, especially when compared to the first video.... where he's using mouse mode... and bending his back.... in a--- why didn't they swap these around?!
Doesn't seem that impressive based on these pics. Most of the stuff you could get online, the small versions of the store's statues are cool. But would it have killed them to do "London" t-shirts? Why buy one for Osaka or Tokyo if you haven't been?
Why is there still no word on when the physical Yooka-Laylee comes out? They haven't even said it's not coming on 7th October, it's just that every retailer doesn't have it as the release date.
@JohnnyC I'm hoping they'll give Middle-Earth the Skywalker Saga treatment eventually. I mean there's already seven movies, another in 2027 and a ninth some point soon after that. I would expect it to be the next project after Batman.
I'm importing my Pac-Man copy, which should arrive on my birthday on Saturday. Zero surprise FC is no.1, though I wonder what % Switch 2 is. I'm gonna get it eventually. I did think Crossworlds was gonna be 2nd. Maybe the strong word of mouth will put it higher next week.
Anyways, I've got a week of gaming ahead with a week off work. I've treated myself to a 4K Oled Monitor that arrives tomorrow I can't wait.
HD Rumble 2.0 has been absolutely incredible in the new joy-cons and I imagine it's a similar improved experience in the Pro Controller, so that and waking from sleep would be enough for me to pay the difference in price. But this isn't too bad an alternative. Certainly looks quite nice.
@anoyonmus My wording was weird, what I meant is that, physically I'm annoyed it's a bundle. I knew it was available separately digitally. I want to get Galaxy 2 physically, but I don't want to get Galaxy 1 again. Unless it was a Switch 2 version, then I wouldn't have minded.
@sixrings Mario Party didn't get any boost, so it shouldn't be assumed. I have no interest in the Bellabel Park stuff as it's multiplayer focused, so yeah I want to know what the Switch 2 edition is
Depending on the price, I'll get Galaxy 2. But I'm annoyed it's a bundle and only for Switch 1. Mouse mode for collecting the star bits would've been great.
This game's HD rumble is also incredible, love the feel of riding the speeder or as spaceships go by during cutscenes. Very well done. I just with there was mouse mode. So frustrating that there isnt

Re: Review: Two Point Museum (Switch 2) - Probably The Best Game In The Series, But No Mouse Mode?
No mouse mode is an absolute deal breaker for me and their statements about it sound completely lazy.
Re: Kirby Air Riders Direct #2: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate it?
A much better direct than the last. The checlist and customisation/unlockables looks like a great reason to consistently play. I might get it now.

Re: UK Charts: FC 26 Scores An Early Winner And Keeps Sonic Racing From The Podium
@Wewewi Well I did, so I've imported it and oddly spent less money doing that then if I purchased it digitally. Just had to wait a week longer.
Re: UK Charts: FC 26 Scores An Early Winner And Keeps Sonic Racing From The Podium
@Wewewi Because it doesn't exist in the UK. It's digital only.
Re: Rumour: A Bunch Of LEGO Games Might Get The 'Switch 2 Edition' Treatment Soon
I'd rather see some of the games that aren't on Switch yet. Lord of the Rings, Batman 1-3, Indiana Jones etc.

Re: A New Pokémon Pop-Up Store Is Coming To London Next Year
I think a Nintendo Store on the corner of Oxford Street where the Microsoft Store was would be perfect. Could even have part of it as a Pokemon Centre
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Checking Out Switch Online's Virtual Boy Service?
