@MeowMeowKins Might not be worth it to you, but I definitely see the value, but I've been collecting for a couple of years now. Guess everyone's different...
You don't know until you've seen it in person to be honest.
They also massively increase in value over time.
@TG16_IS_BAE they did it with the DS? Why not the Switch? The company is very different today than it has been before the Switch. Of course this is all speculation and nobody knows anything until it happens. One can dream though.
@TG16_IS_BAE Recession or not, the Switch is selling insanely well. The market is still moving on. Xbox and PS5 about to launch. Announce the Switch Pro model to steal some thunder. Couple it with a massive game and you're into a winner.
I remember asking my mum for Diddy Kong Racing and seeming disappointed when she bought this instead. (Not ungrateful, I was just a 5/6 year old that really wanted Diddy Kong Racing after renting it at Blockbuster!)
I started playing it and oh boy was I hooked.
Massively overpriced! I only go in there now and then to get ideas for new games to play and see what's around.
I always buy elsewhere because why should I pay £5 - £15 more than Smyths or Amazon for example?
I'll always try to get a game in an actual store rather than online cause I wanna play it on the day, and there's a special feeling you get when you pick a game up in the shop that you just don't get when buying online!
The first game was fantastic. I get the bad feedback it has received but you have to set the Banjo Nostalgia aside for a moment and appreciate the game for what it was. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
When this was first announced, I was disappointed that it wasnt a 3D platformer, but after hearing that it's not a sequel and is just an extra game we're getting, I'm happy.
Can't wait for a true sequel though! It sounds like they're cooking something up!
Wouldn't it be amazing if it turned out that they've been working with Rare on Banjo remake/Banjo 3/Banjo in Smash, and that they wanted to release this so that they at least had some kind of YookaLaylee game out this year?
@HobbitGamer that would be soo good The seasons change in the background and effect the stage itself!
Spring could rain so much it creates a river that gushes through Summer could create hotspots on the stage that cause heat damage, or bring out a load of bees that attack Autumn could have those annoying birds around the stage And Winter would be all slippery.
All while that music is looping over and over again. Yes please.

A "Let's Go" Gold/Silver/Crystal remake would be rad.
Re: After Months Of 'Switch Pro' Rumours, Nintendo Officially Unveils The Nintendo Switch OLED Model
Nice refined design and loving the white but certainly not enough to make me go and buy it. My day 1 switch is still serving me perfectly.

Re: Talking Point: What We're Hoping To See In Today's Nintendo Direct
Kingdom Hearts collection on Switch. Seems more likely now that it's just been announced for PC....
...And then Sora announced alongside it as the next Smash champion

Re: Nintendo UK Store Hosts First 4 Figures' Gorgeous Legend Of Zelda Statues
@HighFlyingBird It's huge, and made of resin.
Re: Nintendo Reveals Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, A Game Set 100 Years Before Breath Of The Wild
First one was amazing!!
I really hope they add online play though!
Super excited regardless!
Re: Rumour: New Switch Model Launching Early 2021 Alongside A Strong Game Lineup, According To Reports
Why do people keep saying 4k support is impossible because the current switch can't handle 900p?
It would be a new chipset you idiots.
Likelihood is that it'll be 1080p handheld, 4k docked.
Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
@GrandScribe I have the Bowser too! So I'll display that flag next to him and the Mario flag next to Mario! Gonna be sweet!

Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
@LEGEND_MARIOID No clues here! It was up for pre-order 2 years ago. Takes time for them to produce and release.
Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
@MeowMeowKins Resin. Great quality... MASSIVE?
Definitely worth the price.
Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
@GrandScribe There are 2 flags, one for Mario and one for Yoshi. If you've played "New Super Mario Bros U", you'd know it fits just fine...
Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
@Nintendo_Thumb No scam...
They design it and then it has to be approved by Nintendo.
I have loads of products from F4F. They're great!!
Re: Video: First 4 Figures Unboxes Its Huge (And Very Expensive) Mario And Yoshi Statue
Waiting for mine to be delivered! Definitive Edition, baby!

Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Surpass 61 Million, Equalling The Mighty NES
@TG16_IS_BAE dude You're ignoring my point. Stop with the cocky attitude... 😂
Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Surpass 61 Million, Equalling The Mighty NES
@TG16_IS_BAE Just because it happened like that in the past, doesn't mean it will again. 😂
The Switch Lite came out of nowhere. That may happen again.
Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Surpass 61 Million, Equalling The Mighty NES

The company is very different today than it has been before the Switch.

Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Surpass 61 Million, Equalling The Mighty NES
Now would be a perfect time to announce a more powerful model for a Christmas 2020 release.
Pair the Mario collection with it and they'd have a killer finish to an otherwise slow year.

@sanderev yes I'm aware, but there's no reason why a switch Pro couldn't have that
Re: Switch Pro Rumours Resurface As New Report Claims Mid-2020 Release For New System
I'd like to see this.
I don't know why they don't add a dedicated GPU into the dock so that it can handle 4K resolutions

Re: Ubisoft Will Not Release Any Additional Starlink Toys For Future Updates
I thought it was fun for a couple of hours but then I felt like it got a bit repetitive on each planet... There wasn't really much content....
The most fun part about this game I feel, was the Starfox content as well as being able to fly and battle through space...
I managed to get mine for £10 though so it's money well spent for that price!
Re: Reminder: Final Fantasy VII Finally Launches On A Nintendo System Today
This makes me so happy.
Final Fantasy 9 was a dream to revisit on the Switch and I'm so glad I can do the same with this masterpiece now.
