@dartmonkey thanks!!

Now.... a friend let his youngest try A/C first, not knowing the ‘one island’ rule.... now that child’s character is the resident representative and as he’s got quickly bored (too young) he’s not playing, therefore holding others back - before I get really grumpy about the fact that only ‘player 1’ gets the full joy of the game (naming island / opening challenges) surely they haven’t been daft enough to lock this down aswell?????

Re: Poll: Nintendo Switch Lite Is Out Today, Are You Getting One?

wariosmith

I bought the Lite in a deal at Curry's in the UK, £199.99 including Link's Awakening... and then sold the Lite in my office for £190

I was tempted to keep the Lite for the train.... but just couldn't justify it, and I love being able to take the joy cons off. Still £10 for Zelda - get in!

Re: Primary School Teacher Uses Nintendo Labo As A Creative Classroom Tool

wariosmith

as a school governor... money is tight, so i don't advocate schools buying Labo to use, but if it was made available i'd love it to come to my kids school. Anything that stimulates kids brains and gets them interested in "why/how" is great in my book.
As for not using Branded equipment... sadly long beyond that. Apple ipads anyone??

Re: Review: PAYDAY 2 (Switch)

wariosmith

I don't see much detail in the review about handheld / on the go co-op... i'm guessing i can't play this on a bus pause to go underground and then restart when i come up above ground?
For me the whole beauty of the switch is portableplay / pause'n'restart... is this game only good for long period play in a fixed location with mates on a fast broadband??
Ie... should i just buy on a different system?

Re: Reggie on Mario, Zelda, and Splatoon Sales Performance on the Switch

wariosmith

@penfold007 yes... i've spent more on games for the Switch in 10months than i'd spent in the lifetime of any other console... I have had to ebay a few i'd completed to keep up!

For me, as a life long Ninty man... the most magic has been the 'non Nintendo' titles coming over. I am LOVING Doom... to have this full experience on portable...
Skyrim - my first experience of it... wow

Zelda, Mario, Rabbids, MK8, Fifa.... plus loads of eShop purchases

I also love the way i can easily set the parental controls so my kids can only access games suitable for their ages - perfect

gutted Amazon didn't have enough stock to delivery mine today... even though i pre-ordered in September! saying Monday... fingers crossed, very excited

@geox30 can't recommend Noire... can offer a 'hardly used' copy for sale!
sadly Noire is a beautiful, but joyless version of GTA

Re: L.A. Noire

wariosmith

@Bod2019 yeah - played Doom for 5 mins on a mates switch yesterday. going to sell Noire (before the reviews come out...) and buy Doom instead

Re: L.A. Noire

wariosmith

@Bod2019 while you wait for a 'real' review... i've played the first 20% or so... and been totally underwhelmed.
Looks lovely - character models great / world view / map... but its just a dull game.
Think GTA but remove the fun... it takes itself far too seriously. The driving is dull, the 'side quests' are so spread out on the map you want to give up before you get there.
The questioning is multiple choice and i seem to be relying on guess work rather than logic to go good / bad cop...

The main character (thus far admittedly) is so straight down the line you just want to drive him to a bar and get him drunk!

Looks - 9/10
Story - 6/10
Fun - 1/10

wish i'd bought Doom instead...

Re: L.A. Noire

wariosmith

@alasdair91 have you purchased from Base before? never come across them.... trustworthy?

Re: FIFA 18 on Nintendo Switch Accounts for a Tiny Percentage of UK Launch Sales

wariosmith

just picked up a copy from Argos as they had it in stock - whereas Amazon was not getting stock back till 9th Oct.

had a great fun game in the office with a colleague - i was really worried about playing on the small screen.... was fine, and with joy-cons. We put the sliders on the joy-cons at half time and that improved access to the shoulder buttons.

first FIFA purchase in my life... was a PES/ISS man on Gamecube

Re: Review: Golf Story (Switch eShop)

wariosmith

@riChchestM if you press + and then go to quit.... then you can choose 'save and quit' - avoids replaying filler

Really enjoying for the most part, mixing between that and Thimbleweed - both awesome

Re: PayPal Offering £5 Off When You Spend £20 On The Nintendo eShop

wariosmith

@gordjscott I just added funds.... via linked paypal.... and its taken full £20 out of my account
there was nothing i wanted to buy... so i added funds
my balance isn't showing as £25 now...
confusion reigns

EDIT - although PayPal said I'd paid £20 to Nintendo when I checked deeper into my PayPal account I'd only been charged £15, whoop whoop!!

Re: Disgaea 5 Complete Passes 100,000 Sales on Nintendo Switch

wariosmith

@Wichtel interesting .... i restarted my first game save as i opened all the bonus content worlds and just got totally lost.
maybe i'll reopen it and try your streamlined approach.

its things like 'innocents' that confuse me.... and squads... i am but a simple lad. Really liking I am Setsuna - thats got options, but limited enough!
