Be Excellent To Each Other

If it ain't got a sniper Luigi, I'm not interested.

Who needs Double Tap when you have Double Jump.

It's a bit of a hot take, but Gears of War: Tactics might be better than X-COM.

Don't at me, or whatever the kids say.

Yes it comes with that.

Might look at that... The Jedi games look ok as well.

Cruisin'blast in in nintendo's cybersale now... really lovely arcade racer by eugene jarvis himself....


wondering if i should double dip for pikmin.. have it on the wiiU... wbut never really played it that much..even thoguh i think i (should) love it

Yup, lots of good stuff in the Switch sale. Wish I could go for Dragon Quest XI, I thought the very generous demo to be rather excellent but unfortunately I have an almost rabid hatred of the smug, inescapable music so it's no go. I am wondering about Zelda: Age of Calamity. Anyone got that? Any good?

Was pondering some sort of Warriors game anyway, or a good racer too. Already got Mario Kart, natch, any suggestions? Think I'll try to limit myself to just the one purchase though this time, or a combo not more than £30ish.

Finally if anyone hasn't played it I can strongly recommend Valkyria Chronicles, which is just great and an absolute steal. Haven is also a lovely game and one that I fully enjoyed throughout its run time. It's almost like a little holiday, scooting about an alien planet. I really got wrapped up in the life of the couple living there. Bittersweet ending, mind.

Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove is £19.79 and is a must for anyone ever.

INSIDE, as if no one has every played that utterly amazing piece of brilliance, is a disgusting £1.79.

Also, Dusk is the only essential Switch game worth playing and it’s a shocking £15.

Get. Them. All.

Well as said, now playing cruis'n blast, that's a grewat arcade racer, enjoying hot shot racing too, which gives lots of notches to Virtua racing... I got horizon chase on the ps4, which with it's senna addition dlc really is nice.. (the developer is brazian and made a bit of a loveletter to ayrton senna), and virtua racing itself brings back lots o memories for me..

Recently bigged up on GamesMaster, too.

Feels a bit odd to be saying that.

Actual Hotwheels: Fun for young kids.

Hotwheels Unleashed on the Switch: Not fun for young kids, it's quite hard for them.

After first few quick plays, not recommended for adults either - it's not that much fun. Micromachines did small scale racing much better.

That is a shame, I fancied having a go at it..

Some good sales at the moment. Valkyria Chronicles on sale yet again for a few quid. Also the quite fun Red Mars: REMASTERED is a mere £1.79. The immensely enjoyable Phoenix Wright's are half price, Lego City Undercover £12.49 (great fun but a bit laggy at times) and the completely bloody fantastic Fire Emblem: Three Houses is having a rare 33% off sale at £33.29. Fire Emblem is genuinely one of the best games I've ever played, so deffo get that folks. Myself I've picked up Red Mars and Grid Autosport, which is a bafflingly good-looking racer.

EDIT:

Oh, forgot to add but the most excellent The Long Dark is on sale for a mere £9.17. It runs pretty well on the Switch with only load times being a bug-bear if you keep popping and out of houses a lot. Four of the five episodes are now out and there's hundreds of hours of chilly, wolf-fearing escapist fun within, so I can strongly, strongly recommend it.

what a direct!

mii sports!
Mario Kart dlc! (a reason to buy nso+)
Mario strikers

gundam... , xenoblade, splatoon 3, advance wars, Kirby. some Japanese rpgs..

It's got a bit better since I opened up some more tracks and also adjusted the difficulty level (I had it set as too easy, so I was able to blast ahead and stay clear) so now it feels more like actual racing. I still maintain it's not a game for young kids as the handling is hard and falling off the track is punishing... but it is getting a bit better.

It's also neat when you 'get' a car that the kids actually have in real life, like the cool shark-looking one.

The bit in MiiTopia when you can give them all cocaine,and then they batter the fuck out of anything they see raised my eyebrows.

Five years switch already... that was fast..

Just git switch sports. Bowling record already 211..

Switch Sports is great.

It certainly is, Any one interested in a switch sport online bezzie action next week?

For around 8 bucks, Hotshot Racing is a whole lot of fun. It's exciting!

Ooh, is it? How's local play? Can you handily play two play with just the two joy-cons? Might pick this up.

My current new addiction is Splatoon 2. I'm not as terrible as I expected. It's a pretty ace system, you can just try your darndest to paint everything and you'll often score more points and help more than those focused on playing it like a shooter.

2 joy cons work fine for everything but football (you need 2 per player) and the two sword mode of Canberra..
