There's 4 profiles in the switch. I have a Nintendo Online sub Do I need a Nintendo Online sub for the profile BigOne uses if she wants to go to the Dreamworld thing in Animal Crossing? |

It seems to take an everybody's golf turn here (the running mode) Zelda port. .(don't really need it) Like the triangle project look.. will do the demo soonish.. Got apex/ fall guys on ps4... but good for the platform i guess @mmimi, did you like miitopia? and wonder about splatoon 3.. splatoon 2 was basically splatoon 1, but on the switch (and a beefed up single player), so wonder where they will go.. never heard of the new fighters in smash |

SmallOne threw up over the switch today. Now the base light is flashing green. Coupled with the joycon drift, I'm not that impressed with it at all. |

Super Bomberman R is also reduced at the moment (can't seem to find it on the Nintendo site, but it was around £5) so a couple of us were playing it in multiplayer yesterday. It's not bad, but the CPU AI is a little too good. Or we were just terrible at it. |

Prime was probably my favourite GameCube experience (and also my first metroid). Currently trying to get through Super Metroid with Fop the Youngest and it's proving very taxing. It's stressing us both out. Conversely I've tried to get into SOTN about five times and bounce off it every time. I either get lost or stuck on a boss or both. |

Glad you got the OLED, although now of course I am as jealous as hell. Suggestions? Animal Crossing - Join us! Join us! / Sinister chanting. Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Kind of like a fantasy X-Com with RPG elements. Probably my favourite game on the Switch. It's like Harry Potter meets an epic fantasy-medieval war tale. House Blue Lion all the way! Hades - Yeah, it is great. Nuff said. Islanders - Soothing and relaxing puzzler. Except when you're playing it at the Cottage and are interupted every two minutes by people walking past and asking you what it is. Like, six times in a row. Haven - Just completed this. Beautiful bitter sweet sci-fi French game with a visual style reminiscent of Moebius and a great ambient Daft-Punkish soundtrack. You play two lovers who have fled to a distant planet from their mildly oppressive society that would keep them apart. Explore the planet, survive, uncover mysteries. The voice acting, story and script are fantastic - I was really wrapped up in it like a novel, though some may find some of the gameplay mechanics a tad repetitive I really enjoyed the flow of it. Spiritfarer - It makeh me cry! Rogue Trooper - Cheap and cheerful old school shooter. Not great but surprisingly fun and a must for 2000AD fans. Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Obviously. Enjoy! |

X-Com2 is gud. It is missing the edgy high-concept dystopian sci-fi of the equally excellent Mario vs Rabbids, however. |
