Zelda is £48 at Amazon right now. Why would you pay £60 for it? |

Zero Gunner 2 is out on the Switch today for £6.99. For those that don't know, it's an old arcade shoot em up that only ever saw a port on the Dreamcast in Japan. You control 1 of 3 helicopters and can fire in a full 360 degree motion. It's great. |

It's a fantastic game, but I saw reports of this port being pretty buggy. |

Splatoon 2 is just more Splatoon but that is no bad thing. I really enjoyed it on the Wii U but the gamepad always put me off playing it for long stints. |

Do we have two consoles, two copies of Splatoon and Mario Kart and four pairs of joy cons between us? Seems like playing 8 player local network games at the cottage is a must this year! We even have two TVs in the main cottage now so wouldn't have to crowd round an 8-inch screen. |

| Post subject: | Re: Nintendo Switch (formerly "NX") |
Forget Splatoon. You can only play one player per console so we'd need 8 Switches. :/ |

I think there were 3 Switches at the Cottage last year so let's not rule it out... We're almost there! |
|
| Author: | myp [ Tue Jan 30, 2018 12:20 ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Nintendo Switch (formerly "NX") |
Mario Kart would be incredibly doable though. One console docked on each TV, two copies of the game, two pairs of joy cons each - et voila! 8-player Bezzie Kart. |

Although in all fairness this should have been implemented from the get-go. So many people are losing their save games when the Switch develops a fault, the latest victim is Brian Altano of IGN who lost a huge amount of save game progress when his was sent in for repair - https://www.resetera.com/threads/brian- ... ves.20679/ |

Multiplayer sale going on.. ( https://nl.pepper.com/aanbiedingen/nint ... sale-61319 ) unfortunately it seem be mostly the same games again reduced (like mario rabbids, which has been on a bit of a constant sale) did buy enter the gungeon,(http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016- ... eon-review ) which is a fun twin stick dungeon crowler.. perfect for handheldmode.. and will probably by fast rmx, after seeing this little movie http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digit ... over-wii-u seems like a quite complete package, even though i found the wiiU (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015- ... neo-review ) version a bit empty (even thouh impressed by it visually).. and did learn there actually was a wii version too... ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mntwh53AcU ) .. might want to revisit Fzero GX after this, which remains quite amazing in my book Nintendo finally opened gold points to switch discounts, stingy as expected.. at least you get a warning before running out these days, i got new luigi U DLC for free which is sort of nice, (although i wonder when if ever i will play it) http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018- ... -purchases |
