I remember buying that when it first came out, thinking I'd be ace at it because of my drumming skills.

I was not.

Great game though.

For a usb drive. Purportedly for consoles....

Fair enough, I thought for a minute you'd bought a branded internal drive, which would've been bonkers. Isn't that one pretty over-priced though, based purely on the spec comparison at the bottom of the Amazon page? I'd have thought that when dealing with video files--which are generally chunky--that paying more for a drive with such a properly awful transfer rate is a pretty bad idea.

ETA: actually, belay that, it seems the Amazon page is just massively under-reporting the transfer rate of the SoT drive there.

You're very welcome, though I'm not convinced it's necessarily worth ~£12; the mobile pricing was much more appropriate.

Yeah, I did notice that, and I know it's short: I don't care. I want to play it on Switch for bigger screen / TV reasons.

Fair. Although, thinking about it, I'm not sure how well the controls will translate to a console style touchscreen. Using a mouse on the PC version would be a step down from a touch screen but still work; on the Switch I can only imagine an on screen pointer controlled by one of the sticks which will be usable but definitely less enjoyable.

It reviewed well enough on PS4 so it must have pad controls; but of course the Switch has a touchscreen that I plan to play on. (MrsDoc might use the TV though.)

Huh. My only contact with the Switch was once at myp's and he told me the touchscreen isn't used for actual games. I presume now though I've picked him up wrong and he meant only it wasn't used for any games that he actually own.

Yes. Not a lot of games use it, but some do, and from the reviews I've read Gorogoa is one of them.

I read some reviews and found it's a little stripped back, but for £18 you can't really complain. It's got all the World Cup venues and teams in a free update too! Remember when they were separate full price games?

I did think about getting it for the PS4 but Sal would murder me if I monopolised the living room playing football games, as she hates me watching the World Cup as it is.
