Not that they're not suitable, they're just hard! But that might be me being patronising to kids 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 New Direct tomorrow. I don’t expect to see anything new apart from the possible catalogue update of GB/GBC/GBA/N64 games to the online service. Otherwise just updates on Dread and other stuff due out before Christmas I’d imagine. Part of me hopes for something special though but it’s Nintendo so never get your hopes up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GBC/A games would be awesome and long overdue. I don't expect anything crazy, hopefully the last Smash character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Decent direct. N64 games, Bayonetta 3 etc… A lot for most people, not a lot for me personally, literally about the only thing I got excited for was a port of Kotor and the Castlevania Advance Collection. Was hoping for a Super Metroid, Metroid Zero Mission & Fusion pack but alas. N64 games is a big boon for the online but as a physical collector it doesn’t interest me much. Most big games have been ported/remade by now and outside of No Mercy I’m not that interested. Edited September 23, 2021 by Ingram85 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Online is very interesting too. Imagine if Mario Party 3 is released. Playing online would be amazing. I'm excited for KOTOR. I've always heard good things about it, but never played it.

Ingram85 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Just a heads up for anyone who missed out on the couple of physical edition limited runs of Carrion, it’s getting a general physical release next month. These limited run sites are becoming more unnecessary with each month. I bought Republic Commando on switch from LRG and missed out on SW Racer, still haven’t received my order and there’s now a double pack of both games coming out on PS4 and switch in all stores. Same with the Jedi knight games. Don’t think I’ll be ordering any more limited run games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Greatest Smash reveal ever (I would say that if course). But a very underrated part of the reveal was that all the Kingdom Hearts games are coming to the Switch. Incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its good and worth a play But the bizarre thing is obviously PS5 gets a remake whilst switch gets a port, it was bad timing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard pass. Guess I'll wait til I get a PS5 to play the whole series which came in one bundle on the PS4 for $40 instead of 3 separate $60 entries that you can only play on WiFi (defeats the whole purpose of a Switch).

Chindie Posted October 5, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2021 Sora in Smash is more remarkable for the fact they managed to do it more than anything. The lawyers will have had a field day with how many people will have a stake in that property. He doesn't feel like a Smash character to me somehow, and he's another sword character in a game that has loads of them. But for people that have a love for Kingdom Hearts, it doesn't matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow the 3 stingiest companies, Square, Disney and Nintendo managed to collab and agree on a character. I'm surprised his final smash wasn't him slapping the opponent with a DMCA. Notable though there's no Disney representation at all. No song, not even Donald and Goofy. The stage was one of the few unique worlds in the original game. It's like Disney said "yeah okay fine you can use him, but keep our names out ya mouths!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Very impressed with the lads oled. The screen is beautiful, everything overall feels a lot more premium than my switch from kickstand, buttons, the materials used, it’s all cleaned up a bit in terms of the body of it. I’m tempted to order a white dock as I’m a bit jealous of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Can anyone help. My grandson likes big open world racing games, Forza on the Xbox one is a favourite. Can anyone suggest a racing game that fits for the switch. Prefer it to be cars, not trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered or Burnout Paradise Remastered would be my suggestions. Also, if he fancies something completely different either the new Hot Wheels game or the excellent Cruis’n Blast! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 So they added a few new things to switch online, you think an increase of what? £5? £10? No, try £17. £34.99 lol, what a bunch of jokers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Limited Run Games are doing a physical release of Mushihimesama, which is awesome as the only other physical version was the Japanese PS2 one which would be useless to me. It's my favourite shoot-em-up. There's a collector's edition too, but the price is way out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I upgraded yesterday and got it for £40 for a family membership, and the old one was £31. So not too bad. It was a discounted price though, I assume that's for a limited time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people were complaining about input lag and some graphical issues like on Ocarina of Time for example: Some of it like the online lag is overblown I imagine though.
