At that price, it's very unlikely I'll be able to save up enough money to get it at launch. Even with 50 quid off thanks to an Amazon voucher. So Undecided for me. Not to mention the awful practice of charging for online play. Thanks for that, Microsoft... I wonder how many people have changed their mind about wanting the Switch to not use Wii U controllers now after that price.

It's looking more and more likely that two items is the only option available. Hope you like Ultra-defensive Mario Kart!

I like how the title implies that Xenoblade Chronicles X never happened. Thank Bionis that they bought ACE back for the soundtrack! Maybe it won't be totally awful now!

What makes you think that was Chrom? Looked more like Marth to me. Makes a lot more sense for it to be Marth.

Coffee shop Wi-Fi? For online multiplayer? Yeah, that's not happening. See? I'm the kind of guy who only plays stuff online for about 3 days of the week. Paying for that seems like a kick in the face to me.

This is interesting... "Subscribers will get to download and play a NES or SNES game (with newly added online play) for free a month." Online Super Mario Kart? EDIT: Ninja'd Very annoyed at the monthly subscription though. I'm not able to play online whenever I like and feel like I'd be screwed over there...

The Parental Control App trailer is sickeningly adorable. Laughed out loud at Bowser's Lock Screen Background!

I just have one massive shrug of indifference for that presentation. Nothing got me that excited. Here's hoping Treehouse has some more exciting stuff for me. Ouch at that price though! UK is gonna feel the pinch on this.

Oh crap, I've accidently tuned into a rave... Music sounds like something from Earthbound. IT'S A SIGN!

Yeah, like some actual fun. (Geez, if Splatoon, Now with new hat is a pack-in game for the Switch, I am going to be very annoyed.)

That would be weird, but he finished on Karate Man Combos. I'm pedantic. And anyway, I bet he didn't struggle nearly as much as you did on Freeze Frame.

Is anyone else getting flashbacks to the Sega Mega Drive?

It's a real shame. As hit-and-miss as I find Platinum's games. This one definitely piqued my interest when it was first shown. On the plus side, if Ninty or Sony do decide to swoop in and pay for it, we can expect loads of people saying stupid things like "How dare they pay for exclusivity! This is a total slap in the face for fans!"

'Yoshi contemplated the thought, he couldn't actually go through with this. It was wrong, it was sick, no-one would understand why he did it, but the more he looked at Poochy and his strangely complex series of emotions, the more he knew that it was inevitable really. "He knows what's going on." Yoshi thought to himself, "He ain't stupid." Looking back on the many adventures they had, the many intense meaningful conversations that occurred, like that time Poochy stared at Yoshi, not to mention that other time Poochy stared at Yoshi. And who could forget that moment between the two of them where Poochy stared at Yoshi. Almost as if to exentuate the point, Poochy ran into the room and stared at Yoshi. "Bark!" Poochy said. Yoshi panicked, it's almost like he knew what he was thinking of doing. But before he could react, Poochy took an apple and ran out of the room. "There's no point in prolonging it any longer, he's practically begging for it at this point" Yoshi concluded his thoughts. It was almost like it was fate. He'd have to kill Poochy.'

Seriously though, I can't understand that, Pokemon games aren't exactly hard to beat. Where's the sense of adventure and discovery if you just use the same-old Pokemon you always do? People like that are why we can't have nice things...

I could do Saturdays, not Sundays though. That's when I hunt Giant monsters!

That's exactly as sinister as I'd want it to be. And I wouldn't put it past Koei Tecmo. Remember the scene in Twilight Princess where Twili Midna uses her tear to break the Mirror of Twilight? You know, that kinda sad scene. They made that her best attack! @Dcubed and I couldn't believe what we were seeing!

Someone doesn't want the obscene amount of money poured into those to go to waste, huh?

Even better, why not hit someone up here? Anyone with access to Moon can get one for you to keep. You have to do a few things first. 1. Beat the game. 2. Put your Solgaleo on your team. 3. Head to the Altar of the Sunne, during the day. 4. There'll be an Ultra Wormhole there, go in that. You'll now be in the alternate version of Alola. Like Moon, Day and night is reversed. But there are still no Moon exclusive Pokemon, so don't bother. A few things to do here... 1. Head to the place where the Lake of the Moone was in your dimension. You know, that incredibly suspicious empty place. However, here, it's called the Lake of the Sunne. 2. If you're aiming to soft reset for a good natured Lunala, now's the time to save. 3. Go to the end of Lake of the Sunne. 4. You'll be given a Cosmog. Cosmog, as you should be aware, evolves into Solgaleo. But you don't want to do that. 1. Train your Cosmog to around Level 50, AND NO FURTHER. 2. Now trade that to someone with access to Pokemon Moon. Someone like, Oh, I don't know... Me? 3. Get them to level that until it evolves. Because it's on Moon, it'll evolve into a Lunala instead. 4. Trade it back. Ta-Da! Your very own Lunala! Under your name, so you can nickname it whatever stupid name you want!

Am I right in remembering that there was an old anime episode where Officer Jenny refers to her Growlithe as 'Arcanine"? Maybe you two should trade? I can't believe your team consisted of so many Pokemon from Gen 1! And I'm even more amazed you stuck with Butterfree! Butterfree makes Lycanroc look viable! At least I'll know who to blame when the Diamond/Pearl remakes come out and every Pokemon has been replaced with the first 150.

You see, I wasn't that keen on the idea of Fire Emblem Warriors, most of the characters don't really appeal to me. Half the fun of Hyrule Warriors is the mostly insane characters the Zelda series has. But I would literally buy the game for Mamorin alone! "Switch-ee ON!"

Okie dokie, @S\.C\.G Let's go die! That actually went better than I thought. Shame about @Dcubed getting disconnected... How did that happen? I didn't get disconnected, but he did. We're on the same connection! The only issue is that we were a little behind time with each Monster, with a fourth hunter and a little bit of luck, I think we could pull it off!

If it was me, I would go with Lycanroc, but I choose playthrough teams purely on looks. Honestly, Midnight Lycanroc is crap. Lunala is way good, but it is a Legendary. Have you considered a Jangmo-o? It's Dragon/Fighting which your team doesn't have either of, Kommo-o looks like a Seregios and it has a good Moveset. It's a great Attacker and a good Special Attacker, so it's very versatile. It's a bit slow and has a horrendous Fairy weakness, but it's pretty solid for beating the game. You can get one in the outside sections of Vast Poni Canyon, in tall grass. They're pretty rare, you'll have to look for a bit.

You're talking to the guy who uses a Grumpig and a Feraligatr on his team since Gen 5! Pokemon I like has been the entire basis of my team since I started battling seriously. It's still impressive how you managed to get an Ice Team to Blue. Hail has been the most useless Weather condition for a long time (Aurora Veil and Slush Rush are very welcome additions this Gen) and Ice types have never been lucky when it comes to Type Matchups. I mean, they only resist Ice for crying out loud. Jangmo-o Giveaway In the process of getting a Jangmo-o I'm happy with, I've got a few that have pretty great IV's, but weren't what I was looking for. It seems a waste to just release them, so does anyone here want one? I've got 6 spare. I'll detail them in a spoiler. They all have outstanding potential. No egg moves or hidden abilities, mind.
