  1. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

    Charging full whack for what is essentially a 3 year old game with the DLC bundled in is pretty audacious. If it was £30, then I'd be interested in shelling out again. I quite enjoyed Mario Kart 8 all in all.
  2. Arms

    Looks like Nintendo were watching The Simpsons when they came up with this.
  3. @Ashley I'm interested in the Switch's ability to connect to TVs/Monitors without the dock. Would love to know if you could simply take the Switch to a friend's house and hook it up to their TV using just a HDMI cable. Or if you need to dock the system to connect to a TV, does the dock use standard cables, does the dock need to be plugged in to function, do I also have to transport the dock and cables with me etc. It would also be brilliant if the Switch could 'cast' to a TV wirelessly a la Chromecast/Amazon Fire Stick but not hoping for much on this front. Not sure if any of this has been answered since I haven't been keeping up to date with the rumours.
  4. Super Mario Run (iOS/Android)

    Late to the party on this, but only just read that the game is online only. Unfortunately that's pretty much a deal breaker for me since I wouldn't be able to play it on the Tube (or even on a train). Very disappointing, here's hoping Nintendo don't go down this route for their future mobile endeavours.
  5. I think Sheikah means PS4 Remote Play using the Vita. Makes me wonder if Nintendo ever thought about implementing such a feature for Switch. For instance playing Switch remotely using a tablet and bluetooth/wireless controllers.
  6. I'm annoyed that Stardew Valley isn't coming out on Vita. As people have already mentioned, it would make a great handheld game.
  7. Destiny

    Count me in. Are you really going away, or are you just going to appear offline and play FFXV for days on end?
  8. Destiny

    Yes please!
  9. Job woes/wins

    My old project was based in St Paul's and the lunch options were spectacular. So much choice. I would also buy a ridiculous amount of half price Itsu whenever I worked late. Current project is in West London and the food options aren't so great. I'm already getting bored of Tesco sandwiches, not sure how I'm going to cope for another six months [/firstworldproblems].
  10. Destiny

    Sign me up! Available tomorrow and most of the week.
  11. Destiny

    Could do late Sunday (like 9pm ish) or Monday.
  12. Destiny

    I can't do tonight, but can do tomorrow, Thursday and maybe Friday. Not around at all this weekend.
  13. Destiny

    Would be up for Raiding. Can't do Saturday but should be good otherwise.
  14. Alright you slags, who is up for meeting up? Last year's thread Unless there are strong protestations, this will take place in London like it has done every year. Post your interest/disinterest here. Edit by Cube: Spreadsheet
  15. Destiny

    I can Raid on Saturday, no problem.
  16. The 'Other' Switch Thread

    If I may, I'll extend this laptop analogy. Laptops were originally considered niche, but are now very widely used, since they have evolved to an extent where, from a functional perspective, people do not use them fundamentally differently to that of a desktop computer. The work I do on a laptop is no different to the work I do on a desktop. They have exactly the same functionality and purpose, only difference is that I can put my laptop in my bag and carry it around with me. Desktops of course will always have a niche because extra power is necessary for certain activities. Switch is to laptops as PS4 is to desktops. Personally, if I buy a Switch, I would see myself mostly using it in its docking station hooked up to my TV. So for me, it would primarily be a home console that I could transport, rather than a portable console that I could also stream to my TV. Anyway, it's all semantics. What's important is how they market the thing, and how they push it in terms of their software output.
  17. Destiny

    I can Raid tonight.
  18. Super Mario Switch

    Admit it, if they ever released a Mario Cricket you would snap it up. I can imagine it now. A Mushroom Kingdom touring XI playing cricket on Isle Delfino. Luigi valiantly building an innings against aggressive fast bowling from Wario. Donkey Kong keeping wicket, sledging from Waluigi, Toadsworth umpiring, Peach and Daisy preparing the teas... Would be a real system seller I reckon.
  19. Super Mario Switch

    From the camera angle and the seemingly linear nature of the level, it gave me a Crash Bandicoot vibe more than anything. My preference would be a 64/Sunshine style 3D Mario, but would be interested to see if they take it in a different direction.
  20. Destiny

    Sorry, Saturday morning is also fine with me and can do any time Sunday.
  21. Destiny

    I'm available to Raid on Saturday. Last couple of times I've been using Nova Bomb to take down the Captains. They go down in one hit. No nonsense, plus you get to save heavy ammo for the boss. I'm at the end of the Dark Drinker quest (just need to do the Strike) so hopefully I can get that at some point to try out in the Raid. I've been using Sleeper to DPS the bosses, but it lacks the overall utility of a Gjallarhorn or an exotic sword.
  22. Destiny

    Would be up for Raiding. Could do tonight if we get a team, otherwise I'm reasonably free the rest of the week.
  23. Destiny

    Not sure what you're on about, Daft wasn't in the raid!
  24. There really isn't much hype around the NX outside of the internet gaming community, mostly because Nintendo haven't unveiled anything. We don't even know what the NX is, apart from it's the next big Nintendo thing. It's difficult to get hyped about a hypothetical "something". For all we know (which are rumours and speculation), Nintendo could have put a halt to the whole project. Maybe someone at Nintendo thought that releasing a hybrid console would be a shit idea. Not saying that's the case, but you would have thought that we would have heard something by now if they're supposed to be releasing in March.
  25. I massively cocked up my preparations by overspending on one player. I've got a decent enough squad now, but have had no money to train players... The Baggies look very strong at this stage, although your squad looks more LA Galaxy than West Brom!
