Happenstance

...Peter Moore has left EA to become Liverpool's chief executive.

I played through the beta missions on Saturday with @Goafer. I thought it seemed pretty good, definitely something I'd like to play through properly but I think we both agreed it would probably be one we wait until it's under £20 to buy.

Apparently the Wii U version has leaked so there might be extra spoilers out there.

Not happy with the name. Should have been Shadow of Wardor

If I keep the preorder then I'll have Switch Pro Controller Zelda Zelda Amiibo I have Friday off work anyway so I'll be home when it arrives. I just need to decide now if I'm going to stick with the preorder or cancel and wait until the end of the year.

I expect I probably would still pick it up down the line but more for my interest in new tech rather than being excited for whats coming. This is the reason why I will probably end up keeping the preorder now as well.

Got to admit I've been considering cancelling myself over the past few days. Without the VC at launch I'm just not sure there is enough to keep me going after Zelda. Plus I think it says a lot (and this is nothing about the quality of Zelda) that I was more excited this weekend to start replaying the Mass Effect trilogy than I have been for Zelda and the Switch.

Looks like Rokhed was banned in 2009

Looks like Bill Paxton has passed away

Yeah but you would think something like that would just be built in.

So does that mean you can't create a Nintendo account directly on the Switch?

Starting my replay of the Mass Effect trilogy today on PS3. Found myself more excited for this than I am playing the Switch and Zelda next week.

I'm expecting a Fast & Furious style heist on that truck now

Finally given up on hearing news for now on a Mass Effect trilogy remaster so I bought the trilogy and all the single player DLC on the PSN sale. If the remaster ever does come then I'm sure I'll probably end up buying it again! Just a shame the DLC never goes on sale on the PC otherwise I would have bought those sooner.

Trying to setup my PS3 on my retro TV but I cant find plug. The ridiculous amount of gaming cables and plugs I have in boxes and not one is the right kind! Edit: Found it. Turns out I had a lot more cables than I thought!

I'd like to play Skyward Sword if it got a Switch re-release with standard controls. The motion controls put me off ever playing it on Wii.

I knew Rokhed for years on a few different forums as well. He was always a bit gruff but generally seemed a nice enough person. When he started his transistion he definitely had other issues that he was maybe projecting onto a lot of us. He started posting photos of himself as well that seemed more like they were just trying to cause arguments or for shock value. By the end unfortunately all he wanted was conflict.

Finally got around to having my first flight with the Mavic Pro today after having to stay in due to yesterday's storm. I thought it went ok. I've still got quite a bit to learn when it comes to smooth movements though, both with the turning of the drone and the camera. Exposure it pretty hit and miss in my video as well and some not great cuts to avoid that dodgy movement I mentioned. EDIT: Oh yeah I dont think the shot of it is brilliant but at one point you can see the manor house that the Stamper brothers from Rare fame bought in my village.

Have you guys ever thought about sending out an email to all forum members? Maybe seeing who you could get to come back. I was just going through old threads and was just amazed at how many big names I recognised that no longer post here. With the Switch coming out next week it'd be a perfect excuse I guess.

Cant even remember why anymore but I just got finished re-reading the food thread with dynastygal's famous NE meltdown in it. That sure was entertaining lol http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17481

So it seems this is once again the only Switch thread you can get some discussion in.... I'm still looking forward to playing Zelda next week but I do wonder what I'm gonna do with the Switch after that with this VC news. I'm not what you would call a Mario Kart fan and already owned 8 on the Wii U so see no need to buy it again. The other games coming either don't interest me or I would buy on other consoles/PC anyway. Iit's only really my curiosity for new tech keeping me interested at the moment.

Actually now that you mention it, I've had this pain in my foot that just won't go away. I might go see @Goafer and see if there's anything he can do.
