Quite a list indeed! May get Saturday Morning RPG, Bomb Chicken and maybe Manticore.

You mean that Mario Echo character? Yeah I don't know who they based it on. I think there once was a green Mario with a bad moustache or something...

Yeah I hope I can sneakily put it on at work too, shouldn't be a problem as it is not too busy. I wonder what they'll show, small hype!

Looks like NL edited their review as it now mentions you need Discord which wasn't there before. Sneaky sneaky.

It's up for preorder for €50, that seems pretty steep right? Played but never finished the DS version, I don't know why because of what I can remember I liked it. Anyone played the android/iOS version? I wonder how that compares. And how they translated this dual screen multi input game to touch only in the first place.

This game is looking so good. The only point is I usually don't play fighters a lot (only in short bursts) so I'm not sure if I can justify the full pricepoint. Especially with a couple of more budget fighters releasing on the Switch as well to choose from. Then again, this does look like the better game, plus it is of a franchise I really like. Which reminds me I still have Xenoverse 1 still hardly played on Steam. While I really liked Budokai Tenkaichi 2 on Wii a lot, I never really have gotten into it. FighterZ appeals a lot more as it is 2D. Anyone played it on other platforms already? How is it for single player/story mode?

When it first got announced I really wanted it. Quite soon after I thought, well, I have had a bit of overkill with playing MH Tri, 3 Ultimate, 4 Ultimate and Generations which for my feeling came quite close after each other, especially if you see how much time goes into it. So skipping MHGU. But now the day is coming closer I can feel the thrill of the hunt again. Seeing movies like the one above definitely helps! Plus I want to play a MH game on a large screen again. Plus dual analogue sticks, even in handheld! So yeah, I'm getting this! So Agnaktors, hide your Uroktors, it is ON!

Oh shit, I'm writing for this site and I never owned a WiiU. Don't tell @Ashley!

Thanks for the games @Sméagol and @Nintendo Fan, woohoo! It is definitely more fun to play with people you know. --- I really like the game, but there is also much that can be improved. It plays great, and I really have the feeling that I can improve a lot. Learning what all the abilities are of the different champions and to what keys they are bound to (it happens so often that I fire missiles instead of activating my shield...). The action is nice and quick, plenty of variation between the champs, and plenty to unlock (like the four abilities you can choose from at the start of the match). I won't go for the Champions pack, as I like saving gold to unlock that champion that you really want. In the long run I will probably regret it as prices are pretty steep, but on the other hand now the roster is pretty limited which I actually like, so I can try out everyone in an easy pace. Maybe I'll go for the Season Pass, but I need to look into what it offers. I must say this part is a little bit confusing, plus they go quite overboard with steering you towards purchases. Every time you level up the Battle Pass level, it asks you if you want to buy it. Next to that you can unlock champions, skins, mounts, exclusives and the whatnot. Plus you can also buy those lootboxes. They really have thrown in every microtransaction model they could think of. The presentation is allright but I think the menus are a bit confusing as well. Going in-game is not a big problem, but the other menus feel mixed up. Like going to the shop for the Daily Reward, but other missions displayed in another menu. Various tabs per menu which you need to scroll through. The Champions themselves are nice but also a bit cliché and they don't appeal to me as much as for example the ones from League Of Legends or Dota2. Then again I have that problem with every other moba game than those 2. Loading and preparing times are already discussed and yeah they could fix this. Jump to customize your champion as soon as everyone has selected a champ could cut times. And with Onslaught, why the hell am I waiting 50 seconds before the game starts? And then you get thrown on a mount which is first of all silly (Ruckus on a horse...), and totally obsolete since the distance to the center is not that big. Yeah some things they may fix but others they probably won't, as the game is out already a while on different platforms and I don't see them drastically overhauling stuff that they do in the other versions. So a lot to complain about, but I like the fast paced action and the variety, trumping Fortnite in the free-to-play shooter genre. TL;DR: Great game with some quality issues.

Ah yes hmm, well let's go for attendance then. So keep it.

Keeping it is good right? Then yes, keep it

Forgot I have to get up bleeding early tomorrow for work, so will only be on for a round or 2.

Communication error on GP 2 race 1.

If you go on quickly after MK League (say 8:45 UK) I can also join for a couple of games. Would be nice to play with some familiar people!

For those who are still on the fence about this game: apparently there is a demo out now. I fired it up again this week (finished the game with only 69% completion) so now I'm seeing if I can get close to that 100 percent. It's great to dive into the world again.

That sucks, get well! I'm IN for tonight, so I'll send you a bedazzling setup soon @Glen-i.

Yeah I feel the same, I don't want to have to switch between different regions and keep track of what is where. Still a shame though that EU is missing out on Capcom's physical releases (same with Resident Evil).

Unfortunately not! So I'll refrain from importing as half of it is a download code...

@Hero-of-Time, where did you get the physical version from? Since I believe it is US only right?

Oh man, I still need to get Shantae. Loved The Pirates Curse. Next time it is on sale I'll grab it!

So an Ultimate Edition (physical release) is coming end of August, including a bunch of the DLC. The game will cost $39,99 on PS4 and XBox 1, and $49,99 on Switch. *sigh*

I must say here in the Netherlands I cannot find it anywhere under 50 euros, so not sure if it is a budget title. Got hopes it gets down to half of that pretty soon, as I wouldn't mind a wiggle party game on Switch (who would know I would ever say that!). But I'm missing a game like that when there are friends over or to play with the misses.

Nope! But last sale (the E3 one) they actually had first parties on sale (Zelda, Splatoon 2). But discounts were only 10-15% so you can probably pick it up cheaper physical somewhere. It's indeed curious how price stable Nintendo games are. They are almost like Apple hardware.

Check the 3DS sale, lots of first parties! With a lot less discount though. 30% max.

I only ever played the first Mega Man X and loved that one (never owned it but we rented it a lot back then!). So I'm tempted to pick up at least the first Legacy X. The last few games are said to be worse anyway.
