That guy is HUGE! Can't wait till they put Wailord in then.

Are you using Tapatalk? I also cannot see these images anymore in Tapatalk since we moved the forum to the new software. I'm not sure if I can join, depends if I can finish something which you will see on the main site tomorrow.

I thought this was going to be a insta-buy for me, but after playing the Splatfest I may wait a bit more. I never played Splatoon before, but I love the theme, the setting and the characters. But after the Splatfest I'm a bit in doubt how much I will play the game. Controls are one thing, and it seems like another game which requires a ton of time to master and rank up. Right now I still have a lot of games which I still want to play, and I'm not sure this is the game I want to invest much time in. I think my strategy will be wait for some time, and wait until someone who picks it up will sell it cheap second-hand (which I think will happen since a lot of people have a Switch but there are not that many 1st party games yet, so they buy everything).

So apparently Amazon had this online for a couple of hours: Would really open the door for 3DS ports to Switch! Edit: apparently the box art is fan art, so probably fake news

Fun night! I sucked hard in the first 2 GPs. Luckily battle mode is in so I could get some points there. Got some nasty stuff (blue shell 50 meters before the finish in the one race I was in first place!) and did some nasty stuff (red shelling people who are airborne and star tackling people right before the finish line). Loved the all shy guy setup, these guys make the best sounds.

I'm in as well this week! I just sent you a friend request@BowserBasher.

Here in The Netherlands preorders are not open yet on any shop. But if I look at sites and forums, a lot of people are in panic mode, refreshing like mad or plundering your UK Amazon stock. With the NES Mini I placed a pre-order fairly early which worked out, but I feel that the hype now is even bigger. I think all in all it will work out with Nintendo promising to miss more units, but just to be sure I pre-order as soon as a Dutch site puts it up!

Yes, the NES Classic also only had a USB cable, no AC adapter. Great list of games though, I wonder if we will see a difference between the US and EU version. Is that EU version confirmed? I played a lot of SNES games and was yesterday thinking again about a SNES Classic Mini. The only real game I would have loved for 2p co-op is Turtles In Time. But very happy to be able to (re)play: Donkey Kong Country™ EarthBound™ F-ZERO™ Kirby™ Super Star Kirby’s Dream Course™ The Legend of Zelda™: A Link to the Past™ Mega Man® X Secret of Mana Star Fox™ Star Fox™ 2 Street Fighter® II Turbo: Hyper Fighting Super Castlevania IV™ Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts® Super Mario Kart™ Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars™ Super Mario World™ Super Metroid™ Yoshi’s Island™

Saves you some money that you can spend on Pokéland.

Last set of new badges will be released this week. After that, they will cycle through all the badges, including the rare ones. https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAADAAADV44BDh4AoQ

I'm in for tonight!

I liked Oblivion and "Elder Scrolls with guns" Fallout 3 and New Vegas, but never got to playing Skyrim. However, I think this is a game I really prefer to play on the PC. I can't see me playing this game with a controller, it is cheaper and it looks better with the HD pack.

Same here. You can make a budget game without doing pixel art/16 bit. But I guess it is the indie trend now to make it all look retro. The golf game looks fun, but really the pixel art is making it a no-go for me.

Good racing! I guess you just add up points for the last 3+1 races? But man that was some intense racing! Best moment was in 2nd time RR I wanted to make a shortcut jump with a mushroom but it got stolen by a ghost. On that very moment!

Added @Dcubed, ready to roll!

I will try to join tonight but can't make any promises since I've been in business trip all week and am tired AF. What is the deadline to let you know if I can join? And is it okay to let a non-forum member join (my girlfriend likes MK8 too haha).

I just installed an access point for better wi-fi, so I should be able to join some Fridays from now on! I mean, somebody needs to take that last position right?

I've never played Minecraft before (only "2D Minecraft" Terraria). But since the whole world plays it maybe I should give it a shot! Can someone explain me in short the game's mechanics? Is it completely open world or do you have some sort of goals (like Terraria)?

So, I've had my Switch for a couple of weeks now so time to sum up the results: Luckily no problems with controller desyncing, dead pixels or ruined screens yet! Poor wifi is an issue; I cannot play online or watch movies from the News section because it is not getting enough signal. My wifi signal is not the best but the Switch is worse than my smartphone for example. But even my phone often has trouble with streaming videos. So I ordered an access point; should fix it (also for my other devices)! Dock scratching I don't see yet (only some stains where he rests in the dock). I did put on one of those god-awful screen protectors just in case (I hate applying these; mine has 2 small air bubbles which I can't get out. Luckily you don't notice them when the screen is on. What I am missing most is software though. A good firmware update would be lovely, adding: - Themes - Background audio in the home menu - Achievements - Some general apps such as browser/Youtube/Netflix - Never gonna happen but: Miiverse! And maybe wifi can also be improved a little bit with a good firmware update.

Did they call it Nintendo Spotlight the other years as well? Thought they just called it a Direct?

I would prefer this. Since you randomly assign games to part 1/2/3, my 2 favourite games of the month could wind up in the same poll, while a meh game can get points due to no competition in another poll. Having one topic and assigning points would fix this.

I played the game for a couple of hours this week. Played 2 cups on 100CC (one with driving assist on since I forgot to turn it off, one with it turned off which I like better). Of course I got bombarded with lightning/blue shells/red shells all the time, which is a bit frustrating but is also very Mario Kart! Played some battle games as well, and especially Renegade Roundup looks like a great mode to play online! But I also need a wifi access point or wired connection since my wifi is shitty to begin with, and the Switch's wifi isn't helping. Tried playing it with a single joy-con+strap since some reviews complain about it being uncomfortable, but plays well for me! I'll bring my Switch tomorrow and try local multiplayer with some colleagues; everyone's been bugging me to bring it since I got it. The hype is real!

This. I love Miis and would take them over Inklings anytime. Had a lot of fun with those guys in the Streetpass Mii Park on the 3DS. And I like dressing him up in Miitomo (talk about playing with yourself...). As an avatar they are great But now link all that stuff together! I seriously thought they did so and was trying to find a way to get my Miitomo Mii to the Switch. Didn't find it, obviously.

The game is starting to sell out here in the Netherlands as well. So I'm glad I ordered it, and it will arrive tonight! Shockingly the last MK I played were the Wii and DS versions, so I can't wait to jump back into the series!

Aw damn, those 3DS themes were the one thing I loved to get using my silver coins. And now they ask for gold coins? Come on Nintendo, shitty move and my silver points keep expiring!
