Very slowly here too. Why does the background download never seem to work anymore?

Downloaded it this morning and will see what I think, added you three as friends and here’s my code for anyone else. 6271 6914 3505

Great end with the all Isabelle match. We also had a all Captain Falcom match left to random once too Fantastic night, @Glen-i, should I apologise for annihilating @Ike with Pyra? Sorry dude, I just seem to be pretty good with her. Didn’t think I was that good though. In fact I think I’ve improved vastly over the years of playing with you guys. Some very close and balanced matches. Highlights coming later.

Yeah mentioned this a page or so back too. The fact they put it in there is great. Will have to try it out next time I play.

It is done. This maybe the best one yet in terms of how it’s been created and put together. Though the NES is still up there. This will easily sit proud on display. A great set to anyones collection.

Dang. Really need to get the N64 controller for the N64 games, come on Nintendo put them back up. Had a go at Sin and Punishment and just found it awkward to play using the pro controller. Mario Tennis was more fun to play with it though. And funny that the core game hasn’t changed much. Also I can’t believe how awesome we all thought those graphics were. I guess back then they were, but looking back they look so dated and just blocks. Will be trying some of the other games out later. Can’t wait for Mario Golf to hit it though.

This is why most of mine end up being from the standard camera view. I don’t mind the converting to video part but the fact that you can’t pause or rewind that makes it annoying. If you want certain parts in the video using different views, you have to either get it all done in one go changing the view as you go along or make multiple replays. To make that 11 minute video must have taken either a lot of planning for the angles to be done in one shot, or many many converted replays.

Are we playing tonight @Glen-i or changing to Saturday as we seemed to get some more people. That’s if those that played can do that again.

Built a few more bags of this, started on Lava Lava Land and the little details are so neat. It really is a lovely piece. Loving this set.

If I’m remembering correctly, the classic pro controller had analogue shoulder buttons, the only one to have them, unfortunately hardly any games made use of them, I think I remember an F1 game did, as I’m sure that’s where I found it out. But otherwise the WiiU one should be fine.

Yeah I think the majority of those issues are going to be from people with poor wifi reaching the switch. I had mine like that for a long time and noticed Mario Kart and Smash with NE would sometimes be bad, since switching to an Ethernet adapter, I have zero issues with any online games here. As @Glen-i mentioned, me and him have had Smash Bros sessions where you would think you are playing together on the same switch and last Saturdays 8 player NE night went smoother than some of our 3 or 4 player nights. I don’t remember a single stutter. I’ll be upgrading my membership on Friday when I get paid just in time for the AC DLC to hit.

I got the Mario ? Block my birthday. Just about to build it and have found a little paragraph in the booklet on it being the ? Block. It’s acknowledged that the block doesn’t appear in SM64 and that the game has the red, blue and green ones. But then there’s this part, I think that perfect explanation.

Is the sub 4 hour ending or reward much different? I’m not sure if I’d ever be able to get that kind of time.

Right, I know @Glen-i video will be up with substantially more content but he can’t get the custom stage ones added, so I took the opportunity to use my capture device to get that @RedShell stage shown. But first here’s a little vid from last weeks games. And now for the highlight. With a little extra at the start. I did win one after all, am I’m taking that win, thanks RedShell.

Thanks to everyone for showing up. That’s possibly the first ever 8 player room we’ve had. @RedShell you may have outdone yourself with the everyone’s here stage. No one expected that. I should be able to record the first one. I didn’t win a game but had so much fun. Thanks all. See you Thursday for anyone playing.

7 NE smashers. I’ve missed these day. Take This! Thunder! Back Off.

It is done. There’s clearly rooms in the game that you can totally miss just playing normally, are are just there to hide energy tanks and missile upgrades. Spoiler tagging some of the shinespark puzzles I’ve done just in case. Great game and addition to the series. I’ve never 100% a Metroid game before so this is an even greater achievement for me. I don’t know if I’ll get the sub 4 hour ending time for whatever that gets you, but I can see playing this again (I want to try to do the early bombs and grapple beam for the secret Kraid kill)

Been doing some more tonight, up to 91% with just Burenia (88%) and Artaria (72%) to do. Noticed that the ones I need to do are possibly hiding entire rooms, I found that out in Dairon by the elevator to Artaria, a whole section I didn’t know was there. So it’s off to check the last two areas, I can get this 100% and that will be some achievement for me in a Metroid game.

So an hour and a half and I don’t know how many retries I just beat the final boss. Great game, thoroughly enjoyed it, even when the bosses gave me grief.

So as many Metroid players know the game is a great one for expert players to sequence break, getting items early and getting to section early. Well it seems this game is no different and people are already doing that. However the best part Is that the developers put something in the game for those that are finding this. Gonna put it in spoiler tags just in case.

So I’ve made it to Raven Beak and he kicked my butt so I’ve gone back through the areas collecting as much as I can, going to the places I haven’t been and basically “painting” the whole map (as in covering every inch of it). I’ve found some of the boost puzzles to be challenging, but I’ve managed to pull them off. Samus with all her abilities somehow seems over powered compared to the start of the game, the screw attack pretty much makes her invincible but this is great for exploring every inch of the planet. I’ll be covering more of the maps before I head back up to have another go at Raven Beak again. Hopefully he doesn’t put up too much of a challenge.

And the controllers are out of stock. Hope they put more up. Really would like one.

It will be able to be used on the main game if you’ve bought the DLC. I’m guessing you may have meant standalone. I personally loved the updates. Some nice new features, a few good little updates and two major changes in the visitor island and DLC. Cooking added just means I need to find a place to plant the veg. The first person camera mode looks cool, permanent ladders, new characters, new emotes, some new items. Shame they said it was the last major update but I’m going to assume this was planned over a longer timeframe but didn’t happen cause of the pandemic. So it’s all come now. Oh and also still playing every day here Also a little confused over the DLC and NSO sub bit. Hope they clear that up a bit.

Oooh pick me! I’ll take Timeless River (that’s the black and white old timey one right). And yay, @Ugh first aid will be here to school us in the ways of Rosalina.
