True thing man, I just wanna play it tomorrow :p if it is at Argos too then I can order and collect, so I'll order midnight tonight and swoop in tomorrow morning!

I'll be getting it for that price! Do you think I'll be ok getting to my local game when it opens 9am tomorrow? Or should I get it online?

I like the new characters though I'm not too keen on the art style, they have that pointy edged, sketchy feel of Nuts & Bolts, I'd have preferred the old bug-eyed silicon graphics look but I know I'm the only person in the world that prefers the latter so in the grand scheme of things they made the right call :p

That latest trailer is great, it's really got me pumped for the game now. It looks beautiful graphically and my biggest concern was that it didn't have the Paper Mario vibe but it certainly seems to have it now. The only thing I'm slightly concerned about is that card based battle system controlled by the GamePad, I like to do most of my gaming with the Pro Controller now, but it's only a small niggle. I'll be picking this up relatively soon, but I'm going to complete Tokyo Mirage first and have Xenoblade X and Pokken recently purchased that I plan to sink my teeth into so I'll keep this on the horizon as a Christmas or New Year purchase. Kind of crazy how suddenly my gaming plans are completely filled by the Wii U again as I'm hoping to get Bayonetta 2 at some point too before Zelda lands. At this rate I can hang on to not getting an NX until the famous 6 month post release Nintendo system price drop panic!

Thanks, I'll get a few more coins tonight then! I've never really had to grind that much in this game but I just had to at the start of Chapter 6 to get enough 6-star prestige for the groups new weapons and skills, still, I don't mind at this point because with all the sessions and dual-arts, every battle is really fun and dramatic, not to mention the dungeon music for Chapter 6 is fucking wonderful. And I wish I could set Chroms 'enemy nearby' shout as my text tone, his delivery of 'ITSUKI' gets me every time.

I've stupidly only just discovered the arena :p so I kinda blasted through beginner and intermediate. What do you get from the coins? And where can you trade them in?

I always fear that Nintendo will just repeat the past with the NX and this thread about hardcore vs casual is doing just that, I bet I could rip most of this conversation from a topic in 2007, just replacing mobile with Wii and COD and Fifa with...erm, COD and Fifa. And oh man, a Yokai event, NOA are trying so hard to make Yokai happen but I think they should just accept its not going to do well over here :p I can see why they're scrambling to get it off its feet though, I couldn't believe how much Yokai stuff there was in Japan, you 'd have thought Yokai Watch and Kirby were the only videogames to exist over there. Also am I missing something with these rumoured pictures that people keep getting excited about? What in particular makes that roughly drawn picture of a Frankenstein Wii U special? I could draw that and throw it out into the wild with ease. Is it the people reporting on said rumours that's the big deal? Or are we just that desperate for NX stuff?

I'm going to take the plunge on a ps4 soon for Hatsune Miku but want some advice. Is the original model gonna drop in price dramatically after the slim and neo? Will the slim be cheaper anyway? Basically, should I wait or just go for it :p

His voice is beautiful, I don't care the character myself but it's good exposure for both Yooka and Shovel Knight I guess

Lol that d-pad, people didn't really fall for that did they? Then again I thought the rumours of a 6inch screen on a controller before the Wii U reveal were ridiculous.

That looks gross, I'm so peeved the hybrid rumour is true as I can't stand the idea. It's gonna take a hell of a lot to get me on board with NX and Nintendo arent doing a great job with this whole "let's just not reveal anything" stance.

Depending on the chapter he flips between amazing and terrible for me, I can never make my mind up :p

Just Dance is primarily used with smart phones as controllers now so just because that game is coming doesn't mean there has to be a form of motion controller and I really hope there isn't. If Wii U was confusing then how confusing will a handheld/home hybrid with detachable controllers, middle screens and motion controllers be.

I just finished the side story 'Barry Forever', he was always a bit weird but it seemed almost sweet but now he's just full on creepy.

Sounds good to me, I'll be playing more again now it's on the Apple Watch, it'll make hatching eggs a lot easier!

Why is everyone so bitter? Nintendo are making a very good business decision that clearly isn't taking up much development time and wasn't aimed at most of us anyway. I don't see such an uproar when they release the likes of Brain Training or Nintendogs. And to write off the entire mobile market just makes you look ignorant and out of touch.

Thanks @FireMeowth ! I've done it now, I should have paid more attention to the unbreakable walls! I cleared the section and cleared one set of performa, now off to the 106! I'm getting a bunch of these double-up moves in the sessions now too, it's so satisfying having 4 or 5 sessions, then having a double up attack and getting another bunch of sessions, I never knew combos could get so high!

It says to go to the tv station idolasphere to find the dragon shard but when I enter it doen't give any more details, do I have to literally seaech the entire dungeon again?

I'm really stuck on Chapter 5, I just can't work out what to do. Can anyone help me?

Yeah I heard they want to create a universe similar to what they did with Diddy Kong Racing (with its inclusion of Conker and Banjo), hopefully this time they'll have more time to realise that idea! And the game looks fantastic in that EuroGamer video, I really can't wait to play this now

Yeah, digital only sadly it looks fun as always and I certainly MUCH prefer this art style over the big head 3ds models but the arcade version just looks so much better graphically and song-wise which is why it breaks my heart they're only localising this game.

How have you guys been getting on with this? I'm on Chapter 3 and loving it though I have to admit I'm a complete noob. I haven't properly played an RPG in years so whilst I started on normal I did slip to easy when it suggested that I should :P Alas, I'm really enjoying it for the story and weird side-quests as much as anything. The battles look fancy and exciting but I don't know enough about RPG's to really dig too deep into it so I'm fine just breezing through on easy as I am and accidently triggering sessions haha

I'm just giving up on this until the servers are sorted, hopefully all the buzz isn't dead by then :p

Damn, at least I know now, me and my friends came across a Staryu that was 3 steps away wherever we walked, we thought maybe it just kept moving away from us somehow

After 3 years of obsessively watching music videos of lovely places around the country I'd really like to go to South Korea, I could time it with a couple of live concerts too :p I'd love to go back to Japan, what I saw was amazing, but I was whizzing all over the place trying to take all the attractions in, it would be nice to go for longer and at a calmer pace. I've always loved the look of Canada, and I really wanna go fishing there too (it's the small things :p)
