This game just updated: Also it’s on sale for £4.99

This movie is looking amazing, everything about it just seems perfect to me. The offical site for the film has been updated, its designed to look like the actual website the Mario bros use to promote their plumbing business: https://www.smbplumbing.co.uk/

They was a lot of fun and nice that we had a full room of 12 players at one point. The yoshi island track is amazing.

The Switch is 6 years old today

Ok I love that recent trailer

The game is now up on the eshop for preorder for £59.99

That was a great direct. That new track they've made for Mario kart look awesome and I’m really happy to have Birdo back, I used that character all the time on Wii

I’m never sure what I want from a direct when it comes to Nintendo themselves, I’m generally happy with whatever they show. I think we might see a new Donkey Kong game since he seems to feature in the upcoming movie. As for anything else, all I can think of are things related to random rumours we’ve heard over the past six months, such as Wind Waker and Twilight princess Wii U ports, Metroid Prime HD. Here are sone left field predictions from me: Shenmue 1 and 2 Jet Set Radio Marvel Vs Capcom 2 Mario Galaxy 2 Metal Gear Solid Some kind of cross over announcement with Nintendo and Fortnite. I only recently started playing Fortnite a few weeks ago and love it, id like to see a Samus skin in there and some other Nintendo themed items.

Yeah, this was a surprise to me too as I’ve never actually used the feature before and just assumed it was for remapping buttons only. It’s great and I’m glad the feature is there as I don’t think I could have gotten used to playing this game on a pro controller otherwise. I found a lot of the objectives and locations of things came back to me after about 20 minutes of playing although I did have to look up how to break the communication link in surface 2.

For anyone having difficulty with the controls, like I was, there a handy guide on Reddit for remapping the buttons. I’d already swapped the left and right analog sticks on the switch settings to play it but it also goes into changes which buttons do what:

Last year I backed the Kickstarter type program that Hasbro set up for a replica of the Proton pack from Ghostbusters. It arrived last night: I've never really been interested in props before, but a year or so ago I bought the neutrona-wand and then for whatever reason I felt like buying this for myself as well. It's really well made and really does look like its straight out of the films. It came in a huge box with a few other goodies:

A Muppet Christmas Carol is my favourite but Scrooged is a very close second for me

I've not had a chance to update my copy yet but someone listed details of the dipswitch changes:

That's awesome that they added so much to the game with an update and that they are still going to add some things in the future. I'm also glad they changed the menu icon box art. Digital Eclipse did a live stream going into the different things they added:

4 games announced and released for the Genesis/Megadrive a few hours ago:

The Switch Xmas sale seems to have started on the eshop: https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Nintendo-eShop/Nintendo-eShop-Sale/Nintendo-eShop-Sale-1460557.html

A new maximum cup announced, this time for a new Kirby theme:

I still come back and replay random levels of this game because of how much fun it is. It’s actually spoiled me for when I went back to play older TMNT games in Cowabunga collection as the little QoL touches this game has make the older games less enjoyable to me now. I am still hoping they add some new content to this game at some point.

A clip of the movie was shown at the Game awards last night:
