Collected all Gems and Boos today and it seems you get a small reward for completing each of these tasks: I was hoping for something a little better for all that work, but its still nice you get something. It seems there is a similar reward for doing all achievements too (Which I have not attempted yet)

45 minute presentation for Terry Bogard tomorrow

Thanks, I appreciate it you taking the time to do that. I happened to finish the game a couple hours back and now I'm going to hunt down the Boo's and Gems. This game has so much charm to it. I've found myself genuinely laughing at some of the cut scenes, which rarely happens with video games for me. I can't say there is much I dislike about single player mode at all. I guess a minor thing is that I noticed the floors get smaller the further along you progress through the game. For example Floor 14 is basically a corridor lead leading to a boss fight, as opposed to the floor with all the magic stuff in it or the film set one. But it was a still a great level and I noticed Luigi is clicking his fingers along with the beat during the battle, which is just brilliant. My reaction to only seeing this now that I've finished the game:

Quick question for @Hero-of-Time as you’ve finished the game. Can you still explore the mansion after completing the game or does the game lock you out? I don’t want to miss anything lol

That would have been great. They could have let you use these costumes in online multiplayer.

Yes, just finished this stage and completely agree with you. Most fun boss fight so far. I also like the vibe to the stage leading to the fight. One cool thing/secret I just found out about an earlier stage... And one last thing:

Congrats everyone, that was great

Sorry guys to have to drop out

@Hero of Time theres a room open now if you want to join

I think glen lost his connection he’s offline now I’ll make a room

@Glen-i had the room open for a while and no one joined apart from myself so we went ahead

Hey sure, I’ve got giantbombs live stream running to keep me company while we wait

wow nice work @Glen-i

I’m in the lobby for anyone that wants it, My FC is 7441-4734-3710 Username is Ego

@Glen-i I should be able to join you guys at 9

yes, I've gone through this so many times now I can't get frustrated at it anymore and just accept that the current run is over lol. Another thing has been when the game asks us to collect as much money as possible (as opposed to catching all the ghosts of the floor) but it seems other players do not realize the objective has changed and continue to focus on capturing ghosts rather then collecting cash they leave on the ground. Furthest I've made it so far is floor 3 because I was very lucky and got another player who knew what they were doing. But I guess it's early days, chances are the average player will be better as the weeks go on. It should be good to play this mode with some people from here.

I love the facial expressions and animations they have Luigi doing in this game, it's so well done and works really well with whats going on around him Has anyone been playing online mode at all? I'm a little disapointed that its not a great deal different from the previous game, just with some minor improvements but I'm still enjoying it. I'm finding it pretty hard to get a full team set up though , not because there aren't many people playing but because no one wants to wait in a lobby long enough for it to fill to 4 players. Had this funny little moment happen online today:

The two seasons of Telltale’s Batman game are on sale for £6.24 each. I noticed the original price for these games has been knocked down considerably from from they used to be, which was £39.99 for each one. It’s now £12.49.

I still remember the day I bought mine, it was the first time I went and bought a console myself rather then my parents buying it. I left my house early, went to Gamestation to buy the console, i wanted to then buy a game with it but they sold out of copies of Sonic Adventure. So I went over to Virgin Megastore and bought it there, but found out they were sold out of VMU/memory cards, so I had to go to GAME (called Electronic boutique in those days). All of this on a cold morning in Croydon, but it was worth it lol

First 4 figures are releasing a statue to go along with the release of this game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8E5TxOyChQ

Out of curiosity, those who have lag/connection issues, are you using the built in WiFi on the switch or a wired connection with one of those USB dongles? The reason I ask is because back when I first got my switch, Splatoon 2 was ridiculous to play. As much as this might sound like an overeaction, it actually felt unplayable at times. It was incredibly laggy and constantly disconnecting me. It made no sense because my router was in the same room as my Switch and I had used my Wii U in that room for the previous 4 years without any issues. I picked up a USB network adapters and it made a HUGE difference when it came to playing online and playing Splatoon 2 now is pretty much flawless for me although that is the only online game I own, I've not played stuff like Smash brothers or Mario Maker 2

10 million Switch consoles sold in Europe. Insane but well deserved

Yeah it was excellent, honestly I wish Sega had stepped in and released it officially it was that good. It's like a mixture between a love letter to the originals while adding enough to it to make it even better. A lot like how Sonic Mania is to the original 2D Sonic games.
