  1. I was thinking exactly the same thing. As an optional thing it would be great. But having it as the only way and then having all of these other issues with the app makes the whole thing seem terrible. It is ridiculous that you cannot send a message to someone on your friends list within the Switch it self for a simple invite to play something.
  2. Not being able to send someone a message through the console itself seems baffling to me. It's kind of a basic feature that even the Wii U has. I should be able to see my friends list, see who's online and then send someone a message asking if they want a game of Splatoon/Mario Kart or whatever. I really don't understand why something like that isn't on the console when they already have two online games out. Hopefully it'll come in a future firmware update and not be something on their app.
  3. reviews should start coming in from now
  4. By coincidence I was thinking about this today and was having similar thoughts to @nekunando. The more I think about it, it was a knee-jerk purchase that I really don't need. Of the 21 games on this device that i like, I still have them on my SNES or I have them on Wii or Wii U virtual console, so I have access to a lot of these titles already. In most cases I have played them faily recently too. So really this boils down to being able to play Star Fox 2 for £80 lol. All that said, I think if they had a few more games on it like Mario All-Stars and Chrono Trigger, i would probably not be having second thoughts.
  5. Team Ice Cream Wins:
  6. I played for the entire length of the Splatfest and made it to King It's taking some getting use to with the Switch's analog sticks, because I am so used to the Wii U gamepad. A few other grumbles, I feel like i ran out of Ink very quickly compared to the first game and it took longer to refill, but I'm guessing that's because the gear we were all using didn't have any ability's to improve that stuff. Other then that I enjoyed it, but probably didn't have as much fun as I did in the first game.
  7. I enjoyed Retro City Ransom so I'll probably pick this up
  8. I 'd like everything from the first game makes it over to Splatoon 2. Maps, weapons and gear etc
  9. Pretty cool its coming to Switch although I can't say I've enjoyed any games from that series since Smackdown vs Raw 2006. WWE All Stars on the other hand, was probably the best wrestling game with the WWE licence in the past decade. I'd love a sequel to that to happen one day.
  10. Yeah, i knew about the different screens and why a Wii U stylus doesn't work on the switch's screen or a smartphone screen etc. I'd forgotten that they made pens for devices with capacitive screens though and chances are I'll get one of those too if i can find a good one that works on the switch without scratching the screen. I say that because the Switch's screen is plastic and not glass like a smartphone or an ipad, so it could possibly be more prone to scratching then using it on one of those devices.
  11. ah yeah, I didn't think of that. That would be pretty cool if those pens work without messing up the screen
  12. no idea how people are drawing this well with their fingers:
  13. Some new direct feed footage
  14. Well that's disappointing. Even the Wii U allowed you to send messages to friends. I hope they add a way to send text messages through the switch's menu in the future, just so you can send a simple message asking if someone wants to play Mario Kart or whatever. And while I'm thinking of things I'd like added to the Switch, I'd also like to be able to upload screenshots I'd to imgur. Right now the options are for Twitter and Facebook, I don't have a facebook account and I don't really want to flood my twitter account with screenshots tbh
  15. Can you send messages to people on your friend list? I added one person to mine and he was online last night but I didn't see anywhere that I could send him a quick text or anything.
  16. You can download the testfire right now, but obviously because the Splatfest isn't live you can't play it, but you can create a character, walk around the town and draw messages and stuff. I have to admit, I am finding the controls strange because I was so used to the Wii U gamepad with its analog stick above the buttons. The game looks very nice though
  17. Yeah I'm not a fan of that. It really should be in the game normally. I'm also unsure why Salmon run's can only be done at certain times
  18. Demo out on the 15th and it looks like it'll house a Splatfest (Cake vs Icecream)
  19. Platinum games tweeted this image:
  20. I really enjoyed GLOW, its probably my favorite Netlfix original show so far. I wasn't even aware it was based on a real federation until after I watched through the whole series. There's a documentary about the real show on Netflix as well
  21. Enjoyed last nights episode a lot, especially the Doctors speech to Missy and the Master: "Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone or because I hate someone or because I want to blame someone. It's not because its fun. God knows its not because its easy. It's not even because it works because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because its right! Because it decent. And above all its Kind. Its just that... Just kind" and him fighting against regenerating at the end and the original Doctor showing up was great too. I can't wait for the Christmas special.
  22. Yeah this is a great way of putting it and is why I ordered a snes mini. I can see myself actually playing through most of the games on the list, if not all of them. My only gripe is that we can't add more games to the list with some kind of basic access to a snes game only eshop. Also, i could have done with Mario all Stars and Chrono Trigger on the thing
  23. Snake pass is also 40% off right now. By chance had just purchased it in the Steam sale though, otherwise I would have bought it.
  24. Jeez yeah, its sold out pretty much everywhere already. I pre-ordered mine from Amazon as soon as I saw the link here but that's nuts
