I mean, it's backwards compatible... 👀

The only specs that matters: (Based on leaked/rumoured specs)

Battery life: 7 minutes?

Maybe. They should still work wireless. The second USB-C possibly also be used to connect to a TV for image out?

Was trying to think why it wouldn't, totally forgot about the obvious reason, the ring. They could go down the Apple route and sell adaptors I suppose. Do the new JoyCons have the IR sensors still. Bit hard to tell in that video?

Curious what games aren't backwards compatible. The Labo games?

New. Guess I was wrong about them not doing MK9 yet. Glad the coloured accents were real.

Mario Kart 9 feels too early with them just having released the DLC for 8 Deluxe, but who knows with Nintendo.

In addition to Pokémon Legends, there's Metroid Prime 4. The last (Nintendo published) game with a release date is March with Xenoblade Chronicles X so they need to make an announcement soon. They are probably pushing it a bit for a March release now (although the anniversary of the Switch presentation was a couple of days ago). Probably looking at a April+ release if they want to avoid a dry spell.

Only if everyone else agrees. I don't want to force people to play my way. I'm fine with leaving it the way it is.

There's no way that hit when you where at the top of the screen. I honestly think matches would be better without the Smash Meter, sometimes it just comes own to whose fills first when it's the end of the match.

Ah, the ninjas got 'em.

This looks nice, which probably means it's not real. I like the colour accents though.

The Deku Scrubs in this version are so cute. Anyone who disagrees is a... Bumpkin!

I'm hoping for a new collection/upgraded versions as well. The fact Limited Run Games started selling Virtual Fighter kind of killed my excitement, I'm praying this isn't the future of the games that got pulled.

Wish I knew about this earlier, didn't find out until the Kickstarter thing ended. Will they do another run/general release? I really want the trap. I got the Lego Ecto-1 though!

The 8-Bitdo Analogue 64 controller is up on Amazon UK in case anyone wants one. Says it's compatible with Switch & Windows in the listing... https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0DK6TR997

Spent most of Friday grinding. Took everyone through Monster Wrangler for Wild Side and Pile-On. Changed my Martial Artist back to Thief. One Sage went to Merchant > Warrior, the other Gadabout > back to Sage. Hero was level 82 by the time I finished. Boy Gadabout class sucks. Such a liability, thought they might improve at higher levels. NOPE. And they take longer to level up. The Hero was leveling up quicker. Also got the Duplic Hat for my Sage which lets them cast spells twice. Coupled with Wild Side letting cast 4 times in a single round! With Channel Anger that's almost 2k of damage. Had a much easier time with the dungeon. Took me like 30 minutes or something to take out a single King Hydra before, now it takes... a few minutes. Wow they have a lot of HP. They also showed up a lot with Liquid Metal Slimes so pretty easy to get just under 35k extra EXP.

They really said

"A group of Liquid Metal Slimes draws near!" "They don't notice your party's presence" A nice 34k out of that encounter.

I should be able to play.

Was worried it wouldn't be good. I was very wrong - it was perfect!

Jeez, already getting wrecked in the ??? area.
