Great job @RedShell I can hear the sound of Baby Face right now...

https://www.resetera.com/threads/puyo-puyo-tetris-almost-at-1-million-units-sold.21059/ Holy cow! PPT is almost at 1 million sales worldwide!? That’s insane!! I could never have imagined that it would do anything even close to that!! F’ing blinding!

I know this is random as hell, but I really hope that Nintendo are working on a new Star Fox for Switch! I loved SFZero to pieces and I just want more! It’s a real shame that they didn’t have time to add more on-rails levels and I really want to see them continue on from where it left off! The last few years have been amazing for Star Fox fans, with both SFZ and SF2 seeing release. I just hope that they don’t give up all the momentum the series currently has! Continue Fox’s comeback Nintendo! (And give us a story/new set of villains/new worlds that aren’t another retelling for SF/SF64! Just carry on with the story that you rebooted in SFZ!)

Surprised that you didn’t mention the Underground @Glen-i. It did kind of pave the way for the Entralink in Gen 5, as it had the same kind of live persistence gameplay (just in a more confined space and on a smaller scale). It was also loads of fun!

Finally started playing it! (I have a day off! Hooray!) Figured I’d kick things off by proving @Glen-i wrong... Edit: LOL! Turns out that skipping the first moon breaks the Broodle boss fight

So much for no new content! THEY LIED!!! BURN THEM!!!

Big update coming to the Switch version in Spring! https://www.rocketleague.com/news/rocket-league-roadmap-spring-2018/ Video Capture support is also coming in the Spring update too! And then there's the rest of the new features that are coming to all versions, including Switch... Not bad! Really impressive update! (and also really impressive to see that even the Performance Mode is set to come with a big improvement in visuals over the current Switch release!). Also, according to comments on Reset Era, shadows will be coming back to the handheld mode, even in Performance Mode! Hopefully I can find some time to play this with you guys. It's tons of fun!

So... Smash Bros Switch and Switch VC in September then? Fine by me!

Not terribly surprising. MK is one of Nintendo's biggest franchises, so a mobile adaptation was inevitable really. I wouldn't expect it to resemble a proper MK game, but I do expect it to build on the idea of Smart Steering that was introduced in MK8dx,

We’ve only just started, of course it’s not too late! (Plus with the way the scoring system works, you can actually join in at any time and be in with a chance of winning )

Oh man! I missed these so much! Brilliant vid! The shot with Nicktendo at the end of Royal Raceway was priceless! (Not to mention the end shot ) Anyway, I am actually gonna be IN! for tomorrow, amazingly enough!

Can’t be. It’s not available at retail, how would they have the numbers? It’s probably Super Bomberman R. It broke the 500k mark quite a while ago and it absolutely wouldn’t surprise me to hear that it crawled to a million.

Same. I’ve still got mine too. Was keen to give it a try. Alas though... (TBH I was actually shocked to see them actually bother to emulate the GBC’s IR port at all for Mystery Gift! No other prior GB/GBC VC game did it!)

Sadly not. Some people have tried it to no avail

I’m currently using the Yamaha RXV681 myself, alongside some Monitor Audio Vector speakers in a 5.1 setup (up to 9.1 Dolby Atmos is supported however). Absolutely love it! I’ve had a few in the Yamaha RXV/RV series and they’re consistently superb! Very very solid entry-mid level enthusiast line of AV Recievers, with a rich soundscape, full 4K/HDR support and they won’t break the bank either! (Amazon are currently doing the RXV683 for £399.99 for Prime members!)

Just got round to watching the MGS and SOTN runs this morning, at last. Hilarious! Highly recommended if you want to see some classic games get tremendously broken

Same here! It’s looking good next to the other two!

Holy sweet Jesus Christ! You guys did each other dirty! Love it! Awesome Video

Most of them are fairly small, like Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2 and ARMS; but it’s the few like DOOM and LA Noire that are eating up a huge chunk of space (I think I’ve used around 80GB so far IIRC). I can definitely see myself running out of space before the end of the year (maybe not even that long...)

It’s utterly ludicrous that MicroSD card prices have actually gone UP from last year! But with the supplies of flash storage improving and competitive offerings now coming from companies that are not called Samsung (like this new 512GB card) hopefully it means that prices should return to their natural downward trend again soon (it had better do... my current 200GB one isn’t gonna last too long at the current rate...)

https://shinesparkers.net/interviews/jack-mathews/ Really cool interview with Jack Mathews, a former Retro Studios developer, on his time developing Metroid Prime 1-3!

https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180122006328/en/UK's-Integral-Memory™-Market-Largest-Capacity-microSD™ The first 512GB MicroSD card hits store shelves in February! We're getting there guys!

Mystery Gift definitely works on the 3DS VC version, using the 3DS' IR port (and all 3DS models have that IR port). It doesn't work with actual GBC copies, but it does work between 3DS VC versions. So yeah, make sure it is unlocked in both copies and that you're lining the IR ports up properly.

That short skirt really is just ridiculous

This is so true! As anyone who has mass-sold stuff on eBay can tell you, the cost of cardboard boxes adds up shockingly quickly!
