V. Amoleo

It took me a while to decide on a colour. Black is my colour but the white and orange is really snazzy. Even seeing them both on this page is making me think I maybe should have gone for the other.

I really like the way it's packaged. Glad we're past the time of wasting resources by making oversized packaging.

Thanks for the suggestions! At the minute I'm self hosting but I don't want to do that long term.

I wish I didn't like amiibo so much The sculpts and paint jobs are so good though! These all arrived today. Much prefer the use of clear plastic as supports rather than the horrible colours they used to use.

Every so often I'm getting an issue where buttons just aren't clickable. This includes the quick reply at the bottom of threads, clicking into it doesn't actually let me type. It's raising null errors in the JavaScript console.

Available on the Nintendo Official Store for £35. Weirdly this is currently the lowest price and it includes the Monster Hero Set DLC.

Editions up at GAME now. Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Dual Edition £90 Pokemon Ultra Sun Fan Edition £50 (@Glen-i) Pokemon Ultra Moon Fan Edition £50 Pricey but they don't seem to be exclusive to GAME so we can hope they'll be available cheaper elsewhere. Just going to take this opportunity to remind you that the games by themselves are available at Base for £32 each. Pokemon Ultra Sun £32 Pokemon Ultra Moon £32

I finally got around to buying Star Trek Bridge Crew. I bought it on PSVR because it was cheaper than Steam. It's a very bare bones game but you can't beat the feeling of captaining a starship. I've only been playing it with AI and everything works nice and smoothly. Impressed by the recently added Watson voice commands. The crew seemed to pick up everything I was saying accurately. I might even go as far to say it's the most accurate voice interaction I've come across, Alexa included. I'm still having issues with tracking on the PSVR. The console I'm sitting at in the game seems to drift around whenever I move my head, it starts to become really disorientating after a while. I was sitting in complete darkness to play it today in attempt to stop it from happening, didn't work though.

Now I'm not sure which to get to go with the Sun Moon steelbooks that I have, if I even get chance to get any considering how limited stock has been for Nintendo things recently.

Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters has been announced for Autumn. Not sure what this has different to the previous two games.

So are we getting three different steelbooks for this? Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon and Ultra Dual?

Thanks so much for the heads up! I was at work so I couldn't reply but got the notification so I was able to get on and preorder it (and the two amiibos!).

I hope this isn't a Game exclusive. I was unable to actually buy it earlier today despite it saying in stock.

Starting to feel like the Switch isn't for those of us who actually bought and supported the Wii U. I wouldn't mind the ports if they weren't taking up slots in the release schedule, but they are so it means that we have to wait longer between game releases. Plus it'd take a bit of the sting away if they weren't priced the same as new games. Even so, I completely understand why Nintendo would want to be republishing the Platinum games. They're very good.

That's probably because it's not a great deal. Hey! Pikmin £28 Pikmin amiibo £13 and it keeps going in and out of stock at Amazon for £11. Total = £41

I managed to get an order in at Argos. I'm not 100% convinced they'll fulfil it, even if they have already taken the money, as I think they might have over sold it. So I'm still looking for elsewhere to order from. I'd be a little surprised to see an N64 next year. The N64 is still quite awkward to emulate and I'm guessing that the SNES mini is actually identical in terms of specs to the NES mini but running a different emulator. Plus, if they follow the same pattern as the NES and SNES, they wouldn't be able to make a N64 controller which had rumble using the Wii expansion port.

Their site has died.

Amazon apparently had more stock in at 4:15pm but they went very fast.

I missed it again 😭

Found this image today: They look like Wii connectors to me, so that's great. It's of the Japanese one but I assume it's going to be the same for us. I'm still gutted I missed out on preorders. 😭

I think I've missed it.

Looks like the controllers aren't Wii controllers. If the picture is an actual model it could be shrunk down SNES pad size.

So excited! I need a UK and a US one. The SNES is my favourite console of all time.

Tried toggling aeroplane mode on and off?

Ah completely missed that. I won't be able to make it. Have fun!
