Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) NintendoLife made a list with 85 great games in the sale. https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/85-must-have-games-you-should-pick-up-in-the-switch-eshop-sale-europe Except that they missed Scott Pilgrim at 67 % discount and Gris at 75 %.

I personally would've included the other Final Fantasy games as well, instead of just mentioning FFX. ... Anyway, what I bought was Resident Evil Mercenaries on the 3DS for 0,99€. And my other purchase might be the DIsney Afternoon Collection on Steam (4,99€), because I don't feel like spending that much. I must admit, this year's Golden Week has many tempting discounts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lure us in with Sonic then sidestep to Billy Hatcher, eh. 21 hours ago, S.C.G said: There's a new guessing game this week... "Guess the Videogame Character" Guess which videogame character the cropped image in the article is from. Probably from Sonic R or something but I'll guess that it's... a character from Dual Heroes.

Posted June 10, 2022 Is Panzer Dragoon worth getting for £2.24? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 10, 2022 6 minutes ago, Ike said: Is Panzer Dragoon worth getting for £2.24? I can't speak for the Switch version but I played the PS4 version of the game and it was fine. I know when the game launched it had many issues with it but post release patches apparently made the Switch version much more stable. Worth a punt for a couple of quid but just remember the game is only an hour or so long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 10, 2022 1 hour ago, Ike said: Is Panzer Dragoon worth getting for £2.24? I've been wondering about it too this past week. Can you go ahead and take a punt on it as H-o-T suggests and report back? 1 hour ago, MindFreak said: Super Sale just started. I started looking through this yesterday. Once you filter out the garbage, there seems to be some decent reductions. Anything catching your eye? I might get around to nabbing the Contra Collection this time.

Posted June 10, 2022 6 hours ago, Ike said: Is Panzer Dragoon worth getting for £2.24? If you've never played the original, or don't have access to the original game, then yes. If you've played the original and still have access to the original game, I'd say stick with that. The remake is playable, it's just not the same as the original, the soundtrack is still great though, so for £2.24 it's still worth picking up if you want to play it on the Switch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could be what it was. Last weekend I moved heaven and earth to clear the ~10GB required for Resident Evil so another 8 or 9 wasn't happening.

Posted June 13, 2022 Caved and bought Kaze and the Wild Masks at a 66 % discount. It should be a good 2D platformer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought the game you were referring to was Jet Kave Adventure so good job I looked that up first. Let us know what you think of Kaze. Is there a demo for it?

It's clearly an homage to the old DKC games, although speedruns don't seem that interesting. There is no move to speed up Kaze and make him or her go further when jumping. But each stage has four letters to collect and two bonus levels. Each island has a hard level unlocked by clearing all bonus levels, and each island has a boss. Sounds familiar? It plays well, it's always my own fault when I die. That's probably the most important criteria for a 2D platformer. I'm not that far into it, though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
