Did I mention that I'm terrible at the game? Because I am.

This is probably still my greatest Rocket League achievement:

And I'm not sure how much of that I planned, probably not much.

With saves like that, we can finally replace @Kaepora_Gaebora

Get involved!

Man! I was kinda rusty, getting used to the Switch controls was also a bitch, also getting master and expert players against low ranked opposition, great matchmaking Psyonix!

On topic, I got a little carried away, must have spent around £50 on Rocket League, Shantae -1/2 Genie Hero- and Azure Striker Gunvolt - Striker pack.

Just wanted to say that Blossom Tales is fantastic! It's a really good Zelda-like that has some pretty neat ideas, fun dialogue and does a great job of capturing the REAL Zelda style of gameplay that BOTW was sorely lacking!

Ended up nabbing Rocket League.

It’s an impressive port but definitely a pretty big downgrade from the PS4 version I’m used to. The physics occasionally go a bit mental too, but other than that it’s still lots of fun. And on the plus side I can finally play this game without the accompanying sound of PS4 fans going completely crazy.

Looks like I’ve got a lot of catching up to do though.

Does anyone know what happened to Double Dragon?  It's still in my watch list, but not possible to buy.

Didn't know Max and the Curse of the Brotherhood was out for Switch?

Really good game. Played it on my Xbox One when it was released. Highly recommended.

Don’t know until Nintendo put out their press release. If not, it may give more credence to the January 11th Direct rumours. Hopefully, January sales will be a thing either way.

Definitely interested in this but really what is the difference between what it was and this new 'Enhanced Edition'?  I've had a scout around and it seems like it's added all the post-release content from the other consoles, but there's very little details on if anything else has been tweaked.

[Clownferret]

just had another little splurge on the eshop. Whilst there are so many great little gems on there now it's becoming quite infuriating at the lack of Nintendo games. They've got to sort this mess out. If ACA can recreate so many neogeo classics to run on Switch then it's embarrassing that Nintendo can't seem to replicate this function with it's own software.

You men’s their old games? Well of course they can, clearly just a case of when. Presume they’re deciding exactly how to give them us. Individually? Netflix style service? Any new features they want to implement etc.

I can't comment on the differences, but I've just picked it up and it's good. Frustrating when your not landing your dunks steals etc but so so good once you get used to the controls and timings. I played for a couple of hours last night and i'm not great by any means, but i made significant improvements in a short time and had a lot of fun.
