Dufniall Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Announced in the Direct Mini last March, the game is coming to the Switch on June 5. It's time for a topic as the game looks to have quite some substance to it, people are hyped for it, and it has some online features so we can soon be playing Tank Wars online! Plus, a Japanese trailer popped up showing all the different games there are to play. It's cool to see Wii Play games like Tank Wars and the balloon shooting game make a return! Plus Wii Sports style bowling! I think I need to pre-order this as it will undoubtedly suffer from shortages at launch. Announcement trailer: Japanese showcasing trailer: 2
Nicktendo Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I was dismissive of this initially but after seeing today's trailer, I'm super hyped. Seems like they have added some content similar to Wii Sports and Wii Play, which I am extremely down for. Hope the price is not £50
Dufniall Posted April 28, 2020 Author Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) It's €39,99 on most retailers here in the Netherlands. ShopTo has if for 30 pounds (~€35) and the pre-order comes with a pen and notebook: https://www.shopto.net/en/swwo53-51-worldwide-games-p194847/ Never ordered from them though but they do ship to the Netherlands. Edit: eShop price is €39,99 as well Edited April 28, 2020 by Vileplume2000 1
Ronnie Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 This looks loads of fun, it'll probably sell plenty too.
Londragon Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Preordered two weeks ago, and that new Japanese showcase trailer has just hit my hype levels through the roof. Nintendo bringing the goods. 2
martinist Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 Was going to buy this off of shopto but it was the same price digitaly. So I downloaded it along with Xenoblade. I also wanted to play ludo again...along with a few others. 1
Londragon Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 Let’s get some online games going when it releases. 1
Londragon Posted May 18, 2020 Posted May 18, 2020 The extended trailer, showing all 51 games in more depth, has received an English translation. 2 1
Cube Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 A look at the bowling. It seems well made, but completely ruined by being limited to 2 players.
nekunando Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 With 51 Worldwide Games out today, I'm surprised to see no activity in this thread Is anybody playing this?

Ashley Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 For those that do have it can you let me know if it would be suitable for kids aged...I wanna say 5 and 9? Something like that. Both in terms of difficulty level but also 'can they play this together without killing each other?' 😋 Thinking of ordering it for my friend's kids.

There’s such a great variety of different games, only played on the touch screen, but each game requires a minimal of learning that kids pick up easy.If they only have one Switch between them, it limits the amount of games, but he arcade action sport games are fun for quick plays. Plus if it teaches them chess, bonus.I bought it for me and my son to play together, he’s 13, but I would have got it regardless of his age. Fun package for a quick blast every now and then. 1

They do only have one Switch. Are the games tabletop with a Joy-Con each then?
Londragon Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 Oh you can't play it on TV? They do only have one Switch. Are the games tabletop with a Joy-Con each then?Yes, you can play on TV. Either using a single JoyCon each, or in handheld, both using touchscreen. Some games favour one method over another, but what I’ve seen so far, is that all games can be played both handheld and docked. Some card games, mahjong, dominoes, though don’t work in 2 player on one Switch, regardless of TV or not, as your opponent would see your hand. 2
Dcubed Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Just got it. It’s awesome!!! So brilliant to finally get a sequel to this long forgotten DS classic! Just unlocked the Club Nintendo Hanafuda card designs; badass! Never thought that they’d bring them back! My only real complaint so far is that the music is a bit lame so far. It lacks the energy and excitement of the original and is far too chill. Calling Koi Koi should be a HYPE moment, instead it’s a barely audible blip sadly. Otherwise it’s fantastic though! I’ve only really just scratched the surface so far and have a LOT more to try out, but I already love it! THIS is the kind of game I want to see on Switch! Edited June 10, 2020 by Dcubed 1 1
Dcubed Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 YES!!!!!!!!! I'VE FINALLY DONE IT!!!!!! I've finally figured out how to play Riichi Mahjong!!!!!!!!! 1 2

Well done. Someone on Resetera actually made a really helpful beginner's guide in response to the release of 51WWG. That was a huge help; it might be worth a read if you fancy giving it a go. It's actually a lot of fun once you wrap your head around it (Which even 51WWG acknowledges in its description! I love how the game actually plays up how complicated it is to learn ) Edited June 11, 2020 by Dcubed 1
Dcubed Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 Yeah... getting the Ludo medal is NOT fun... Fuck Ludo. 1 1
drahkon Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 Are there games you can play on one device/in docked mode? Obviously for games which rely on the opponent to not see your cards/stuff that's impossible. But what about games like Yahtzee?
