Andrew 4777 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Best to leave it that way imo, there are very few games I go back to from that early 3D era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said you can probably pick up a Wii u for a tenner these days. If Bomberman didn't have such disappointing ratings I'd just get a Switch now but I can always buy one in 6 months if they allow the games I mentioned to be downloaded digitally or ported. 4 hours ago, Andrew said: That's definitely a mistake. I'm defo still in decision mode and easily talked in/out of it. Keep in mind I'm only interested in this for local multiplayer with the girlfriend preferably with the games mentioned above (but obviously if there are games of a similar ilk that's fine too).

Rayvin 5236 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I think it's a solid console tbh. Needs more games but aside from that I'm very happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13909 Posted December 8, 2017 Author Share Posted December 8, 2017 I'm actually surprised at the 3rd party support, considering how barren the WiiU was. You could have bought a Switch at release and had one very good downloadable title bought per week. Granted, it's lagging behind the PS4 and Xbox One due to its release date but you have the heavy hitters like Rocket League and Stardew Valley and the latter is at a better advantage since that's the perfect portable game. Also, Ocarina of Time is still fine but knowing that game inside out helps it a lot; I can't imagine playing it with fresh eyes and trying to traverse around. Star Fox 64 still holds up as a shit hot game though. I imagine the Virtual Console will get filled out but knowing Nintendo, they'll make it so your past purchases don't cross over and yes, I will buy Star Fox 64 despite being able to emulate it easily.

Rayvin 5236 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Rocket League is going fully cross platform in Feb so if anyone gets it on Switch, lemme know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13909 Posted December 13, 2017 Author Share Posted December 13, 2017 How many of these shrines involve the motion controls because good fuck, they are the most unintuitive I've ever handled in my life. That's using the controller grip and the tablet itself. Which way is up? That's literally all it has to tell me but I can do the same thing twice and have two different results.

Rayvin 5236 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 From memory, it might be relative to the starting position of whatever you're rotating. Sometimes I had to 360 the whole tablet around to get the desired result. I did think it made sense, but it was almost too much for the human mind to handle at times. Anyway, I think less than 10.

Ayatollah Hermione 13909 Posted December 13, 2017 Author Share Posted December 13, 2017 Turns out the "trick" to this one is to FLIP THE MAZE UPSIDE DOWN and ping the ball about until it randomly lands where it needs to. That's not the official solution, it's just some way that people have got around it. Did they let the glue sniffers design this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 4295 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I’m desperate to play the latest Zelda, do the other games make it worthwhile getting a switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4777 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 By now I’d say so. Though it is also available on the wii u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5236 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 It has Rocket League. Seriously, I know I harp on about this game all the time but if you don't have it on another format you'll get plenty of enjoyment out of it. Also Skyrim if you didn't play that first time around.

strawb 4295 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I will have a look at getting one soon I think. I fancy that splatoon game as well. This Zelda is the only one I’ve never played. I finished Skyrim on the PC first time round, and not really interested in rocket league, sorry rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13909 Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Everyone who is decent at Rocket League has been playing it for 3 year, you'll get your arse bashed. All of the Nintendo titles have been good standard so far, as far as I can tell. Just dipping into Mario now and finding that absolutely fantastic, as expected.

If you didn't have a Wii U there is also Mario Kart - but it's a rehash so only worth the money if you didn't have it previously. 10 hours ago, Ayatollah Hermione said: Everyone who is decent at Rocket League has been playing it for 3 year, you'll get your arse bashed.

I think the matchmaking in RL prevents you from "getting your arse bashed" - there's no way you should be up against people who have been playing for years. Unfortunately though, the low ranking communities are toxic as fuck, so idk how enjoyable it is down there anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was quite an experience! Finally got around to getting a new controller (XBone) so will be running drills again soon. I see that toxicity in poker too btw. Unbelievable what people say to each other when I sweat a friend at lower limits. There's defo an inverse correlation between shit talking and ability.

You did well in those games, although it was all defending from us. Intense shit. Nice anyway, they've added a few new cars and stuff this season. Classic Batmobile for one... And yeah idk what it is. Toxic players are intensely annoying in all games, even if they're on your team, and it definitely does happen further down the skill levels.

Andrew 4777 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Got one today, traded in my Wii U and some games and paid £106 for a boxed one at CEX. Playing Golf Story now, got Stardew Valley as well and will be getting Zelda off a mate to play again on Tuesday. YAAAAAAYYYY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
