Andrew 4747 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Finished Golf Story this weekend, its an excellent little game and well worth its pricetag. Â Clocked overall in about 13 hours for me. I've got Zelda on the roll, though I'll tackle that slowly this time as I have already played it before and I bought Mario Odyssey last night which will be my main timesink for a bit now I reckon.

Rayvin 5217 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Lemme know what you think of Mario then, I haven't tried that. I prefer the Super Mario Bros. style games they release to the blockbuster Mario title they release every few years, but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4747 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Mario is excellent but my times a little limited lately so I've been defaulting to Zelda since I can duck in and out and keep up with it.  Zelda btw, god its good. If you have a Switch or a Wii U and haven't played it you must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4747 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Nintendo Event last night where a handful of new Pokemon games were announced.  Lets Go Pikachu/Eevee are the closest to a "main" Pokemon game being announced on a non-handheld (as in pure handheld) Nintendo console ever which implies to an extent that they may be abandoning that market now that the switch has proven you can do both in one machine.

Rayvin 5217 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Makes total sense for them to go that way. Nintendo will never compete for power with PS and X Box, so they may as well clean up with the most overpowered handheld they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â power hasn't been Nintendos wheelhouse for decades(if it ever really was), its all about design and IP exclusivity. Â Nintendo could release a brick, if it could play pokemon it would sell. Â Pokemon Quest is an odd looking little thing and is free to play now so I'll be having a look at that when I get home. Â I will also, undoubtedly, play the hell out of Lets Go when its out.

Andrew 4747 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Can't argue with any of those. Â Golf Story is fun and not a lot of money, Stardew Valley is a total time sink. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 4247 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Cheers lads. Got the full FM on my laptop and bored of it already tbh. Â will get mario, is mario kart any good or just a rehash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4747 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Its a redone version of the Wii U one but its a lot better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5217 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 It's better but if you played the wii u one then don't bother IMO. Not enough difference and I've barely touched it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4747 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 The new mario party is excellent! A proper return to the good versions after 2 or 3 really shit ones. Â Â 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4747 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nope, no browser, no youtube. Youtube will probably come at some point but thats stuffs just not what its for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5217 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 It's not a touch screen thing anyway so would be awkward for a browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13856 Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 It actually is a touch screen, it's just talked about and used so rarely that people assume it isn't  Also, I could well live without Netflix/Youtube/Browsers etc. in the Switch since the UI is lightning fast and I want it to stay that way.

Ayatollah Hermione 13856 Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Also, I'm not sure how far it is along, and I think Nintendo might have had a work-around in the newer Switch hardware, but the homebrew/modding scene is rife and a piece of piss to sort out so there's every chance there's homebrew browser apps you can install, though you run the risk of getting a banned account.

Dr Gloom 21911 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Getting one for my boy’s birthday. Definitely just for him. Not that I want one. Thinking of getting Mario Kart, Mario Odyssey and either Fifa or smash bros. Good shout to start off with or should I be looking at Zelda or Mario Party instead? Or something else?

Andrew 4747 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Zelda is one of the best games I've ever played, preferred it to Mario Odyssey (though they are different they're definitely the big titles) by a long way. Â Can't really go wrong with MK, its a safe bet. Â Smash is brilliant but not necessarily as a solo experience, same for Mario Party, they're definitely games whose best comes with multiplayer. Â Fifa is as it has always been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
