Hopefully my Zelda Link's awakening is coming today! I have played the original on the Gameboy and looking forward for the remake! I was between this and Astral Chain, but i decided to go zelda first because of nostalgia.

Is astral chain good or should i skip it? If it was ps4 or xbox i would wait till they drop in price but with Nintendo i don't see the price dropping by much if not it might go up, looking at you Octopath traveler grrrr...

30-40 hour game Astral Chain, I really enjoyed it as I am a fan of the type of gameplay(DMC, Bayonetta). Certainly worth waiting if it will drop in price, the story is pretty straight forwarded but entertaining.

I'm pretty far in to Astral Chain (file 08) and I am enjoying it a lot. Loving the story and the action is pretty great too. Some amazing set pieces.

Started Luigi's mansion 3 last night. Seems fine, its Luigi's mansion in a new setting with really nice clean Nintendo style visuals and attention to detail. Hope to play more this evening

I've just started playing cosmic star heroine. I'm loving the SNES RPG vibe, and particularly the music and aesthetics.

I bought it on sale on the switch for £3.29 recently: https://www.dekudeals.com/items/cosmic-star-heroine

I'd wait for it to go on sale again.

Due to get my copy at Crimbo, could I ask how your playing this? I still watch videos and I can't see it being comfy to use joy con's so wondered if you were and if so how is it?

100% in handheld. Controlling your Legion with the right stick takes some getting used to but once you get it it's fine.

I'm enjoying it so far, about 2 hours in! Lovely level of polish to everything, and lots of attention to detail in the rooms etc. If you liked previous entries, you cant go far wrong here.

ONly real issue is it's too easy - it's difficulty is aimed at young children

True actually, same went for the original. It's certainly quite relaxed. Might get Yooka Laylee to give a challenge after this

might be my next game then
