Deffo, cheers pal.

Only had time for a brief blast, but like it so far and graphics are very nice.

Bit worried I might get fed up if too much back tracking but will see. I got a bit lost with Ori in the end and gave up.
 
My switch was delivered on the weekend.

Currently don't own a single game, though am away atm.

What's worth playing? I know people that own zelda breath of wild so will be borrowing that (the main reason I bought a switch tbh)

Not sure what the situation is now but 3rd party docks/dongles had bricking issues. I got a second dock then reshelled it to this, made it far more portable to carry around.

That’s my worry. Risking bricking it is not worth it. With the dock internals being different on the OLED making my own may be a little trickier, although I have access to 3D printers.

See you in six months, then we can talk about other games.

Seriously though the Switch library is fantastically vast, what games are you into? Roguelikes and Metroidvania's are aplenty.
 
FYI - if your local has stock, Tesco currently doing Metroid AND White Switch OLED for £329 as a bundle. (£20 off)

Can't knock that seeing as the game is at least £35 everywhere else. If you have discount there, even better. I have a family member with discount who was willing to grab for me; so have to admit I bit at the discounted price; under £300 for Switch and game.

Much as I wasn't originally planning to upgrade; I have now seen so many positive reports on the new model; that as money was not really an issue, I couldn't resist the upgrades for essentially the price of a standard Switch, given I was 100% buying Metroid anyway in the coming days.

Screen Protectors for the wife's just turned up this afternoon; so we're going to unbox them in the next couple of days when we're not short on time/having to rush and transfer everything/copy the microSD card etc.

The improvements to the handheld experience may well make me more more inclined to play it that way rather than docked too.

My favourite switch games so far are:
Zelda BOTW
Zelda Link's Awakening
Super Mario Oddysey
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
 
I've not played a Mario game before but must admit that Odyssey has been one of my favourite games that I've played on the Switch, by far.

Mine arrived yesterday from there. Finally my Switch will get some bloody use. Had a quick go and very impressed with the game. Wish Nintendo would let more third party developers use their IP.

Would love to see a new Punch Out and F-Zero games.
 
With the success of the THPS remake I do wonder whether we'll see a resurgence in snowboarding games. Surely 1080 is going to get added to the Switch Online list of N64 games if it's not already there.
 
Switch Online + Exp Pack price announced.

£34.99 for 12 months. Doesn't look like they have an monthly payment option for the Exp Pack . Coming 26th October.
