Pokemon Sword/Shield or Shining Pearl/Brilliant Diamond? Seems like Sword/Shield are more progressive than the new one?

Yep yep I'd go Sword and Shield

I believe Mario Party Superstars is the one you want (don't get Super Mario Party)

Thanks.

Anyone wanna trade Metroid Dread ? I have a new sealed copy, but probably not gonna be any good to my kid, looking for a mario party game or Zelda

I've wanted a Switch for ages. I was going to get the OLED model, but the more I think about it, the more I think about the Switch Lite. I'm not sure I'll want to play on a TV all that much, but then again, I'm not sure I want to lose the feature entirely. I want some games to play, though, so I'd like to put an order in pretty quickly.

What would you do?

You have to do that in the For Sale / Wanted forums

I went for a Lite a few years ago, no regrets at all.

I think I might go that route. It seems the most sensible option from a money point of view. Thank you.

Yeah true, just putting the feelers out

Just starting to get used to Metroid Dread now. It was very difficult starting out.

Paper Mario on the N64 emulator is awesome!

It’s so much better than the latest Switch iteration, which is a steaming turd of a game.

Argh. I changed my mind again. I might as well get the OLED. I mean, you only get to see the upgraded display if you are playing in handheld mode, so it'll be a nice upgrade on that front, and I'll be getting a TV at some point soon, so I'll go with that plan.

Recently got the oled and it's looks wise loads better.

Picked up Bomberman R and Starlink in the sale. Really good prices on those.

I've lost the charger lead to my pro controller.
What kind of lead do I need?

b0rn2sk8 · 19 Dec 2021 at 18:06

Just a normal A>C cable if connecting to the dock or a USB A charger or a C > C cable if going to a USB C charger.

Avoid cheap (**** quality) cables and buy a good quality one from Anker or someone else.

Still on with Metroid Dread. Ha I am rubbish the bosses take some retries for me to down them! Love it though.

Just seen an article on Nintendo Life saying Saint Row 4 is 93% off on the Nintendo Switch store, so only £2.44 for a comedy style GTA type game that was released at £40 in 2020, I might pick it up even though have on PC.

Yep that's an absolute steal!

Today bought a Nintendo Switch for £230 from a major grocery store (A) and a Ring Fit for £40 and Super Mario Odyssey for £35 from another major grocery store (T) - super chuffed for my *ahem* 8yr old boy! Can’t wait for Xmas day.

Do I need to open / turn on to create Nintendo game store account so that I can buy games from the store? Some great deals on there!
