Picked up Diablo II and III as I thought it was a really good price. Diablo II doesn't look as crispy on the OLED as I thought it would, but looks decent enough on the TV.

Just wish there was a tutorial on what everything does! Going to need to look up a guide to even just understand the game!

Hoping it's been all good and no issues. Let me know my dude!

Anyone getting Front mission Remake coming out on the 30th? Been tracking this game since it was announced, massive fan of the franchise until they ruined it with evolved.

Happy days and no worries at all just wanted to make sure it was behaving itself

I may have just got this one to play with I actually picked it up as a reference console to fix the one that was sent to me with a failed mod chip install:

I just picked up a switch in the black friday sales with Mario Kart 8 deluxe.

Aside from the Zelda games which will be an instant buy for me anyway, what other games are considered to be must haves ? I was toying with the idea of getting Mario 3D all stars to relive my uni nostalgia days of playing Mario 64 instead of writing essays on the mitochondrial ATP transport pathways !!! but I read you can get that as part of the online sub for switch now ?

I like shoot em ups like gradius, darius etc but I don't think they 2d shooters on the new consoles anymore ???

I have got the n64 sub which is included with a years sub. I have bought Mario Od and Breath of wild but chopping through Ocarina of time at the moment. I think this is 4th console I have played the game on! Just got to adult link and starting to remember everything slowly.

Front Mission 1st Remake (remaster of a remaster) famicom days unlocked last night and i've been solid on it since! Such Nostalgia! Though i wish they sorted out some of the QOL issues with the original, the remastered graphics are peach though!
Will add a screenshot later.

I've got a Switch Lite, but when I charge it up and play for a bit, I'll likely put it down for a day or two, but when I come back to it, the battery has a pretty significant drain, and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. I always go into settings and select power off. Is there some other setting I need?

 

[Russinating]

Any recommendations for games for my 10 year old niece?

 

[timmothy]

I can't wait to see what they come up with. I think all Nintendo consoles have a certain magic. In the end I won't buy one though unless I get rich, Gamepass has made me an Xbox fanboi

I ordered the Retroflag Splitpad Pro the other day, as it looked quite nice in the ETA review. Hoping it might help with the hand pain I get when using the Switch as a portable. RetroDodo review went up after purchase, and is more praise for the product.

Lately have been playing Dorfromantik on Switch, usually just before bed. It's pretty chilled out, and definitely recommended if you want a tile based town builder style game.

That doesn't sound right. My OLED will loose about 5-10% per day when sleeping. Hardly any if off fully.

I'd love something like this for the N64 games. It throws me off so bad the way they have mapped the joy cons.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

It's added a bit of weight, but it seems way more comfortable as a handheld. After playing for a little while last night, I didn't have the same pain in the centre of my hands.
The buttons and sticks feel a lot nicer also.

Need to try out some Hollow Knight or something to see what the d-pad is like, but it's nice to actually have a d-pad when handheld now...

Sports Story just randomly released yesterday and as a huge fan of Golf Story I jumped straight on it - this is the sequel. £12.80 and I had some points to get that down a bit. On holiday right now so a perfect game for me.

Does anyone have thoughts on Nintendo Labo? It looks cool and I'm wondering if it would be a worthwhile pickup to play racing games like MotoGP or even Grid AutoSport?
