Sorry I was more trying to highlight that simply showing a cartoon of a fat Italian plumber send the world crazy. Not specific game shots like the Horizon Zero Dawn. But you're still right with the mavity rush 2 thing.

I'm tired so it's hard to put across. But its basically Nintendos 'style' which allows them to be borderline childish and it works so well for them.

true

Woot almost there!

Phate · 10 May 2017 at 19:36

It does indeed feel VERY close now

So far I have...

- Dock sock
- Pro Controller

I am being gifted as wedding presents...

- HORI Case
- OZRLY Screen protector
- Zelda or MK8D, my choice
- Possibly Zelda DLC as well.

By the time I get back from honeymoon I'll only need the console itself which is awesome

Get the Hori stand too if you're going to travel with it. It's well worth it.

Thanks Kree. Will look into it.

I need to sort an Anker 20100 and a Micro SD card...aside from the console ill be all set.

Last night I spent a couple of hours on MK64...I swear it wasn't this hard 20 years ago...

Picked up Mario Kart 8 whilst I was in the states last week, loving it, almost finished all the Grand Prix's for the 50cc class, got 2 races left for the last Grand Prix. it's VERY slow but I want all them unlocks

There is zero point doing 50cc as getting triple gold stars in 150cc also gives them to you for 50cc and 100cc.

Heads up for those interested in RIME (like me) - https://mynintendonews.com/2017/05/10/the-digital-version-of-rimes-switch-port-is-now-priced-at-30/

In a nut shell. The price which was originally higher for the Switch version due to additional development etc and now they are saying if you buy the digital one, its the same price as buying a physical copy on the PS4/XBO...or if you buy the physical one, which they cannot change the price of, you get a free high quality download of the soundtrack of the game...which then means you're paying the same price as someone else on another platform who bought both the game and the soundtrack.

Oh... Ohhhhh... That hurts... I.. All that time! Oh well, I'll finish the last 2 races and dive straight into 200cc then. I'm literally 2 races in on the last Grand Prix lol.

I don't think 200cc gives you all the stars for the ccs below it. I can't confirm it as I triple starred 150cc and mirror before I triple starred 200cc.

I'll check at lunch.

More like it. £20ish would be nice (doubtful based on that $ price).

£19.99 for minecraft on switch! Looks good for a buy from me.

Try the 150cc after the 50cc. I think you'll be surprised!

I went 50cc then 100cc because I am a complete MK novice so I had fun. Triple starred the 100cc with no problems. The 150cc is a lot closer for me.

Since I've started playing online though I have pretty much abandoned the cups. I will go back to them later.

Plainsong · 11 May 2017 at 12:18

I don't know about Minecraft. I played the demo on PS4 and was like 'meh' so I don't know if I'll bother. Perhaps for survival mode - is it worth getting it for that? I don't generally like games where you just build stuff. I don't really see the point

Well, if it's as Kree says, there really is no reason for me to hit up the 150cc. Actually, that's not true, I need to reverse race. Literally launching it up now.
