So essentially its just type-c(dock) to type-c(switch) which if that's what you're saying then it makes more sense to me than other methods i've seen online, I have seen few people running issues using usb-c+hdmi adapter with the switch which makes them not work anymore due to newer firmware.

Yes, it's just a simple £4 USB-C male-to-female extension cable.

I read that Bomb Chicken is good fun if a little short. Might get it at some point.

It's on my (huge) list of games to get on a discount.

What's everyone playing this week?
Still mixing between Gungeon and DK myself, trying Warframe on PS4, not really sure how well that will translate to handheld mode. Loads of small text and info on screen all the time. I was getting overwhelmed on the big screen!

Received the Orzly grip today and I agree with what was said above, the material does feel A bit clammy. I haven't had a proper play but it does feel better in hand, just not sure if I like it or not just yet

I finished Hollow Knight as in the credits rolled at 94%. I will go back to it when the DLC drops and try and finish off the stuff that I have missed. Outside of that I am playing Yoku's Island Express, a bit of DK, a lot of MK8D and last night, for the first time in ages, I played some Turf War in Splatoon and had a blast. Next week I am going to get Octopath Traveler and probably Inside as well. I've got some gold points expiring on the 31st so I might as well use them for something I know I will buy anyway. It'll either be that or I will check out what's on sale at the time.

Finished chapter 1 of Shining resonance refrain in "original mode", going dive into it more once i finished RE4 on PC.

Anyone got Skyrim for their switch? Ive played it on both the ps4 a d PC but im tempted to give the switch a go as well! How does it run?

Plainsong · 18 Jul 2018 at 21:22

It runs amazingly well. Loved my time with Skyrim on the Switch.

Tibbz2 · 18 Jul 2018 at 23:18

Same here, it's awesome playing it on a handheld console.

ak22 · 19 Jul 2018 at 00:40

Runs well on switch but the fov is lower than pc, you can't change it but it's a great game.

Hollowknight completed, took me around 34 hours with 62% completion. This is my favourite game of the year so far, and if you haven’t bought it be sure to add to your list! 10/10

You should try the Mumba one

Just been playing fortnite for the last week or 2 not played anything else on switch I think it's brilliant

I really need to give it another go but when I play an online game it's always Paladins or Splatoon 2.

I'd definitely recommend it , once you get used to it, makes for some great moments and the online works really well if you die in opening minute your straight back to lobby and in another game within a minute. Also I'd recommend playing with the pro controller even if it's in handheld i just put it in the hori stand

. Paying duos is good fun too, and it has in game voice comms

I may give it a shot soon, after using this one last night it did do the job of feeling better in my hands for a lengthy play session, not too sure if I like the materials feel.

Pretty much same time and completion as me and I completely agree with this post

great game. Not sure if I will return to it or not but I loved my playthrough.

I keep thinking about picking it up. I never actually finished the main quest line as I got distracted by side content and then messing around with mods to the point of ruining my fun with the game

Not played the DLC either. If I ever see it for £20, I'd snap it up

Can you buy and set to download a digital game from the ninty website? Only seem to find .com (US)...

kinger8938 · 19 Jul 2018 at 11:51

I bet enter the gungeon will go on sale today what with its big free update rolling out later, typical

Where do you guys go for E-shop game reviews?

Nintendo life seems to score pretty much everything highly, its rare they give anything less than a 7/10.

Phate · 19 Jul 2018 at 12:44

Spawn wave gameplay videos. He does quite a bit of Nindie stuff.

Yeah I struggle to take them too seriously, but they aren't often too far off the mark I guess
