Be really cool if they sent them to you, officially printed etc. Make for a good collectible for the game

Expensive week. I played the demo for both of them and questioned which one to get. Browsed the store and thought **** it let's get both. My willpower is weak.

Lovely stuff

Anyone picked up the add on for sonic mania? I assume it's out! Not sure if there's enough there or Not?

Hope you got Captain Toad too!

Picked it up for £28.99

Enjoying it together with mario tennis aces, which is not getting much love in here.

Looks like I picked up Enter the Gungeon at a good time

Up until 1am playing it 2 nights in a row now, tired

I think I will pick up Octopath eventually, it looks like good fun. For now though I'm going to stick to Hyrule Warriors until MH is released

Phate · 15 Jul 2018 at 12:37

Speaking of Octopath, looking forward to putting some serious hours into it this week!

Got my copies of Thimblweed Park today;

Very nice.

So my right joy con that won't stay in the console has a broken clip. I took a close look and the little plastic thing us chipped at one edge. Seems to happen a lot from what I have seen online. Rather annoying

Anyone who plays mostly in handheld mode, i would definitely recommend getting the Mumba case off amazon. Adds a little bit of bulk round the joy-con area so it's nicer to hold for longer periods of time (my hands go stiff holding the switch with no case in the matter of 20 mins or so). But it also holds it all together and makes it feel like a much more solid unit , as I thought after a while the joy cons do loosen. Also protected mine from a drop thank the Lord haha

Been playing mostly fortnite recently getting into it, presently surprised how well it runs , thought it would be a direct port of the mobile game bit it's actually a lot closer to the consoles which makes it brilliant to play in handheld

I ordered this after seeing your post, i can concur - makes it much more comfortable to hold - need to get a dock that fits it without taking it out though.

Going to add one of these to my next order as I already have the Orzly carry case, looks the business and well reviewed.

That looks really nice. A lot more elegant that some that I have seen. My only slight reservation would be having to remove it every time I dock it - for me, that would be every single day.

d_brennen · 16 Jul 2018 at 12:19

That's a point. I only really dock mine for play at the weekend and not even that with this weather. Little ones aren't allowed it Monday to Friday... But I charge it on the dock exclusively.

I may try this one. Getting issues with Enter the Gungeon, struggling to keep my thumb on the right stick properly as it's essentially a twin stick shooter. I think it's down to it not being super comfortable to hold causing me to slip from time to time

Get a USB-C extension cable and just plug that in when you want to play on the TV. The dock heats up the Switch rather than cooling it so you won't have any problems there.

Got the Prime Day deal for the Switch with Odyssey and a Pro Controller for £330...do I pull the trigger?!

Edit: Bought it, then immediately cancelled the order...I can afford it, but have three forthcoming holidays to pay for and am trying to buy a house. Sensible-head won this round

(I'll probably end up buying one next week...)

I've just looked into this and honestly I didn't know that was even a thing. Thanks I might give that a go!

Hell of a deal though. Puts the console at around £230.
