Yeah, I have it on WiiU and it's a great game. For that price and the extra features on Switch I thinks its an absolute steal.
You also get 250 gold points to claim on your Nintendo account which adds to the deal.

What do the gold points do? Not got a Switch yet!

Each one is a penny off a new eShop game.

Titan Quest out on the Switch today? Does anyone know if it's the updated version with the recent expansion the game received?

Plainsong · 31 Jul 2018 at 12:19

Not sure about the updated content, all I can see is that it is reviewing pretty badly.

kinger8938 · 31 Jul 2018 at 12:26

It's a shame as I'd love a good game in that isometric style on switch. Maybe wasteland 2 will fare better

Plainsong · 31 Jul 2018 at 12:52

Yeah Wasteland 2 looks really nice. Fingers crossed they do a good job bringing it over. Titan Quest sounds like a rush job/cash in to me.

Yeah TQ is a nope, doesn't include the Ragnarok expansion and the price is disgusting for a 12 year old rehash.

Any word yet on a Hyper Light Drifter release date?

I purchased Owl Boy as I'd only just seen it. Was about £17 at base.

Bought some metal replacement latches to try and repair my right joy con.

Bought the Pro controller today. Now I see what the fuss is about

Is it worth £60? Hell no. But unlike the Switch, the Joy Cons, and the Dock, it actually feels really nice, sturdy. It's really comfortable to hold. And it has proper analogue sticks. Great.

Finally took the plunge and ordered the red Mario joy-cons from Amazon. They arrive tomorrow.

Graphics wise it's not too dissimilar but the portability of the console is a game changer for me personally. It's also seen more support than the Wii U did in it's entire lifespan with a lot more to come. If he liked his Wii U I imagine he'll love the Switch too.

The red Mario joy-cons are so nice.

Smyths Toys are doing a couple of two game bundles for £310. I got mine with Rayman and Mario Rabbids.

kurosagi01 · 2 Aug 2018 at 08:56

Went to SmythToys the other day to buy a wired controller which they have a couple varying from £15-30, I went for the Crash bandicoot which was £20 and I also bought for nostalgic feel Sonicmania Plus.
