Finally ordered a Switch yesterday. My wife and I combined our Christmas money and a few giftcards to go towards it. I've been waiting for a reason to buy one. They've been porting all these WiiU games we already have and I didn't want to get it just for SMO and Splatoon 2. But now there's Let's Go Pikachu and then a lot to look forward to in 2019 with Yoshi, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, and Pokemon so I knew now was the time to get one.

@Rudy_Manchego Target has a sale going (and it's next door to my work) so when I get off I'll probably go get Splatoon 2 while it's $42. I know it's rare when Nintendo games have decent sales and they take years to have permanent price drops so I gotta take advantage of that. SMO is at $48 so I'll get that at well. MK8D is also $42 but not sure if it's different enough from our WiiU version to buy again. I'm crazy to get a new console and more games though. 😂 I already had AC Odyssey, Spyro, Crash, and Lego DC Super Villains from Christmas and I've been playing Celeste (free with Xbox Gold).

@ArkhamKnerd I've heard it makes playing the game in docked mode easier (in terms of the motion controls). It also gives you a Mew.

Personally, I'm just going to stick to handheld mode, which has better controls anyway.

@Octane wheyyyy! Switch I guess? Not that it matters. I have been thinking about picking it up on Switch, though.

I hope you like it, I really had a blast. The whole time I was just really impressed that one dude made it. But it could have been one of those right time/right place type deals.

The main theme tune gets me pumped. I have been playing Super Metroid on Snes mini but it's just making me want to play AV if I am honest!

@kyleforrester87 The only game I bought for the Switch in 2018 was Minit. I want to get a bit more use out of the system; so why not on Switch I thought. And it's less than a gigabyte in size. But I should really get an SD card at some point in the future I think.

@ArkhamKnerd I will say it is easier to find time to play Switch as it is portable but I think I just say that to make myself feel better about my huge backlog! Good selection of games, hope you enjoy!

Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot

@kyleforrester87 I've always been told to not tear down the christmas tree until three king's day; so you get to see this avatar for another two days!

@Octane @kyleforrester87 Think I must have sunk 30+ into Axiom Verge, brilliant game. Have to admit though, the music did begin to grate towards the end of my play through.

Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

@JohnnyShoulder I agree, certain tracks in particular got on my nerves, but even that acted as a reminder that it was all done by one guy - music n all. Not bad for a non-musician!

Wow. So the first quarter of 2019 is damn near dead on this thing.

A Wii U port, no more Heroes spinoff and a Yoshi game.

@Knuckles-Fajita Sounds good to me, I played none of them. Like the look of all 3. Dunno if I'll get round to them any time soon mind you, and if I dont get them in the launch window I always feel like waiting for a sale.

@Knuckles-Fajita Yoshi looks alright. Pre-orders aren't live yet, but I think I might buy it if I can secure a copy for €45-50.

@kyleforrester87 I played NSMBU and while it is my favourite of the "New" games along with the original "New" title, I have yet to play Luigi's stuff. I may ask for it alongside Wolf2 for my birthday.

Regarding No More Heroes, I have the original on Wii, yet to play it. Cost me about £2.

And Yoshi...christ. Yoshi I just can't get into. I got 100% in Woolly World but I have no drive to play any of the other games and Crafted World is coming to soon for me to consider it. Yeah it's been almost 4 years exactly, but I'm still burned out on Yoshi platforming styles.

Heck even Donkey Kong has the same problem. I've just bought Tropical Freeze on Switch and it's....eh. I've never liked how DK controls. It feels imprecise to do some of his moves.
