He's been doing this since 2016. Before then he posted sort of... Normally.. Sort of. What is he???


He said he posts at 23:49 because he’s busy, maybe he has extremely planned out days and that time is allotted for posting on the forum

Also interested in that Old Man's Journey, (my strawberry floating life?!) and Fe though. Fe and Owlboy seem quite expensive to me though.


I'm also tempted by Owlboy after playing it at RTX last year. It's the pixel art alone that I find really appealing, the game looks great

I hope it does as well, hopefully it'll have a good % of the actual GameCubes catalogue of games in it as well when/if (hopefully the first option!) does happen, I need to be able to play Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door again without the need to get my GameCube out (sadly don't have space for them to all be out at the same time), I'd live to have the GC version of Animal Corssing as a portable offering as it was amazing. I dont know if they'd be able to make Mario Sunshine work due to the lack of analogue triggers though. Hopefully they'll be able to release Rogue Squadron 2/3 on it but I imagine that's unlikely.

obviously not a direct fit but it should be fairly easy to change a couple of things and get the controller working as it would on the console on nintendo's. obviously that takes away from the portable aspect, but it would still be good for games like sunshine that could potentially be problematic.

Not ideal but a potential workaround nonetheless! Although they'd have to release the adaptor again if they went this direction, not sure how widely available the official ones are currently.

You're in for a treat, mine arrived yesterday played a bit last night - it's as good as I remembered from the limited amount I played on the Wii U. Tried the download code for Bayonetta 1 but it's not available yet so guess have to wait until Friday for that. Can't wait to play some more later. It looks lovely in handheld mode too :wub:

Definitely reccomend that 8bitdo Snes clone pad with the analog sticks on it guys for any 2d stuff you play. The D Pad is way better than the pro controller but the sticks maybe not so much. But for £30 hereits a steal and it works with phones/retropie/PC as well.

Celeste feels way better on this than the pro controller D Pad.

I really havent played my switch much at all, I clocked in about 15 hours on zelda and thats my most played game, Recently ive played about 3 hours on Sonic Forces but I have played more fallout 4 since the switches release than I have played everything on the switch combined for example, no idea why it has failed to grab me very much so far.

Not played it for long but I'm pretty impressed with how Fifa 18 plays on the Switch, granted it may be partly down to the fact my last Fifa game was 2013 on the Wii U but for £23 I don't think you could ask for more when you can play it handheld.

Been a while since I played anything on Switch. The other day it had powered down so deeply I had to internet to find out how to get it running again.

Super impressed with Mario + Rabbids. How IGN only scored this at 7.7 I've no idea, they're way off. I've just done World 3's mid-boss and it's been utterly fantastic so far. Even with the Rabbids.

Check out my YouTube channel!

I don't think that is the cost, if you buy one of them then you get £10/£15 off the other. Works out at £50 for both I think.

Coincidentally I've not picked mine up for a couple of weeks as well. I was getting into Stardew and then suddenly felt a bit intimidated the sheer scope of it and I've been reading books instead of an evening.
