Just switched the game back on and I'm right back at the start of 1-5 . I gotta fight through a few battles again to get to the midway boss? I can sense frustration on the horizon...

I was too harsh, there - there is only one wee battle before you meet the mid-level boss, and it was pretty fun anyway! Right, so I'm about to tackle the Rabbid Piranha...

Yay! I took down that midboss*, rescued Luigi and opened up some stuff back at Peach's Castle - I feel epic .

* After activating the "easy" option for the fight. It still wasn't easy, though ...

Luigi is the best character B)

You're going to have fun with some later battles jawa

I just started 1-6 and won the first battle but I gotta call it a day for now. I don't know about you guys, but this feels like a "summer" kind of game... so bright and cheery . I can see that there are less welcoming environments off the castle hub, though...

Ubi have worked hard to implement the kind of cool wee touches that you often see in Nintendo games.

I have spent a little time just enjoying the views. They can be so lush!

Have to agree, one of the most appealing aspects of Switch is seeing Nintendo's post-1996 art style finally being realised with the Snowdrop and Unreal Engine 4 engines.

If Miyamoto's comments and the new Yoshi are any indication, all Nintendo development is switching to UE4.

I'm about to go live with Mario + Rabbids

I've ordered this, hopefully the missus will be out when the post arrives with it

Great reviews for this! Incredible turnaround since the reaction to the concept when it leaked. My copy should arrive tomorrow, looking forward to giving it a go!

Each world definitely has its own feel, and yes the environmental design in the game is fantastic. I've just finished world 3 and it is my favourite yet - but definitely not summery! It's a spooky-themed world with a central town surrounded by three distinct areas - castle ruins, rural village, and swamp. It's wonderful

The third boss is great

gooseberry fool, I'm going to have to buy this. Oh well.

It may just be that Royal Mail didn't manage to deliver this to me on Saturday, but the incorrect name in the topic title has really been bugging me (not to mention in the in the Friday Feeling topic).

There you go, pre-ordered from ze Amazon.de.

Will I ever unpack the PS4?

Dat buyer's remorse.

Thread OP changed to SD64 as he is an enthusiast of this game who wants to write a comprehensive OP for it. Carry on!

The "+" has been restored ... I must confess that, like HSH, the ampersand was triggering me .

Well this is charmingly cute

Does anyone know were to buy the season pass. I've looked but can't find any sites selling it unless it's not available yet.

Sites?

It's on the eShop from the game menu

Oh man, the mid-boss music is super Banjo Kazooie-y! Based Grant
