That is very unlike shopto, they are normally very efficient.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

It was actually pretty good but I hope it has been well updated.


This came up on my YouTube feed and I thought it had that happy holiday island feel of Wii Sports Resort. It's not a new Pilot Wings but I saw city hand gliding which might feel the gap.

I loved Go Vacation. I wasn't too keen on the sports themselves (granted I don't think I tried many), but exploring the open areas with 3 friends was a lot of fun, we spent hours just messing around with it.

It's getting a lot of praise on twitter. I probably won't end up getting it as I don't really have anyone to play with however. Loner face.

Gave Octopath Traveller a wee go. strawberry float me the voices are awful. Turned them off tout suite. Looks lovely though.

Its actually how I imagined a future Nintendo system UI. But you'd have an arcade to access VC and an indie games store would be the eshop. Settings at the town hall. Ah well. Such bizarre thoughts are a thing of the past now.

You already have two versions of the game. Play some actual Zelda :lol:

Absolutely, I place the vast majority of my game orders with them and they're usually excellent. Apparently they've not yet been supplied with the games by (presumably) Nintendo.

At first I was like "wow, a new Gamecube title from Nintendo in 2018", not knowing it's actually a port of a Wii game Iv'e never heard of. If this were revealed during their E3 direct however, then those first 10 seconds would set many people up for Pokémon.

I've had an email from ShopTo confirming that their supplier has not delivered copies of Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition to them and that they won't receive them until Monday. I've decided to cancel my order; it's a chance to have a breather and think about whether I really want to purchase it.

I vote the forum takes control of Jawa’s purchases and we all vote on whether he should buy a game or not going forward.

Ban request

Also, can someone explain why Minecraft is listed under coming soon on the eshop, with a different description/set of images than the already released Minecraft: Switch edition?

Are Nintendo likely to release a GoTY edition of Zelda after E3?
I've picked up Xenoblade to keep me busy but I want to pick up Zelda with the DLC included if it's likely to happen
