Forgot to mention that my bundle did come with some Paw Patrol game. Going to punt it to CEX today, likely for cash as having checked instore they don't have much of interest to me to make me take store credit.

I found a screen protector really useful, but opinions differ. I noticed that the dock was making tiny scratches on the left hand side of the screen even though I was being super delicate when placing it in there. I bought the below and had zero problem fitting one first go:

Anyone tried that Fitness Boxing demo? Saw there was a competition to win the game in the newsletter so I figured I'd give it a go. They say you need to send them a picture of your workout, but when you play the demo the screenshot function is disabled :slol:

Also, I think my joycon might be dying again :dread: Same joycon I've already had replaced! Playing Pokemon Let's Go and I can't run upwards unless I click the stick? :? And it seems to have a much worse wireless connection than the other joycon. Kept dropping the connection playing boxing... Concerning.

This game is strawberry floating awesome so far. A few flaws, but I'm really enjoying the gooseberry fool out of it.



Also, this is a jaw dropping bit of music.

Bought. Thanks for that! Was nice and easy. Does Eshop credit expire once activated? And do I have to avoid switching regions now to avoid losing the credit? Or is that only applicable to residual cash on an account region?

Doesn't expire, but you would lose the credit you have if you change region.

You can have separate accout from different regions, each with their own credit.

Any bought Horizon Chase Turbo? It got Nintendolife eshop game of the month for November and it sounds like it would scratch an Outrun itch I've got at the moment. But Outrun comes out in the next few weeks so I don't k ow whether to wait.

Yeah, kind of what you'd expect a modern Outrun to look like.

Thanks for explaining that. I will just stop being a cheap skate and changing region.

Got my birthday month e-mail from Nintendo, with free wallpapers and such as normal.

Also has the 'Just For You' 30% discount, but they're not that impressive any more. Previously, it covered a lot of big titles (Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, etc.). Nothing for the Switch (yet), but the 3DS/Wii U offerings are weaker too.

Wii U
Mario Kart 64
Mario 3D World
Pullblox World
Xenoblade X

3DS
Super Mario Kart
Dragon Quest VIII
Pocket Card Journey
Paper Mario Sticker Star


Played a bit of Super Mario Party this week, and it's surprisingly good. 4 boards seems very low, but there are other modes. Should be a few nights worth at least. Tempted to pick up the Wii U version too, even though I don't think it's meant to be as good.
