Is anyone else still having problems downloading stuff?

Yep, still getting that error code as of last night.

Same here. Bomberman R won't download.

Is anyone else still having problems downloading stuff?

Yeah. I purchased Cities Skyline and Monster Sanctuary last night.

Cities has downloaded but MS keeps getting the error message.

What a joke Nintendo are.

I changed my DNS settings as per this article and it seems to have done the trick https://kotaku.com/some-switch-users-can-t-download-games-after-recent-fir-1847082519

This worked! Thanks

[Preezy]

Is Cities Skyline any good on switch? Has anyone played it?

I own it, having never played it on any other formats. I think it's great, though it can slowdown once your city size becomes quite large

I just finished downloading it. Also never played it on anything else, really looking forward to having a property city sim on a handheld - sewage management whilst I'm on the loo

I'm enjoying this! Took me a few false starts and a YouTube tutorial to understand what was going on but yeah it's alright for £8!

Must say it runs much better than Civ VI which is probably the only comparable game on the switch I've played.

Yeah I've enjoyed it so far, managed to get to a population of over 1,000 using the below method:

Anyone bought much in the sales? I have picked up

Reigns: Kings and Queens
Stories Untold
Afterparty
Part Time UFO
The Last Campfire

[Spindash]

I bought Inertial Drift and Crosscode. Been playing the former tonight, it's very satisfying once you get used to the twin-stick controls. Ridge Racer Type 4 sort of vibe.

Even though I own them on PC/Series X I couldn't say no to the 2 Metro games at less than £10 for both.

shyguy64 did you sell bugs in animal crossing new horizons today.

[Balladeer]

I got a couple of odd ones:

Creature in the Well (50% off)
Gato Roboto (50% off)
Nairi: Tower of Shirin (70% off)
And CrossCode at 35% off (hey Spindash!), but it's the one I'll probably actually play next. Probably not in time for GRPlayde, sadly: still got to finish something else out of my list to get there, and I'm juggling six relatively chunky games!

Also, one other game to add to my 'probably' list: CrisTales. Not seen much of it yet, but it looks really nice.

nope

Do you know there's a demo of CrisTales? It was a while ago and it's been delayed since so the full name might be a bit different.

Also not seen this mentioned anywhere but there's a demo of Ys IX available now.

[Jenuall]

Just picked up Mario + Rabbids in the sale, it was too tempting at that price!

I did not, no! Might hunt that down. As for Ys, that's a reasonable way off if I play it at all: I want to play VIII first, which I've asked for as a birthday present, and my birthday isn't until August.

Goddamnit: even if this isn't the year of blockbusters I hoped for there's still too much to play!

Good choice! I bought the DLC ages ago but only just getting round to playing it, not enjoying it as much as the main game but still seems solid so far, bought it when on sale so think it was only a few quid so can’t complain too much really.

It's bloody great. The difficulty sneaks up on you later too, so you realy need to tailor your team to the scenario.

But we all know you bought it for the donkey Kong DLC

[Drumstick]

Mario, Luigi and Rabbid Peach supremacy

[ITSMILNER]

Someone over on Era knocked up an image of Nintendo's switch releases since launch



2017 was such a great launch year for the console

[OrangeRKN]

What's that "Bond" game at the start of 2021?

[Tomous]

2019 was always a great year

[Drumstick]

2021 is shaping up to be the best yet for me.

Can't get enough of that sweet Kong action

It's called Buddy Mission Bond, I don't think it's had an English release yet.
