Thinking of getting Captain Toad Treasure Hunter for the Switch. I rarely play my Switch these days, only when I visit my parents so I don't want anything substantial. I've got the demo so will give that go. Also have eleven quid credit on my account but will try and hold out till the black Friday deals.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
Hot Gimmick: Cosplay-Jong (Switch) - one of the Psikyo arcade ports/remasters on the eShop. Unlike the majority of their titles (which tend to be Shmups), this one is a (real) Mahjong game. Different than what I usually play, but it's really addicting (I put my more complete thoughts in the Switch thread).
Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)
My Retro den is gaining speed. I now have a unit with a TV, HDMI upscaler, PS1, PS2, PSTV, Gamecube, Snes classic, PSP, Gameboy and Gameboy Advance all laid out. Might add my OG NES and SNES. All are these are setup so I can try to capture some video from them for the Youtube channel so they are next to my PC. Next up is a Mega Drive/Genesis for Christmas and I am thinking maybe, just maybe a Dreamcast or Saturn next. Also looking for a Gameboy Player for the GC.

With Persona 4 Golden coming to an end soon (I’m kinda postponing until the end of the year) it’s time for a new Vita purchase so I bought a physical copy of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for 31.99 EUR. Looking forward to start 2019 with a proper playthrough of MGS 3.
@KratosMD I have played Smash a couple of times on various consoles, not excited for this at all but I'm thinking.. shall I just do it? It's probably pretty fun once you get into it and it looks fairly substantial..
@KratosMD yeah I am most likely going to pick it up, I prefer digital games on the Switch really, but kinda thinking I should go for physical in case I don't like it.. but it'll probably get more playtime if it's on the machine ready to go at all times. Plus it's a tenner more expensive.
@KratosMD I just pre-ordered the digital version to get those 600 points. No going back now, I hope I enjoy it! I used to be a big fan of fighting games in the PS1 era, and I love Towerfall so.. I'm hoping that'll be enough! The game seems pretty meaty from the trailer but to be honest I am going in very blind. I've only seen the trailer and played the 3DS demo years ago!
i just ordered Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 and 2 for the Wii after the news about MUA3 (I did have them on PS3 years ago but traded them in), although i was sad that the remasters were removed from PSN and XBL, anyone have any idea why?
"I pity you. You just don't get it at all...there's not a thing I don't cherish!"
"Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!
@mookysam Pretty good - I'm not so much in it for rarity but for best games (I also have a few not so good games that I have kept for nostalgia). On the top games, I've Mario Sunshine, MGS:Twin Snakes, Metroid Prime, Resident Evil 4 and Zelda Wind Waker. I also have Enter the Matrix and LOTR: TT & ROTK. Next on the list are Metroid Prime 2, Luigi's Mansion, Zelda Twilight Princess, Resident Evil Remake and Zero.
I am also tempted to save for one of the expensive HD converers for GC. THey go for like over £100 though.
