Is the master trial or whatever it's called worth the DLC price? I'm not very interested in hard mode or the costumes.

It's basically the Eventide Island quest on steroids. If you liked that quest then I think its worth it. There are also mini quests to find the costumes which I'm finding interesting even though I don't plan on wearing the costumes except for Tingle.

Remember that this DLC pack also gives you access to the supposedly more substantial DLC pack that has the new story content so maybe wait for more details on that before jumping on it.

Binding of Issac is another good coop with split joycons game. Of course there's also 1, 2 Switch.

The mail carrier picks up my sold games for free to ship. It couldn't be any easier. Hauling a bunch of stuff to Gamestop for so little is insane.

eBay sucks. I find it much easier to sell games on Amazon or even here in sa mart. Those deals sounds pretty decent so I guess GameStop isn't a complete rip off sometimes now.

I'm pretty bad at this new Zelda and I can't figure out how to dodge when locked on

Same as the other ones, jump to the sides or backflip. Try switching jump to B in the options. The default sucks, especially for combat.

Are they selling a digital code for $19.99 somewhere, because it's already $29.99 on the eShop and a digital version is already more convenient...?

I don't think so but it does come with the nice keychain if you buy it physically.

So my local library finally got Switch games in! Borrowed Just Dance, Tetris, Lego City, and Bomberman because why not...

So what the hell am I doing wrong in Bomberman? I've played for an hour. My experience is that I am the first one to die as the computer evades all my bombs with exact timing. I then watch all 7 of those fuckers start panicking as the spike stones close in on them after 2 minutes of perfect play. Instead of remaining still, they run back and forth In the two squares they are trapped in and then die prematurely by not just loving staying in place on the closest in block. As good as the computer is at ducking staying alone against me, they sure turn into idiots within the last minute.

What you're doing wrong is playing Bomberman against the computer. Play it multiplayer.

"Bayonetta 2, Super Smash Bros for Wii U, and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze are all great games in a year full of buggy, bland, and disappointing games... but are they enough to save the Wii U?"

Don't forget original Mario Kart 8. Gamers are dumb and lame and that's why the Wii U failed.

Had a lot of downtime at appointments today so I played a bunch of Mario Kart and Arms online. This Switch console kinda owns.

finally tried out ARMS ranked multiplayer last night and won my first game! also beat a couple of rank 4 people as a rank 1! Also got severly curbstomped by a 1 and a 2 so idk maybe I'm about as terrible at fighting games as I thought I was

Keep at it. Learning why you lost is half the fun imo. :thumbsup:

Is ARMS worth buying? I'm concerned that Splatoon 2 will eat its cake and the online will be dead within 4 months.

Arms is definitely worth buying. Really fun and unique multiplayer.

Splatoon 2 will be populated for a looong time, at least until 3. 1 still has a really active population and that's a 2 year old game on a dead system no one bought.

I've a choice between Splatoon 2 and ARMs before I take a extremely long flight at the end of the month, how is ARMs holding up?

It's holding up well and it's a good game but I'd still buy Splatoon 2 over it.

Shantae and Shovel Knight are coming to Blaster Master Zero and they both will be free for the first 2 weeks. Shovel Knight could even do the shovel drop and fish. :3:

Those Shantae and Shovel Knight DLC characters in Blaster Master Zero actually look really good, as if they jumped right out of their respective games. I'll bite. I don't know why I haven't bought that game yet; the demo was pretty fun.

It's probably my favorite remake of an 8-bit game. They really improve on everything wrong with the original without adding superfluous stuff. It's a no-brainer at :10bux:

Goddamn Minecraft at #2, a game that has been released on every platform. Jesus that game is popular.

I bet it'll catch up to Zelda overall when it's released physically.

I forgot Suda was also making stuff on Switch. The Switch really is good.

drat, I guess I missed the Amazon Splatoon 2 preorder deal by a day. Any luck it will come back at a reduced price, even if not $48?

Walmart is selling it for that price too if you do store pickup: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Splatoon-2-Nintendo-Switch/52901844

Yup, just saw an announcement on the Switch News section. Apparently it'll only work with Splatoon 2 at first. I hope they add compatibility for games already out like Mario Kart and Arms.

As we prepare for Splatoon 2, I wonder if an ethernet adapter worthwhile on the Switch. Have they been tested and is there a particular recommended model?

Any that worked with Wii and Wii U should work on Switch. There is an official one by Nintendo so that would probably be the recommendation.

Splatoon has more interesting lore than literally every other multiplayer shooter. I hope they bring back the weird artifacts with the WW1-esque drawings in 2.

Cave Story on Switch is definitely worth the $30 if you buy physical. The extras are cool.

It's a mouse cursor based game. Shoehorning console controls into it takes it from an 8 to like a 3.

It works fine for the game it's based on. I do hope that the Switch version has reworked controls though since the gamepad controls for the PC version are dogshit.
