I was just eyeing up WiiU’s on eBay...
Now I want a switch!
Late 30’s... HUGE Nintendo aficionado. They make great games, and great games do not necessarily need all the bling of cutting edge technology. Pinball is an obvious parallel.
Was playing Mario Odyssey properly the first time last night... (no kids or interruptions)
I haven’t smiled this much since running through the “YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER !!” coins at the end of Funky in Super Mario World.
Quoted from pin2d:I just played Mario Odyssey over the holidays for the first time. I think I am going to order a switch based on that title alone, what a fun game. The guy that owned the switch said that Zelda was even better than Mario Odyssey too.
I’m playing Zelda most right now, the scale of the world they’ve built is incredible.
Quoted from timtim:Thanks for spreading the word of REZ, Amen
pretty much the only reason i want a psvr
Sold my Dreamcast copy years ago, but still have it on xBox 360.
When the Level 4 boss starts running and the music shifts up a gear - that moment still evokes an emotional “this is awesome” reaction to this very day. Akin to SHOWTIME on TAF.
I would buy a Switch version in a heartbeat.
Quoted from Pinballerchef:Who returns a Switch?! I’m contemplating buying another one (well for my son). The Switch actually got me back into playing some Wii/WiiU games I hadn’t finished....super sweet the WiiU plays every Wii game.
I've also bought a WiiU after the Switch - StarFoxZero controls are little bit mental, but the game is great!
Quoted from Rarehero:Ever see Conker’s Bad Fur Day on N64? One of the bosses is a giant piece of shit who sings about wiping his ass with you & calls you a twat.
Check this out - the Nintendo 64 version is unbleeped while the Xbox version was censored! LOL
That boss had me in stitches on the N64! As did the bit when you walk about pissing on the little fire demon dude.
On balance, the N64 was my favourite console. The controller, good RARE games, Nintendo in-house games, no stupid loading times, plus the critical time to play and enjoy those games that i lack in older years. Blast Corps, GoldenEye, PDark, DK64, Banjo, Mario64, Ocarina, Majora, Star Fox, Jet Force Gemini, F-Zero X, Diddy Kong, 1080, Pilot wings, Conker’s, MKart 64... plus others! (Wrong thread, i appreciate, but such a good time).
Quoted from Rarehero:At the time, I kinda hated the N64...I moved away from Nintendo and became a Playstation guy (and Sega Saturn). While I loved Mario 64, I found most of the games samey & blurry. All the best Nintendo 3rd parties moved to Sony, and they were just killing it in every genre...plus CD sound, cutscenes, cheaper games. On PS1 I loved the Ridge Racer series (that’s where Rare Hero comes from), Oddworld games, Wipeout series, Brave Fencer Musashi, Megaman continued on PS1, Castlevania SOTN, Metal Gear Solid, etc etc. The music genre started on PS1 with Parappa The Rapper, Um Jammer Lammy, Bust-a-Groove, and import DDR & Beatmania. I bought N64 when Conker came out...that’s the game that turned me onto the system.
Traded my SNES with loads of top games - all mint, boxed, for a PS1. Initially felt right, it was the cooler console, but BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER (apart from C&C Red Alert). Never clicked with the PS1. Got fed up with Snake constantly taking phone calls mid-game - worse than modern parents! Didn't like the controller, and it put me off buying any future Sony consoles. RE: Ridge Racer - played that in the arcades only, like Virtua Racer and Daytooooooooooooooonaaaaaaaaaaa.
By "cheaper games", i am sure we're not talking about copies here 
Quoted from insx:There's a good t-spin tutorial on youtube in 2 parts, it covers how you should be looking to set it up (including triples).
Link appreciated!
Virtua Racing!
Anyone who spent anytime in arcades in the early 90's will know where i'm coming from...
Still rock-hard.
Enjoying Starlink right now, might be down to the 80% discount!
As a BIG fan of Starfox64 (or LylatWars as we Europeans had to tolerate), I was hoping for more of that, which this isn’t exactly, but still very enjoyable.
NEED the Goose game next.
Quoted from northvibe:Do we know if this is local or/and online 2player?
I’m not sure - it was an article in the Guardian newspaper. I’ll add the link here...

Update! I secretly tip-toed into Twitter land for a brief moment and found some more info:
Local multiplayer, coming to all platforms
Play through the whole game with a friend
One of you plays as one goose, the other one plays as the other goose
You can carry each other around in a box
My 5yr old son and I are both literally honking with excitement. Best game in years.
Quoted from Pinballerchef:Mario 64 was ugly to begin with. But every ounce of it was fun!
Mario64 raised the bar.
A once 2D game just became 3D overnight, so naturally and effortlessly.
Own Mario64, Sunshine and Galaxy - all boxed. Bought by me on their original releases 
Still just pre-ordered Allstars 3D. It’s a disease. 
Goose Day.

I'm so fucking excited... my 5yr old is quite happy about it too.
Quoted from winteriscoming:I mentioned it weeks ago to my 4-year-old and she has asked about it many times since. I even drew a goose on the calendar for her.
T-shirt?
