Deathsmiles Collection coming at the end of the month. Can’t wait to play IIX again.

I double dipped on PS4 and Switch for that, but haven't played them yet. Apparently 2 isn't a very good port.

Just as a reminder, there is a Japanese physical edition and it does include English.

Nintendo are 100% bros. Countless fathers worldwide can use this as justification for play with the Switch before the kids get their dirty mitts on it.

Great job, nintendo!

Online multiplayer and DLC will be coming to Cruisn' Blast

What the hell is with that advertising on mobile with the black bars closing in horizontally whilst you are reading? Worst I've ever seen, I think.

Online multiplayer is welcome though!

“Nintendo Switch eShop is back online after experiencing outages on Christmas Day


Problems started early Christmas morning”

Welp, no one could say they didn’t warn us. Provided you follow them on Twitter.

We even provided a meme-based warning.
Hmm...I wonder if Cruisin' Blast will be better with the extra bits. Now to figure out if I get it or wait on people's opinions.

Has anyone upgraded from a Switch lite to the OLED model? If so do you feel it’s worth it and why?

[Neon Ignition]

From the little time I've spent with the OLED I felt like the casing felt heftier and a bit more premium but the screen wasn't near as better as I expected it to be. Overall it felt like one of the smallest incremental improvements of a system Nintendo has ever put out and I'd be incredibly hard pressed to say existing owners would be spending money wisely on paying the extra on it over other options

Interesting.

Part of me feels like there's an argument to just go for the 2019 Redbox Switch if in need of a Switch upgrade - it's cheaper than the SWOLED and you get the same improved battery, after all.
