    Willing to bet that following Virtua Fighter 5 and Super Monkey Ball, Sega will do this next.

      Managed to raise some funds after for a Switch Oled and pre ordered one. Is it best to transfer all my users from my old switch to the Oled then my animal crossing island using the island transfer app?

        Our retailer here has 'sold out' of pre-orders and doesn't have a waiting list in place for new ones.

        I know this problem isn't limited to Nintendo stuff, but It's a bit of a ****ing joke. The whole point of pre-orders is supposed to be about getting your name on a waiting list so you don't have to deal with time-wasting bull****. Pre-orders are now nothing more than a partial sale in advance, which are limited by stock.

        I didn't really want one anyway (no time to play anything at all these days) - it just would have been nice to maybe make use of this big stack of Switch games I have in a box. I'll wait until Triangle Strategy is a little closer before trying again.

        For Christmas we'll buy Lego and miniature painting stuff instead.

          Honestly who cares about the new oled model? Just get the slight battery upgrade one if you really want to play on it.

            One thing that caught me out with the island transfer app is it need to be on both machines before you start.

              The boxart for Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp has been revealed. It's an update of the OG Advance Wars boxart.

                WayForward's 2009 Wii reboot of the NES classic A Boy & His Blob is getting a HD re-release (the same that was released on other formats back in 2016) on Switch later this year.

                    WHO ARE YOU AND WHERE IS THE REAL FISHBOWLHEAD??

                    Just playing! I do agree with you about the revamped artwork.

                      I'll bite then I prefer the old one. Love the sketchier look of it.

                        Yeah, this is the thing. Back in the 90s, there was the perception if you pre-ordered something, you were ordering a copy, or a unit. It's not like GAME will actually order you a unit if you place a pre-order.

                          Trust you to respond!

                          No doubt that the OG artwork is iconic (I posted as much in the no-text artwork gallery thread!), but WayForward have clearly done it justice with their modern take on it.

                          I'm excited for Re-Boot Camp and I think it will do the original GBA games justice.

                            The new one looks like clipart.

                              You've never seen clipart before, then?

                                This randomly popped up on youtube, instantly fell in love with it. Super cozy environment to explore it's adorable i ended up blowing the £5.99 on it well a couple of quid less as i cashed in those gold points i had sitting in my uk account. It's a bit rough around the edges but the charm totally negates that, played for a few hours and started getting my campsites built it's relaxing stress free fun.
