Latest Purchases

Doubt it'll come to Switch. Even the collection isn't coming to Xbox, despite KH3 coming to it, so you can see where he real fanbase is - PS4 right now.

But yeah, agree. I only gave KH a chance because of the FF connection, but they eventually reduced the FF cameos and worsened the convoluted plot. It's unnecessary, and I do wonder what people are seeing in KH. I've noticed more people just wanting the series to end so we can have Square moving onto creating new games that aren't intent on ridiculous scripts.

I'm really hoping we see a good Square again post FF15 and KH3, but I'm hyped for neither of them. I hope FF7R is the restart of it all, but we'll see.

Tetsuya Nomura mate. The more this guy got his hand on the series, the more FF went downhill and KH is the epitome of all the things that make me hate this guy from the depth of my gut. Sakaguchi also made some questionable stuff over the years (Blue Dragon was boring as hell), but overall I prefer that guy. The Last Story wasn't FF, but I loved every bit of it. I never played Lost Odyssey but I heard only good things about it. Whatever the case may be, I'm not excited for any KH game from here on out, and while I'm not excited for FFXV but not completely indifferent either, just the chara design makes me want to throw up mogs.

How this guy came to be so renowned and so loved, I will never understand. At least some of the previous FFs he's worked on, despite having shitty chara design (Tidus... UGH!!) had other pleasant things to make up for it, I loved the Sphere Grid, and some of the design in the environments was breath taking, not to mention the great music. Anyway I don't know where the FF7R is headed, I'm mildly excited for it, because at its core it's still a Sakaguchi game, but if I hear that Nomura went and changed things to suit his own style more, I won't be pleased. Nomura only ever did ONE thing that I thoroughly liked : The World Ends With You. I even find the chara design to be OK in that game, quite surprinsgly.

I'm gonna take this to the FF thread, because I've realised I rambled a bit and have taken the thread way too off-topic haha.

Nice gets, Flynnie! I admit I haven't played my NES Mini much since getting it at launch, but it's a nice item to have... And I just wanted to support it to get them to do a SNES Mini...

Haven't posted my obvious purchases since the Switch launch... I blame Zelda lol.

Thanks! I haven't posted on my account since last summer, I couldn't get my account unlocked so its been a while since I've been on the forums !

I've been away from the UK for 3 years now and i've been amassing a WiiU collection (buying games and having them sent to my parents address), now my sister is coming to Australia in May and bringing my WiiU and my games with her. So all of a sudden i've got Captain Toad, DK Tropical Freeze, FAST Racing Neo, MK8, Smash, Mario 3DWorld, Wind Waker HD,  Starfox Zero and Guard, plus Pandora's Tower as well! I am going to be wayyyyyy too busy! 

Hows Until Dawn?

haha, not got around to trying it yet...basically for the same reason you will have when you get your Wii U - too many games! So many games I buy cheap I just don't get around to, and right now, Zelda is just eating up all of my game time. It'll likely be one of the next ones on my list once I finally put Zelda down tho!

I'm so far behind on games that i want to play that i even buy their sequels...

I have Bravely Default (never played it) but i bought Bravely Second...

I have Xenoblade Chronicles (on Wii, never played it) but i bought the port on 3DS and X on WiiU ....never played them...

But i'll get around to it one day....

I don't have a Switch yet... but I just ordered this (Nin Nin Game got restock and at the best price I've seen online)

Praise be to region free.

Indeed, and I believe this sore sticking point about Nintendo on the previous two generations hasn't exactly been in their favour. Wii was region-locked when PS3 wasn't and 360 wasn't either, at least for most games. Then Wii U AND 3DS were when everything else wasn't, so it was time they got up-to-date on that front. If shortages of import copies on import sites are any indication, those copies do sell too! I'm pretty sure the initial shipment of Setsuna was sold out eventually and they had to issue another print quickly. A friend of mine imported it so I got to try it and it's a charming old school RPG too, I enjoyed my couple hours with it. Hopefully now, more shipments of Switch are going to leave Nintendo's warehouses (with Joy-Cons already fixed with conductive foam ) and I can get my own too, in the near future.

Hmmm although we in Europe weren't so bad off with the Wii's region locking, we still got a lot of the heavy hitters come through. 

I can't think of anything i really wanted on the Wii that never made it to Europe anyway.

Lol, nope! None of those tickle my fancy! I'm glad we got Xenoblade, Last story and Pandora's Tower though, I think the US missed out of those.

With that said I'd probably get I am Setsuna if it was in stores over here. I am not importing it though...

I believe they got them eventually, but in more limited quantities than we did, and like exclusive to gamestop in the case of xenoblade i think. They didnt get Project Zero 2 though.

Snake Pass (Switch)

It's really good, get it!

Better late than never ! It should be delivered next Tuesday !

Looks a little slow for my liking but admitedly it looks pretty fun. I reckon I can hold out until Yooka-Laylee though!

Nice, Rudy! Did you get the US version of Zelda? I prefer that box art so much more than the one we got... Wish it was reversible. The reverse of ours is Link climbing a mountain, which isn't bad, but man, it's not like us to get the worse box art compared to the US.

No plans for a physical release I presume? It does look really good, it makes me think of old Rareware in looks and sound.

It does feel like old Rare, for sure. Even has a soundtrack by David Wise.

I've been wanting Pokken Tournament for quite sometime now...I had been hoping that it would become a Switch port but the price for the WiiU copy kept creeping up so I've finally bit the bullet.

I found Perfect Dark for $10 (AU), I have never seen it that cheap before so I picked it up on a whim!
