My sister just asked me for the animal crossing switch. I’m assuming they’re sold out never to be produced again because Nintendo?

If you're in NYC, the Nintendo store will have em.

Is the Chaos;Head game significantly better than the cartoon? Because I watched the Chaos;Head cartoon and it was not great.

Is it me or has Nintendo forgotten to tell us what's coming up? It's been quite a dry period for first party games since...Luigi's mansion? I don't care for animal crossing, what's next..!?

Also Reggie never deserved his place in the triumvirate that also included Iwata and Miyamoto, those guys actually had good ideas and made fun games. Reggie just seems to be a businessman who can also take a joke. Not exactly legend material.

Reggie is responsible for Wii Sports being a pack in title. Who knows if the Wii would have done as well in America without that

Reggie's had some say in things about what the company should do, and that was probably one of the biggest ones. No Wii Sports inclusion with the Wii sounds so utterly nuts to me since that title was a huge part of its launch's success.

I haven't been able to access the eshop (UK/EU) since yesterday evening.

Anyone else out there suffering this problem? It also fails the upload/download speed part of the network test.

Tried at work and at home to the same result.

Luigis mansion question. If I see a chest/ruby etc. does that mean I can get it right now somehow or are there ones I need to come back to later? There’s some I just have no idea how to get .

If you have Gooigi unlocked, you have almost every ability in the game at your disposal. So you can get every gem from the get-go aside from one on 4F, which requires something else from later in the game.

i finished my new game+ of witcher 3 and it was decent enough tho I didnt bother with a buncha the side quests from the first round, but got a 2nd and happier ending to the main game.


if I play it through again to enjoy the third route it'll probably be on a PC so I can have mods solve the problem of applying oils I already have or repairing weapons I always had t he means to repair and etc



but I absolutely got the hours I wanted out of the thing and now im ready for a great next time sink thing.

There was some planned downtime yesterday but that was only for a couple of hours.
Maybe try turning the console off completely and on again?

GameStop is too rigid of a company to allow Reggie to do anything that might help them. This is purely a PR move.

Reggie isn't coming on board as an executive officer, he's joining the board. His job will be to hold the executive officers accountable. GameStop doesn't have to "allow" him to do anything, in fact it's the opposite, he'll be one of the people "allowing" or not allowing GameStop to do things.

retail is boned when the world of paying rent is super inflated and out of reach if its to be connected to the actual economy

doubtful gamestop doesn't liquidate itself down to a small amount of stores because unless of an actual revolution theres no room for margins that the extractors will overcharge on usurious interest

Reggie literally told Nintendo not to change their logo when they were trying to alter it in the 90s for hipness or whatever. I trust Reggie's judgment when it comes to general business decisions, and if nothing else, he can help them cut their losses the most effectively.

I mean, I still have no intention of shopping at GameStop, but I would love to see positive change for my friends and acquaintances that do.

I bought Unravel 2 on an impulse from the eshop about a week ago

It's really good, guys, and insanely good for the price.

I realize many of you have already played this on your Other Box but for those of you like me with only a Switch this gen, time to check it out.
