Picked up wreckfest n tmnt cowabunga collection before the sale ended.. both seem cool so far

Wreckfest is cool but it's very one-dimensional. You were right to wait for a sale.

It's pretty fun.. racing games are pretty one dimensional in general.. this seems less one dimensional than others so far

Are you sure? The cars get a little faster and they add more laps per race as you progress, and that's it. The environments from the start are recycled throughout. They rely on the fancy damage physics to carry the whole game, and it's simply not enough.

Own five of those, but don’t think I’ll buy the other five, even on a discount.

Baten Kaitos remaster is something very intriguing.

They didn't announce the Zelda Switch? Images leaked from so many sources, I thought it was a guarantee. I was going to grab it, I guess I'll preorder the Collector's Edition instead.

This Metroid Prime remaster looks great and has legit 5.1 surround sound. Some of the best music/sound design in a game.

Can't say enough about this remaster of Metroid Prime. They really undersold how much work they put into it.

I just got a new oled switch and was worried saw something articles saying it’s a new switch being launched for TOTK with upgraded everything and older ones wouldn’t be able to play it. But then read a piece saying Nintendo are ramping up production of the switch in anticipation for TOTK


Which is it do you think?
Hope I can play it on this one

It's the OLED Switch with a Zelda paint job - no performance enhancements. It's definitely legit. The new symbol that appears on the Collector's Edition, appears on the old leaked photos (looks like an egg with wings). Supposedly, this will be announced at the next Nintendo Direct.

Mad part is my boyfriend has the logo tattooed on the back of his neck n got it just randomly in Spain on holiday. He’s no idea what it means. And doesn’t care but always asks me why I’m playing that game.

It’s funny

"Sid Meier's Civilization VI (Switch)

Another entry in the 'more screen real estate is never a bad thing' category, being able to play full-fat, proper Civ while you're out and about is brilliant on any Switch you happen to have to hand, but the OLED screen lets you survey your territory and spy every last detail just that bit more easily. Mr Meier's series has never looked better on a Nintendo console."

Have played this for over 700 hours on the switch, so look forward to this.

Also:

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Okami HD
Arcade Archives Donkey Kong
Ikaruga
Tetris Effect: Connected
Metroid Dread
Splatoon 2
Streets of Rage 4

and more on the links.
