    So I finally bought the Pro controller, and now feel stupid not buying it on release. It's so much better, just the analogue sticks alone make a difference. There's so much more movement, meaning you can be a lot more precise. It's also the most comfy controller I've held. £60 is still a lot, but I can see why people here kept saying it's worth it.

    At the moment I'm playing a lot of Minecraft with the Mario skin pack. I only bought the PC version like 6 months ago, so unlike most it still feels fresh to me.

    Great. Another artificial shortage made for hype, followed by 3rd party price hikes :banana:

    I look immensely forward to selling my one on ebay if my pre order does indeed come through.

    Ordered!:D It´s going to sit nicely alongside my mini NES. The only thing i wish it was better is the games list. 21 is a very short number for a console like the SNES. And omissions like Final Fight, Chrono Trigger, Turricane, World Heroes and Super Pang are hard to accept. And Super Pang is specially hard to take. I love that game and wasted hours playing it! Why did you exclude Super Pang Nintendo, why...

    Considering how i'd never heard of it until right now i'm gonna say no.

    I think part of the issue was, certain amount of launch consoles were broken, as with every launch of everything, and people affected by it went and posted this stuff and it just got upvoted and reported left right centre.

    People with no issues aren't going to post and aren't a news story.

    I maybe getting a switch a lot sooner than I anticipated. I maybe getting one on October 27th because that is when Mario Odyssey is being released.

    Didn't even realize that Odyssey was getting released that early. Hmm.... looks like i'm going to have a game-packed Fall this year. Splatoon 2, Destiny 2, Super Mario Odyssey..... whatever other neat games might be coming out that i've momentarily forgotten about..... mostly because Destiny 2 will probably be a total black hole of time for me...

    Yeah I was checking Amazon one time and decided to check and see if there was a release date for the game.

    So far I've bought-

    Zelda
    Mariokart
    Mighty Gunvolt Burst
    Graceful Explosion Machine
    Shantae: Half Genie Hero
    Bomberman (while it was on sale)
    Shovel Knight (Regret this purchase, really feel it's completely over-rated)
    Mr Shifty

    More or less finished with these games, apart from the local multiplayer aspect. Looking forward to splatoon 2.
