Nintendo Switch 2 stuff

WHAT

 

[straightorbroken]

Birdo had better be back.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh good god. I'm drooling for Mario Kart after that.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

No but look at this CUNTY HAT!

 

[PercyPig]

And the CUNTY EYES

 

[PercyPig]

“Vacation”

 

[straightorbroken]

Completely forgot to order a pro controller and they're sold out on Nintendo's own store and Amazon says delivery in October. They don't really look any different from the existing ones I guess.

 

[straightorbroken]

Got my pro-controller. Nintendo store pre-orders back up.

 

[straightorbroken]

My order has been shipped!

Hopefully I get it as early tomorrow as possible.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Currently refreshing the DPD app constantly waiting to get a delivery window. It's in Uddingston right now, just pop along the motorway toot suite please

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Mine is due 11.31-12.31

 

[Jacques]

I was unable to get a pre-order, so didn't expect to be able to just pop onto the Argos site this morning and reserve one for pick up from 4pm. Buzzing!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Between 3pm and 4pm for my delivery slot

 

[straightorbroken]

So unfortunately Nintendo are now using Royal Mail via their store. Mine is due 1pm-4pm.

 

[ILL ADVISED]

 

[straightorbroken]

Just waiting on MKW to download. 40 minutes left. I probably should have done the Switch to Switch 2 transfer stuff later to have sped this along.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

HURRY THE FUCK UP FRANK

 

[straightorbroken]

Have Emma Bunton's What Took You So Long playing in the background whilst you stand at the door waiting on him taking his picture of your box.

 

[VoR]

My fingers are itching, but I'm not *that* fussed on Mario Kart to justify the cost. Any word on when the first big open world Mario or Zelda release is coming?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Frank has BEEN!

We'll probably hear about it at the end of summer, you'd think they'd have one of them ready for Christmas

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I would die for this cow

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I MEAN LOOK AT HER

 

[Tisch]

"1. Cow"

 

[straightorbroken]

Loving this so much. Was loving free roam mode, but want to do the cups at least all in 50cc before doing more challenges.

Frank has BEEN!

I like that you captured the DPD van too.

 

[ILL ADVISED]

I still haven't played as have to wait for the husband to get home!

 

[funky]

Is Mario definitely getting an open world?

I would not be able to cope

That cow is super cute

 

[straightorbroken]

The cow somewhat dancing when you press L is quite neat. Home now. Guess I won't be doing the gym today at all then!

Quite excited for the DLC possibilities - surely it will just be an entire area/tour for things like Zelda if they go there (and I hope they do).

Oh that was the character I went for straight away

 

[PercyPig]

Has no one got Donkey Kong or is that not out yet? (@VoR I think that’s what you’re looking for)

 

[straightorbroken]

Done all the cups 50cc and the first one at 150cc.

If anyone is playing MKW online:

SW-8132-8351-3828

On a sidebar: YouTube is currently not working, but apparently Nintendo is trying to fix this. I always go to bed with it on!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I've dragged myself away from the cow at last, for someone else serving just as much CUNT

What a cunt

 

[straightorbroken]

No hardware or software sales figures yet, but UK software charts look better than expected NS2-wise. BotW made #2 in the OG Switch's UK launch week, but it was also up against Horizon Zero Dawn.

 

[straightorbroken]

3.5m in 4 days. Nintendo's fastest selling hardware. For comparison, PS5 shipped 3.4m in its first month.

 

[straightorbroken]

DK Direct tomorrow of course:



Shame we're not getting an e3 type Direct, which I hope can still happen. They probably want to maximise attention on this game, which I must admit I'm not particularly sold on (throw in Dixie Kong demolishing rocks with her helicopter hair and I'd be sold though).

 

[straightorbroken]

Yeah, that's not for me sadly.

 

[straightorbroken]

Actually the shape-shifting looks kind of fun. The co-playing/share thing with a player 2 on an OG Switch I'll need more details on - that's a great feature.

 

[straightorbroken]

Ok I've pre-ordered.
