    Don't know if it's been mentioned on another thread but they are doing a daily prize on nintendo.com.

    I would wear it to work in a heartbeat.

    That said, I work with kids so my sense of style might be skewed.

    Tried it earlier on my phone and it just kept failing to open a new page.

    I've also very childishly changed Links name a couple of times.

    Ah the conundrum I face at the start of every new game - pick a hilarious name (usually 'sh1thead' or just 'sh1tty') or engage sincerely from the offset.

    Always seem to regret my choice later regardless :(

    It's not easy to take the story seriously when every other character, be they fairy, skull kid, god or deku tree calls you "Dong Stretcher 5000"

    Can't seem to preorder Hyrule Warriors in Smyths. Anyone know is it all booked out or (more likely) what am I doing wrong?

    Mmm Christmas holiday games. Mmmmm.

    Looks like it just can’t be pre ordered anymore. Think that normally happens a few days before release. Should be able to do click and collect and possibly home delivery on Friday.

    You could try geizhals.eu (skinflint.co.uk) and if they don't deliver here (some do, and some deliver to PW/PM etc), you can use mailboxde.com - I reckon it might be about €17 to Ireland.

    So may be about €110 delivered.

    Was thinking ...

    People complain that the Switch home screen is too simple and they want folders etc etc ... I think it's absolutely fine !

    I try and use the xbox home screen and I die a little ...

    Consoles should be Simple ... plug and play ....

    Completely agree. It's the same as people saying they want Netflix and apps like that on Switch. I want the console to be my place for games. I can already watch Netflix on a tonne of different devices.

    Damn, that nintendo switch online icon sticks out like a sore thumb :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,732 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Ah it's not too bad. Still, watch for 11.0.1 in a few days. :)

    The NSO icon on the Switch. People seem to hate it (it's red, despite your theme).
    I expect a firmware update to blend it better in the next few days.
