    I played through both shenmue games and they are both just awful. No idea where the hype for those games came through. Rose tinted nostalgia I imagine. All those sonic games are also terrible, as is Phantasy Star. I'm not keen on fighting games either.

    I've always been a Nintendo over Sega fan but :

    I own them, both of them for the DC and the remastered edition for the Xbox and found them to be terribly boring.
    I own them because, as a gamer, I'm told I should but I'll never actually play them at this stage, ever!

    I started getting this weird problem since the weekend where my switch keeps waking itself from sleep. If I sleep it and put ti in the dock it wakes, and changes the input on the tv to it's input....very annoying.
    Doing a full power down and restart fixes the issue but it's happened a few times now.

    Anyone else getting this?

    I've seen a heap of posts about it on /r/nintendoswitch, hasn't happened to me though.

    Do you have Minecraft installed? It seems like there is a bug in Minecraft that causes screenshots to be taken randomly, the only way to stop it is to fully power off the switch but once you start Minecraft again it starts the bug again. Minecraft doesn't need to be kept open for the switch to keep taking screenshots, you can open other games after Minecraft and it will continue randomly

    Sonic Forces: Custom Hero Trailer

    A Sonic game allowing you to make your own original characters feels like part of reality just folded in on itself.

    Sonic Mania looks good though! Granted thats practically a fan project but still!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,452 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Ubisoft say they've an unannounced Switch game in development.

    Sorry, I should say this information came from Ubisoft's investor meeting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭MilesMorales1


    Eugh, just that rubbish sounding Mario/Rabbids game I guess. Unless it's Assassins Creed!

    Yep, that makes sense too, it's only since I bought Minecraft for my son.
    Wonder if they'll patch it soon, it's pretty annoying!

    I am getting my son a switch for his birthday

    I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but is it ruled out that if I set his up his with the same account as my own switch can we share digital games like, on PS4?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭MilesMorales1


    I only just realised, downloads are attached to the account/NNID, not the console!

    Afaik you can only have your games on one account that's active.
    You can decide that the active account is on one of the two Switch consoles, but not both, so you won't be able to have the digital content available on both at the same time.
    There is the potential for this to change, but as of right now it's not a runner.

    I'd be excited for this if Stardew Valley wasn't also on the way. It beats Harvest Moon at its own game.

    I'm going to guess that the Ubisoft title will have towers to unlock areas of the map... just like BotW most other Ubisoft games! ;)

    No. Your account can only be active on one switch console.

    Thumper tomorrow.
    Rime on the 31st.
    Arms on June 16th
    Cave Story+ on June 20th

    Yeah, whoever is curator of the eshop has maintained quality, certainly if this is maintained in terms of standards as well as quantity, it'll be a nice selection by Xmas this year.
    The Neo Geo selection in particular is a who's who of great titles, Puzzle Bobble /2 please!
