    got nothing in smyths :(

    I had a pre order in Smyths the last few months, I got the key ring - the two young lads spent the day fighting over who got to keep it!

    This was the game I was most looking forward to in 2019. Spent a good few hours at it today and I have to say I’m not disappointed. Worth the wait

    Looking forward to getting stuck started tonight, hearing nothing but great things. Nintendo does it again!

    Cidonalad is loving it, looks fantastic.

    I'm finding the aiming on my flashlight a little odd. Seems to move really slowly horizontally but goes mad twitchy when aiming up the way.

    What's the best way to have the movement set when vacuuming? One just seems to let you move in a straight line and you use the right stick to steer or the other option lets you move fully?

    Loved the animation when Luigi goes stiff as a board when scared :)

    Well, I'm incredibly impressed. Whichever team put this together just released the best looking game on Switch. This is the best argument for locking to 30fps I have seen recently, especially compared with the stuttery mess of Link's Awakening. Plays great, great animation, funny, gorgeous lighting, cutscenes I wouldn't believe were in-engine if not for the aliasing and mid-quality ambient occlusion, I could go on. Early contender for GOTY for me.

    Plus Smyths came through, 50 euro with this cool keychain that can join the rest of my gachas

    How’d you get in smyths for €50? I essentially lost the €5 discount because they reduced the price by €5 anyway

    Didn’t get a key ring either :)

    Pre-order. Paid 5, with 45 to go. I believe Pokemon is the same which is a crazy price. They could obviously charge much more. Steelbook with that one.

    My one complaint so far is the dark light on X such a pain in the *** to hold it and try moving around should be in place of the boost or jump button.

    You can also activate it by holding L+R, if that's any help.

    Yeah, I'm not loving the controls, seem very arbitrary

    Got another email from Nintendo just saying that they know my preorder hasn't shipped yet and they're looking into it.

    Also just press L for the plunger thingy with better aim

    The virtual boo is pure genius! :)

    Played two hours this morning and the best thing I can say about the game is it just puts a smile on your face when you play. It's so charming.

    the boss on the hotel shop level is freakin hillarious, laughed really hard.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,067 ✭✭✭safetyboy


    still finding the controls awkward, not sure if its the aiming or as soon as you touch the right stick he spins around


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,821 ✭✭✭✭TitianGerm


    Just as a warning to others. If your other half is playing the game and doing quite well don't tell them that all the hoovering they do around the house was good practice for the game :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    I was saying to mine that who else would make a game so full of charm, that's essentially about hoovering...

    Starting the game now!
    What's the best way to control the game? Pro controller or Joycon?

    I noticed that too.
    I don't ever remember him talking that way on the GameCube but been ages since I played LM1


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    That's the way that character has always spoken!
