    I was playing 1080° recently and it's still fantastic, I can't wait to give it a whirl when I get a chance.

    Yes, Waverace and 1080° are the games I am most wanting to see on the Switch or whatever Nintendo make next, those games were fantastic.

    Excitetrucks on the Wii was pretty great fun too, it'd be cool to see it updated and available to a new generation of Nintendo owners

    Ah, Killer Instinct - a great opportunity to look back and go "wait, why did I think this was cool at the time?" 😁

    On the plus side, I've read good stuff about Blast Corps so that should be interesting to try out.

    I still occasionally listen to the Killer Cuts album. It's on Spotify. Probably still have the cd at my parents'.

    Lot of people pissed online that Rare Replay Switch release is now even further away with these drops for NSO, I would love to play some Conker games again the gameboy one was great. Bad Fur Day would be nice too.

    Blast Corps has aged really well, and the Switch edition is better in all the right places, such as sharper visuals.

    It still feels like milling Tonka toys around a sandbox, which is still cool

    Never got a chance to play the original, so looking forward to giving it a go this time around.

    I have three Nintendo Online family slots available for about 8 or 9 quid if anyone is interested. I contacted some of the people from last year here but couldn't find the details of others.

    Calling all speed demons!

    The Game Boy Advance classic F-Zero: Maximum Velocity races onto Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack this Friday, 29th March!




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,048 ✭✭✭Mr.Saturn


    One of the more accessible F-Zeros, as I recall. Granted, still unforgiving but the layout on the GBA meant getting to grips with it was a little more merciful than the likes of its SNES forebear.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,811 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    It would be sweet if they brought F-Zero Climax to the GBA online library, I have a repro copy for my GBA and it is fantastic
