    Monster Hunter of the Wild. Strong start.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,443 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Two Monster Hunter games next year. Nice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,317 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Hades today. Well that's my weekend taken care of.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,443 ✭✭✭✭Mr E

    Ori Will of the Wisps! Today!

    Almost makes up for no Mass Effect Trilogy.

    God it's too easy to spend money on the Switch. Hades and Ori for me straight away now.

    Ori wow that's a nice surprise


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,443 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Don't know much about Hades but it's Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam. Looks like my kind of game too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 796 ✭✭✭Eduard Khil


    Holy duck the Iam8bit collection is $149.99

    The third game from the people that did Bastion and Transistor. Kind of their take on a Greek mythology Diablo.

    Any price on Ori? Might wait to see how it runs on the Switch though


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,713 ✭✭✭geotrig


    slightly interested in this as well as i found it very laggy at some points on the xbone when it came out

    €30 according to Nintendo Life. The first game was great, played on xbox.
    Definitely interested in this.

    Same; that's a nice surprise. I guess SuperGiant's migration team was well ahead of the curve when the Switch announcement was made.

    Still no news of Silksong though. Team Cherry certainly don't seem beholden to even a dripfeed of info.

    Same. I loved the first. I wonder if there is a physical release outside of that collectors thing. Much prefer to have the game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,804 ✭✭✭skerry


    Just seen that there was a new Monster Hunter announced. This makes me happy


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,073 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Wonder will Nintendo Life have the other reveals for Mass Effect Resident Evil and anything else not seen in the mini today.

    €25 from SA.

    Haven't finished the blind forest... Loads up will of the wisp.... Ayiii

    Hades looks a great game (IGN etc but a good review actually)



  • Registered Users Posts: 14,014 ✭✭✭✭Corholio


    Collectors Edition for Monster Hunter Rise announced too.

    https://twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/1306613823684608000?s=20

    It's interesting there wasn't a console bundle announced too, for something like an exclusive Monster Hunter it would have seemed a certainty, especially for Japan. It still may happen of course, but I wonder if it may launch around the rumoured new Switch 'revision' next year instead.

    Pokemon Direct today at 2pm Irish time info so far seems to be centred on the Crown Tundra dlc.

    At this stage I think I'd be happy enough to not see any more of Age of Calamity. Don't want all the surprises ruined.


  • Registered Users Posts: 796 ✭✭✭Eduard Khil


    Pikmin 3 demo out tonight


  • Registered Users Posts: 132 ✭✭Satturnfalls


    I hope there is a real full direct before christmas , otherwise it looks like age of calamity is going to be their xmas offerings this year

    Pikmin 3 demo out tonight

    What's this now?

    Is Pikmin3 coming to Switch??


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,777 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Yep!

    Pikmin 3 Deluxe out October 30th.
    And you can transfer your progress from the demo over to the full game

    Son of a...!

    Can I transfer the fact that I played the whole thing to completion on WiiU during lockdown cos I didn't know this was coming out?

    Flip sake.

    (Although I won't be close to having finished Mario by then, and I'll buy it anyway, so this is tremendous news!)

    Outstanding news for the millions of people who haven't played it. As a lifelong Nintendophile, I would rank this higher than several of the 3D Zeldas and Marios.

    It's been rumoured by Eurogamer for ages and anything eurogamer gets is from the leaky ship called Nintendo Europe and always bang on the money.

    But still sucks.

    At least you got to play one of the best games of the last decade!

    Having never played a Pikmin game before, this demo was my first exposure to it. A simple 3 tutorial missions with very little meat to it - Is the main game challenging? Is the demo a good indication of the core mechanics? Tempted to just get the two games for 100€ and pick up this and Hyrule Warriors.
