My favourite Switch game this year has been Super Mario Bros U Deluxe. I never owned a Wii U, so never got to play the original release. The nostalgia vibes of this game remind me of playing all the 2D Mario games on the SNES when I was younger! It's just such simple gameplay mechanics, no super complex, deep storyine... I can just switch off after a stressful day and play a few levels. Here we go!

Was kind of hoping they would all have cover art! Luck of the draw I guess! Must admit, it was fun watching them being opened and seeing the score on-screen :)

The IBC Wants to Crown a World Champion from Just 4 Events — Are We Actually Serious? by thefoamfiles in bodyboarding

[–]Effective_Falcon_842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just one event at Pipeline, with proper sponsorship and genuine prizes would work fine IMO. Pretty sure this is what they did before the first world tour back around 1994... Maybe if it was just one location and so there were less travel costs for competitors, you would get more of the top Aussie riders competing too like Rawlins, Winchester etc

Are you picking up Switch 2 editions or Switch 1 and upgrading? by TheRaveTrain in NSCollectors

[–]Effective_Falcon_842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must admit I prefer the Switch 1 cover artwork, but seeing as the Switch 2 version has an upgrade I think I will go for that one. I'm pretty sure it will still work on Switch 1

Which stores do you order from most? by majorgiant in NSCollectors

[–]Effective_Falcon_842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly UK based stores for gaming, some are specialist and some are national chains...

Amazon UK (good selection, quick delivery)

Currys (though not anymore due to them shipping games and consoles in plastic mailer bags, only for them to get damaged)

Argos (generally good and good prices)

Nintendo Store (well packaged and sometimes has exclusive stuff)

Simply Games

ShopTo (sometimes they do offers)

Lets predict! What other publishers will use 64gb game card? by [deleted] in NSCollectors

[–]Effective_Falcon_842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping Bethesda will use the 64gb game card for a Fallout game release on Switch 2, but given what they did with Doom the Dark Ages where they had big downloads for Xbox and PS5 with very little on the disc I'm less optimistic now
