Nice one!
I've got Owlboy on my wishlist to buy at some point, it looks so good. I haven't heard of Salt & Sanctuary before.
Just going on Amazon I'm seeing so many indie 2d platformers, it's great

Isn't it obvious? ❤❤❤So you're happy with your investment then?
Once you go Nintendo, there's, erm, nowhere else to go
Mans best friend was dog once upon a time...That all changed when the NES came to and the rest is history. Even though I preferred Sonic to Mario
Never played Diablo 3, how good is the single player campaign?Yep can't wait for this! Currently obsessed with Hollow Knight - this will be my next obsession
Anybody playing Dead Cells in the Switch. Heard there's some frame rate issues. I want to get if for the Switch as opposed to PS4, but that's putting me off. For a game like this a steady frame rate is paramount.
Woo! https://variety.com/2018/gaming/new...t-deaths-gambit-physical-editions-1202909029/Yeah it looks really good, just waiting for a physical version
Slightly random
Hollow Knight is amazing.
With that said, nearly threw my Switch in a fit of rage last night.
Had 1700 geo and was saving to buy a lantern. I only need another 100 but as I was farming I came across a new area... needless to say I died at a tricky platforming section and the game decided to place my soul BEYOND the platforming section where I died.
Needless to say... I died again trying to retrieve it.

There's a bit of backlash against From Software who announced they are releasing a bundle with the 3 souls game on the same day they are releasing the remastered version for the switch.
Yeah I've had my soul stay in boss areas as well which is a bit daunting. At least often you can get the soul before the boss kills you again, so you have a chance of eventually defeating the boss without losing geo.
Uhm ... maybe a bit too late but there's actually a way to retrieve it without killing your shadow.
Just bought Okami HD in the Nintendo eShop for about £15, a steal for such a good game, highly recommended for those who didn't play it on the Wii and are looking for a Zelda substitute.
Just seen that Hollow Knight is going on sale on the eShop today.
It’s honestly looking to make my top games of all time at the moment, definitely recommend that anyone that ain’t bought it yet, does so.

What makes it great?
It really gets the feeling of being a tiny cog in a huge, depressing world across - very similar to Dark Souls in that way.
Saw a review, looks a lot like Castlevania - Aria of Sorrow, but I'm not sure if it has a leveling system?
Well, you can upgrade your equipment/health and buy new charms - basically skill enhancements like gain more money from enemies, have more striking range, stronger spells ... although the amount of those that you can have active at the same time is limited.
So not a classic RPG level system but there are ways to get stronger.
Not fully for me then. As much as i love Aria of sorrow I never loved the other metroidvania games. Might pick it up in the far future when my backlog is smaller.
It's incredible that a game with this much content and a price of 15$ is going on sale 2 months in!
The art style and sound design are both incredible.
The world is huge, with lots of interesting and charming characters and some pretty in-depth lore (which I don’t quite understand yet as I’m only about half way through).
Gameplay has all the great elements from your typical Metroidvania games and gives a great sense of progression, pieced together with a Dark Souls style difficulty curve and some really tough (but great) boss battles.
There is absolutely tons to do and collect, and it’s very easy to get lost, especially when you enter a new area and don’t have a map.
Hollow Knight is incredible - but bloody hard. It's actually putting me off finishing the game.
Diablo 3 comes to switch! Can't wait!
Anyone else really excited about tomorrows nindies? I'm hoping we get release dates for No More Heroes, Child of Light, Hyper Light Drifter, Wargroove, and many new announcements hopefully, hopefully they annojnce hd remakes for No More Heroes 1 & 2.
And with any luck, Streets of Rage 4
So I’ve completed Hollow Knight.
Still have a shit ton of stuff to do but it makes my top 5 games I think.
One thing I want to find out more about is the lore/story. Could anyone expand on this without spoiling anything beyond the the first/most basic ending? I assume the other endings may help explain things a bit but I really can’t piece anything together at the moment.

Guys, if I buy Smash, will we say some organization on caf of some sort of play sessions? Thats the mean reason I wanted the discord channel to work.
Yip I adored it too, could easily be in my top 5 games of all time.
Here's my very brief and rough understanding of the events which lead to the start of the game. You may find out some of this while going for alternate endings, but it's hard to differentiate.
There was a queen who sort of enslaved the bugs of Hallownest. The pale king showed up and gave the bugs sentience, so they started worshiping him. The queen got mad and started to infect the bugs and turned them feral again. The king used void to create an empty vessel to lock away the queen. The vessel (aka The Hollow Knight) was kept in the black egg and 3 seals were placed upon it. However the infection started to spread again, the king disappeared and Hollownest was basically abandoned. For some unknown reason the knight (aka the player) is drawn back to Hallownest, which sets in motion the events of the game.
I think it's my 2nd favorite game this year after God of War so far.
Live event.
I remember seeing footage of that Untitled Goose Game nearly a year ago. They need to think of a name for it.
I'm a bit disappointed, expected a lot more tbh, hopefully a full direct is closer than we think.
I've read some positive reviews of the Monster Hunter thing for the Switch. But I tried the demo for a little bit and the controls just felt really heavy (it didn't help that I couldn't see a tutorial anywhere so I had no idea what I was doing). Anyway, what's the deal with this game? I've never played a Monster Hunter game before.
Finally picked up Mario Kart while it’s 33% off on the store, along with Dead Cells. Having a blast finishing off Inside at the minute too.
God I love this console.
God I love this console.
Deepnest is horrible on Hollow Knight. Not sure where to go. I ended up going down some paths that were pitch black so I've just farmed the 1800 geo to get the lantern.
Firmware 6.0.0 leaked, not much new on the user front, 4 new Captain Toad avatars, cloud saves, nes and snes controllers support added, eshop overhaul, thats about it, no messaging system added, no themes, no web browser or new web apps.
35 mins direct coming tomorrow for Switch AND 3DS.
Just give me animal crossing so I can wank myself into a stupor
NO! But they'll give you a port of NSMBU though, YAYYY!
