Same here, just got an email from Target saying my order had been cancelled. Just ordered this morning about 2.5 hours ago. Shame, would've been a great price.

Yeah, great price and it's an excellent game.  I bought it when it came out.   At first it felt a bit like a letdown as I didn't immediately get how to do everything... but once it clicked it became an amazing experience.  The sense of speed is intoxicating.    If you want a slightly arcade racing game where you go from point A to B with  the option to take the occasional shortcut using real cars... this is the best the switch has to offer.

Over on another site I frequent, those that took advantage have had their orders cancelled by target as this was a pricing error in their system.

I got an email saying that my order was ready for pickup while I was at work today, but I ordered the game at 6 a.m. when I got up for work, so I think that they had already charged my card by the time they fixed it.  But I love finding these types of glitches when they happen.  :bouncy:

Streaming some WarioWare: Get It Together (link) if you want to see it in action.

 

Edit: Here's the archive. Apologies for some of the tech issues.

I was wondering if you could use Bluetooth headphones and that answers my question. I've been playing re zero and I put my wired headphones in because of als voice work being so quiet.

Will Eternal Darkness ever get remastered or will I have to find a GameCube to play it again one of these days? 😁

Anyone else having issues pairing their Switch with AirPod pros? Doesn’t seem to see the AirPods.

I'd like to give a shoutout to Warlock of Firetop Mountain for $3. It's a really well done old-school dungeon crawler and this includes the Goblin DLC. There's a lot of value here it you like this genre.

That is one game I have always wondered how well it would hold up today.

Even though the gameplay would feel very stiff today (it was clunky even when it came out) I think it would also feel pretty novel since there's nothing like it that has been released in years. It's interesting that with all the retro games that come out year after year there isn't much that has tapped into that era of gaming, especially since we've reached a saturation point where all the retro/indie stuff is feeling so same-y. I can't say that I'm sorry that the sequel failed to get funded a few years back since I think it would have been awful but I would like to see this remastered so it's available for modern audiences. If anyone but Nintendo owned the rights it would probably at least be on Steam or GOG by now.

I'd kill for some indie Mario RPGs as that's not a tapped market to my knowledge besides the one paper Mario like title.

It'd be nice to get another game like grandia as well.

And while newer I thought the Steven universe and adventure time titles were a blast minus the bugs. I read that they made a 3rd Steven universe game but it's apple tv whatever exclusive which sucks

Paid full price for mine. Don't regret it. Would cheerfully jump on it for 30 if I didn't have it already.

I thought it was obsolete with the latest firmware but I guess it also supports voice out.

Just letting you know Steven Universe: Unleash the light is no longer an Apple exclusive and came out on switch a few months ago.

I wasn't aware of that though I'm not sure if that was the one on apple or not that I was thinking of.  As I feel like it had a different title like phantom fable or something. And going by the characters list that's different than what I recall as connie and peridot were not playable in the one I read about years ago as it took those 2 and greg out and added in bismuth and lapis.   Granted the switch version could be different than the apple one or they changed it later.  

Edit yep it seems like updates added the other party members and fusions in later like I guessed.  I wonder how differently it plays from the original version then.

 

Either way though I appreciate it as that's a new game for me to buy and play eventually. Assuming i like the look of the gameplay on youtube anyway. 

 

hmm phantom fable was another one apparently that did release around the same time.  But it doesn't have lapis or bismuth in it as party members.

Its definitely the one Attack The Light, Save the Light and Unleash the light was the trilogy. I know because I was pissed it was an apple exclusive after playing the other 2 so I kept my eye on it, now I'm waiting for it to go on sale lol

See, I'm not clear on whether the firmware enables native Bluetooth audio or just turns on support for it on a per title basis.

But the Genki works regardless.

Dang I was planning on grabbing Eastward, but forgot last night and the 10% discount is dead now. I'll just wait for a sale because I'm cheap. Looks great though.

That and a Megaman Battle Network collection would be great for the Switch. My two favorite GBA series

I know with a MMBN collection though it would get extremely repetitive as the gameplay is similar between all entries. Still fun as heck, but not stuff worth playing back to back. I liked the last 2 Castlevania GBA games though. Circle of the Moon was just OK.

I feel like they build off one another well enough that it doesn't become monotonous imo, just makes it incredibly hard to go back to the first couple of games.

 

My worry is that it's 6 games, with multiple versions of each game. Knowing Capcom they'll give them to us split into 3 different full-price collections.

Apparently, when a group of online friends of mine talked about Megaman memories, there were some surprising things I didn't know about the Battle Network series, which kinda complicates things. Such as there was only ONE version of BN3 in Japan, but then there was a updated "Black Version". It was brought over as Blue and White, so one is buggier than the other. For BN5, only one of the versions was canon, I think it was Team Protoman. So know which versions to play and sticking with canon hopefully will cut down on the game time.
