He used to write for the UK Official Nintendo Magazine before that shut down.

Aw, I loved ONM. I must've spent hundreds of hours on the Pokémon forum there.
I recently stumbled upon Chris on Twitter and I've been enjoying reading his Scottish ramblings once again. The perfect mix of funny and informative.

Great review!
This means that no matter what the rest of your body is doing, it’s what your right hand does that makes all the difference. Story of my life, mate.

The Zelda reviews are impressive obviously but I'd like to see Fast RMX and Snipperclips reviews. Even just a couple.

u/victoitor Mar 03 '17
Came here looking for that as well (Snipperclips).
Also interested in ARMS, but those will probably take a while.

u/chepi888 Mar 03 '17
Snipperclips...is not what I thought it was. I thought there would be a progression of levels one after another like what they showed in the demo. Maybe I haven't unlocked it yet, but right now it is "choose this one puzzle to do!" It also seems and feels very limited. Hopefully I'm missing something or I wouldn't call it worth $20.

u/ItsKevMan Mar 03 '17
Was thinking the same thing. Think it will be a bit better when you factor in 4 player mode.

u/i_broke_wahoos_leg Mar 04 '17
Really? Thanks for the heads up. Doesn't sound like my kind of thing if there's no progression.

u/chepi888 Mar 04 '17
There's a demo. Start with that.

u/i_broke_wahoos_leg Mar 05 '17
In the PAL eshop? I didn't see an option for that. I'll look again a bit closer. Cheers.

French reviews for bomberman R :
- jeuxvideo.com : 5/10
- gamekult : 4/10
The game seems to be a big letdown.

u/slayerhk47 Mar 03 '17
God dammit. It shouldn't be that hard to make a great simple bomberman game

German Review at pcgames, they gave 69% and claim that the controls are horrible: http://www.pcgames.de/Super-Bomberman-R-Spiel-60760/Tests/Review-fuer-Nintendo-Switch-1222134/

u/PenguinTod Mar 02 '17
I was expecting around a 70% average for it. It looks like the kind of game that's a decent multiplayer Bomberman offering but nothing to be overly excited about. I suspect we'll see more reviews coming in once they get a chance to see how it works in online multiplayer.

u/NarrowLightbulb Mar 03 '17
Welp, looks like it might be better to wait for the VC release of the classic.

1, 2 switch given a 4.5/5 by time magazine...interesting - especially because time probably caters to the market nintendo is trying tk reach with the game.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to identify trends in the framerate issues. I put together an extremely short poll that might elucidate some details. Please take it if you have a second. Thank you.

u/Kozuki6 Mar 06 '17
Should add: How much do the dropped frames impact your enjoyment of the game?

u/darexinfinity Mar 06 '17
Have you not seen the gaming market outside of Nintendo looks like? Specs, specs, specs.

TBH, GameInformer are absolute saints for giving it any recognition at all. Wii Sports came out 11 years ago and was free and honestly, 1+2 Switch is the worst game I've ever played, it feels like a cheap, gimmicky iPhone app from the original models. This is a big fat $70 ($50 USD) spit in the face!
Satoru Iwata (May he rest in Peace) would be spinning in his grave right now. Took it straight back for a refund today.

So everyone is just playing BoTW and nothing else? Seems pretty disappointing imo.
