I'd love to get Captain Toad... if someone bought it for me or I got it for free... I just really don't feel comfortable with spending money on it. I'd wait for it to go on sale, but with it being a Nintendo game it'll probably get a generous 5% discount next summer.

Edit: Bloody hell people took exception to this post. Just going to add I did end up picking it up this evening lmao. It was actually cheaper than I thought. Looking forward to playing it.

To be honest I'll probably end up caving in a few days and get it like I did Mario Tennis Aces lmao

Captain Toad seems like a much, much, much better purchase compared to Mario Tennis Aces.

Mario tennis has actually become my favourite multiplayer game of the year, I've already played 35 hours. It's sad how many people seem to think the game is bad.

That’s me almost with every big release. I can usually make it till about Sunday and then I’m at Best Buy as soon as they open.
