| Good news everyone I saw this morning that Shin'en announced on their twitter that a update is coming soon for Fast RMX which will add Time Attack mode and Friend Support for Online.
I started I Am Setsuna last night and done what would be sort of the tutorial before I went back to Zelda. The opening is very much in the style of FFVI which is cool, the battle system is simple yet their is some depth to it if you want. I want to go back to it but Zelda is Zelda. |

| Alright, count me back in! I'll hold off until the Friend support update releases. |

| Oh that is nice! It also let's us know that this online app won't be necessary for all games. |

| Goodto have it confirmed but most of us were already pretty sure, right? |

| It's still not like a few on there haven't been actually confirmed by the studio. I think most of us thought a Wii U game in 2018 doesn't make a lot of sense and if you watched NVC this week they had Damon Baker on, who basically said they asked everyone doing Wii U game to look at Switch instead as Wii U is done. |

| I don't think I knew, although it was likely always on the cards. Nonetheless, nice to know. |

| Has anyone checked out Blaster Master Zero yet? I'm quite tempted as I saw it's less than a tenner on the eShop. Yer man Scullion gave it a decent write-up, so I'm certainly keen to give it a look. |

| Not my cup of tea I'm afraid, Jayseph. You know what is? Snake Pass. Was utterly uninterested until I saw that David Wise was doing the soundtrack: now I'm thoroughly up for it. I'm that shallow. |

| Snake Pass doesn't look like a game for me. Based on the trailer, I reckon I'd get frustrated pretty quickly with it! |

| Watched the trailer for Snakey dude the other day. It looks and sounds cheerful enough, but I just can't envision it handling pleasantly at all. I think it'd require a strong demo to bring me aboard. |

| Sumo Digital usually make good stuff, so I've got high hopes for it. I'd agree about a strong demo bringing folk on board though - a physics-based platformer doesn't sound like the best mash-up. |

| I want to contribute here, but basically "what you guys said" - I love the idea behind it, but it looks a bit "slow". Will definitely keep an eye out though. |

| I understand we can now Pass Snakes on the Switch? Has anyone taken the python - I mean 'plunge'? |

| I've seen a couple of folks on the Twitter talking about it, but I'd like to hear from any of you guys before I consider a slither at it myself.
As Cappa said, a demo for this would have been ideal as I can't say I'm enthused on the back of the footage I've watched. |

Not actually grabbed it yet. It's on my shopping list, for when it's on offer or when I finish BotW. Not sure which'll come first... |

| It's not worth starting a thread for it, but I started Blaster Master Zero last night. Genuinely a lot of fun and shaping up to my favourite download title on Switch thus far. It's a Metroidvania mashed up with little top-down shooter sections, but it's not overwhelming me with a multitude of things I know I'll have to backtrack for to pick up. The only minor gripe I've got it with it thus far is that it's a bit easy, but that's not the worst flaw in the world. Definitely worth checking out. |

| You saying it's a bit easy is really interesting to me; wasn't the original game super-hard? |

| I've not played the original, so I can't chime in on that front. I'm not talking a hand-holding walk in the park here, but with its retro stylings I was expected a retro level of difficulty. I've only died once because two ants just below my cannon's firing height bum-rushed me and I panicked. |
