Anyone played the recent unofficial Mario 64 PC port ?

No sorry, I just played the incredibly official PC port of that.

Thoughts

I've played mario 64 so many times over the years that i've settled for watching the port on youtube

I downloaded it and ran it just to see if it worked but it was running a bit quick. There is a fix for it but I decided not to play it as Ninty are supposedly releasing a load of remastered Mario games, including SM64, for the Switch for the 35th Anniversary. I thought I would wait for that to play through it again.

I've been wanting to play through the both Galaxys again and it sounds like at least the first one is being remastered too.

SM64 on the Switch=heaven

Currently popular on the pc though:

Have you tried it out yet, Pang?

Maybe tonight. Sounds positive though.

Thunder Force AC is out on the Japanese e-shop so I'll be downloading that as well.

I am pleased to report that Panzer Dragoon is now playable. Laggy controls and delay when you rotate the camera are gone. Tried performance mode (60fps) but left it off as it reduces the (already unImpressive) resolution quite a lot. The visuals in this game are generally pretty yuck. Horrible colour palette. Makes enemies hard to see at times.

Hopefully they’ll finish Zwei before releasing it.

haha ,I've never played an animal crossing game or any idea what its about really but i'm loving all the stuff I'm seeing about this one.

We’ve all been there

My SM3DW save got deleted

Mr Driller DrillLand is now available in Switch eShop.

I'm currently enjoying Missile Dancer (jp e-shop).
It's not the hardest shmup but the chain scoring mechanic is a lot of fun and the main driver for playing.
No online leaderboards. Hopefully something to come in the future.

Looks fun, one to pick up for sure

Took a while to get the first boss cell but it seems relatively easy to reach and beat The Hand of the King on every run with no boss cells selected now. Reaching the Hand of the King with one boss cell is proving to be tricky but I'm sticking with it. Grt8 game

I'm still playing this, pretty much exclusively. I've got two boss cells now which equates to 'Very Hard' and it isn't kidding Hits from enemies wipe out your energy pretty ferociously and there are next to no health recharges between levels. I can't imagine what it's like with five boss cells

It's still so much fun though. A good average run lasts an hour or so which to me is the perfect amount of time to spunk on a game in the evening between other things. It's really addicting trying to get the 30 or 60 kills with taking no hits to open the bonus rooms between levels. It's equally as infuriating when you lose a **** loads of cells as you've been hoarding them and trying to get them to the The Blacksnith to upgrade the Legendary Forge. Death from the Cursed Chests can **** right off too

I keep hearing good things about Dead Cells. It's on my list now
I do love the Switch. The PS4 gathers more and more dust since I got one.

We all had a good laugh at this today

Started Breath of the Wild yesterday. While the game looks great for a handheld game, the gameplay feels like torture, long walks, unclear quests, weapons that break fast. I‘m not sure this is for me
