(mart, this next sentence isn't a moan…)

I'm a big boy, it's not like I'm going to take offence. :smile:

I'm surprised it's as many games on day one as it is. For first party stuff, people are overlooking the upgrade pack content for some of the titles though… like, for Kirby, that's a big chunk of new game to play when it eventually releases. It's not a full brand new game, sure, but it's definitely a big chunk.

Can't say much, but I can say Mario Kart World is fucking great.

Kinda annoyed there was no preorder or price information

There are legal reasons for that.

I have seen a screenshot allegedly from the Nintendo Store that it'll be £395.99 – Mart, care to confirm/deny?

I wasn't (and still am not) disclosed on the price. But everywhere seems to be saying £395.99 for the console and £429.99 for it with Mario Kart World, so… sure. Why not.

That second price seems wacky though, given MKW on its own is SEVENTY FIVE POUNDS (for the physical one, it's £66.99 digitally).

Sorry to hear that, Bri, that sounds shit for all of you. Platitudes won't help, but I genuinely hope things get better in the long run.

PLAY
Still playing Red Dead Redemption, currently rambling through 'Mexico'. Still playing Sea of Thieves but, honestly, my enthusiasm for that wains because there feels like there's fuck all to do in it currently… the spark's gone, it's just the same things over and over. Dipping back into Binding of Isaac because I've not touched it in ages. Still tinkering with the Retroid Pocket 5 since I'm determined to make Model 3 games run at 60FPS (and doing so seems to have undone some positive work I did making Model 2 run perfectly).

WANT
Some rest. The last six months have been exhausting at work, and it won't stop any time soon.

BIN
Everything. The world is horrible right now, the cunts are running rampant with no-one stopping them and it just feels utterly pointless. It's all so bad. Burying my head in the sand does nothing, but it's better than being constantly bombarded with how awful everything is. This isn't where I want to be, and I don't see it ever getting better at this point. Minds are too poisoned, being a good person is apparently weak and bad, I hate it. I absolutely hate it.
