I still can't quite figure out the controls for activating your partner or what the combo meter thing is top right, so will look that up as feel I need an explanation video as the text explainer in game didn't click with my brain.

Good old Nintendo.

My family decide that they want to pick up Animal Crossing again so they pay for the family online only to discover that because of the new virtual cards system they both need to own the game now. So that's £75 for a fiver year old game.

Also I quit Aniki's family group to join our home group and apparently I'm not allowed in another family group for a year now.

It's got that new update coming so presume that has caused this price to remain so steady.

My kid has a profile on my Switch but not an actual account. So for Xmas she wants the Switch Lite with Animal Crossing, her own account and then Paradise Planning or whatever the DLC is called. As she wants to set up her own Island completely by herself.

I think when the Switch update launches I will finally look at moving our actual Island to the Switch 2. Or maybe just buy a physical cartridge and then just start a completely fresh Island on the S2 although I would need to look into how that would work with having a digital copy of the game on the OG Switch…

Recently I got the Hyrule Edition Switch Lite (spotted them on Game Collections Ebay store and ended up getting mine for a great price through presumably an listing error) and have started to play Xenoblade Chronicles 2 finally. About 4 hours in and the best thing I can say about it is I have spent all day looking forward to playing it later on this evening.

The form factor of the Switch Lite feels really nice too. I could do with maybe a tiny bit more of a curve on it but ultimately I love it.

We often mistakenly press it trying to take screen shots on Mario Kart, does that count? Once cost me a win in Knockout tour as my kid tried to press it as I was going around the last corner and it stalled my Kart.

I never finished that but quite liked what I did play except for having zero interest in the characters like you mention!

You have someone who is injured or stuck in cryo or something don't you? I remember particularly disliking, or at least having zero interest in whoever that was. So when the game is trying to drive you to save them it's difficult to care.
