  1. lets be honest as good as windows phone is (and as an os id much rather have that than ios/android) its a dead system its a shame but there are so few apps for it and that dosent look likely to ever change its almost wrong to sell phones that use it
  2. i see issues with that as its going to be hard to use it in anything other than tablet mode and it worked so far with 3ds/wii-u having 2 screens rather than just 1
  3. as really is 9. Tbh they all seem silly things to get upset about.
  4. well we can add another game to the list fire emblem switch (yey) BUT sometime probably 2018 lol though Nintendo's recent embracing of the series means hopefully some vc titles esp the game cube and wii ones which cost a bomb (says someone who has bought both)

    well ive put about an hour into it (just got my loftwing) and i can see the sword swing (and roll) mechanics becoming increasingly annoying but im enjoying it so far just wish i could use a normal controller not have to use a nunchuck in my left hand to move. I also cant see me sitting down and playing it for hours at a time i dont think my arms could take it lol
  6. tokyo mirage sessions is shin megami tensi cross fire emblem. It was by square but i dont think its part of the bravely series octo something iirc
  7. no vita and i just end up abandoning long rpgs on 3ds i just want to use a tv lol but back on topic looks like some sort of remake is coming to switch as isnt shin megami tensei related to persona
  8. i really must look into persona sometime i really enjoyed tokyo mirage sessions and thats from the same people i think (atlus)
  9. sensible strategy BUT with the limited games before then (and i doubt more than 2 at most will be and you can download it now announcements) the switch could be all but dead in the water by the middle of june as by then there will only be about 10 games out of which 1.5 look like must buys (mk8 is the .5 its good if you dont own wiiu if you do its a kick in the nuts being asked to pay full price for what basically amounts to some dlc)

    now ff13 and ff13 2 ive completed got ff13 3 a while back and hmm real time combat sort of i much prefer turn based i think ive played maybe 2 hours of it and given up (it was £6 so meh). 15 seems to be so odd the first half is supposed to be great and the end feels 1/2 done and tacked on from what ive heard esp chapter 13 and if you haven't watched the film/anime series

    a bit off topic but diddnt seem worth starting a new thread Zelda skyward sword ive noticed id on the wii-u eshop ive heard bad things about the motion controls (i do have a wiimote+ and nunchuck) is it that bad or not? as with ll the botw stuff i fancy playing a zelda and this is one ive never played (tried oot on my 3ds but maybe because its 3ds couldnt get into it and i suspect majoras mask will be the same issue (and everything ive seen says 3ds versions fix soo many issues with both that i dont want to play the vc versions)

  18. yes but its nintendo they always have shortages im sure they do it on purpose to drive news stories for free advertising just look at the nes mini how many people would never of heard about it if the scarcity wasnt a news item?
  19. is your heart not in it anymore?
  20. that particular model i have no experience with but the last batch of asus i had were dire about 1/3 if not more of them resuse to run on battery some wont even run on mains. They also dont allow any ram upgrades and even fitting an ssd is a right ballache because of the case.
  21. thats the thing wii-u sold well to start with but games dried up so sales of hardware dried up im not sure they have learned the correct lessons from it granted at least its not wii-switch and the messaging about wtf it is is better but by aiming it at a niche powerful enough to do 1080 but can be used on the go im not sure they havnt aimed it at a segment that dosent exist at least outside japan
  22. thats the thing i suspect most people will buy this as a 2nd console so for instance if i wanted fifa (and its got worse every year the megadrive 94 version is still the most fun) id buy it on xbox even though i own a switch. Thats the issue it needs exclusives and unless nintendo still have a lot up their sleeves i see long term this failing as hard as wiiu a least in europe/america there is a lot more merit im lead to believe in the portable side in japan where its against the vita and could win that race. Beyond botw and splatoon 2 there isnt much i want to the point i might actually cancel my pre order and just play botw on wii-u as the exclusive line up atm looks pretty bleak mk8 deluxe being a full price game with no new single player content (bar some new characters/carts) is a kick to the nuts for anyone who bought it for wii-u as to steep ive got it for xbox and its ok not great certainly i think id rather break out my 360 and amped tbh but if you want a chill game (no pun intended) its actually not bad but even the £25 i paid for it is probably too much
  23. its a shame the uk dosent get the master edition theres some cool swag in that one (and yes i know i could import as region free but too much effort)
  24. file server resource manager its built into server 2008+ "just isnt on by default its part of file and print services iirc) you can even use it to stop people saving say mp4's to specific locations
  25. i have a blanket/rug & first aid kit(and car came with a compressor rather than a spare) in the car because its useful but beyond that no i cant think of any realistic situation where id need that stuff and wouldnt be better just leaving the car at the side of the road and walking or getting it recovered to a garage. Start too far down that road and you need a fully kitted out milatary hum vee with 1 months rarions etc. Generally in the uk the climate wont kill you unless you are stupid or very unlucky
