Super Metroid lets you remap controls.

 

(Sadly, both Z buttons are not included.)

 

yeah - I want to do this for Super Metroid.  I want weapon select on the ZL trigger

[Strafe]

I think the new 8 bit do pads are programmable.

[MW_Jimmy]

Those SNES pads that Nintendo are selling (at some indeterminate time) don't seem to have a home button?That's a bit rubbish.

I didn't know tie dye shirts were back. I'm so out of touch with youth culture these days....

 

Fuck! Beat me to it! I'm posting mine anyway since I made a variation, I'll be damned if it goes to waste!

Take some inspiration from my layout:

 

Y - Shot

B - Jump

X - Aim Down

A - Weapon Select

L - Aim Up

R - Run

Select - Weapon Cancel

Someone just needs to Ravi Drums-ify that GIF and we're sorted for another generation.

New or used?

 

PlayAsia have finally shipped mine,  so I can clear this mystery up for you.

HD rumble is great if people bother to use it. The fizzy water in Mario odyssey being a stand out.

 

In other news, there’s a Contra Hard Corps demo on the store. It looks pretty ropey.

 

 Beyond ropey. What the hell have they done to Contra

Hint: it's not Contra.

It plays alright but it does not feel (or look) like a £40 release.

it's not letting me assign aim up or down to anything other than L or R??

Yoshi’s Island is still amazing. Can’t put it down.

Got my drifting Joycon back from Nintendo. It is not my Joycon and is a new one or they've replaced the case that had the massive ding in it. I'm not complaining either way.

[iknowgungfu]

So, I've had a switch for a fair old while now relatively speaking and I've got a daft question.  HD Rumble.... What is supposed to be so special about it compared to previous rumble/force feedback efforts in other consoles?

 

I think I may be taking it for granted in our console spoiled days.

Have you played 1-2-Switch - that's the best demo to really show it off.

[T Pot]

CDKeys currently have switch credit on the cheap:

Never had the joy I'm afraid.

How do you skip the intro on Superbeat Xonic? It’s too bloody long and none of the buttons seem to do it. Is there a combination to press?

Got the Labo Variety Kit for my birthday, which was a nice surprise. A second surprise is that the RC car race music is a legit banger, reminiscent of Rave On from Killer 7.

I've only just seen all those new joy-con colours coming in October. The purple and orange are very tempting...

In case anyone hasn’t tried out snes online yet I wrote up this piece about it.

I played Overcooked for the first time last night at a friend’s house. It was great!

 

So.... should I get the first or second one from the eshop? Is there a consensus on which is the better game?

[Popo]

Not sure if I should post in here or the eShop thread, but I finished Steamworld Dig 2 today and would like to say that it was a very enjoyable 12 hours of a game with a great (if slightly compulsive) core gameplay loop that didn’t outstay it’s welcome. I wasn’t in love with the visuals at first and found the music to be a bit grating at times, but looking past those things it was a great wee game.

My wife and I spent a lot of the weekend playing Puyo Puyo 2 so now we’re thinking of getting some more competitive puzzle games. I’m looking at Crystal Crisis because we both like Puzzle Fighter, is there anything else that stands out?

We played a lot of Tricky Towers on our PS4 when we first got it, having that for travel could be pretty great.
