bradigor Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Ramen Legends As an aside, looking around for games for this thing and all seem to still be north of £45, which is kind of a good thing, as I won't just pick any up for the sake of it. But I do want to get something else for Lucas to go with what he is getting on Christmas... He will have Super Mario Odyssey and Rocket League. So was thinking one of: Splatoon 2 Mario Kart 8 Super Bomberman R Which would be the best? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smac Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Splatoon 2 or Mario Kart. How old is he? Has he played MK previously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No dice on the official one but gearbest have a knock off version for £15 Here worth a quick punt, will post up impressions when it comes. So this pad came last week (just in time for Xenoblade). It’s not half bad I tell thee! Plastics are cheap but the sticks are nice in terms of feel and response, buttons are not bad and it feels way more comfortable than the joy cons. A solid 6/10 and a very passable alternative to dropping silly money on a pro. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgraves Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Splatoon. Always Splatoon. Mario Kart is good though, can't really go wrong with that either. I've helped rule Bomberman out at least.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splatoon 2 is online only for multi, I think. As for Bomberman R it's just not very good fantastic, buy my copy off eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played a little of MK8 on the Wii U but not much. He enjoyed the DS version when he had that. Edit: Cheers guys, will toss a coin between the two then when I come to buying.

cohen205 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I'd say MarioKart all day long. I never tire of online races. Such pure joy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smac Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Yeah, Splatoon is a great game - should be second - but MK is a better all-rounder, especially at a family XMas where local multiplayer comes into its own. You can get cheap steering wheel-shaped Joycon holders as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not rushing to the aid of Nintendo, we're talking about DF here. Doom was just a recent illustrative example of my occasional issues with them. It could have been quite a few other articles of theirs - they get caught up in the latest and greatest and can't wait to scrape last years Cabbage Patch kid off their shoes. Why even try and bring that other nonsense into it? You know what's worse than "fanboys" - people obsessed with trying to slap that label on others as some snide way of devaluing their opinions. Haha wow never said you were a fanboy. Just that you seem to be eager to stamp out any alternative view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you know you'll have to get both at some point. I much prefer Splatoon 2, but hand on heart, if you had to choose just one? On the other hand, if he has it on WiiU and DS, get Splatoon.

pulsemyne Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Very impressive port of Yooka Laylee on the swtich. Playtonic seem to have done a cracking job. Never played the game myself so unsure if it's any good but you cannot fault them on the port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
