Has anyone played Civ 6 on Switch yet? I might get a switch just for that game if it plays well. Playing Civ on the go would be sweet.

Was reading some reviews and it sounds like framerate can suffer as you get more on the field late in a game, and there's no online multiplayer (not that I've ever tried that in a Civ game myself!). Take those as you will.

Had some fun with Horizon Chase Turbo last night, should get some miles outa this one. The races are short (under 2 min) so you kinda get into the "ok, one more race" mentality. Looks like lots of content, about 30 cars, plus upgrades and stuff. Good simple arcade racer.
I do love that I can buy a game from my work computer, and it is installed and ready when I get home!

Anyone know of any Switch deals currently? Any indication there will be a sale before Christmas or on boxing day?
I caught the switch bug!

Well, regular price with a vendor-locked gift card isn't much of a deal, but it's probably the best you're going to get for now.

I think the Switch is going to be hot this Christmas season, so my personal guess is there will be no major sales prior to Christmas.

It was $125 off (via gift card) at shoppers just a few weeks ago.

That or search the city to see if anybody has the Black Friday Switch + Mario Kart Bundle for $380 still - that's unlikely though

Some good sales on the eshop for the Video Game Awards sale.
https://www.nintendo.com/en_CA/games/sales-and-deals
Mario Odyssey/Xenoblade Chronicles 2: $55.99
Diablo 3: $49.99
Wolfenstein 2/Doom/Skyrim: $39.99
For Mario & Xenoblade I think that's the first time they have been on sale digitally. First eShop or physical sale for Diablo 3 for Switch too I think.

Smash is out today! Metacritic has it at 93.
Picked it up at Walmart at 7am this morning, and there were about 6 other people at the electronics till, picking it up too!

So I bought Smash Brothers and want to play it with my wife tonight. I haven't played one of these since the N64 and my wife has videogame ADD. What do I need to know to get us to enjoy the game right off the bat?

So I played a half dozen matches online and the bet code actually seems okay in this one. A couple little hiccups, but it is launch day and they’ve already done some maintenance on it.
I am going to be playing this one a LOT if the online works reliably.

I usually would. But my wife was off work today and asked if I’d leave it at home so she could keep playing Pokémon.

I'm very curious how you can use a portable gaming console at work - unless it's limited over lunch and coffee breaks. Mobile phones - sure it's easier to conceal.
