Finished xenoblade tonight, what a great little game, the battle system is awesome once you get into it, I highly recommend it, story wise if give it maybe an 8.

Botw is next.

I'm sorry, I haven't played the game since it's GameCube launch, like 16 years ago!

Good to hear, how many hours did you put into it?

477 hours for myself and I still haven't started the second pack of the DLC.

Just finished super punch out without losing to get the bonus circuit.
First time in about 20 years.

Feck :eek: there must be a ton of stuff to do so!

If you do everything it'll take you hundreds of hours to complete. You don't have to though, if you don't want to.

Realistically, you'll probably get about 100-120 out of it, and that's doing practically everything worth doing, bar collectibles.

At least 250 for me. That includes all the DLC content, bar some of the items.

Think it ended up as somewhere between 160 and 200 hours for me!
Finished most side quests, think it was just one that I hadn't finished. Didn't try to collect all the Korok seeds.

Who in their right mind would put themselves through that?

Me. Oh wait, you said right mind.

Nevermind, carry on.

I found my old Wii in the attic recently. Have Trauma Centre 1 & 2 lined up to play later.

Can't seem to find any of the other games I had though

I was only looking through my Wii collection yesterday, jaysus that's a lot of games.
GTi Club is in there, very good but not the same without the handbrake of the arcade version!

Aye, I've just been on eBay and the volume of games is unreal. Trying to work out a short list of Wii and Gamecube games that are must haves.

GameCube games can get quite expensive as I started one a few years ago but gave up when I couldn't find prices I liked for Twin Snakes, Twilight Princess & Fire Emblem. Found it hard to locate ones in good condition too.

CiDeRmAn · 22-05-2018 11:46am

I started with a dodgy cake of writable media, then moved on to a hdd full of dodgy-ness.
Then I bought pretty much every game I really liked from those mod chipped days, and now I have a pretty decent collection of Wii titles.
I just wish I played them more often!

fixXxer · 22-05-2018 11:56am

€50 for Twin Snakes and €82 for Skies of Arcadia Legends in CeX !! I've just realized I'll need to source a controller too for the Gamecube stuff. Oh I do love a good treasure hunt!

I would be weary of buying games in CEX, I bought a few games from there and generally they are missing booklets, cases are marked etc. If you were looking to collect and had a few extra euro you are better to buy off of Amazon.

Or smaller sellers like RAGE (if the price is right).

Finally got into Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze.

Game is tough, but fair. Doesn't help when I play like this:

Not gonna lie, I did the same a few times with the barrel bonus levels, overshot the puzzle piece

Most difficlt part for me was the second boss I believe,

the owl boss

, had to use Funky Kong for that in the end as was wrecking my head.

My son is playing it and can't pass the second boss either so I said here go on gimme the controller, queue 1 hour of trying to beat him and still didn't manage it grrr. Didn't use DD though, might go and help him on that.

blockfighter · 22-05-2018 4:12pm

I'm up to the 3rd boss now. Tough as hell. I find Dixie is the most useful secondary character.
It's a great game. I'm terrible at collecting puzzle pieces and the letters KONG so I've decided to ignore them completely.

What are you playing, Nintendo edition.
