Sitting here taking a shit in a car repair centre.

I'm stuck here most of the day.

Brought ma switch 2 and power bank, headphones too.

I was a bit miserable at the cost of this repair and this is the 2nd timebI had to bring it in.

But playing Mario Kart World in free roam with literally the best soundtrack ever, I can't help but smile.

There's also some really inventive challenges. I wish there was a way to favourite their locations.

I tried Animal Crossing and MK8 on switch 2 portable.

I was expecting it to look horrible, but it's fine.

I think the games display output is a full 720p so it's not a sub-HD image which a lot of switch games had.

It still looks 720p, and not as good as docked but it's surprisingly colourful and clean. But obviously not 1080p

Quintessential GG content. Misadventure involving a car. Defecation. The joy of Nintendo. Beautiful.

So I spent ages remapping controls to play N64 shooter and it was very difficult.

The key is really to map the C buttons to the ABXY buttons.

Turok 1 having you walk over thin planks of wood with twitchy horrible N64 era analogue is nigh on unplayable.

I'm going to have to disable the look spring and change the sensitivity.

Turok 2 is better but changing weapons acts strangely with the weapon wheel.

Perfect Dark is okay now. Still not as good as I used to be but I got it to a good playable state.

It's great how well this game has held up and also eye opening how dated it feels at other times.

Fuck my life.

I hate car repairs/servicing/insurance.

Stupid woman put her whole body weight on my airbag on the steering wheel. Already cost me over $320

And they're about to charge me again as they didn't fix it properly last time.

I couldn't even play Perfect Dark. It was rough. I think the Xbox version that I bought has the option for modern controls. Plus it is in HD.

This version is HD. You do have to heavily customise the controls but it does work.

The 360 version was a better overhaul though I never got.

I'm sure the Nightdive ports of Turok are better and may even have gyro aiming.

The game is presented in hd, warts and all, but the xbox version is like a remaster with smoother framerate and smoother visuals. The visual are less pixelated and rather flat at times. Its certainly easier on the eyes.

[nintendolife.com]FAST Fusion free update hitting Thursday Free tracks, new particle system, pure 1440p output option, more

Good.  I was feeling a bit shorthanded by the meagre 12 tracks on offer.  I don't know how I feel about 15.  I'd be much more comfortable if they added 6 tracks bringing the total to 18.  And that'd still be only half of those in RMX on Switch.

Also: while the tracks are good, they're less distinct than those in RMX.  There you had tracks set on the outside of a tube, or with bits where you were soaring through space.

Lol I had to translate Kanji  via Google camera to setup a Japanese Nintendo account and redeem my Ace Prosecutor from a Japanese eshop page in Kanji

Now only the Japanese user seems to have access to this bonus music? The game card for it is on "his" page not my regular account.

So now I have to play with this alt account to get the music?

Yes I know, I wasn't online back when I was a 360 gamer. No wireless Internet lol and wired controller, no HDD. That was fun.

I'm hoping Microsoft put that Rare collection on Switch 2.

I find the tracks to be lacking vs Fzero GX.

These FAST games seem to be on the brink of being something better, they need to inject more personality into the games.

For me they've almost become like games I buy at launch cause they're cheap and tech demo like with how good the visuals are.

It's also $100 more expensive than a regular Quest 3S, so you're basically paying in full for that Xbox controller and 3 months of GamePass.  I'd much rather just own a non-Xbox branded 3S and just buy a controller and gamepass.

I've noticed a visual inconsistency in Mario Kart World, of the calibre that no amount of DLSS wizardry will be able to solve: brake lights and reverse lights don't work.  You'd think that through all of the playtesting and with the amount of people who have been working on this, someone would have noticed this.

Not sure if sarcasm...

I didn't even notice that the vehicles had lights on them.

What are your favourite free roam challenges?

I liked the one where you do all these stunts up a bridge, flip over and come to the upper level.
