    Re: Official Video Games Thread VIII: Titans are destined to fall

    Anyone got any hints for Binding of Isaac? Don't want to get spoiled, just general "hey, try/don't try this you idiot" stuff I should know about.

      Does anybody other than Twitch actually have a Switch yet? I finished Zelda (storyline only so far), but it was on the Wii U.

        Unlocked Eve on Binding of Isaac.

        First run with her I get a freaking Crack The Sky in room 1 (shoots sunbeams everywhere that wreck everything, especially bosses, but takes a couple rooms to recharge.)

        A few floors later I get a Virgo (protection from a whole mess of stuff) and a freaking Holy Mantle (free one-hit shield per room.) I'm pretty much ready for war.

        Make it to Depths. Pick up The Emperor. Start getting ***pwned, get down to 2 hearts, decide to pull a "What does THIS do?"

        Well I'll tell you what it does - warps directly to Mom (one of the numerous end bosses.) Crack The Sky isn't charged. Game over.

            Hearing lots of places are getting in shipments to prepare for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe which drops Friday. Target and Wal-Mart especially.

              I pre ordered kart so I don't need to hunt for it.

                Honestly, other than happening upon a $10 deal, is there are reason to purchase a game at a store anymore?

                  In this case I could see it saving on storage space (you only have ~25 GB and an AAA game can take 6 GB or more - believe MK8 was 6.9 GB when I looked in the eShop.)

                  I got Breath of the Wild and Bomberman on cartridge. I'll try to get MK8 on cartridge as well, but it's nice to know there's the eShop if that fails.

                    I buy them all from a store. It's near work, I build up relationship with employees. I can get better service and heads up on items coming in.

                    Pre-ordered at the store.

                      I was thinking more along the lines of ordering the game through Amazon or Target, just not going into a store and competing with the crowds.

                      Well, that makes sense. No stores are really that convenient for me.

                        My Gamestop still had 1 Switch left today out of the 5 they received yesterday. I'm surprised.

                        Maybe people are assuming they won't find one.

                          I've not bothered looking for one. Didn't think to even try until August or September.

                            Twitch, you should send me whatever code Switch uses to mp some Mario Kart.
