Great gameplay and I didn't have any issues with that. - 1 star because the game can be a bit grindy when trying to unlock outfits etc in the crypt mode. My guess is that they are trying to push for microtransactions. Don't fall for it!

Great game, difficult to master.

Some people call this the "Dark Souls" of 2d platformers and I'd say the comparison is valid. I got this on sale for under $20.00 and it was worth every penny.

Jump into a new Yoshi adventure in a world made of everyday objects - like boxes and paper cups! As Yoshi, you~ll leap up high, gulp down enemies, and set out on a treasure hunt to find all the different collectables. On the flip side, stages can be played backwards, providing new perspectives to explore and new ways to locate some of the more craftily hidden items! It all started when Kamek and Baby Bowser set out to steal a gem-set stone. Legend has it that this fabled artifact can grant the bearer their wildest dreams! But when the artifact~s gems are sent flying, it falls upon Yoshi and friends to find them. Luckily, saving the day can be cooperative and challenging. Pass a Joy-Con controller to a friend to team up as fellow Yoshis. Also, Mellow mode gives Yoshi wings for a breezier experience, which may come in handy! Finding all the flowers, coins, and Poochy Pups is no small feat! For extra protection, suit up in one of the handicraft costumes you can unlock in-game!

My kids and I got sucked into this game very quickly. My kids enjoy just getting to the end of the levels and I love trying to get all the collectibles. Something for everyone here and the game looks absolutely gorgeous docked or handheld.

I found this game to be very funny and fun to play and I love that I was able to find a physical copy. Do not buy this game for over $20.00 though. Anything over that is just not worth it in my opinion.

I love the portability of the switch and I honestly can't tell a difference between this and the Ps4 version with the naked eye. Graphics are great and runs smoothly.

Amazing classic 2d action, multiplayer needs work
on February 1, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
from Hendersonville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the old school 2d Mario games and this game really hits that sweetspot for me. I should mention it was worth every penny because I never played the original WiiU version.
One negative thing I can say is that the multi-player can get a little frustrating. I always feel like we get in each other's way and accidentally fall into pits when playing with my kids. Sharing the power ups is kind of a hassle at times as well. I wish there was a mode where we don't bump into each other or bounce on each other's heads. It can get extremely annoying.
Despite all of that, don't listen to the haters, this game is amazing playing solo on the go and finding all the star coins is so much fun.

Nice horror games polished up for the Switch

-1 star because the game only comes with Resident Evil Revelations part 1 on a physical cartridge. Part 2 is a digital download code included in the box and it is a very large file size. Can't stand when companies cheap out and do this to physical releases.

This is as close as we are going to get to a "Star Fox" game on the Switch for a while. With this starter pack the toys are not really needed to play as Fox with his ship so they just become a bonus cool collectable.

I'm no technical expert, but the game runs beautifully in both docked and handheld mode so far as I can tell.
-1 star for the difficulty. Everything you've heard is true; this game is brutally hard, especially for new players.

The coin came as a pre-order bonus for Super Smash Bros Ultimate. It is well made and comes in a hard plastic case to protect it. It just barely fits inside the Switch game case with Smash where I will be keeping it.

Accelerate your entire PC experience with the fast, powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 graphics card. Its award-winning NVIDIA Pascal architecture, powerful graphics engine, and state-of-the-art technologies give you the performance upgrade you need to drive today~s most demanding PC applications. Unleash your creativity with stunning HD video and picture editing and enjoy incredible gaming. Now, you can do it all 2X faster than with Intel Core i5 integrated graphics. You can even get easy driver updates and one-click game optimization with GeForce Experience.
 

Is there a way to install this in a W10/64 machine that has no current graphics card? If so, how do the drivers install?

Yes you can definitely install this into a Windows 10 machine. Windows will automatically get working drivers as long as you are connected to the Internet when you start the PC.

I would recommend downloading the GeForce Experience from the Nvidia site and letting it obtain the drivers afterwards and choose the "clean install" option. This is the easiest way to ensure that you have the latest drivers. I uninstall GeForce Experience once I'm done since I don't like bloatware.

Only at Best Buy Showcase part of your gaming collection in stunning fashion with this Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Metal Case. The high-quality metal construction protects against damage, and the multicolored exterior with multiple characters captures attention. This Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Metal Case features two interior clips to store an instruction manual and a secure location for disc storage
 

It looks like there are two disc holders on this. Why is this exclusively offered for the Nintendo Switch version if there is no cartridge holder (and not offered with the PS4 or Xbox One version)???

It comes with a plastic insert inside that will hold the Nintendo cartridge as well as the disc hubs to place the disc in for other versions.

Does this come with the manual? I know that sites like amazon have this edition and it has the manual, but am not sure if Best Buy has the manual as well, but has it on sale.

Yes, I bought mine at Best Buy and the manual is included.

Add a splash of color to your entertainment system with this Nintendo Joy-Con for Nintendo Switch. Its bright neon red and blue hues add a cheerful touch, and it lets you include another player in your games for competition or cooperation. This Nintendo Joy-Con can be separated into two parts for additional control options. Can be used by pairing wirelessly to Nintendo Switch 2. Cannot be attached to Nintendo Switch 2. A Nintendo Switch console or compatible accessory such as a Joy-Con charging grip or Joy-Con charging stand (two-way) is required for charging.
 

My current controllers aren't working properly. Can I pair a new set to my Nintendo switch?

Yes. The easiest way to pair these new Joycons is to just physically attach them to the desired system. They will pair immediately. Make sure to update them in the settings as well once attached.

Is this the blue(L) and red(R) set? Or is it the other way around. I see the pictures have both sets and do not specify which.

The ones I bought at the best buy store came with a LEFT RED and RIGHT BLUE. This is the opposite of the colors that come included with the neon blue and red switch console.
