Yep, I have Zelda, 1-2 Switch, Shovel Knight, Fast RMX and Snipperlcips.
It is very similar to F-Zero or Wipeout. The main mechanics here are 2 different things
1. Collecting boost capsules on the track. The fill up your meter and you can basically NoS boost with that
2. There are orange and blue boost pads along the tracks. The Y button allows you to change the color of your car to match either of those and if you do, you get a big speed boost.
Question bout shovel knight...whats the difference in the 9.99 one and 24.99 one. They look like two different games.

They're both Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment , but the $24.99 one comes with the Treasure Trove edition.

I guess they haven't explained that well. I've seen people buying both unfortunately.
The 9.99 one Spectre of Torment is included with the 24.99 one. Spectre of Torment is a free DLC campaign for the original Shovel Knight game, (the 24.99 one), they're just also offering it as a separate standalone game for a reduced price.
Also, the 24.99 Shovel Knight also comes with another free DLC campaign "Plague of Shadows" and there will be another free DOC campaign released later this year.
Basically, just buy the 24.99 one

This is what I voted as well, but it's being sent to me so we will see how it plays out. It is a pretty sad state for Nintendo that the majority out there share this same feeling. Wait and see...even with a zelda game out for it at launch. I can't say I blame them however, Nintendo consoles have been :flabbynsick: post the SNES.
Gamecube was a cot damn beast console with classics for days. I could give a fukk about sales. You can :camby: calling that :flabbynsick:.

The GameCube was the worst console that gen....the damn dreamcast had more heat in its short run.
Based on what? Cause idiots thought it had worse graphics despite the fact it didn't? GCN failed commercially mainly cause of no DVD player. It had superior graphics to PS2, amazing games, a controller so sick that people still use it to this day.
GCN shyts on Dreamcast. All of the best Dreamxast games got way better ports on GCN.

The Nintendo Wii was a commercial success, the GameCube just had super Mario 64, Zelda Ocarina of time, all the epic wrestling games people wish was still around, Turock, Goldeneye, resident evil 4, Conker's bad Fur day, I could go on but I'm sure by now you have realized the error in your ways :francis:

The fact that they couldn't get any 3rd party ports for launch is just sad.

Zelda is the only reason to buy this thing at launch

Yeah, that was weird. Still, Gamecube had Windwaker, Mario Sunshine which gets too much hate cause they went and did something different with the FLUDD mechanic, Metroid Prime, Melee, Double Dash the GOAT, great new ips in Pikmin and Animal Crossing, Kirby's Air Ride, F-Zero GX, Paper Mario TTYD, Wario World, Luigi's Mansion, Wario Ware, etc.

I find it interesting that people go on and on about Nintendo systems getting downgraded ports of 3rd oarty titles but back when Gamecube had superior versions of games like RE 4, Viewtiful Joe and SoulCalibur II, it wasn't a big deal

I agree, I actually liked the gamecube. Last time Nintendo was serious about being competitive with Sony and microsoft. Now they kinda just exist in their own lane.

The switch look's damn good tho.
