Pre-ordered ARMS. I’ll try the Test Punch as a way to see if I want to cancel or not. Honestly I’m hoping it will be fun enough to be a good cardio arm workout to cancel my Computer-Analyst-weak-desk-job-arms.

Awesome! Hope the Character Guide helps in getting started!

It did. Really thorough for what information is currently available to us, and definitely worth breaking into two parts.

I was wondering the same. While the game looks like fun ( i thought it was crap when i first heard ) it could make a fun cardio / workout game, pre-ordered mine as well

It’s definitely grown on me. I thought it was good Nintendo was trying a new IP, but didn’t look like anything I’d be picking up. They’ve managed to pull me over into the maybe to yes category now. I find some of the marketing still obnoxious, but perhaps that is due to me not being a fan of sports in general, physical or esport.
