Friday: In this discovery week session SwitchUP will be bringing all of its consoles to give you a taste of what we have to offer next year! This typically includes but isn’t limited to Switches, Wiis, PlayStation 2s, Xboxs, GameCubes, and Wii Us. We also do a lot more than providing consoles every Friday: we organise teams for NSE and Cross-Uni tournaments; run monthly-ish tournaments (3 per term) in separate rooms during Friday hangouts; host craft events for special occasions like Halloween and Valentines; organise joint socials with a range of societies so other students can give gaming a go and our members can try out and learn new skills; prepare special one off outings like Animal Crossing Aquarium Bingo, gaming conventions, bonfire night, TWIST (board game cafe), cinema visits and more; plan one off events on campus like Nintendo themed D&D, quizzes and tournaments; and organise other fun socials around Plymouth including pub socials (SwitchUP does not endorse drinking). So even if this discovery week session isn’t quite what you’re looking for, there are plenty of other events SwitchUP organises that you can get involved in next year!

We have a range of games to play, including but not limited to classics like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Mario Party Superstars and Animal Crossing, as well as the Indie SwitchUP classics of Boomerang-Fu, Overcooked, Rubber Bandits and Golf with Friends.

First round will be Runbow, two players are eliminated. Round two will be Towerfall, where two more players are eliminated. Round three, Mario Kart Battle Mode, (1 match of each mode, plus a random one for tie breaker), two more are again eliminated. Final Round will be a Wii Play showdown, where the last player standing will win the SwitchUP Champion trophy! Who. Will. It. Be?

Furthermore, in the other rooms there will be a variety of consoles available for all to enjoy! So whether you wanna watch the finalist battle it off or just want to enjoy some classic SwitchUP! fun, please come along!
