trash person posted:Bomberman is going to have online play right? I kind of doubt it. I don't think online is ready or will be until Splatoon is ready. Even their new IP ARMS they said will have online "eventually" so I don't think they have any of that working yet, or until June. If Bomberman does have online I don't think it will work until at least then.

Amazon has a little disclaimer stating the sold out their initial stock and are getting more in soon so my guess is that nintendo is drip-feeding the pre-order allotment based on demand (which is smart)

Yeah both of your examples are far and beyond better than their predecessors See also Metroid Prime 2 > 1, F-Zero GX > X, Perfect Dark > Goldeneye, etc.

BambooEarpick posted:So, just to make it clear, what will I need to enjoy this system? I will have to buy the system (obvs), games completely separate, a memory card, pro-controller, USB-C charger and external battery packs? Is this correct? To add to what other people were saying, I was looking at buying a pro-controller at launch but there have been a lot of people I trust saying that the joycons are actually really comfortable controllers. D-pad isn't all that great but unless you know you need a traditional one I wouldn't instant buy a pro-controller without trying the one you get first.

I cancelled my Pro Controller preorder in favour of another set of Joycons. If the Joycons prove to be super unusable, doubtful, I'll grab a pro controller. The beauty of the joycons is that you get 2 controllers for the price of 1 1 very very expensive controller with no charging dock included by default

I'm curious if Iwata would have kept the price down / bundled controllers + charging grips together / included a pack in game. Good ol Iwata. Gonna miss ya buddy

I don't think I ever heard or saw how to charge the joycons. Do they charge while attached and docked?

Calaveron posted:I don't think I ever heard or saw how to charge the joycons. Do they charge while attached and docked? I believe so. Worst part is if you order a second set, you also need to buy a charging grip if you want to charge to sets at the same time. Nintendo are really gouging on accessories this time around, which I don't really agree with. Still remember Wii controllers being expensive as balls though, so I'd like to see a cost comparison between the 2 and how they stacked up.

The second prime is such a loving slog and makes exploring actively harmful to you as well as having just a poo poo ton of unnecessary backtracking for its own sake, and having to pick up ammo.

Think my mate bought the 2nd one when we were living together, so I only remember playing a little bit of it. I seem to recall the shadow/light energy drain mechanic being dumb as gently caress to deal with. Prime 1 was genre redefining. Prime 3 was just rock solid.

univbee posted:Disc playback isn't worth the trouble including the licensing requirements (which is why the Wii and Wii U don't do it despite having a technically capable drive, and the Xbox One won't play discs if your internet or Xbox Live are down), not when if you're one of those weirdos who plays discs you can get a $20 dedicated player from WalMart. There's a lot of hubbub in this thread, but the disc shaming, my word. A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:hahaha what the gently caress dvd playback It could play VHS if you cracked the firmware with some homebaked tape player code. In all seriousness, I don't expect DVD playing on my Nintendo, but people who are genuinely surprised that people watch vintage media must not be big cinema fans. Plus they keep removing stuff from netflix. You darn kids getting all jacked in, then they take Murder She Wrote off of streaming, what then?? This happened too! Anarchy

USB 2.0 was good for 2.5 watts, USB 3.0 default for 4.5, USB Battery Charging for 7.5; USB-PD is up to 100 watts, or practically limited by the equipment involved.
