BambooEarpick posted:So what's the consensus on screen protectors? Get one? Which one? That being said I'm told that if you get one it should be a glass one and not a cheap plastic one that can potentially distort the image. enojy posted:The dock can supposedly scratch the screen over time. I'd get one if you plan on undocking it often.

bbchops posted:Yep. First thing I did was update, with the Joy Con connected, and it's been perfect all afternoon in handheld mode. I've just set it up on my TV and immediately Link is casually strolling to his death over cliffs. Looks like they definitely haven't fixed it yet then. Hopefully people from earlier in the thread were right that they can increase the maximum range of these things with a firmware update since ,supposedly, they set them purposefully lower than they could go for better battery life.

Harrow posted:How do the joycons feel in the joycon grip thing? When I do get one of these I'm going to get a Pro Controller, probably, but I'm curious how the included grip feels. Bad imo. Theres no room underneath for your fingers and the grip wings are too short.

I've heard the screen is glass, and I'm almost certain that plastics can't scratch glass because of their hardness rating or whatever, right?

I've come to learn it is actually impossible to choose whether to download a game to internal or microSD, and impossible to move a game once it has been downloaded. Unbelievable.

khy posted:Please convince me not to buy a switch right now and why waiting would be better The only good game for it right now is Zelda. Maybe Shovel Knight if you haven't played it yet. The next contenders of good games for the Switch are 1-2 Switch, a 50 dollar tech demo and Let's Dance 2017. The next real game is probably Mario Kart 8 at the end of April.

Now as long as they actually accept my authorized leave it at my door instead of just tapping the missed you notice on my door without knocking I will be happy. Years of people fear mongering the USB C format and how unless it's the specific type approved by one nerd's Amazon review your device has a 50/50 chance of combusting

khy posted:Please convince me not to buy a switch right now and why waiting would be better The only game out so far is Zelda, being an early adopter on wacky new electronics sucks, Nintendo is well known for doing hardware revisions that improve a lot on initial designs, there's like jack poo poo for games coming out until the end of the year, there's no virtual console yet. imo it sounds like a solid wait and see if you're not already Nintendo crazy. I'm the sort of person who really wants to get one to plop down and play Mario Kart and VC stuff with friends in weird places and I'm definitely waiting until at least MK and more likely until a revision/price drop. Like if the end of April comes around and literally all the problems we're hearing about are confirmed bullshit and I can get my hands on a separated joycon and make sure I'd be ok playing games with it then I might splurge.

Brickseek still had my closest Walmart has having 2 Neons and more Grays (I was thinking of getting a Neon instead of the Gray that is out for delivery). However, I decided to call and they were out of stock. So those online sites sometimes don't update for hours/end of the day. It appears a lot of places are selling out now that it is later in the day.

The N64 revisions were minor board changes that affects how easy it is to RGB mod it. khy posted:I'm Zelda crazy and I hear so many good things about Zelda but I'm not Nintendo crazy. Well right now if you have a 3DS and a WiiU, you can play pretty much all Zelda games. So don't get the Switch and stick with your WiiU.

Edit: You know Zelda is on the WiiU too right? You could probably find one of those at a pawn shop or on craigslist right now for the best price it's ever been with people ditching them for Switches.

One thing I read about the Joycon issue is that some TVs can provide interference. Try moving your switch dock further away from the TV, per Nintendo Customer Support. https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/5xbf7s/if_youre_having_joycon_issues_but_the_lights_are/

khy posted:I'm Zelda crazy and I hear so many good things about Zelda but I'm not Nintendo crazy. I'm a little torn right now. Of the Switch games coming out this year, the only ones I care about are Zelda, Splatoon 2, and Mario Odyssey, and those are really far apart. Thing is, I also would kind of like to have my Zelda saves on the Switch whenever I do get one for when the DLC comes out, so I don't have to go back to the Wii U for that. But since I'm probably not going to buy a Switch until, like, next year, I'm just gonna get Wii U Zelda and I guess rebuy it and play through it again next year? That seems dumb but so does buying a Switch right now so

Yeah actually I wouldn't say a revision is for sure coming because they seem to be backing off this thing being a DS replacement but that just makes me less likely to ever want to buy one assuming a lot of the hardware probs I'm hearing about are real.

I want to play Splatoon 2 but if the wifi is actually bad like the OG PS4's or something then that game is DOA. Even if a sizeable number of people buy the ethernet port (lol) you're still going to be matched up with a bunch of people who don't have one.
