MKWii had a trash battle mode because they designed the courses for 12 player online matches over local 4 player matches. I am excited for the first ptoper battle mode since double dash!!!

I've barely touched the main zelda quest line cause I'm too busy doing all the other fun random stuff they jammed into this game. Zelda is crazy good.

So who here scratched their switch screen with the dock or is this the internet complaining about one thing some idiot did like bendgazi on the iPhone 6..

Edit: I ask this because my switch left morocco yesterday which means I will probably have it in hand on Monday and now I'm starting to worry about the scratches.

I am surprised that a week after the Switch is out, after all the anxiety over storage space and supported microSD cards, after all the teardowns people have done of the system, nobody knows at all if the Switch supports UHS-2 speeds or not.

Just want to say that Blaster Master is pretty drat good, and gets a lot harder once you reach a certain boss.

Also the GC controller was dumb and bad, I know one of you goofballs would pick that one.

It's me, I'm that guy. SNES second. But I never had the Wii U pro controller, everyone raved about it. The Switch pro controller is a ridiculous upgrade from anything I'm used to. The $40 wired one I bought at some bad store can go in the trash.

You cant scratch your screen unless you get a defective dock that has the front top part bent backwards slightly. If you put the switch in the dock and have enough gap at the front to fit a penny in all the way through top to bottom then you have a good dock.

Super Mario World is literally a perfect game. BotW, while extraordinarily impressive, is not.

Smart move from Nintendo to not have cloud saving, less people will want to RMA their half-broken hardware with their precious Zelda saves on it.

Hope the Blaster Master patch that enables the pro controller turns down the rumble a bit, because hoo-boy those things vibrate way too hard.

BM is really good though, and has suddenly become a metroidvania which I am super OK with.

Would recommend purchase!

Blaster Master protip: Press the R button on your inventory screen (+) to access the map once you unlock the region.

They don't tell you this anywhere.

Blaster Master tip: turn rumble off when playing on the tv, as for some reason the game is stupid and the switch will rumble in the dock, which is worrying.
