I haven't played Shovel Knight since it rereleased on my Wii U. Do I have access to Plague Knight and the newest expansion for free?

This whole console is really loving cool. It's very obviously what Nintendo wanted to do with the Wii U but couldn't. Only complaint is that the - and + buttons are a little hard to press, and it's hard to not press buttons and gently caress things up while pulling the Joycons out of their rails.

Yup.

edit: Actually, not the new one till April, since it's a timed Switch exclusive.

Yeah the next Nintendo system is going to be a large battery gaming iPad with a myriad of comfortable wireless i/o devices.

I drove to the stores today. No Switch consoles at Target or Best Buy. The Nintendo sections looked like the bread aisle at a grocery store before a snowstorm. If this were Christmas shopping season I would be less surprised, but this is March.

Does anyone have a problem with the B button either not working or thinking it's aways pressed? In Zelda, there are time where Link will run until the stamina goes away and then if I press the + symbol, I can't exit the menu. I'm thinking there's a flaw with the Joy Con but if there's a fix short of actually buying a whole new set, I'll do that.

First I've heard of this one, might be worth it to get into contact with Nintendo's customer support.

I am also kinda mad that you cant use single joycons to play Blaster Master, maybe when they do the Pro Controller support?

I think I read somewhere earlier in this thread that you can do this if you connect the Joy-Cons as single controllers instead of a pair in the home menu, there's just not an in game option for it.

They could probably localize what's in that game in a long weekend

What's more likely is this is part of what Reggie meant when he said they would have consistent big releases throughout the Switch's lifetime rather than dumping all the games out at holidays and having huge gaps in the release schedule

They're drip feeding games out on purpose so you have a big-ish game to look forward to every month

The best switch case by far is the special edition Zelda one and I'm glad I bought it on Tuesday at my local Walmart. Has enough room for 12 games, earbuds and the strap grips, and the console. Only shame is you'll need to carry the grip in your bag. It's also really sturdy, has a nice metal zipper grip, and is entirely rubber she'll isn't painted but molded so it doesn't wear poorly.

I think that is how I had it set up, but will try it again. I hate how it doesn't remember control configurations after coming out of sleep. If you are using a single joycon while playing Fast RMX, don't put the console to sleep (or pause so long that it goes to sleep), because controls are hosed up at that point and it recognizes joycons in vertical mode. So if you have the left one, then you have to go fetch the right joycon to use the home screen button and reorient them.

The horse rider is kind of bad looking due to no face and bokogoblin is meh looking too, but Zelda and Archer Link are nice figures.

The Puyo Puyo Tetris game the US is getting came out in like 2014. The one on the Japanese eShop is "Puyo Puyo Tetris S" and I guess has new stuff. The 2014 one certainly could've been a launch title, but eh, I'll live with the demo for a month.

Not translucent enough for my purple controller preferences, needs that atomic treatment. Still awesome!




Tons of grey joycons everywhere and can't find a neon set... and this happens to a neon set? Looks good though

Also, if anyone still needs a Pro Controller, PM me as I still have an extra from my backup preorder. Just looking to get what I paid for it after shipping/PayPal, unless you are in the VA/MD/DC area.

Same, but the instant I think "I could do that" I follow that thought with "even if you get them disassembled, painted to look that nice and reassembled, the tactile feel of them spray painted is probably going to be poo poo and you're going to end up buying another pair for normal use anyways".

Re: MicroSD cards, is there a good brand to aim for? A quick amazon search shows prices ranging from "I can deal with that, I guess" to "Way too good to be true", and it's been awhile since I've needed to hunt down SD card reviews.
