Played some Overcooked with my partner. Hot drat are some of these stages hard to 3 star. I imagine it's easier with the full 4 players? Also the character unlocks are odd. Game you've already given me a wolf in a wheelchair, why would I play as new regular rear end person after that

Well maybe you shouldn't be slamming the switch into the dock as hard as you can you loving IMBECILE :smug:

Yeah I got the scratches from the dock when it was new and I was super careful every time but it's only on the bezels so I just stopped caring. It got scratched either way so I might as well slam it into the dock every time. By the time it looks super lovely there will be a new hardware revision anyway.

Call Nintendo and have them fix it. They just put a tiny block of foam inside it but it's super trivial for them to fix.

Pretty interesting how in the first few weeks of life, there were endless complaints and reports of new flaws in the Switch design almost daily.

Yet like a month after launch, and after the high sales figures were released, almost all of the complaints mysteriously vanished.

The bullshit / extreme rare: Dock scratching the screen, the JoyCon straps "breaking" the JoyCon when inserted backwards, the dock overheating the switch and bending it. The kickstand not working.

The Clumsy: bending the rail on the JoyCon after dropping the system

The real: Poor range on left JoyCon. Easy fix. Poor networking - seemed to be completely fixed after an update. Kickstand blocks charging port, but I haven't heard recent complaints about this.
Nerds are terrible people who want to bitch about everything and you should pretty much ignore them if they're making an issue of anything that sounds like this.

I represent the Philippines
Trip report: just spent 6 hours playing Overcooked with friends; really great if you have friends over and it's a beautiful mess when there's 4 of you trying to coordinate while another 4 people are watching and trying to be sous chefs like they're Gordon Ramsey (is that what a sous chef does). If Snipperclips is the game to relax with friends, this is the game to get stressed out with them. It's really hectic, and in terms of content, has far more of it than Snipperclips. We only got through about half the game in 6 hours (with some breaks from co-op to play competitive), while Snipperclips took us less than that to 100%. Incidentally, I think the Switch is absolutely the ideal system for this game, since even if you don't have a TV, you're all on one screen and don't have to divvy up space in portable mode.

I can't say if the fun scales down to 2 or 3 players, though, and I'm almost sure it's worthless in 1p.
