Beastie posted:Did you buy it on Amazon from third party? I think if I use the Switch's built-in formatter I could use the new SD card, but would have to redownload everything. Maybe there's an issue with the copying process? I'm just drag and dropping, I wonder if there are hidden files or something being left out. edit: when the prompt comes up for duplicate files I've been choosing "replace", which I think was suggested in one of the articles I read.

Cicero posted:I'm trying to transfer my poo poo to a new SD card and I'm doing something wrong. I've tried formatting the new one with the official SD card formatter, with Mac OS's built-in diskutil to FAT32, some tool called Tuxera Disk Manager to NTFS, and the formatter built into the Switch itself. The files from the old SD card I've copied to my Macbook, which I then copied to the new SD card after formatting. Instead of copying the files, use something to clone the partitions from old drive to the new, then expand the main partition on the new drive where "the stuff" is to use all the extra leftover free space That would solve the theory of extra/hidden files at least

Cicero posted:Yeah, it's a Sandisk Ultra 200GB. But I mean, the old one is a 64GB Sandisk Extreme. Is this a "Yes I bought it off Amazon from a third party" or "Yes I bought this from Amazon?" Just spit-balling but tons of fake SD cards are sold on Amazon from third party sellers.

Beastie posted:Is this a "Yes I bought it off Amazon from a third party" or "Yes I bought this from Amazon?" I had somewhat similar problems copying stuff for the 3DS until I realized that the formatter Nintendo recommended actually used the wrong format (you have to use FAT32 instead).

Pug Rodeo posted:I would have never thought I’d get into the interactive story genre, but after enjoying Gone Home after picking it up for Xbox when it was free and now really digging NitW I want to look more into other games in the same vein. What Remains of Edith Finch is pretty similar to Gone Home only with less lesbian sister and more just plain weird poo poo. You should deffo check that out.

Hasn't Nintendo made a concerted effort to never acknowledge anything in the cartoons as canon though? (I'm glad I'm not the only one who remembers that...  )

I bought this nyko stand for like  that has three adjustable angle and a hole on the bottom so you can charge the Switch while it's in table top mode. Folds up and fits in any Switch carrying case quite well

Mahoning posted:Nintendo should lower their game prices because the Atlanta Falcons lowered their concession prices I’m in love with this comment on that dumb article quote:Well it's not exactly news that Nintendo does what Apple does. They inflate their prices by keeping supply low. Their excuse is that selling more at a lower price would "devalue the brand". This is another way of saying that they'd rather make more money by having less people enjoy their product. Nintendo selling video games at full price is exactly like people dying because they can’t afford healthcare. I have ethics!

Electric Phantasm posted:I would go back to the PS2 models that they've been reusing forever if it meant them getting a Monster Hunter game with all of Worlds gameplay and QoL changes running on the Switch. Oh for sure, I would too! But throw in the expanded Prowler mode from XX, please. That's the main thing I'm interested in for XX and thus far there's not a whisper of Prowler mode being added to World.

Mahoning posted:Nintendo should lower their game prices because the Atlanta Falcons lowered their concession prices This is the kind of bad take I expect from a Something Awful Switch thread poster. (Idiot, AAA games are $60 because their budgets are hundreds of millions because—gasp—making AAA games is expensive, especially ones with a level of quality expected from companies like Nintendo, and devs need to recoup their costs somehow. Also, Super Mario 64 had an MSRP of $70 USD when it came out, which equates to $110 USD today. AAA games are actually comparatively cheaper than they used to be because their prices aren’t increasing with inflation trends. And a few years into a games lifespan, if a game was super successful, Nintendo will release a cheaper “players choice” version. That all said, even Nintendo dabbles in making or publishing inexpensive or free-to-play titles because they recognize that there is an audience for them... so your whole article is pointless because they already have “value menu” equivalent games.

Not as much as you might think, it's pretty good about automatically connecting to a 'platform' your cursor is close to. Generous er auto-aim I suppose At least, in the beginning, I'm sure it gets trickier

breath of the wild is very much zelda, but in a lot of ways, unlike a zelda game highly recommend you pick up Link to the Past and maybe Ocarina of Time one of these days too

Sakurazuka posted:What I think they’re talking about the motion controls. I haven’t played Breath of the Wild but I have played a ton of Odyssey and haven’t run into anything that required motion controls. The flower rings are a bit of a pain without them but still doable. I think the fuss is probably overblown. The most annoying thing is that unskippable screen every time you launch the game exhorting you to try playing with detached Joy-Cons!!!!!

Speaking of Breath of the Wild, I saw it passed Ocarina of Time and is now the 2nd best selling Zelda game behind Twilight Princess, which is either a really good or really bad Zelda depending on where we’re at in the cycle.
