I’m very happy to finally get YouTube. I’m going to make great use of this app on Switch.

Where y'all at anyways? I want to hear about how the YouTube app is objectively harming your switch experience, friends!

If you're so inclined, the Japanese eShop now has a preorder up for the Senran Kagura pinball game. It's a full price release unlike Reflexions. There's a 10% discount for preorders. 4800 yen for the base version.

Serious question: why would you watch YouTube on a Switch instead of a phone or a laptop? Unless you haven't got those things, in which case, tube away

Next year there will be a kickstarted game called Hazelnut Bastille, which looks to scratch that LttP itch.

You're weirdly obsessed with this. Maybe you should relax by watching some YouTube videos on the Nintendo Switch, now that the YouTube app has ruined all the games.

OMG I Hate you. I have been grinding for this ring since the game launched and have spent like 10s of thousands of shards on it from the vendor and still not gotten it. I do, though, have all the other rings I guess :/

Oh man, I got it as a drop at lvl 47. Just reading though if you make a necro alt and then gamble for it at lvl 11 it’s the only legendary ring in the pool so odds apparently much better? Ymmv I haven’t done that so...it’s an awesome ring.

E; you can see the loot pool and calculate chances here https://www.d3planner.com/game/kadala of course if you get a lvl 11 ring you have to use the cube and get the power as a passive instead of wearing the ring - I need to do that actually heh

It's just a convenience factor, really. No reason not to have the option when the 3ds did both just fine. It's especially neat if you use the system docked, makes it easier to switch between movie night and game time without changing devices, inputs etc. All other consoles can and have been able to do it since last gen ya know?

Now if Nintendo could just give us the 3ds's very robust playlog and folders, we'd finally be up to par with last gen hardware OS features!!

YouTube app seems to support 60fps video, which I don’t think was supported on Wii U, so that’s nice. I’ll probably make the most use of the built in stand watching YouTubes.

Hey, are you listening to a word I'm saying?
Hey buddies and pals, I have to be on a plane in the morning and I haven't been in the loop for Switch releases for the past couple months. Is there anything interesting that's inexpensive and a decent commute game that I may not know about, or should I stick with my plan of grabbing the latest Picross?

The Switch screen is bigger than my phone and I always have both on hand.
If I'm going to be away from places to charge, it's nice to spread battery usage as much as possible.

My Switch came today! :woop: Finally, I'm living in the future!

I just started up my Gamefly subscription too, so Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker should be here pretty soon. Now to decide what $15ish game I want to get on the estore. Anyone have any recommendations? I was thinking Stardew Valley (which I enjoyed on the PC).

I think it's a combination of crappier d-pad and a loss of the top-screen preview.

I only just realized now how much the preview actually added to the experience. The gradual and subtle preliminary coloring in as you fill in the spaces, and these couple seconds after finishing but before the final reveal in full color where you get to race the c lock in guessing what the picture is before the game tells you. Actually like half the fun.


Man, i'll probably play through e1-7 again in total before getting to finish S1.

I dunno, it's hard as is to go back to pre-e7, where they finally give you a "mark space" button, different tile animations and a medal incentive for going hint-less.

I want all of these backported to every picross game actually
