Yeah I get it if you can post things from the switch to YouTube, that would be cool.

But drat every other screen I own outside of maybe my thermostat is better than the switch.

Is that functionality perhaps coming? Maybe the app is like a bridge towards that, eventually?

No, that's what the video record feature already does. The YouTube app is closed to itself.

Game Over
Return of Mido

The only reason I'm kinda happy about the YT app is that the Switch's screen is bigger than my phone's screen, and I sometimes like to watch videos in bed before I go to sleep. So having a bit larger screen works for me.

Will I use it a ton outside that situation? Probably not because I have monitors to watch videos on. But for that specific use I'm happy.

It feels wrong to me that a new Tetris game is a PlayStation exclusive. I've always associated it with Nintendo ever since the original Gameboy. It's a shame because Tetris Effect looks gorgeous.

I like my switch well enough but some of the best games ever made are on the PS4.

SoulsBorne
Uncharted
Spider-Man
Dad of War
Horizon

Multiplayer games that actually use 2010 tech like partying.

The Tetris Company has very weird rules and so each system now can only get like one tetris game per generation. I think puyo-puyo tetris may be the one for swtich.

They also only allow games that conform to their current ~Tetris guidelines~ so older stuff like Gameboy Tetris will never, ever see a rerelease.

Has anyone got any recommendations for a drum controller for Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun?

Afaik the only way to get the official ones is to order off somewhere like amazon.co.jp or play-asia. The 3rd party HORI controller wasn’t going to be imported either, last I heard. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

It plays really well, but I do sort of hate the music and the sound effects of the characters. I would like a two player marathon mode too, so my partner and I can just play and she doesn't get mad at me for wrecking her.

This video is amazing and shows part of why the Tetris Company is so controlling. A summary is that the guy that created Tetris didn't get paid anything for the game for the first like 25 years it was being sold. Worth the watch :)

Actually a first playthrough of a sick game like bloodborne would lose a lot of its impact on a tiny 5 inch screen. Some games are just meant to be enjoyed on giant glorious displays, even if just once

That game drips atmosphere like no other

So whatever happened to those "special deals" that Online owners were supposed to have? Are there any discounts or is it just a stupid NES controller?
I'd like to get a bunch of smaller games on my Switch, since I use it a lot lately, but right now I'm looking for something addictive, to pass the time at work when nothing is happening. Are there any recommendations? Maybe not even very good games, just something with lots of replayability/levelling, like Hyrule Warriors or XCX2. I own and beat both of those games, but they aren't really for me (the former gameplay-wise, the latter is too anime for me)

I caved and got Diablo, have never played the game before. Is there a good "things to know for noobs article?"

Most of what I find is from the 2012 release and from what I have gathered from this thread, the game is extremely different now.

Disagaea and Diablo can both be played for an eternity.
