I’ve mentioned this before, but I bought a 2nd switch for this exact reason. My wife wanted to Stardew it up while I played something else.

Ugh. When AC comes out I’ll be buying 2 more Switches — one for each kid.

AC will ultimately be the most expensive game I ever buy.

There are charging complaints about the joycons??!?!!?!

Literally the only time i have ever seen the "battery running low" notification pop up was when i was playing BOTW from morning til evening for like 12 hours straight. Even then, the battery was only at like a little under half or maybe 1/3rd.

Sometimes they don't charge properly or reconnect to the switch.

Someone in this thread said youtube was on MoviesAnywhere and I got excited, thinking I could add that, and have all my movies on Switch. They still aren't unless I'm missing something. Really hope Switch gets 1 app that supports movies anywhere and netflix at some point.

This has turned into such a good system. I loved the Wii U and enjoyed all the first party games on it but it's nice for Nintendo's console to have too many good games to play.

There probably is. I know I can watch movies purchased on youtube.

MoviesAnywhere is a service that let's you link many of the most popular digital storefronts so you can watch your movies across all of them. (example: connect my itunes and vudu account to moviesanywhere and I can see all my itunes and vudu movies from participating studios on either platform)

I really love the handheld mode even though I don't take my switch on the bus or anything. Being able to curl up in a blanket on the porch while playing a game is nice.

Just posting from the console thread - https://us.battle.net/forums/en/d3/topic/20769618834

If you’re playing a necro on switch there’s a bug with curses, they stop working after a while. I’ve noticed it, after a few minutes my curse stops showing on mobs and effects stop working.

The game size is irrelevant. Even if overwatch was 100gb, you ship a cart with whatever chunk of the game will fit on the cart, and users download the rest. Plenty of games do it. Size is the last reason to not port overwatch.
FWIW Blizzard is developing a new console client that requires a full redownload of the game and one of the changes is a smaller install size on PS4

Yeah with YT I can watch (most of) my digital library on the Switch, if I desired.

Anyway is there any reason my Switch would suddenly start outputting to my tv in a lower resolution (like, handheld but blown up) and without sound when docked? Everything works fine in handheld mode, and I’ve restarted all the devices and sound/resolution is fine on other stuff I have hooked up to the TV. I believe it was even working fine the other day.

Add your Google Account to Movies Anywhere and your purchased movies will show up under the "Purchased" tab on the YouTube app.

Diablo 3 questions:

I started a witch doctor in adventure mode Expert and got him to 70, doing lots of the season challenges. Then I hit challenges that require Master difficulty so I rolled a monk in that difficulty and am having a rough go of it !

I can blast through normal hordes of mobs but when I run into blue and gold mobs i die a lot and clearing nephilim and bounties is quite hard. Gaining levels and power is really slow.

I also can't seem to access the challenge rift.

What should I be doing to speed up progress and get the final season rewards?

You can change the difficulty for any given character by backing out to the main menu. So you can do your Master (and Torment!) challenges with your Doc’.

Yeah, while in a season session, you can't raise difficulty. You have to back out to the main menu with "quit" first.

Witch Doctor is hella fun. Mine is mixing two set bonuses so she runs around with like 20 fetishes, drops Big Bad Voodoo, and feeds everything to a bogadile while flaming bats fly everywhere.

Yeah, it's not at all clear that Google Play Movies purchases are also streamable through YouTube. It's handy, though, as pretty every smart TV/streaming box/game console has YouTube but like none of them have a GPM app.

Difficulty question aside, the easiest way to quickly get new characters up solo is craft the Hellfire Ring and Amulet, they roll level 70 stats but are equippable from level 1, and the ring has an experience boost on it. Just wearing those and nothing else can get a character from 1 to 50 or 60 in a couple of minutes of torment 6 rifts before monsters start catching up to you and you have to start worrying about filling your other slots. There are things like Leoric's Crown and the level 23 Cain set that can also give you a little extra bonus experience, but its not that big a deal. Later on you can get Gems of Ease to bring level 70 gear down to level 1 to make the alt process even quicker.

Of course in multiplayer you can just join someone doing level 70 rifts and stand around and you'll also level up very quickly.

Blizzard can jerk people around all they want but I still say there's 0% chance Overwatch comes to Switch. Anyone who wants to play it def has it already and they've bitched endlessly as is about how much of a hassle it is to update 3 different versions. I doubt they'll throw a 4th one on top and make more work for themselves.
