Keep it up son, take a look at what you could have won


Never mind the pro controller, they need to add full touchscreen controls to Let's Go. I keep jabbing fruitlessly at menu options like a clown.

Just trying to first time setup a switch and when it brings up a keyboard for a wifi password or if I skip that, the user nickname, it crashes with error code 2162-0002 which seems to be a generic error code for when poo poo goes wrong. Couldn't find any instance of the problem being tied to a keyboard coming up, though. Should I just exchange it for another one?

Not sure how long it'll last but apparently Diablo 3 on switch was incorrectly marked down to 17 bucks at Walmart in store along with doom and wolfenstein being lower than usual, going to check my local one and see if I can score at least Diablo.

However, to sit there and say that not being able to use the Pro controller for one game is Switch ruining is kinda ridiculous.

Good thing no one said that!

A Switch is a borderline purchase for me right now so I might wait for more games I want before purchasing one. That’s all. It wasn’t intended as an attack on God’s One True Handheld.

I WAS thinking of getting Poke'mon Let's Go! Eevee (apparently that's the "definitive" one?) but I remember that I've found every Poke'mon game tedious and boring since I played the DS titles. The random battles in single player are so uninspired and stories tend to suck. But this one messes with the formula though?

There are no random battles and that’s what got me interested. It’s much less tedious traveling the world and capturing Pokémon. There isn’t a definitive version, just choose based on if you like Pikachu or Eevee more. You can get the other versions exclusives through trading or Go.

I would have been so much more likely to buy the Let's Go Pikachu or Evee games if they had made the map Johto + Kanto and not made the online options much weaker than the previous Pokemon games. I hope the quality of life stuff like no random battles is kept for the mainline game next year.

Yeah, I really hope they keep visible Pokémon on the map for gen 8. Make everything else like it was in Sun/Moon, I just want that change to stay.

Same.

Does anyone know if repel is still an item in the Let's Go games? Seems like they would have to change what it does or just eliminate it.

Happy Birthdays. You create a little world and all you can control is the temperature and elevation of the landscape. but over time, an extremely long time, life develops and evolves on your world.

My Walmart sucks and has crap for game selection so Diablo wasn't there but I got doom for switch for 12 bucks. YMMV of course but hey thanks Walmart employee for just shrugging and ringing me up.

I got Diablo 3, and i’m loving it. But I want to do online co-op as much as possible, so i’m curious as to how the matchmaking is structured.

In adventure mode, to match with another player, you have to be using the same difficulty setting, and be on the same chapter? Or even on the same quest? I found Normal difficulty too easy, and so its on hard, and im wondering if rhats affecting my chances at finding another match.

Shoot. Broforce isn't crossplay it seems. That makes way less interesting, only person I can play it with has it on PC. I suppose finding whomever online works fine, but it's not really what I had in mind. Oh well.

It is an item but I haven’t used it yet so I’m not quite sure what it does.

For Diablo 3 I'd recommend a melee like barbarian, crusader, or monk at first to get the hang of stuff and they take less damage. Maybe watch a couple of videos of the classes and I'm sure some others would recommend range. It really doesn't matter a whole lot, its fast to level and after a couple of hours of playing unless you have a weird rear end gimmick build that requires a certain set of items you get a general gist of how they play.

Just keep in mind if you're playing the season you only get one haedrig's gift set so before you open it be sure that's what you like.
