I thought that using X and A was kind of clever, since it gives you both layout "styles" at the same time without having to actually rebind anything.
XA is the same, and in some cases better (since it allows you to distance your thumb from the right stick). There's absolutely no reason to complain about it unless you're some hosed up weirdo who overreacts to everything. There's 100% chance the dude didn't actually know about using X as B when he made the initial post and is just doubling down on it so that he doesn't look like a complete idiot (that's going well).

Literally unplayable. Now Nintendo is dead as poo poo. What were they thinking?

Oh look, a mistake made in the past. That definitely means the same mistake made now is just fine!

The dog bone controller was also awful. And I'm not saying this does or ever did have any bearing on Nintendo's viability. Plenty of fools were around back then to spend money on that too.

dlc1 (the trials) sucked imo; the combat is not the game's strong suit

dlc2 (the champion's ballad) was pretty great though I didn't actually finish it

I got a Switch back in November and so far all I have is BotW and Bayonetta

I finished BotW and then bought the DLC but I'm wondering is there a good game I'm missing before I give the thing to my nephew?

What kind of games do you like?

The Switch has a really strong catalog right now. Are you into RPGs? Platformers? Strategy? Action? There are also a ton of indie games available for it as well as plenty of AAA stuff.


Just to throw something out there, if you don't have Mario Odyssey I'd definitely recommend that one. It's a top 5 Switch game I think. Also, Mario Kart 8 is really good. There's not a ton of content though. I mean, there is and there isn't. You can see 90% of the content the game has to offer in a couple of hours, but it's a racing game so you can always get better and I'm sure there are plenty of people who have happily put in dozens or hundreds of hours into it, etc.

The Xbox thread is the other way around actually. People come in asking reasonable questions and are run off by the regulars telling them to throw their console in the trash.

It’s pretty crazy to think that Reggie’s tenure oversaw the two greatest console launches of all time and one of the worst console and marketing flops in the history of video games. Oh and that’s without mentioning the DS or 3DS.

I know Reggie’s not really responsible for that stuff, but hey, what a wild tenure he had. Talk about feast or famine.

I think it was something putting their Switch in the oven and then telling the thread about it, rather than the other way around. I've seen many kitchen appliances and even a small TV lost to ovens.

I don’t think so, I think people were just loving with the “stripped off the matte finish” guy.
