I assume they need the dock and everything, and full trade in value includes you having the box, right?

DO YOU HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUND OF ME PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK.


Yeah, no box, but they need all accessories, cables, and chargers. So, both Joycons, the joycon rails, the dock, the hdmi cable, the charger, and the joycon grip.

This all reminds me I've been putting off getting rid of my wii u to finish bayonetta 2

But playing bayonetta 2 makes me upset because it's not bayonetta 1

i wonder if I'd even get $20 for trading it in.

If nintendo actually does start releasing SNES games they've made the case for Switch Online and added immensely to the switch library.

maybe they were delaying them intentionally so that they could extend the popularity of Online later in the console's lifespan

I think I got $15 for it without the original box at a local store a few weeks ago.

Okay Switch thread. My buddy FINALLY ordered a Switch. He wants to know what games (besides BotW and Mario Odyssey) he should start out with.

So far I've got:

Celeste
Golf Story
and a bunch of the Arcade Shumps (because he loves those)

I need some more games though. I'm blanking right now.

Blaster Master Zero 1 and 2 are good options and cheap. Maybe the Mega Man/Mega Man X collections?

Mario x rabbids is better xcom and goes on sale. In fact there are some good sales often so dont blow up a full priced backlog right away

Flip Grip for the shumps if he hasn't already bought it: https://www.fangamer.com/products/flip-grip

After that it's kinda depends on what genres he likes, the backlog of excellent ports is pretty long now.
Shovel Knight
Hollow Knight
Dead Cells
Into the Breach
Undertale
Slay the Spire
Mark of the Ninja
Yoku's Island Adventure
Katana Zero
Octopath
Xenogears
Steamworld series
Splatoon
Smash Brothers
Mario Maker
...and so on.

Someone found a patent Nintendo filed for a SNES style controller. Nintendo isn't hinting at anything.

It's purely grammatical, but it still shows how lovely games "journalists" are since that's like a major thing with journalism, accuracy of the information you provide.

The information found hints that SNES games are coming, Nintendo themselves haven't hinted at a drat thing.

you're being very silly,

it's a hint that SNES games are on the way because the last time they released games onto the system they made NES controllers to go along with them so it's very reasonable to assume that these controllers are being made in the leadup to an announcement of SNES virtual library.

Considering the "hint" was literally only found cause some nerd had a Google alert for nintendo fcc, I'm gonna say the headline is off base in an industry dominated by announcements, leaks and rumors.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

I did that years and years ago with one of the Phoenix Wright games, where I bought it not understanding exactly what it was. I spent an embarrassing amount of time "skipping the intro waiting for the game to start" before starting over.

My first and last visual novel ended like that, just with "stops playing the game in sheer frustration" instead of "starting over" :v:

If anyone jumps on that trade in for the new batter life model, let the thread know if they allow the profile/save transfer to be done in store. I have a feeling this would be a hassle even if they allowed it.
I think you need the current memory card on the old switch, and a mem, card on the new one big enough to hold the data? It doesn't transfer all the game data as well, does it?

I "started over" for about 10 minutes, fell asleep with my DS on my chest, then sold it to Gamestop the next day.

So, basically the same thing.

That's one of those things that I think will depend on the staff at your particular location.
