is it confirmed that a majority (if not all) of the Switches online functionality is on your phone?

no one knows anything yet, they keep saying "maybe" to any questions they get. the wiiu had usernames and fairly standard online so i wouldnt worry too much

Yeah but that seems like a really weird thing to keep under wraps when this thing is literally out in 6 weeks

Voice chat on consoles is basically dead anyway, but I can't help remembering my time playing Smash Bros online using skype in 2008 and the fact that Nintendo hasn't evolved passed that is incredibly lovely to think about

The mic on nintendo condoles/handhelds has only been used to blow up balloons in Mario kart for the past 15 years.

i think you can shout into it in pheonix wright. there's probably an obnoxious gimmick in one of the ds zeldas that uses it too. AND i bet in the world ends with you

uhhh, i think you might be right about TWEWY? My memory is hazy

TWEWY is the only game to use all of the Nintendo DS functionality to its fullest potential and it is a mother loving crime that there hasn't been a sequel.

lol I sat next to some British kids on a flight last year and when they saw my 3ds they made me download-play Mario Kart, I was their noob shy guy friend. The older one (like ten) said his friends call him the driftmaster. When we raced he kicked my rear end and said "You're better than I thought... But nobody beats the driftmaster."

It looks like Nintendo is finally ditching that Apple-wannabe smooth white aesthetic and going back to classic red and black. Also check out the game they're showing on the screen

My buddy Geno got an anchovy pizza while we were playing Maple Story and hated it, so he slid it under his couch and forgot about it for a few weeks.

I've played and beaten Mario 3 a few times and it's good, but I never understood the ppl who swear by it as the pinnacle of 2d Mario when SMW and Yoshi's Island exist

mario 3 just has better levels

The airships own, but those are like the only M3 levels I can remember offhand whereas I can pretty much picture the entire SMW layout in my big gamer brain.

Shovel Knight is 10 bucks on 3ds so I'm gonna buy it a 2nd time. Question tho, is the Plague Knight DLC still free with that purchase?

The 3ds had a terrible launch as well, and eventually built one of the strongest libraries in gaming history. Can that happen for the switch?? It could, but that library needs to be beefed up considerably faster than the 3ds, since the only other competitor was the drat vita. I still have a little hope for it at the moment but if E3/TGS is more of the same then I don't think I'll bother.

Exclusives don't mean much to me anymore. I like Nintendo games but not enough to buy a system just for them. 90% of my 3ds games aren't made by Nintendo and I want the switch to turn out the same

They could do the 3ds thing where the tablet is 2d and the tv is full 3d but I don't think the switch even does that?
