Hot drat. The Switch and Zelda are sitting in a truck right now and should be here in less than 12 hours. Time to go to bed.

I popped into Fred Meyers about an hour after opening. They still had consoles but all accessories were sold out aside from one set of grey Cons. I guess they only got 4 Pros and they went to the first 4 people.

My GF is very impatient and blasted through basically every bit of dialogue. When she had to return to the first tower, instead of teleporting, she laboriously climbed all the way back while swearing that it was "bullshit". When she got to the top, the old man made fun of her for climbing and not teleporting. loving GOTY.

Goddamn, watching videos of how people treat the Switch makes my skin crawl. Like one guy trying to take off (correctly installed) wrist straps and nearly rips off the T clamps. Have some goddamn finesse you troglodytes! We are truly descended from apes.

I want to take this thing out of the house. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MR63I6F/ref=ya_st_dp_summary I bought this because it seemed small and basic. I needed something to throw in my work bag but not junk up the rest of my stuff. It'll be here soon. I'll report back.

SeANMcBAY posted:Can you comfortably put a usb cord and some games in it? I'll probably go with this one since the official one seems to be sold out everywhere. Ehhh, it seems like it is just for the main unit. You'd be tossing it in a backpack or something right? Like you wouldn't just be carrying around that case by itself? I went for it since I won't be going mobile without my work bag and almost all my non-Zelda games will be digital.

SeANMcBAY posted:Yeah. I don't mind just throwing the cable in something else since if I was taking it somewhere where I'd play handheld for more than 3 hours, I'd probably have another bag anyway. I'll go with this one. Hori is quality. It just came in the mail. There are slots for 5 cartridges and a small loop that could easily hold a USB charger. Confirmed that the one that comes with the Pro fits in just fine. The outside is mostly rigid and the interior is very soft. Excellent. I also just applied the $10 Hori protector in about 4 minutes. Easy and invisible as always. I'm so bummed that I have to take the brick charger to work. We aren't allowed to use any unauthorized USB devices.

Okay, I am an idiot and electricity is basically magic to me. Could I charge (however slowly) the Switch with the USB C charger I got with my Nexus 6P phone? The cable is not third party or anything. Could I charge my phone from the Switch AC adapter and have a reasonable assumption that it won't catch on fire? I'm trying to only take one charger to work with me. If I could leave my Switch charger in the dock all the time and get a trickle from my phone charger, that'd be okay.

My dream Pokemon game is an action adventure title when you directly control the Pokemon in an arena fighter. They already accept each Pokemon only having a few animations and match them best with whatever move they have.

Zelda armor: I swear to god, if you don't dye your Zora armor red as a tribute to Mipha, you are a heartless monster. The helmet is easy to find if you know the clue and the legs are a reward for a Zora side quest. I think it only opens up after to regain control of the beast. The stealth suit, of course, is wonderful and I'm a big fan of pure white dye on it. Makes me feel like Storm Shadow. After FINALLY finding the second great fairy (Tarry town. I went all over that area except the grove) I'm happy to report that set bonuses are cool but the Hylian and Guard sets don't get one.

What's the battery life if you're only playing something like Shovel Knight? I'm thinking about only playing Zelda at home since it is such a hog and it's hard to notice details when I have sporadic glare.

Nice. Sometimes I have around 5 hours of downtime at work and Zelda kills the battery in 3. Looks like I'm buying Shovel Knight again.

The Switch is not a home console that you can take on the go. It's a mobile console that you can dock into your TV. It's the single best mobile console ever made and hyperbolic doomsaying gets us nowhere.

parallelodad posted:Admission here: I have some weird hangups in games. One being I hate guns, real or toy or virtual, and don't play games where you have to use guns in them unless it's possible to do the whole thing non-lethally like in good splinter cell or MGS games. Lasers or bows are OK. Not saying that's rational, is just the way I feel. I'm not even comfortable with the 1-2 Switch Draw minigame. Maybe you should stop playing video game, have a nice cup of tea and seek some therapy. I'm not being flippant here. That is very unusual.
