Why does everyone want Bluetooth audio? What would make that better than regular wireless headphones? In my experience with Bluetooth, it has way too much latency to be useful for game audio and it's not like you can watch movies on Switch.

I think this is a dual stick vs gyro aiming thing where there's just two feelings on it no one really has to explain. Except the ones who are plainly wrong, those morons.

Friends, I spent two hours yesterday driving to every store locally to find a neon switch. Nothing. No switches of any kind. This morning, i saw that target bundle, but I hesitated. Then, I checked istock this afternoon. Local target, multiple neon switches it said. I drove safely, but I drove fast. They had five in stock. All neon.

I am now a proud Switch owner :)

Also, if you're looking my guess is that a lot of targets got switches today.

Finally, what speed SD card should I get for the switch?

Whatever the typical is these days, what is that class 10? 80MB/s type stuff.

It doesn't really matter much

Honestly I'm probably better with a gyro than a mouse at this point due to hours and hours of splatoon. I mean my aim has always been mediocre forever but the technology works just fine.

People crapping on Splatoon's single player never played the last boss. That was top tier work right there, even if the rest was just ok.

Splatoon outsold edit: god drat everything on the Wii U in Japan so there's why there's SO MUCH SPLATOON.

Also because it's good.

I might have to actually care about voice because of splatoon's salmon run would be good with some chatter.

Other modes would just be me screaming at the rest of you for dragging me down in Ranked.

If you like really hard games, Has Been Heroes is it at least starting out. I'm just barely pulling this off against bosses so far.

Ok, this just got weirder. I tried a whole new set of JoyCons (I wanted to get a second set anyway for 2/4 player) and the same thing. Is there some weird fault where the Switch itself won't pair with the right JoyCon, but will with the left? It just seems strange.

The connection pins on he switch must be bad, sucks.

Just plopped down some money on getting a Switch today at Gamestop, it comes with Arms and a really lovely looking game called "Has Been Heroes". Was going to get one from Amazon but they increased the price on me. Too bad I had to get a poo poo bundle, I wanted to get Mario Kart and Zelda BoTW :argh:
Has Been Heroes has been fun for me so far. If you're into rogue likes and/or tower defense games that is

I still don't know if the whole neo turf masters thing is an inside joke or not. I bought it thinking people were serious and it is loving terrible. The only way you would like it is if you played it when it came out and you are on a pure nostalgia trip.

I never played it before and was surprised that I've been enjoying it. It will be in the pile of games I play when I need to kill time out of the house

For those of you asking about more dream courses there was a group of people who really put in some time and made a game grumps hack to the rom with about 150 new levels. From what I saw the levels actually had some thought into them and were not just a bunch of Mario maker type bullshit. They were able to play through them no problem.

Does anyone else have a problem with the e-shop not working the first time you try to boot it up, every time? I launch it, get an error, then have to back out to the home screen and launch it again for it to work, every single time I want to use it.

This is the first time ive ever heard this.

Brought my switch on my trip and it's been awesome. Hooked it up to my parent's TV to show my mom 1 2 switch had a bit of a reception problem but the thing was behind the TV next to two routers 😛. Way too much 2.4 ghz back there, had to move it out a bit.

Weren't they supposed to have fixed that? I bought my switch sometime after they supposedly fixed the left joy con, but I have issues with it all the time

What I was experiencing was a limit of wireless technology than a switch problem. I can replicate the same kinda issues sticking a laptop and phone right next to each other. I'm talking a couple inches of space

Hit the connect button on the controller's top and tell the machine to pair to it. Nothing special

how does the snes mini cost less than a switch dock?

are they selling this at a loss?

Cause it's just a little cpu and ports. The dock is expensive cause all USB C to hdmi docks are pricey for whatever reason. Even not Nintendo ones in Amazon are about 60

Finally got one of these. Are there any good multiplayer games yet other than Mario Kart that can do 2-player with the joycon halves rather than needing a second pair?

You should absolutely get snipperclips if you have someone to play it with. I am not being ironic, it is hella funny playing that with a 2nd person
