KingSlime posted:its the nintendo stockholm syndrome that I sometimes can't help instigating in posters around these parts (they make it too easy), truth is these people cant be reasoned with Or maybe the two sides are A) People who want to play a new video game console and don't really care B) People who are tech-oriented and are (upset? giddy?) that a new popular piece of tech has flaws and problems.

KingSlime posted:Actually it's more like you can like something and be aware of/acknowledge its flaws without getting triggered I agree with this. KingSlime posted:I enjoy Nintendo consoles but if you're well-versed with other manufacturers and consoles, their incompetence really shines at times I don't know about this. Tech hardly ever "just works" in my experience, and in my years of spending too much money on lots of dumb things, I don't think I would look back and point to Nintendo as an egregiously inept outlier. Some of their business decisions? Yeah okay I might stand with you there, but that's not what you're talking about, is it?

Geight posted:I can't find out how to make my Switch connect to my TV, everyone else says theirs just immediately connects when put in the dock, mine doesn't do anything and the Switch's screen stays on This is dumb but my first time, I had the dock power cord "plugged" into the USB port instead of the power port. Otherwise, yeah there's really only one way to put the switch in so it's not like you're likely to be doing it wrong.

Healbot posted:Switches are registered to an account, you have to walk that back first to use it on another Switch. Ah okay makes sense. Though you can add other accounts to the switch too (tried it today by adding my account to my friends switch, though we had he same games library). Also I was having wifi issues (I saw my network in the list, but it had zero strength... Meanwhile i also saw multiple neighbor networks I've never seen before. The switch would fail connecting to my network. Eventually I restarted the Switch a.bunch, undocked it, and then... It just worked. And my network strength went to two bars or so. Strange.

Personally I still don't really understand how people are scratching the screen in the dock. Is the little protector thing in there too hard/coarse? And I have only seen the one screenshot so far, and reports of minor scratches easily buffed.

The port is on the bottom so it can dock, and so there is space on top for the fans. we had this discussion like three pages ago guys. The switch can charge in its two most used positions.

parallelodad posted:Needing to charge while in tabletop mode is such an edge case though. How many non int'l flights or train rides are longer than three hours? Even in that case playing a game that long without taking a break seems unlikely. And even if you do intend to play that long, you can just hold the thing in the end. And finally, stand solutions to it with a passthrough are extremely cheap. The funny thing is that Nintendo didn't have to include a kickstand at all. If they didn't, then they wouldn't be getting all this flak. How many other tablets come with a kickstand built in? Drunk Tomato fucked around with this message at 22:18 on Mar 7, 2017 |

Wasn't a big fan of using L3 for boost or trying to dig my fingers into the SR/SL buttons to lean into turns. But I did better than I expected, especially being out of practice in these fast race type of games/FZero clones. I will definitely be getting those in the future WanderingKid posted:Does anyone else get a buzzing noise when they have headphones plugged in? Its the same charging from the 3 pin adapter, via the dock or on battery only and its driving me mad. When volume is off or very low, right? This happens with lots of my devices.

Spellman posted:Was hanging out with some non-gamer friends and they've all seen the glitches/defects video so the issues are definitely going viral. Sucks, but the Switch is just too good for Nintendo, so I feel they'll address some of them at least Viral memes literally ruined the US election, we've passed the point where they need to even resemble the truth. Don't worry about sales, the switch will do just fine. People seriously downplay the mobile / multi-on-the-go aspects, and how much they will sell the system in person.

LLCoolJD posted:Agreed. The Nintendo Switch's marketing is vastly superior to the Wii U's. This thing is all over the news, and people actually understand it. The device markets itself, too; people are going to see it out and about. I think it does well, maybe at the cost of cannibalizing the existing Nintendo portable business. I guess we'll find out. Makes sense to me that Nintendo would want to move towards tablet gaming. It's seems easier for other devs- no second screen, or 3d, or really any required gimmicks at all. I doubt they will continue with two separate lines. 3ds is doomed.

MK8 - So do you think they are going to limit tabletop mode to 2 players? Obviously 4 people on that screen would be hellish, but I'm hoping that there aren't any like hardware triggers when you switch playing modes, so that the experience can be the same anywhere.

Gyro depends on what position your con is in when the motors kick in, right? My problem is tht I play with the controller in weird positions sometimes and so I get messed up and have to use the joystick while i reorient my JoyCon to be facing straight ahead, THEN when gyro starts up it works super great.

Dr. Tim Whatley posted:Lol, that part is insanely easy, you only have to get around one guy. Yeah I'm real bad at stealth but it was really easy. You just drop a banana and run around the first guy, climb up top on the rafters, drop one from above near the guy at the door, and voila. Also I'd like to take a moment to mention that while the dock is hella lovely cheap plastic, I don't seethe with fury at it because while it is bad, it doesn't mysteriously scratch my device or impact my life or enjoyment in any way.

Also seems to me that It'd be a lot easier to burn out on something playing it for 10-12 hours a day every day for over a week, as opposed to an hour or two every day or so for a month. I see this with books too. When a new book comes out, often the super-fast bingers and skimmers who finish it that night are some of the harshest reviewers, while people who spread it out over more time are able to contextualize and see past any flaws in the writer's style.

Ursine Catastrophe posted:Gyro aiming is not bad but will absolutely take some getting used to, probably mostly just the proper muscle memory-- Zelda seems to have spoiled me by not taking gyro into account until I hit a button to "begin using gyro aim using the current camera location as the baseline", so that was loving me up a bit Hitting Y centers the camera behind your dude, I think. I found that Zelda totally readied me up for the Gyros. I used the joystick to turn left and right, but the gyro to aim. The gyro also resets if you use the joystick (like in zelda), so I was killing squids left and right.
