The switch should be able to charge via a normal tablet wall-wart right?

You won't be able to charge and play at the same time and you'll need a USB-A to -C cable

Wait, what? You can't charge and play the Switch?

You can if your charger is powerful enough, but the typical wall wart isn't.

Suffice to say, if you're looking to play Breath of the Wild with minimal performance drops, running undocked is the way forward.


This is a big problem

Can you get TV mode to output 720p? Unless that looks like crap on your huge flatscreen that might be better.

I wonder why they are taking their time releasing it in here. There's really no competition in the puzzle genre and localization must be minimal.

It took a long time to determine if rice balls should be localized as "hamburgers" or "jelly doughnuts"

That's pretty impressive that Mario Kart sold 8.6 million into a 14 million base.

We should stop posting like a bunch of crabs in a pot full of turds imho

You dudes are right about the Wii U gamepad being generally underused. Most games ended up with a map or inventory there and while that's nice it's not the most imaginative thing you could do with it. I don't think that makes it a poo poo console, the games are good and that's the best measure of a console imo.

I think a lot of nerds maths were wrong on what power bank you need.

Is battery % actually increasing while playing the most graphically demanding game available? That's nuts.

What warnings?

Warnings about noncompliant USB-C chargers delivering more power than the device asks for, or USB-C to C cables not handling power or data correctly. There are issues with some USB-C to A cables but from what I've seen they seem to more reliably comply with standards.

Decius posted:

It uses about 9 Watts when running at full speed in portable mode, it's rather efficient.

Yeah, I assumed from the official charger specs that it would be more power-hungry in portable mode, but I'm glad that I was wrong! Seems like a halfway decent wall wart or battery pack is sufficient to charge and play.

Yeah, Fast RMX has some cool rumble. There are a number of stages where there's strong air currents around the track and the rumble gives you this strong whirling sensation that actually makes those parts feel pretty scary, like you're gonna lose control any second.
