Hooked it up to my nice 4k OLED HDTV and the menus look surprisingly shittier than my regular old PS4, like they're purposefully using 720p assets (screenshots and icons and such) and upscaling them.

ChibiSoma posted:So aside from Nintendo being incompetent as gently caress, is there a reason why the Switch keeps forgetting the wifi, won't let me sign in with my NID, and has absolutely no indicators to tell you when charging the stupid controllers is complete? Or why the left controller seemed to come with a near-full charge but the right one had absolutely zero? Or why, in god drat 2017 it doesn't come with a god drat AC adapter?

What are the controls like in Snipperclips? Do you need to use the shoulder buttons at all? I'm taking my Switch over to someone's house later and I'd like to just bring the unit itself and not worry about the wriststraps if possible.

Loopoo posted:Just to lay this whole issue to rest: I could straight up put the Switch up for sale on Amazon right now for 279.99GBP. I would be getting 95% of the cost back, cause Amazon takes 10 or 15GBP as their cut. I am more than happy with losing that tiny amount of money for a solid 3 weeks of use (it'd sorta be like me having rented the console for 3 weeks!). My reasoning behind selling it now is 1) I get a lump of money back I can use for whatever (even though I'm not in dire need of money) 2) I literally won't touch it for a long time cause I've exhausted Zelda and there are no games coming out in the foreseeable future that I want 3) There's literally no stock anywhere, my console is in great shape, it'd be nice to throw it out there at retail price to save some poor fucker succumbing to the horrid prices some people are selling the console for (people are putting brand new and used - like new consoles up for 350GBP).

Ticks are actually bad. A lower tickrate is preferable. The guy who posted the graph didn't understand this.

I'm addicted to detached joy con mode, at least for Zelda. It's so comfortable. With sometime more intense like Splatoon I'd probably prefer the pro controller though.

inferis posted:I bought the charging grip on day one and have literally never used it. Unless you regularly use two sets of joycon or never play in handheld mode it's pretty unnecessary. If it's docked all the time you might as well just go with a pro controller.

Cojawfee posted:I don't know what Harlock is talking about but Jackbox needs to connect to the internet. Your switch will talk to Jackbox.tv to run the game. You and your friends go to jackbox.tv on your phones or laptops and punch in the code on the TV to join the game. The switch plays the game, tells the website what games to send to your phones and then gets back the scores and whatnot. You can't play it without internet.

Can you upgrade the amiibo gear or is it purely cosmetic? I funny hat would be neat but if it severely limits my defense then I'd never really use it anyway.

LethalGeek posted:Sure but my point is bluetooth has pretty tiny bandwidth and my experience trying to stream data and drive in inputs at the same time fell flat on it's face in practice. Probably because like any broadcast medium collisions happen which causes faction of a second pauses while it's resolved. Something you can't have while trying to, according to some random blurb I saw, send 1ms updates from the joycons to the machine.
