There was a snafu with my best buy order but I had no problem rolling into Walmart when they opened at 6 this morning to grab a console. They had more neon consoles than grey and I bought the second of two pro controllers. Would recommend any homies looking for a switch to go to Walmarts that have recently switched to a 6-midnight schedule due to repeated stabbings after midnight.

Rirse posted:Well I can test myself in a few hours when Best Buy opens and I can go pickup my in-store order. I just wanted to ask first because my old bluetooth earbuds broke the other day, and if the switch doesn't support bluetooth speakers, I Just go ahead and get a high quality 3.5M one instead this time. I don't see any way in the OS to pair anything except joycons and pro controllers. The only way I can see it even possibly working is if your headphones have a way to connect to the dock via USB. There's definitely not a way to set it to discover and enter a PIN, though. I think 3.5mm is the only way to go for headphones. 3.5mm to BT adapters exist but I don't know if any of them are worth a drat.

Kawabata posted:I mean the money from the games they buy goes to Nintendo but it's not exactly the same. BOTW is not helping to move the Switch as much as it could obviously. The alternative would have been to release it exclusively for the Switch and piss off every Wii U owner enough to not buy the system or the game. I wonder what the attach rate for Zelda is. Every person I saw getting a Switch this morning bought at least Zelda and I can only assume anyone who buys the system without Zelda is just going to get it digitally.

What's the likelihood they're just sick of people using save files to break open their systems? I can't imagine it's a good feeling finding out your past three systems have the ability to play pirated software due to code injected in to a save file. We don't have a browser and I'd be very surprised if we get anything beyond online backups tied to accounts.

Uncle at Nintendo posted:I just sold A Link Between Worlds for the 3DS for 2 dollars less than I paid for it brand new. That's kinda how I feel, too. I'm getting Binding of Isaac on the Switch tomorrow because, with GCU, it's the same price as Steam's all-time low for the bundle. I have no idea how many copies of this game they'll eventually make and it's way easier to buy digital during a sale while reselling the physical copy. Doubly so if the game has a more limited print run. I finally relinquished my copy of the Metroid Prime Trilogy for about $30 more than I paid for it and used $10 of that $30 to get it on the Wii U when it was released digitally.

Anyone have any experience with the RDS System case that holds the dock and everything? Biggest complaint (aside from the awful smell RDS cases always have...) I've seen is that if you have the Joycons attached to the grip, the bottom-most button can get pressed and cause it to drain the left Joycon's battery. I'd just have the joycons attached to the console itself, so that isn't a problem, and I'd be sticking a Pro controller in there instead. Is the material the Switch itself gets jammed into towards the front abrasive enough that it could scratch the screen?Tender Bender posted:Who said it's laborious? It's just less convenient than pressing an icon in your home screen, and needing to keep every game you own stored near your console and also taking them with you everywhere you go. If the cartridges were the size of a SNES cartridge then, yeah, it'd suck having to pack them all up, but nearly every Switch case comes with some plastic pack that holds at least 4 Switch games and you generally get two of them in the cases I've looked at. One game in the system and eight in cases gives you access to 9 games and it's not worth gambling on whether we're gonna be able to connect to a server to redownload software in the future. Plus, when physical is the same (or cheaper in the case of GCU) price as digital, I don't understand why the four seconds you'd save swapping out the cartridge is really worth going all digital. At least not until Nintendo works out the kinks with their OS to allow you to choose where to save games. I'm biased about this though and I got probated once because I thought I was posting a similar point of discussion in the PS4 thread when it was actually the PSN Store thread. Probated before I even realized I had posted in the wrong thread. Bloodplay it again fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Mar 16, 2017 |

AlphaKeny1 posted:Apparently bomberman r is now almost 10 bux after shipping.... is it still worth that amount or should I just save it for something else?? Online play seems to have issues about 75% of the time I've tried playing. I've had incredibly laggy matches with players close to me and I've had flawless matches with 6 other Japanese players, so I honestly have no clue what causes the issues. If the developers can actually fix the broken online multiplayer, it is absolutely worth that price. If it remains broken forever, it really depends on the number of controllers you have access to and how much you think you'd enjoy a Bomberman campaign with ~50 levels and co-op play. Personally, I think it's pretty good and, when the online works, there isn't currently a better multiplayer game on the Switch. When it doesn't, it's a broken mess and not worth the time you spent looking for a game (usually isn't long, less than a minute).

deadwing posted:How did this argument escape from 2007 To be fair, their point makes sense when you consider we're talking about solid state storage, not discs. It's purely greed on the part of WB in order to make more per unit. I think it's a pretty scummy way to push the cost of production onto the consumer and will likely lead to other, larger publishers doing the same thing to their multiplatform titles. Definitely is not a good precedent to be setting, even if you are 100% into digital purchases. I have many friends who live in the boonies and must use 4-5GB data/month tethered to their cell phones because broadband isn't available. This can't be instilling consumer confidence with rural Switch owners regarding third-party titles in future. edit: And WB Games doesn't even have contact info other than a piddly online support form or social media, so good luck calling them out on their lovely practices.

Junkie Disease posted:How can it not cost more than a blueray? On the other hand there is no way this could have been a portable blueray player. Blu-ray is great at holding large capacities, but lacks the bandwidth to be able to properly stream most types of media. It's fine for movies, but the seek/transfer time for other applications like gaming are piss poor, which is why both the bone and ps4 just straight up install the games on hard disk drives now. Yes, you're right--it costs more than discs. That said, no one (outside of developers) really know the price difference between a 8, 16, or 32 GB cart. I'm more confused as to why the hell they didn't stick it on a 16GB cart and require a smaller amount to download, splitting the storage costs with end users. It's not wild speculation that more physical storage costs more because Nintendo has always charged market plus a little extra for themselves for physical storage. Junkie Disease posted:Send your gently caress Yous to https://twitter.com/wbgames?lang=en I haven't posted anything on Twitter for years and I feel like a gently caress you to WB isn't a great introduction to any friends that still happen to be following me.

Junkie Disease posted:I agree on all fronts. But you can kindly ask what is their deal. I asked Dunkin Donuts twitter what was their goal with the new veggie wrap. No reply but I feel I shared my confusion. Whether it's in a MicroSD format or soldered onto a Switch cartridge, the storage price shouldn't really vary much/all from a production standpoint. If the storage soldered to the carts is a higher speed than Class 10 specs, it might be more expensive. It all depends on the speed of the memory and the interface speeds (do the increased number of pins on carts allow the memory to be accessed faster than the number of pins in a MicroSD slot?) but I think the biggest factor missing in all of this is Nintendo's pricing on the carts. We need to know the following: WB Games exec posted:The difference between 8GB and 16GB is ______? 8GB. If the value is something ridiculous, let's say less than a dollar, gently caress WB. If the value is something equally ridiculous, like $5, gently caress Nintendo.

Prime was great when you could split it with 3-4 other people for $20/yr but paying the full Prime price now isn't worth it unless you buy a ton from them every year. I used it primarily for video games and the drastic jump in price ($10.99/mo?  even yearly is $100 if you pay in full) means you need to buy 8-9 $60 games every calendar year to save the cost of Prime. GCU at Best Buy is $30 for two years (less than 3 full-priced titles in two years to recoup buy-in) and doesn't end after the game has been on sale for 2 weeks like Amazon. I had Prime for almost 10 years straight but recently dropped it because Amazon's customer service blows and haven't looked back. Plus, it's frustrating that Amazon won't get their poo poo together to rid the site of third-party scammers.Amazon's still great if you live in the boonies but if you're even remotely close to a Best Buy, I've had much better experiences ditching Amazon altogether for video games.

Mahoning posted:I mean, sure, if Amazon Prime was only good for discounts on video games, then yeah, your price breakdown makes sense. But, there's like a ton of other benefits to it, not the least of which is evident in this very thread on this very day....they're selling their Switch stock to Prime members only. There are three tiers to product availability at Amazon: Are you in a Prime Now area? -> Are you a Prime member? -> Do you have a free Amazon account? Just because they started locking off more and more products behind a Prime membership doesn't constitute as one of a ton of other benefits, IMO. It's like people going to Sam's Club and feeling very superior to Wal-Mart shoppers. Let's not even act like Amazon Video is worth 1/100th of the Prime membership, either. Amazon's great if you live in rural areas but because they don't price match anything anymore (they will straight up make you request a return, send the item back, and buy it again at a lower price), there are way better deals to be found outside of Amazon in 2017. Jeff Bezos is the second-richest dude in the world--he doesn't need any more of my money. Ornamented Death posted:Technically you can still kind of do this, you just haven't been able to change or add anyone since Amazon redid the program and there's always the possibility they'll just remove the option entirely at some point. But they haven't for the last few years, so me and my crew have continued splitting the cost. I haven't been able to do it properly since 2012-2013. Any additional members I add to the account can only get 2-day shipping if they ship the item to my billing address. If I change the shipping address or add a new address entirely, it is only eligible for free super saver shipping.  Wasn't exactly trying to turn the thread into an Amazon debate. Just know that there are better options than mashing F5 on Amazon's website in 2017 to obtain a Switch. My local Wal-Mart doesn't allow shopping between midnight and 6 AM anymore due to an increased number of stabbings, so I waltzed in at 6:00 AM on March 3 and picked one up without fighting through any crowds. They still had about a dozen of them by the time I had gotten checked out with everything. If you're having trouble finding a Switch, I recommend leaving knives scattered around your local Wal-Mart and waiting a week or two.

FireMrshlBill posted:Yep, I moved to the suburbs, so most things around me were built up in the last 15 years. So ordering from Amazon doesn't rob a local mom & pop operation of money. I make use on Prime for pretty much everything other than food. Why spend $20 on something at Target when I can probably get it from Amazon for $15 and get it a day or two later, if it was the same price I would go to Target to help employ someone locally, but not going to spend more money if I don't need it immediately. Add in streaming service, video game discounts and unlimited cloud storage for photos and Prime is worth the $100/yr to me. I purchased this Switch case from Target for $10 less than Amazon (they finally dropped the price to match Target). Even in the event it was cheaper at Amazon, Target price matches Amazon and you don't have to wait for any shipping at all. Some B&M stores also have promotions that Amazon doesn't touch. I'm not wealthy enough to own Dash buttons. I have spent thousands of dollars with Amazon over the years so it isn't like I'm not aware of what you get out of it. Unless it's just  , everyone price matches and tax is the same. I'd much rather stop at Target or Best Buy and get it in ~10 minutes for the same price. I just happen to live in an area now where there are alternatives to Amazon and Prime is no longer a value for me. I appreciate everyone's civil discussion about this because I don't think I've recently seen discussion on any topic not turn into a complete shitfest after a few posts. Sorry to anyone who saw a lot of new posts thinking something cool happened with the Switch. I'm gonna shut up about Amazon now.

Real hurthling! posted:Ps4 got good 6 months ago If you have a PS4 Pro, maybe. I bought my PS4 in January of 2016. :\ I'm just glad Ni No Kuni 2 and Destiny 2 are coming out for PC because I'm giving my PS4 and games to my nieces/nephew this year as their Christmas present. I'm playing a bit of Yakuza 0 still and I have been playing Kingdom Heats 1.5 this week. Both of those games run at 60 FPS (except the KH cutscenes) so they're fine on the base PS4, but the other games I wanna play (like The Last Guardian) just run too poorly without a Pro. Here's some Lego City Undercover footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL2pm9bNvYY&t=350s Doesn't look too hot on the Switch, sadly. There's pretty bad pop-in and it runs 720/30fps (like the Wii U original) vs 1080/60fps on the other platforms.  Doesn't look like there are ever more than 4-5 vehicles on screen and rotating the camera seems to despawn traffic.

The PlayStation stops outputting video after a few seconds but there is very clearly poo poo still going on with the console/drive for another 15-20 sec after putting it in sleep. Then I hit the PS button, the controller LED is solid, and it takes about 7 sec to output video. The Vita and Switch are both much faster because they use solid state storage. The PS4 has maybe 120 hours on it so I doubt it's dying. Never have issues in games. Either way thanks for saying something because I had no idea the option was there and I've been restarting games entirely when going into sleep mode. Is there a recommended Bluetooth adapter for using Pro and Joycons on the PC? USB or PCI?

I never saw another person again during the rest of the race. edit: braking doesn't work.

My girlfriend picked up Puyo Puyo Tetris over the weekend and it's a lot more fun than I thought it'd be (even though the campaign is full of stuff that would have made me cringe if I were half as old as I am). We've probably played it a combined 10 hours since Saturday. Haven't even considered playing Mario Kart 8 yet Sadly, we also noticed our pro controller has an issue where pressing down is sometimes down-left and sometimes down-right, which is awful in Tetris. I still haven't sent in my left Joy con, either, so it means I'm going to wind up having to ship all of my controllers off to Nintendo to get them repaired in some way or another. I leave the console docked 90%+ of the time and it looks like there's a slight bend in the system itself, too, which might eventually need service. Out of two NES, a SNES, VB, N64, GC, GB, GBC, GBA, DS, DS Lite, 3DS, 3DS XL, two New 3DS XLs, a Wii, and a Wii U, I've never had to send anything into Nintendo before and I'm 1-3 or (maybe 0-3 if the warping gets worse) with Switch hardware. I really like the system, but the initial batch had pretty bad QC and I can't imagine it's getting better with them increasing production numbers.

I've spent about $140 on the same Mario Kart (with DLC) at this point even though I haven't played it once since getting Puyo Puyo Tetris due to constant connection issues. The Switch is definitely a better system if you didn't have a Wii U.Also bums me out I've had three separate issues with my Switch hardware and none with ~25 years of other Nintendo hardware. The two most expensive controllers I've ever bought (joy con and pro controller) are jacked and the entire system itself is getting curved to the point it looks like the screen is about to start popping up at the bottom-right corner.

Tender Bender posted:Don't buy a console if it doesn't already have enough games to validate your purchase. I've had every Nintendo system released in NA and they've all had a bunch of decent games in the first 6 months or so, including the N64 when games were $70 for a while. My most played Switch game is a port of a game that came out over 3 years ago. I don't think it's unreasonable to gamble on a Nintendo console's first year of games because it has paid off every time except with the Wii U. Is it possible to discuss the negative points of a console in its Games thread or would more people like to act as if my disappointment is a personal affront to them and I'm a big ol dumb dumb for not wanting to play a rabbids game?

Thom P. Tiers posted:What? I don't remember this at all. Mario Kart 64 was the first N64 game I bought that wasn't $70. Mario 64, Wave Race, and Shadows of the Empire were all $70 when I bought them. I think MSRP was $60 but retailers weren't keen on making a dollar or two on a $60 cartridge when they were buying disc-based games for the PSX and Saturn for much cheaper. Zelder posted:To be fair, like 8 of the 9 first party games that they've announced aren't to your taste so it was kind of a dumb gamble 1-2 Switch, Zelda, Snipperclips, Arms, Mario Kart, Xenoblade, Splatoon 2, and Mario are the 8 Nintendo games that were announced when I bought the system in March. I own 3 of the 8 and will get Mario when it comes out, which means I'll have bought half of the first-party games I knew about before buying the system. So no, I don't really see that as being a fair argument. Rabbids, Fire Emblem Warriors, Pokken, etc. weren't even announced yet. I'm hoping for Animal Crossing, Metroid, Smash Bros (that isn't just a port of the game I already spent $100 on), Kirby, Pokemon, Donkey Kong Country, Earthbound, Pikmin, Kid Icarus, or something besides a quick $60 port to be announced next week. That's what I gambled on. Wheany posted:Yeah, but you should wait until there are games that you want before buying the console. I didn't buy a PS4 until like 18 months after the launch. I didn't get a PS4 until last January, but I do most of my gaming on a PC so it hasn't seen a whole lot of use, aside from Yakuza, FFXV, and Kingdom Hearts.

Imagined posted:Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it only possible to delink your Wii U/N3DS and move your digital games to another console if you currently had possession of, say, the old Wii U and a new one? That is not the case with the Switch. You can do it but it requires a call to customer service. I've had a 3DS, 3DS XL, and New XL and sold each system prior to getting the new one. Takes a couple of days though.
