I think it's either of two things: they want to focus entirely on the Switch (so VC news soon) or, they are going to do a NES mini 2.0 for this holiday and are going to build up more stock.

I read so many articles about how the Switch game cartridges were so unnecessarily large that it was crazy, and then I finally got one and it's like the smallest game case of any system I've ever had.

They were talking about the cases, which are still drat small.

I dunno. New 2DS looks an awful lot like a low-cost budget model that Nintendo can churn out for as long as the 3DS library keeps drawing people in.

Oh man, I totally thought the New 2DS XL was some poster's joke. I'm not sure why.

Dear Nintendo why does your Eshop suck. Why can't I look at titles available. You literally can only view new things or best selling, other poo poo fades into obscurity and are unable to be shopped for unless you search for them specifically. How is this a good design?

You can do an empty search and see everything.

Still reallllly sucks though.

Also, whoever was talking about Taint Reaper a few pages back, I clicked on the link to his last post, and now every time I open the awful app or come back to it from sleep I'm taken to that post, so my taint is getting constantly reaped right now.

My son just came up with a Mario Kart course. It's a hot dog. And it is straight, there are no curves or loops. And the only way to win is to figure out how to get out of the hot dog.

That's a neat idea. It would go well with some other ones I thought up for a Sandwich Cup.

SOLD OUT.

Yeah, honestly I've been watching the page for it to come back in stock.

It actually looks like a good port -- by M2 of the Sega 3D Classics fame. It's got a soundtrack select menu, 4:3 with border art or stretched aspect ratio, local multiplayer, quick save and load, and three color modes for FF Legend (B&W, Game Boy Color, and washed out Game Boy green).

E: Here's a page with a bunch of screens.

If it sells as well as it looks like it's going to, maybe they'll localize it.

So, I bought this Anker charger, and it's fully charged, but does not seem to want to charge my switch at all. Either with the USB to USB-C cable or the dual USB-C cable. What gives?

Neither the Switch, nor that battery or its included cable are USB-C compliant. (Edit: almost nothing is, but the Switch is extra bad and even Anker is not 100% reliable. USB C is a mess because no one is regulating it.)

I've​ heard that battery can charge C to C with the Switch, so maybe try a different cable. Check Benson Leung's list.

But yeah. Officially you can only use Nintendo's plug to charge the Switch and anything else is a crapshoot.

i understand that some people do do this, but for the vast majority of console gamers the process is usually: someone is online, i can see they are online because of my consoles friendlist, i send them an invite through the console and we are put into party chat also on the console where we can either invite more people or other people can join freely and then join our game from there. like for playing cod etc ill just go look at the party tab, i can see who from my friends is playing and who they are playing with and then join them and their game all through that interface.

Stux...good?
