Pro tip for all you new switch owners: it has terrible on board wifi. Real bad.

My Switch has better wifi connectivity than my PS4. That thing is bad at wifi.

Lmao there are never sales on first party digital games.

I'm going physical with the switch for two reasons:

1) you can't sell digital games.

2) physical games are basically the only ones that stand a chance of getting discounts.

The upside of the shortages in the US is that you can be pretty sure any Switch you buy now will have the fix for the joycon connection issue. Here they have been consistently in stock for a long time, so I am not as sure.

Still holding out for a game that is a bit more must-have to me (Skyrim may be it, as I haven't played it before, and it seems perfect on the perfect considering perfect perfect perfect).

How can you tell? I bought mine in June and it hasn't given me any trouble but I don't know For sure :ohdear:

I guess the thing I don't understand is why don't they run the patch that lets you backdash rather than seeking out unicorn controllers?

DLC Inc posted:

if the N64 controller copyright means an N64 Classic is in the pipeline, I can't begin to imagine how they'd pad out 20 games.

The problem being that not only are many of the Rare games off the table, but what I'd argue are superior releases of certain games (Ocarina, Majora, Star Fox) are on 3DS anyway and many games like Yoshi Story, Kirby 64, and Mario Tennis just flat out aren't that great or are inferior to the sequels.

I'd rather have a GBA or even a GBC classic tbh.

If they release an N64 classic that only plays Mario golf I'll buy it.

Sonic Mania comes out on all consoles including the Switch on the 15th. At $20 I'm gonna be getting that for sure

edit: In case anyone forgot Mania is the 2d genesis-like title, not the 3d one that's probably going to be bad

I did not forget. Never forget. Sonic Mania is one of the reasons I got a Switch.

It's gonna own.
