I really want to get a Switch, but for some reason the game I'm most interested in is Skyrim which I've already invested a billion hours in on 360.

Yeah speaking of indie games I also really want to get Stardew Valley and Darkest Dungeon, two other games I also already own. I'd get BotW at some point for sure because Zelda is never not great. IDK why I'm not more interested in buying it first though.

Well I ordered a Switch and Mario Odyssey. I can't believe they actually had the things in stock on Amazon.

Are you saying my cheap USB electrical plug is the reason my phone's battery is about to explode?

DD is really tedious on my laptop (gets too hot, have to plug in the mouse, etc.), so it would probably still be better even with tiny text. I could limit it to just docked play anyway.

The only way to play Skyrim and not go insane is to act like you're in a movie. Ride your horse everywhere or only fast travel via carriages. Don't hoard cheese wheels. etc Also I only pick up items that are worth at least 10x their weight. This is key. Otherwise it takes like 10 trips to fully clear a dungeon. I really want to replay my favorite build that mostly relied on illusions and 2-hand axes.

Beastie posted:Question from an overall RPG noob: There are merchants in every city, and you just gotta figure out the optimal route and schedule for selling your stuff. I forget how often they replenish. Sell weapons/armor to a smith, and dump everything else at the general goods store (like Belethor in Whiterun). If you load up on loot again before the merchants have replenished their cash, go to the next city in your rotation and sell there. If this gets too tedious and you feel like you'd rather be out smashing trolls, then just go do that. There's always more loot. If you actually enjoy the looting/selling routine more than smashing trolls, then there's an entire skill tree (speech) that helps you get better deals and even increase merchant gold reserves. You can also do the thief guild quest line for similar perks.

teh_Broseph posted:If you can game while exercising either your exercise is too easy so you can focus on the game or the game you're playing sucks cause it's not interesting enough to focus on. Stick with catching up on your TV shows (Hulu on Switch!) unless you have a busted leg and can only pedal the equivalent of 5mph or something. I think you'll find that your exercise is too easy if you can focus on a TV show.

Al Borland Corp. posted:Square Enix considering Seiken Densetsu collection for English release. (also the SD2 remake being considered for Switch) quote:Oyamada also wonders if westerners will understand Seiken Densetsu 3 is linked to the Mana series since the title has never received any kind of official release outside Japan. This seems very out of touch with their US market. The only people who have even heard of the Mana series have already emulated SD3.

Man it would be kinda cool to go digital with all of my Switch games, but that's not really viable is it? They take up a lot of space..

Can you cycle between multiple SD cards or will that confuse it somehow? Like, this one is my RPG card, this one is my indie card, etc.?

This is tough. I've always loved collecting physical copies of games, but I also appreciate my digital Steam and 3DS libraries.

Which controller would be best as my #2 if I want to do a lot of local coop? If I get a pro am I gonna wish I had more than the original two joycons?

Well drat maybe I should just get the pro as my #1. Wouldn't want two lovely controllers.

I can't bring myself to sell any games, even the bad ones. I still regret selling my NES zapper when I was like 8. And I rebought N64 Army Men Air Combat years later after also selling it as a kid. I still haven't replaced Donkey Kong 64 though...

Oh yeah and I regret selling my blue GB Pocket. That thing was badass. I just remembered though that I found another NES zapper at an estate sale a while back. Go to estate sales if you want old video game stuff. Every old couple has a NES in their attic that hasn't been touched in decades.

I went to Gamestop for the first time in like 15 years to buy another pair of Joycons and lol, they charge $10 more than Amazon and one of the buttons is messed up. I know they were selling used games as new a while ago, but do they do that with accessories too?

I'm still going to keep using my 3DS as my portable option. The Switch is cool for playing around the house, but I can't imagine taking it on the bus or something.

$20/year is practically nothing. I won't even notice the annual charge on my card. If it comes with retro games like they promised, then it's gonna be great.

How is $20/year not a bargain? You pay for online service with consoles now. It's just how it works. $20 is below average.

Is the blur supposed to be like a forced-perspective/tilt-shift thing to make everything look miniature? It kinda looks like that.

I tried the DQ Builders demo, built some buildings, collected some resources... I can't tell if I like it or not. Is there ever anything like a tower defense element to it?

The motion controls in Odyssey are pretty fun but not at all necessary to play the game. I just don't do fancy hat throws when I'm playing mobile.

If crossbow motion controls are the same as regular bow motion controls then I'm totally gonna do a crossbow 2-hand axe build. I still haven't played the expansions.
