There are several things I prefer about the original for sure, sometimes I wish they would make yet another refined version, but I don't see it happening. It does get a lot of flak for sure. When I first started reading other peoples' thoughts about it on the internet, I was shocked, as it's my favorite game on the DS.
Playing the original, it was always my dream to play as Luigi and it happened, it was incredible. I remember all those "L is Real" urban myths in the original, so it was crazy. Plus, I enjoy some of the additional stages and bossfights, and the improved textures and polygon count are great.
I liked SM64DS.
I had arranged to take a half day and go in the office around lunch, so I could rest some. Clearly my brain had other plans, as I woke up at 5am. Guess it’s time for some Prime.

Anyone watching Lupin III Part V?
It's pretty great.
This blue eye perceives all things conjoined. The past, the future, and the present. Everything flows and all is connected. This eye is not merely seen reality. It is touching the truth. Open the eye of truth... There is nothing to fear.
Oh snap! Is the demo multiplayer?? I could harass your game, like I used to raise exclusively Dodo birds in Ark on Xbox. Speaking of, where the where is ARK?!

Niiiiice. This pleases me.
Edit: Supposedly ARK hits on Oct 1. For $50. Unfortunately, I'll be getting ready for Starlink. So that may not happen; should've released in the summer like E3 said.
I asked Nintendo Customer support something about the battery on the Switch and they said that it is OK to run the battery flat. Isn't that supposed tobe bad for Lithium batteries?
@DannyBoi Yes and no. When your Switch is ''out of battery'' and shuts off, it actually saved a little to prevent it from completely running out. Almost all modern electronics have this feature.
No, that's bad for NiCad. Here's something from TechRepublic
EDIT: What Octane said.
"3: Allow partial discharges and avoid full ones (usually)
Unlike NiCad batteries, lithium-ion batteries do not have a charge memory. That means deep-discharge cycles are not required. In fact, it's better for the battery to use partial-discharge cycles.
There is one exception. Battery experts suggest that after 30 charges, you should allow lithium-ion batteries to almost completely discharge. Continuous partial discharges create a condition called digital memory, decreasing the accuracy of the device's power gauge. So let the battery discharge to the cut-off point and then recharge. The power gauge will be recalibrated."
@DannyBoi In theory it is. But you cannot drain you battery completely, because it prevents you from doing so. The system shuts off before that happens. It's kinda like how the fuel gauge in your car works. Even though it tells you that the tank is empty, meaning you're likely to refuel your car ASAP, it actually doesn't mean it's completely empty. It tells you it's empty before it actually is, to prevent it from completely running dry. If that makes any sense. In the same way the battery indicator on your Switch doesn't reflect the actual charge left in the system. When it's ''empty'' and it shuts off, there's still a little bit of charge left.
Anyway, TL;DR, don't worry about it. If it runs out of battery, it's not an issue. Your battery is degrading anyway, how much you use it doesn't really affect it.
It's like the shady wristwatch salesman that walks up to you in the park and opens his trenchcoat
when i do things like that theres usually no wristwatch in sight

And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)
@Octane Yeah, get you man. I think Nintendo couldhave gone with a better low battery warning though. They copied Android devices with the 15% and 5% warning.
@Octane Well, Android devices such as a Samsung Galaxy note will give you a lowbattery warning at 15% and another at 5%. Seems strange the Switch woulduse it even though it isn't a tablet.
@DannyBoi Sure... but your point being? I'm sorry, I don't think I follow you. So the Switch warns you when the battery is low, what's the problem with that?
