@Eel It's mainly all luck, and a LOT of moving around lol. It was fairly nice today, and the downtown area where I normally participate in Cday had plenty of other players still when I was out. Normally most of them play earlier on. My Sunday schedule usually doesn't allow for that, unfortunately. I'm just glad that they expanded the time slot. It makes it easier for me to throw some time in.

@Heavyarms55 haha it feels good to break a game doesn't it? Man sunshine has been a lot of fun lately brings back old memories... although galaxy is still my favorite. About at the 60 star mark with galaxy. Doing 64 last since I played it recently before all stars was announced and I haven't played galaxy or sunshine since like... 2010? So definitely a weird nostalgia trip. 64 was my first game ever what was your first game?

@Ghostchip Prior to 3D All-Stars it's been a while since I played Sunshine. I gotta say, it's quite nice to get back to this one! I'd say Galaxy is my favorite 3D Mario as well. Really like 3D World and Odyssey too.

@Ghostchip My first game, depends how you define it. I played my father's NES as a toddler. But when I got a bit older I got my own Game Boy and PS1. The first games for each were Pokemon Blue and Test Drive 5. But honestly I can't remember exactly which came first.

@Heavyarms55
I have question about Hot spot wi fi from Android smartphone.
Even i have connected my Switch with my smartphone Vivo to get Online signal, it still not allowing me to play Online for ACNH and other Switch games with Online feature.
I always get disconnection for doing that.
Was that because different signal or Online Service was not compatible with Smartphone hotspot ?

You will not believe this. 😲

Just finished my first surrealistic painting I called it "The Sand Populator".

@Heavyarms55 pokemon's a great game to start with lol. My first one was pearl (I'd never had a portable console until then) and man did I love it. I dunno why people hate on sword and shield so much the writing is sub par but the game is as fun as other ones with a fun twist of the wild area. And instead of releasing a second version they just release a cheaper dlc that fixes the dex problems and adds hours upon hours of content to the game I think it's at least a par pokemon game if not better.

@Zuljaras I don't know what it is but I know nothing about art and also like that it is a crab so it gets a A plus in my book (that is one nice crab)

Don't know if any of you guys follow GameXplain or not but Jon, one of its members, quit working for them a couple of days ago and said he's going to announce today what his new gig is going to be.
Alex Olney from Nintendo Life today posted on Twitter that "8pm should be good". I have a feeling Jon is going to join Nintendo Life. He's from the UK after all and it would make sense if Jon could support Alex and Zion in making videos for the YouTube channel.

@Rexenoboy I follow them but haven't watched a few in a few days. Didn't know Jon was leaving at all! Also, Alex is part of gamexplain now? Or did you mean to type NL?

@NintendoByNature
Yeah, that was a mistake. I corrected it. Sorry about that.

@Rexenoboy if Jon’s at NL now there would at least be a shred of happiness. Jon was always the best GaneXPlain member.

@Blooper987
I agree. I'm not even sure I'm going to continue watching GameXplain anymore now that Jon is gone. Their discussion videos have always been great but Jon brought a new and different voice to them and he will be missed.

@Rexenoboy no problem. I just didn't know if Alex just went there or something.

@Anti-Matter Unless there's something different with the service in your region, then no, android Hotspot Wi-Fi should be fine. I've used it quite a bit.

But it's possible that your phone has too weak of a signal in your area. Or there could be a security feature in the way.

Also, possibly a dumb point to make but, even if your phone is compatible, your provider still needs to allow it. Trying to use it otherwise will result in the option turning off immediately after turning on.

@Ghostchip I love SWSH. Played the crap out of it, over 400 hours. Best competitive experience in the history of the game in my experience. At least for VGC style doubles. A lot of people like it. It's just a loud, angry minority that complain. Most of whom never gave the game a chance in the first place.

@Heavyarms55 great someone else enjoys the game puts my measly 20 hours to shame! I got a drakapult and mimikyu and fight online for fun casually sometimes. My competitive game is smash bros got a lot of hours in that (for me at least). Who do you want in the new fighter pass if your into smash bros

@Heavyarms55
This is what happened when i tried to play Online (ARMS in this case to quick detect) with hotspot from my smartphone.

I set the data limit per use = 200 MB, Security = WPA2 PSK.
Did i set wrong configuration ?

That happens most of the time when I try to use a phone hotspot with the switch
