My head is done in. I've been trying to connect my Switch to the Internet for the last 3 hours with zero success. First up, my router was not showing in the list of available connections. I decided to check what my settings were on Wii U and saw they were TKIP security. After a quick search I found others had the same problem. I needed to go into my router settings to alter the security settings to AES. So I done that and my router is now showing. But everytime i try to connect I'm getting "could not perform dns name resolution" , I tried wired connection and same thing. Took my Switch to downstairs router same thing. I've checked online and the only answer I'm getting is to completely power off the console and turn it back on but this isn't working either.
It connected to my mobile hotpot fine but used up a load just adding some download codes. I've not got a single game to play on it. Was going to be downloading everything.
Any one have an idea what it could be? Seriously frustrated.
@BLP_Software I don't think the region i bought it from has anything to do with it, considering I'm still in Asia and the shop has sold loads apparently without any returns. Every device I own and have owned over last few years connect without fail, Wii U thought gave me multiple issues at the start but eventually I got around it. Now my Switch can't even connect wired or at multiple different routers. I should be happy now, new console days are special days. Instead I'm here cursing Nintendo. So yeah it is their fault, certainly not mine.

Honestly, do a full reset on your router. Like, FULL reset. Not just a soft restart like most routers have where you press a button, but a full, not-even-powered-for-a-minute reset. Unplug that sucker from the wall, take the battery out of it (if it has one), and let it sit for a minute. Let it boot back up.
While that is happening, factory reset your Switch. Total reset. You probably don't have anything on it yet if you haven't been able to download games, but just factory reset anyway.
If you do follow this, let me know how it goes. If you don't, well, then still good luck! Electronics can be frustrating, but there is always a solution.
I hope so, regarding Crash trilogy. That'll mean the used market will be well supplied with copies shortly when everyone realises the memory was greater than the reality.
Good luck finding a copy at the moment anyway...
Just popped in here to ask whatâs going on with all these Bayonetta rumours in the last day or so. Is it actually happening? It would bring me one step closer to a Switch purchase, if so! And hopefully a third game is secretly churning away at Platinum too. Bayonetta 2 was one of the very best games on the Wii U.
Remember that Platinum has been ''teasing'' Bayonetta 3 for a good year too and we haven't heard anything yet. Once in a while they upload a Bayonetta clip that loops three times, and people theorised it meant Bayonetta 3. Either they're always trolling, or they're indeed working on a port and a third game.
@rallydefault Have I ever told you you're awesome?The factory reset of Switch worked. I had already reset my router, it was one of the first things I tried. I would never have thought of resetting my Switch though considering I'd just done it. I gave up last night, was so annoyed. I was thinking a new expensive unlimited mobile data package might be my only option. But thankfully I'm now connected to my home network. I'm well happy now

We know for a fact Platinum is working on something for Switch. And we know that anything teased concerning Bayonetta 2 would have to be a Switch tease since its exclusive to Nintendo, and that pic is most definitely teasing the first 2 games. The fact it's red and blue, with a mirrored layout like joycons, and the fact Platinum is going through and liking every tweet that's made the connection...
I'd say it's pretty much a given at this point. Ya they've thrown out tweets in the past about a potential Bayo3, and conveyed that they'd love to do a 3rd, but this is different. This is a rock solid tip off to a Switch port of Bayo1/2 from Wii U.
And I suspect Nintendo is all for it. After all, they funded the game, and it sold over a million copies on Wii U, of all systems. They're probably counting on another million (or more) from a Switch release, and they should. People will be all over this.

That's 5 games from NIS for Switch now. All of which are receiving special edition physical releases on the NIS Online Store.
Disgaea 5
Tohou Kobuto V: Burst Battle
Nights of Azure 2
Penny Punching Princess
The Longest 5 Minutes
A huge salute to NIS for their bold step forward here. Disgaea 5 must have done really well (think it almost had as many preorders on Switch as the game sold total on PS4, and Tohou Kobuto V trailer had more views on YT than the PS4 version last I checked...) and now they're slowly migrating their releases onto the platform. I will reward NIS in equal measure for that support, and plan to have a complete NIS special edition collection on my shelf.
The Switch is swallowing up the Vita market, as expected. Heard Xonic is next.

@JaxonH There's the Smash advantage too, back when Bayonetta 1 and 2 came to Wii U originally it happened just because Nintendo funded the 2nd game. Since then Bayonetta won the Smash ballot out of the realistic choices (I still think Shrek was probably the true #1), got her own DLC (character + stage + music + trophies). People have also been waiting for the amiibo release to complete their Smash collection, there is definitely much more hype about Bayonetta now then there was back in 2014 when the Wii U games came out.
@Ralizah
Ya. Idea Factory recently stated they could bring Neptunia to Switch, and that fans should let them know. Which, I mean come on. I can understand some games that maybe don't have a market, but it's pretty clear there's an emerging market for these types of games. Just ask NIS. If they want to expand, then PS4 versions alone won't cut it. They need to be on Switch as well. Fans can't reasonably take to twitter over every single game series. Once in a while, ok. I did it for Monster Hunter and would do it again. But it should be the exception, not the rule. And those who take that step forward and show support, will get support in return. Those who hesitate... well, keep hesitating and losing out I guess.
@Grumblevolcano
That's true. And we know Smash is coming. They probably just want to space the ports out a bit. A Bayo1/2 release with amiibo unlocks for the game, along with a Smash port with all DLC will do wonders for setting the stage for a 3rd entry down the line.

Also came across this. Famitsu are reporting game and hardware sales data from December 26, 2016 to June 25, 2016. Nintendo has the Top 5 games and 8 out of the 10 are on Nintendo platforms. Switch takes top spot for hardware sold.

Ya I'm just counting the special editions they've offered though. Cause it's nice to see parity with LE's
