@NEStalgia Handheld. Sorry for not clarifying. I'm trying it again, though, because may it was because I had it charging. It's still weird that it didn't go away when I unplugged it, though.

@Nicolai Hmm, if you're purely in handheld (i.e. not docking/undocking at all) the screen shouldn't be turning on....that's not sounding normal. Granted, I don't turn mine off unless I'm rebooting it for one reason or another, so I don't have too much experience with that, but it doesn't sound normal.

When you turn it back on does it go through the usual Nintendo logo->Switch logo->home menu cycle with black screens for the first two?

@Therad
Sorry, was away for the weekend. You misread my post.

@NaviAndMii
You did, too.

Just ask for some clarification next time, guys - no worries.

@DarthNocturnal
If the system is off (sleeping), I don't think it should be turning on by just removing it from the dock... hang on, let me try... well, for me, it just brings up the lock screen that you have to hit the button three times, but if you don't, it just turns off again.

@NEStalgia Yes it does. Also, it apparently doesn't do it every time, but it has happened twice.

I only ever turn it completely off when it struggles connecting to wi-fi. So it's no real issue, it's just weirding me out.

Got married.

....who thought it was a good idea to not allow Procon support for Ginsei Shogi: Kyoutendo Toufuu Raijin? That being said I'm glad I forgot to buy it on Wiiu...and I still suck at shogi so badly (getting better though).

That Aqua Moto Racing and Snow Moto Racing looks legit.

Saw it when it hit other platforms but was distracted with other stuff. Could be interested for Switch if they're good enough. Handheld WaveRace sounds awesome...

not double dipping on Rayman. looks more of the same and not worth it at all. This game was free on PS+ and Gold once.

Two Kickstarters have opened today - info from Nintendo Everything - one for Hex Gambit (a strategy game that has been featured on this site before), and Metroidvania game Demoniaca: Everlasting Night. Hex Gambit's goal of $11,000 will see it released on Steam 'n' Switch next April. Demoniaca is now in the second stage of funding and required $30,000 to be released on Steam, Windows, Mac and Linux next year, however there is a stretch goal of $100,000 for a Switch version, with the other consoles to be considered with future stretch goals.

Rayman is also one of those games you don't want to not have. And while it was available on Vita, most people didn't own one and those who did have mostly moved on. Having Rayman Legends on Switch is awesome. I only wish Origins came too.

On another note, I have something I wanted to share, as it reflects on how everyday people are reacting to Switch.

So, I've already mentioned I have several coworkers who bought one, and an incredible number of others considering it. Well, this engineer I work with- Anthony, he's been slowly warming up to it. Traditionally an Xbox gamer, loves competing in games like Rocket League, etc. Ever since he first saw mine, he's been interested, and finally decided to buy one, but he's waiting until he's quit smoking long enough to "cover" the cost so his wife is ok with it.

Said he called his brother, and told him he was gonna buy a Switch, and his bro is a big Call of Duty player, and was like "ya... I've thought about it but, Idk..." A week later his bro calls him back and was like man, my CoD buddy came by with a Switch, and all he does now is play Splatoon. We played all weekend. I'm at Shopko right now getting a Switch. If you want one I can grab an extra for you!"

So, his bro went from "ya... Idk" to "I'm at the store buying one right now!" in one weekend. I told my friend Splatoon 2 is crack. Once you start you'll never stop.

Pretty much sums up the interest I've observed. So... It's looking good. Real good.
