@Xyphon22 I Am Setsuna is technically a retail release, but clocks in at a measly 1.3 GB. Snake Pass is actually pretty big for an eshop game at 3.7 GB, closer to the size of most retail games. Blaster Master Zero and most other sprite based games only clock in around 200 MB. With a 64GB card, you're probably looking at being able to download 80 or so games at a time (not counting the 32GB), depending on which titles you choose of course. Theoretically if you stuck to NeoGeo titles you could get over 300 of them lol. Not to mention, you can always archive old titles to redownload later.

Got a quick response anyways from the seller.

@JaxonH maybe it released in some regions but not NA? Could be a printing issue or freight issue. Hurricanes rerouting container ships and such (and annihilated dock facilities)

@Samus7Killer i have my hori hrap ready for it, so switch is the only way to go for me!

Just got an update from Amazon. Sine Mora should be delivered between October 16th - November 2nd

Psalms 22:16 (1,000 yrs before Christ)
They pierced My hands and feet
Isaiah 53:5 (700 yrs before Christ)
He was pierced for our transgressions
Zachariah 12:10 (500 yrs before Christ)
They will look on Me whom they pierced

@Spoony_Tech @link3710 Thanks for the info. I just checked my Wii U data storage and it looks like I've used 196 GB on my hard drive plus most of the system memory. But I also have a lot of stuff on there that I could easily get rid of like every demo ever. So I guess if I can find a really good deal on a 128 GB card I'll go for that, but I think I will be okay if I settle for 64. I learned that I definitely did not need a 1 TB hard drive, though.

I would love to see a Wii U fifa vs Switch fifa comparison.... The same with NBA 2k.

@Xyphon22 I didn't even fill up half my 320gig hardrive on my Wii U but when retail games are requiring extra storage that worries me. Let's just take GTA5 (assuming the rumors are true) for example, I'm hearing it's close to 32 gigs on the last gen systems and I'm willing to bet they will use a 16gb retail card and offload the rest on us. Now if 3rd party games don't interest you then 64gigs should be fine.

@Spoony_Tech That's true. I forgot about that. I've never cared for GTA, but I do want some 3rd parties, including NBA 2K18. I guess it'll just depend on the deals. I saw Amazon has a 128 for $45 that has good reviews, and Best Buy's best deal right now is a 64 for $30, so that 128 is a better deal, anyway. So I will hold off for now but definitely try to get a 128 if I can. Thanks for your help.

@Spoony_Tech Honestly, I'm not really into sports games, and most third-party games I get on my PS4, so I mainly use the Switch for first-party games and Indies. Which means I could probably go with a 64 GB for when my system memory runs out, if I just want a temporary solution, or a 128 GB, if I want something for the lifetime of the system.

@BLP_Software Small update, retailer finally answered. They claim there's no mark up on Switch units and they're essentially selling them with no profit at all; €329 per unit they claimed. The €320 unit was a UK import, because they're cheaper apparently. Going to send it back regardless, since I'd have to pay for the new adapter, and pay the shipping costs for it, and send mine back. I may as well order it somewhere else in that case.

@Octane Damn really? That's sucky. Best send it back and order one for RRP man. Figured something was up.

Means the boxes aren't sealed either. And that's a security issue,

New Switch boxes are not sealed in the US. Just closed. So anyone can open them

@BLP_Software No seal was the first thing I noticed, but I've heard they aren't sealed in some countries so I didn't give it a second thought.

Anyway, I'm not at home this weekend, but I'll get myself a new one on Monday.

@IceClimbers
Honest opinion... go for Steamworld Dig 2. Golf Story is a great throwback to Mario Golf GBA, but I think SteamWorld Dig 2 is maybe the best indie on the eShop.

IceClimbers

@JaxonH Thanks, I'll go with that. I'll get Golf Story eventually too, but I want to finish the bunch of games I recently got first . Still working on Mario + Rabbids!

How many of you guys have a little problematic pixels? I have noticed that I have 2 bright pixels. They are hard to find but I know they are there. They can only be seen then I am really close to the display and only on dark backgrounds.

I read that Nintendo claims that is normal with LCD displays but I am worried.

Octane

@Zuljaras Those are dead pixels. There are almost a million pixels on the Switch screen, and some can malfunction. It doesn't impact gameplay or functionality though.
