@JaxonH Thanks. Will probably get 64GB, I think that will last us awhile. Hopefully it's easy to transfer over if we need a bigger card in a few years, though I'm also thinking my kids get their own Switch in a year or two when it hits $199 for some type of portable version, so I won't need a bigger card, they will. My gaming days are numbered.

Well my copy of Sine Mora is on its way, I wonder if those issues in the original digital release were fixed? Either way it only jmpcted coop play so probably will never encounter them.

Mine has just turned up. So much for being delayed.

Not long ago I posted here about my dead pixels issue. I got my Switch back from the retailer with the statement that they can't find the dead pixels on the screen. And even if they did the LCD screens are allowed up to 7 dead pixels on HD screens.

Here are 2 photos of my 2 dead pixels.

Is it normal to bother me that much. I do not mind the one in the bottom left corner that much but the other. And they are visible only on dark background.

Tell me if you had or still have such issue. I heard that I am in the minority of people that have this.

gimped 3rd party ports

No third-party ports are gimped to you because you refuse to buy the systems that have the third-party games you claim to want. To you, they're just games. I still can't decide whether you just post the relentless moaning for attention or because you have a planet-sized sense of entitlement. Either way, Nintendo aren't going to make a straight PS4 competitor. They haven't had a machine with full third-party since they could force them to develop exclusively for the NES. If that's what you want, buy a Playstation, an Xbox, or a PC. If you want Nintendo games, buy Nintendo. You aren't going to get the same on one machine, no matter hat you think you're entitled to.

@SKTTR I've edited your post to keep it a bit more mobile friendly, those images were quite large.

Looked up that Ostwind game SKTTR just posted, might be worth buying if it's the steam game with double (or more) the content. Given the subtitle and physical release, I'm hoping it's either a sequel or a much padded out version. Seems like the base of the game was solid at least.

@Qwertyninty @JaxonH So I got that 256gb memory card today. Like Jaxon said I won't know till I run out of space if it's legit. From the package it appears to be ok for now. Definitely in a sealed package brand new but I know these can also be faked. The usable memory is 249gb though and that worries me a bit. I figured it would be closer to 244 or 243 for that size of a card.

@Spoony_Tech
Unfortunately that's the tell right there. A 256gb card will always be 238gb usable space. That's just simple math and there's no possible way for it to have more than that. The fact they didn't even bother to get that right amuses me.

Well, might as well use a program to determine how much space it actually has. I hate to say it but chances are it's going to be a really small amount. But who knows. There's only one way to find out

Isn't that the case for worldwide sales too? 5-6 million vs 12-13 million Wii Us in four years.

@Octane Yep. Pretty much. Shows just how badly they messed up with the Wii U.

And we're all better off for it IMO. What's the point of competition if they're all selling the same product anyways? It's not good for consumers or the market in general. And in any case it should be noted that Nintendo's share prices has basically tripped in just over a year. The last time they could say that....

SNES Mini sells more than Switch in Week One - Famitsu

Nintendo's Classic Mini SNES has sold over 360,000 units in Japan during its opening week, Famitsu has revealed. While we've yet to receive Famitsu's full hardware charts for last week, the publication took to its own website this morning to state the highly-sought after micro console shifted 368,913 in its first four days on sale based on its preliminary report, meaning it had a more successful launch than the Nintendo Switch.

The Switch, by comparison, launched to 330,637 unit sales in Japan back on March 3rd 2017, but this only had three days on shelves compared to the Classic Mini SNES's four days. The Classic Mini SNES console launched on October 5th in Japan, and Famitsu closed its report on October 8th.

Regardless, this will almost certainly make it the best-selling piece of hardware for the week, as even the week before last's Switch hardware sales only reached 74,500.

Famitsu is expecting the console to be a strong seller for the rest of the year, too, provided Nintendo can keep up with demand: "In the future, we expect further growth in sales volume for Christmas and the end-of-year sales battle," Famitsu said.

The Classic Mini SNES has been in hot demand all over the world ever since it first launched in Europe and the US at the end of last month, with retailers selling out almost as soon as new stock arrives. Nintendo promised to improve the stock situation before launch to try and prevent a repeat of the Classic Mini NES debacle last year, but the console has still been very difficult to get hold regardless.

Still, with Nintendo now promising to continue shipping the console well into 2018 (it originally stated it would only ship it until the end of the 2017), stock should hopefully start arriving more frequently over the coming months. Indeed, it's even confirmed the Classic Mini NES is going back into production, so that too should start reappearing on shop shelves sometime next year.

Almost 40k Switches sold. Pretty good. Not awesome, but good. Interesting to see numbers after Mario releases.

The Super Famicom Classic Mini only released in Japan last week, so that would have affected sales of everything. It sold by the truckload.
