@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.

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

Nintendo aren't going to make a straight PS4 competitor.
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.

€330 on a next gen machine for mobile trash like this? What is the Switch? A dumping ground for garbage? Someone needs to "clean" this mess up. Curve make some good games but this doesn't look like one of them.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE I played that game at PAX East, it's actually incredibly fun and addictive. I'll agree the trailer didn't show off it's strengths though, but it's really a gameplay oriented game, not that fun to watch. Luckily, they are adding a wide variety of games to the Switch, something for everyone.
@Spoony_Tech I guess you're referring to me. But I'm growing ever more frustrated. Sorry.
Take a break then. It seems like all you do lately is bash the Switch and whatever games it gets. I get it, you want the best for Nintendo and it's not happening the way you want it to but this is what it is. Nintendo from this point on will always be treated second or third best. I've excepted it. Nintendo also seems to be ok with it as long as they can make the games they want the way they want.
