Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

It's nice seeing all of these third party games apparently doing well on the eshop.

@Ralizah Agreed. If you click the view all button and then sort it by best sellers, you actually get the full list, including the free downloads. Games like Dragon Ball, NBA 2K18, and FIFA 18 are all hovering pretty well, and are consistently doing better than ARMS. Nights of Azure 2 is higher than ARMS too, though that one is still pretty new.

@IceClimbers Using this it seems LA Noire is 16th out of the paid games on the UK eshop (the list doesn't count the Skyrim preorder but you know that game's position from the charts section). Not bad given the large quantity of other games released recently.

A couple of online shops have sold out of L.A Noire. So it's not doing that badly.

@GrailUK That is good to hear! I really hope that third party developers will create or even port old games to the Switch. With the current months in the forward I believe the sales will go a lot higher. So I hope the third party developers will be satisfied and bring more games to the Switch in the (near) future.

I am also very curious about the plans and releasedates that Nintendo has for 2018!

I'm confused, what's the hate speech stuff? It's not like Bethesda is condoning what the Nazis or KKK do in the game, are they?

@Inertiacreep Mind your language.

@Ralizah @JaxonH
I will give it a go. Were mainly afraid of overheating the console when left in the travel case.

Starting to wonder whether he has 'typing tourettes' or something...

@tobibra
Oh no, I keep mine in sleep mode 24/7, in a travel case 10 hours per day. It generates zero heat when in sleep mode. It's like pure hibernation. You won't even be able to tell it's not really powered off.

@JaxonH Assuming your Switch is already packed with games, have you noticed any impact on OS performance? E.g. having loads of games on my 3DS makes the Home menu take longer to populate.

@gcunit
No, nothing like that on Switch. I think it has adequate RAM for the OS this time.

I keep MHXX, Splatoon 2 and Rocket League on internal memory with 3.9gb free (just cause it's good to keep 10% space free), and I have a 400gb card in with about 200gb free space.

Switch is as snappy and fast as ever.

@JaxonH Good to know, thanks.

oh ok, just censor my entire post about hate speech in the first 5 minutes of wolfenstein2... REALLY PRO ACTIVE!!!

i will die if Nintendo patronizes this

Ive been playing games since I was like 4 years old and theres hardly a damn thing I will object to in video games, but hate speech is where I draw the line... [removed]

@Inertiacreep Well, if it's like something racist or something along those lines said by the nazis, then I think that's sort of to give you more incentive to kill the nazis. If it's something said by one of your allies or even the main character themselves, then I would agree it's a problem.

@Inertiacreep Let's not generalise, and there's no need to make unreasonable offensive remarks. And please don't multi-post.

@Inertiacreep If you don't like offensive content, maybe don't play a game where literal nazis have taken over the world?

Man, **** those Nazis...

It's interesting that the most offensive person on these forums - who uses profanity like it's punctuation - has a problem with offensive content...
