I have no idea, as I don’t really use it much. Someone here said no, that it only tracks from the moment you set it up forward, and I think they’re right. As I recall, it only started tracking my hours after I installed the app. But hey, nothing you can do about that. Just start tracking now and you’ll be good going forward.

@JaxonH yea that's my only selling point right now. Maybe November I might re-sub when things slow down for me gaming wise. After LM3 and Mario and sonic

@JaxonH I'll just have to send a message to myself in 2017 and tell him to set the app up then.

@Heavyarms55 At least you wouldn't have to load a game up just to see its playtime unless you were intending to play it. Though loading into 100+ games and inputting times into a speadsheet is probably a lot taller of a task than doing it for ten then keeping on top of it from that point on.

Folders and time regestrations is all I need

Yay! I fixed it!

£1.17 for a new ribbon cable. 10 minutes finger fiddling. Job done.

Chrom, Inciniroar and simon belmont amiibo are up for preorder in America at Best Buy. Amazon looks to already be sold out.

Anyone know how to open the Suspend menu on the SNES app while using a single joy con?

@gcunit probably the little buttons on top of the joycon?

@StableInvadeel Don't think so. When I first opened the app with a sideways joy con it gave me a prompt to press + and (what would be if it were in normal orientation) one of the X or A button to confirm in menus, but that doesn't seem to get me the menu in the first place, and the S buttons aren't doing anything either.

@gcunit I just checked.

+/- and ZR/ZL takes you to the suspend menu if pressed, or the rewind menu if held.

+/- and SL/SR are select and start respectively.

@StableInvadeel Yep, you're right, thank you Where did you find the answer? I did try looking.

@gcunit the game told me as soon as I tried to play with the single joycon.

Star Wars Pinball is pretty rad. Everyone needs at least one good pinball game in their library, and if you’re going to play pinball you might as well play Star Wars pinball. Tables are awesome, and it even has a campaign.

If I was a fan of Daemon X Machina (and it wasn't a new IP) I might go through the hassle of importing that, but as it is, not worth it to me. Of course, I regret not getting the Astral Chain LE, but ah well. NA just doesn't get LEs anymore it seems.

Zero/ZX collection apparently has everything on the cart.

Looking very forward to the new Katanakami game. Way of the samurai is my guilty pleasure series (if they could polish the animation and graphics I feel like it would get the recognition it deserves because it has a wonderful combat system and is a very fun sandbox series) so I must have this day one.

Surprised no-one is talking about Ring Fit Adventure!

I'm definitely interested in this one. I quite liked Wii Fit - so I'm already open to the idea of fitness based games - but what really interest me is the RPG-like adventure.

I think it helps combat a few concerns of the Switch Lite release - namely, that the Switch Lite would become the new "default" model, and that future games will be lacking in joycon-specific features.

I still wonder if Ring Fit Adventures have male player and physical cartridge. 🤔

@Buizel
"Surprised no-one is talking about Ring Fit Adventure!"

Here i am. 😀

@Anti-Matter It will definitely have a physical cartridge, and I'd be very surprised if it didn't have a male character option
