For those people (like me) who are waiting on a 1 TB micro SD I can confirm Sandisc finally has them... but they're 200 this year. 512 are down from 200 to 80 now... so hopefully that means one more year before the 1TBs enter my price range. Who knows though, maybe it never will drop that low?

But to bring this back around to Nintendo itself... with 32 GB SD cards having dropped to an eighth of the price as when the Switch launched, is there really any chance that they won't finally upgrade the onboard memory with a revision? I feel like offering a 128 GB model would be Nintendo's most likely choice if we do get that rumored revision.

With physical carts not installing, I could see it still having 32gb to save costs for elsewhere.

Btw, I just got an extra 1TB card recently for $179 thanks to someone here posting. I thought it was you, actually.

I’m waiting on the 2TB cards. Or at least 1.5 TB. It’s taking forever.

Right on. Let me know.

I think you should watch this video which Gaijin Hunter made for starting out in Dragon’s Dogma, and this other video made specifically as a beginner’s guide for new players starting out in Dragon’s Dogma...

@NintendoByNature
Dragon’s Dogma is such a deep, rewarding game. Similar to Monster Hunter there’s a lot of little tidbits of information you wouldn’t normally know, so that starting out video is a huge help. Like how the fact the character creation process actually affects gameplay in meaningful ways. There’s also an item you can get right away that you can sell for a ton of money, that will basically cover you the entire early game period.

@NintendoByNature also if you have friends that own the game you can hire their pawns for free... no level restriction. It is a nice way to have a tank until you level/get used to the game. Y’all are making me want to play. I still have not killed Death.

@Ryu_Niiyama sweet. That's also good info. Although I don't know anyone else who's playing it or has it other than on here.

@NintendoByNature I don’t know if you have me added or not but let me know and I’ll post my friend code for a bit. I had to take it out of my sig because I kept getting requests from people I didn’t know. My pawn is ok, but she will get you through the early game. I put in less hours since I had already beaten it on 360 and PC. And I have a backlog the size of Olympus Mons.

Black Friday deals are starting on Nintendo UK store .... Looks similar to American one at a glance but I haven't checked details that thoroughly!

@BruceCM
Is Cyber Monday will be pretty similar case as Black Friday (Huge discount for electronics) ?

Anti-Matter

BruceCM

Well, in theory, Black Friday would be the hardware & physical stuff, then Cyber Monday would be the digital games, etc, @Anti-Matter .... Dunno about for your area but here it just ends up being 2 or 3 weeks of overlapping sales!

Cyber Monday is just a buzzword created to encourage people to shop online to compete with Black Friday sales which was traditionally for physical stores.

I wonder how many people in America have died from stampedes during Cyber Monday compared to Black Friday?

Well my fourth par of joy-con now have severe drift. Looks as though I'll be playing in docked mode until I get a replacement pair. This is utterly ridiculous. In fact I think I'm going to skip replacing the joy-con, forgo the ability to play in handheld mode, and just play in tabletop or docked mode with a pro controller.

I'm sick of this nonsense.

@Magician
I feel fortunate I still haven’t had joycon drift to date. Of course, I have a pro controller for TV play and only use the joycon in handheld mode. Have a separate pair for tv play when I want split joycon.

I’d just send them back and have them replace them for free, and keep doing that. Don’t let them stop you from playing how you want to play. If it means they have to pay for repairs half a dozen times then let them pay for repairs half a dozen times. Screw em. That’s how I am with Amazon when I keep getting damaged collector editions. I send them back and have them send new ones and if they come damaged I send them back again, I keep sending them back until they learn to get me an undamaged product. If it means they have to pay for shipping and return shipping a dozen times before they get it right, then so be it. Let Nintendo eat the cost of the repairs. Keep playing how you always play.

@JaxonH That's a LOT more than I paid for the exact same card about 6 months ago. Wow, I am glad I got mine when I did!

@JaxonH

Normally that's the 100% correct approach to the joy-con drift situation, absolutely. But my perspective is slightly different. I see this as the the perfect opportunity (or excuse) to invest in both an 8bit Do SN30, an 8bit Do SN30 Pro+, and a new carry case to transport those things to and from work safely.
