Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@JaxonH I don't know what to say I'm...just not seeing it. Even in dark mode at low brightness. And even if it's there, glare on the screen is a much bigger issue when playing at low brightness (which I never do in practice) than a slight green tint would be.

If it's that glaring an issue for @Kermit1, I can only assume that (i) they got a somewhat faulty model, (ii) they're particularly sensitive to this sort of thing.

I keep my brightness at halfway. I've had my OLED for a year, no issues.

One more week til sparks of hope!

@Ralizah
I like staring at the sun... not really. But I do like staring at an ultra bright screen. Love the vibrancy. Max is a smidge much, but 3 clicks under or so is pretty good.

I'd use the dark theme if it was true black, where the OLED pixels turn off completely. But I can't stand non-black blacks now. It bugs me.

check out the hand-on preview of Bayonetta 3 and the severals Bayonetta we gonna meet in the game

@Buizel @JaxonH The green pixels/tint also show up in games in dark areas which is annoying, even if the home screen is white and the brightness is up to at least halfway.

Right now idk what to do. Knowing my luck if I get another it will have this problem but maybe worse.

I'm just kinda miffed right now. I can't even enjoy my hobby without hiccups.

I'm going to have to transfer everything again back to my old Switch if I do get a refund or a non defect console. There goes my day again.

aight I'm just rambling now, I'm gonna go get lunch and think on this.

@Kermit1
That sounds really bad.

Where did you buy from?

@JaxonH Wal-Mart. I think I'm gonna contact Nintendo for a replacement.

Fast Racing RMX physical release out now via Super Rare Games (PAL version). Does ship to US.

Normal and steelbook versions available.

The Touryst also available but I don't really care about that game.

I don't think Wal-Mart will give me a refund or a new OLED.

I'm legit getting sick of Nintendo and gaming in general. Why is it always me with the defects or problems with items.

If they offer a refund for the OLED I'm taking it and going back to my OG Switch.

@Kermit1
Sounds like a bit of an over reaction. Stuff happens. I got a Wii U gamepad that rattled once. Had to exchange it. Got a Switch with a dead pixel once. Got an AMD GPU that didn't work once. Got a PS4 that sounded like a jet engine once.

Stuff happens. Ain't that big of a deal. Of course Wal-Mart will swap it out. All big retailers have return policies, ESPECIALLY if something is wrong. Just bring it back, say the screen has a tint and you want a new one. Done and done.

@Kermit1 Defects are super annoying. But they happen to a lot of people. It's important not to give up and try to find solutions to those problems. For example, my Switch had a faulty card reader. I got it sent to Nintendo and they fixed it, and I haven't had any issues since.

I completely understand feeling burnt out by issues, though. When I realized that my Switch was defective, I genuinely felt like just giving up on the console for a while. Perseverance is key.

@JaxonH @StarPoint I barely slept last night, I just need to calm down and unwind and take my mind off of it for now.

I'm gonna re-watch The Grand Tour season 4 for the 12th time and snuggle with a cat while eating a salad.

You fellas on here are the best for someone with high anxiety (I think I should stop saying I have it because I think everyone knows already)

Watched the new Bayonetta 3 trailer and I am SOOOOO beyond hyped for this game. Can't wait for it.

With my girlfriend's birthday being on the 22nd plus some car maintenance that's come up, I'll have to hold off on a couple of the new releases for a little while. Bayonetta 3 is higher priority for me than Sparks of Hope or Persona, so that's what I'll be getting for now.

But rest assured, I'll grab both Sparks of Hope and Persona soon!

@IceClimbers
It does look good. And previews are absolutely glowing.

But you already knew what time it is.

I returned the OLED to Wal-Mart then went to Best Buy and got the neon OLED (I got the white originally) and a carrying case because they had a deal going on.

I read a reddit post... OLED's are quirky lol.

I left my SD card in my OLED I returned ****. My day just keeps getting worse lol.

This new Bayonetta trailer is wild. The hype levels are off the charts.

@JaxonH Bayonetta 3 is gonna be the best game of the franchise, i can't wait to play this masterpiece on my extended battery Switch, octobre 28th come sooner please.

I'm torn on the trailer, it feels like there's massive spoilers but would they really put massive spoilers in a trailer 2 weeks prior to launch? I know launch trailers are very infamous for heavy spoilers but this isn't the launch trailer.
