I probably shouldn't have, but after watching this video from NintendoLife about the Viture XR glasses, I ordered a pair alongside the mobile dock for Switch (and I got the $100 neckband, and the $20 switch dock case thingy that connects Switch to the dock for easy use on the go, and the $10 shades cover to make it perfectly dark when desired- figured if I'm investing in this thing, may as well get the full experience).

I feel compelled to try these things out. The thought of playing Metroid Prime like this just excites me, and the thought of hooking up the Steamdeck for some Metroid Prime 2 Echoes via PrimeHack using a Switch Pro controller with dual analog gyro... screw it. I'm in.

WELCOME10 code knocks off 10% from the price, plus, it seems tax it already included which was a huge bonus. Between the two I saved over $100. Oh, and using my PayPal MasterCard through PayPal earned another 2% cash back instantly. So another $12.50 off the price there, too. Honestly it was a pretty good deal come to think of it.

Glasses only are like $479, but with WELCOME10 10% off discount and no tax on the order, and PayPal cash back, you could in theory grab a pair for just over $420 shipped, though if you're using it for Switch you probably want the portable battery/dock also (but you could use a Genki Covert dock or even HDMI directly from the official dock if you don't mind sacrificing portability).

Most definitely my man, most definitely.

It'll be May before I get it though. They already fulfilled their Kickstarter orders and their first 10 batches. They're taking orders for batch 11 which is expected to arrive about 2 months from now.

They thought of that too.

Not only does each side have its own scroll wheel for adjusting focus in case you're near sighted or have myopia, it also has these

is hilarious that most Zeldatubers and YouTuber, is worried that Nintendo is not giving enough information for the game, i will reirate, that Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom dont need a huge marketing campaing to suceed, just Breath of the Wild in the franchise, will be enough to make the game sales explode, if Nintendo anounced the game at E3 2019 or E32021, and shadow dropped the game, the game would still sell like water in the desert, i simply cant stand all this ludicrous drama, does all this Zeldatuber/YouTuber really doubt that Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom be Breath of the Wild 2.0? i prefer Nintendo go blind on us until the the release of the game, i want to be suprised by the game

@TheBigBlue that a problem when you professional side as a YouTuber clash with your fan side, i love Metroid Prime, is one of my favorite games of all time, but even me that is a super Metroid fan, can like rational and realize no way, a remaster no matter how good it is, is never gonna win GOTY

I was just making my final 3DS/Wii U purchases given the eshop shutdowns on March 27th and seeing the Pikmin Wii ports on the Wii U eshop brought me back to the days of "Pikmin 4 is very close to completion". It's still rather surreal that it's a real thing releasing in just over 4 months.

@Grumblevolcano
I know right?

All those years we'd talk about Pikmin 4, arguing with rjejr whether it was Hey! Pikmin or not lol. I never gave up hope, though I will admit Nintendo had me on the ropes there with that near-decade long gap.

Pikmin is soooo much fun. But like so many other Nintendo exclusives, feels like it never truly gets the attention or success it deserves.
