I have a GuliKit, which is tiny and non noticable for a while now so I've been using Bluetooth on my switch for a while. Let me give you my thoughts. The new Bluetooth audio through the switch is very quiet, I can get it much louder via USB C adapter. Also I've been experiencing input lag since starting to use it via my proc controller. Now I've only been playing one game, bioshock infinite, but before the update I had no lag. And the lag is really bad. I'm going to go back to the adapter to see if it goes away.
@cookeecut the semiconductor shortage would, more than not, NOT be relevant as these contracts were probably signed years in advance. But the Switch has been out for 5 years now and you better believe the manufacturing costs have come down. I'm sure the first Switch revision brought costs down a lot as I remember seeing teardowns that showed less components being using and changed components. So if the new Switch is only ten dollars more than the old version that would be ten dollars more than the super refined cheaper model. And then I'm sure this revision brought costs down even more! So this is Nintendo straight up lying to customers. But that is nothing new, "there is no new switch coming!" and then a month later a new switch! Nintendo was pissed they didn't price the original switch higher and they would have, had they known it was going to sell this well. So this is an easy way for Nintendo to pocket another $50 and then after this winter the "old" switch will be phased out of production all of a sudden, lol. All the while not fixing the drift issue AT ALL!
@The_New_Butler you apparently need a lesson on the American system of government. You are NOT told to do anything in the US. I can do anything as long as my freedom doesn't interfere with someone else's freedom. You're not told to do your taxes as you can choose not to work. You are using murder as an example, lol? You apparently don't know what fascist means. "a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition." Forcible suppression of opposition, if I don't want to wear or mask or shut down my business and you make me, often at gunpoint. And the first part of that definition a regime that puts nation (or the group) above the individual and headed by a "dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation". Does this not sound like what happened during the pandemic. A dictator (faucci) told us what we were and were not going to be able to do. And if you didn't you had economic and social punishments. They fine you and others in stores would attack you and CA you names. I'm not saying it is fascist but it's very close, much more so than anything Trump ever did and everyone called him a fascist. Last time I checked in fascist governments when you say something against the leader you and your family are black bagged. But maybe we just haven't tried the right kind of fascism or socialism. Lol
@BloodNinja yeah, show me that story (and it would be a story because it's completely out of the norm. From the CDC stays, "The data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that children account for about 7.3% of cases. Children account for less than 1% of deaths." So I'm sorry I don't believe you, unless the kids were in a hospital or hospital type setting with serious comorbidities.
I'm sorry just because of a pandemic the constitution isn't paused! This is extremely important and judges have already ruled on this saying as much. I agree with most of you and I'm vaccinated. I wore my mask until I was double vaxxed. If you want to wear a mask and wash your hands, etc you have every right to do that but YOU DON'T have the right to force another American to do it. Also businesses have the right to say who does have to wear a mask in their store or not, again NOT THE GOVERNMENT!
And if you don't think this hasn't been a big power grab just look at many places who still have crazy lockdown rules in place. It's funny that red states who let up restrictions and go back to normal faster actually did much better than places that stayed locked down way after. No tin foil hat needed!
@HXLXIII I tried contact cleaner and it worked for a couple days. WD-40 will make it worse as dirt will stick to it and makes it go bad faster. My cousins was so bad his contacts were eaten up and nothing fixed them. Its easier to map only buttons to the sticks that you click without moving the stick to stop drift.
@falconlord5 4K and a 1080p screen, more RAM were also missing.
Nintendo makes me mad as instead of really making the new switch worth it and adding a larger battery they DO NOTHING! I mean just 1000mAh more would have been awesome and made games Like ZBoTW last like 7 hours instead of 4.5. They always "cheap" out and then have the nerve to CHARGE $50 MORE!
My cousin, a few friends and myself have narrowed down the drift. We are all on our third pair OR MORE of Joycons. We have found if you never press in the sticks (to run, jump, etc) they last infinitely longer. We play a lot of FPS and other games where you hold the left stuck down and press up at the same time to run. Doing this the sticks almost always had drift within the first six months to a year. When we remapped the run (left stick click) to the shoulder buttons we've now been DRIFT FREE for over a year! When you click the sticks and press (as many have seen when they take apart the device) up the connections between the sticks gets eaten up and goes bad. My cousin is a professional gamer and he also experienced this with Xbox one controllers to a lesser extent. The range of motion in the switch controllers is just shorter and smaller which is why it happens more often on the switch. He was able to just about eliminate drift on his switch joycons and pro controllers by making the change. Just thought I'd post to help anyone else who might have these issues. I mean the fact that Nintendo hasn't done anything to fix this on a hardware level is insane as they are the hardware kings.
@Dezzy exactly, those sites are finished. And that's why I'm just about down with NintendoLife. Looks like Nintendo Everything will be my go to... I'm so tried of this b s progressive stuff that just serves to separate us even more!
@JDig WE ARE OVERSENSITIVE?! Everything today comes with a "trigger" warning and we are sick of it. Just say the game has crude humor and move along. I don't need your political opinions or how you "feel" about something. I love Nintendo Life but this going into SJW territory is horrible. When your site starts pushing such buzzwords as diversity, inclusion, representation, offensive, etc. you are in SJW territory.Ughhhh
@DaTrashMan I know, 100% agree! I was watching Scary Movie 1 & 2 on MTV the other day and it blew my mind. They were OK with the sex jokes, bad words (and there are a plenty) but they censored when the one character calls the other a "retard". And in the second movie they say about the main character that she looks like the ghost of the woman in the house but not really and when she squints it looks like she has "down syndrome" which was also censored out. I could tell what they said because their mouth movements and I've seen the movies a million times. But this just goes to show how "offensive" everything today is, except the stuff that SHOULD truly be offensive!
@carlos82 the graphics on this game look horrible. And the motion control mechanics have affected the graphics as thats why the game looks so weird. I mean just look at those bad guys, ugly!
I miss my n64 😔 Man sometimes you wish you could go back in time. I remember N64 stations at KB Toys and Mario 64 playing on there. Goldeneye 007 parties. 007 use to bring together the black and white kids back in 98. We would do team games. If we could all just get along now and use 007 to bring us together, lol.
@cdmac that's not true at all. All of these crazy big companies outright go after Trump supporters when they makeup half the country? Make sense, NO?! Why would you say anything and lose half of your business? I just said Trump supporters but it can go either way. I mean why companies feel the need to stick their nose into things that don't concern them is beyond me. And I have to admit I'm tired of all of the censorship. Some think that if you don't agree with them you deserve to be hurt, lose your job, beaten, your kids not eating, etc. It's ridiculous and un-American!
@GannonBanned you are crazy if you think it looks better than the Witcher on switch. You have to share what you are taking as its some strong stuff, lol. You would be the first person who ever thought that that I have ever seen.
I got Immortals Fenyx Rising Gold Edition for like $61 as I had some points saved up. It's a great game so far. I actually really like it. I like the funny story and game mechanics. Plus for $60 I'm getting a ton of content that will keep coming into 2021! It's funny as earlier that day I had bought the physical from Amazon for $43 I believe and I returned it as I was going to get the season pass but I didn't know it was $40! $99 for this game is way too much but $60 is worth it for sure.
@MakeMyBiscuit exactly. This pisses me off. You know that half of America voted for Trump, right? You know that there different opinions other than yours or is that vacuum feeling a little small?
Anyone getting the que message, once you pay you bypass it. I was really amazed by how well this worked. I played for four hours now and you can barely tell it's being streamed and the graphics are crazy good. Screen space reflections are amazing to look at and the detail in the textures is mind blowing (for the switch). I play mainly handheld and it looks gorgeous. I paid the $40 it costs for Control as I knew what I was getting into and I wanted to test it fully (plus I ONLY own the switch and I always miss out of big name releases). I'm mighty impressed I must say. I would love for them to do borderlands 3 or red dead redemption 2 with mutliplayer support.
This is how Nintendo competes vs Xbox series x and PS5. With this they can do graphic intensive games that look as good as a series x or ps5 but still run on the switch hardware. I'm going to check my router logs to see how much data is being used though as that could be an issue in an all streaming video game future. But either way I'm interested...
The patch is there on the east coast of the good ole US of A! I just got a new 1TB microSD so I've spent the last 24 hours downloading all my old games. At least I should never need another card, lol.
It's now been two and a half months since that tweet about the patch and three months since the game released. I mean WTF, where is the update? The console versions get updates all the time but we haven't even had one. What a scam. I wish I could bring my copy back!
@Darkyoshi98 they didn't add cloud save. They added a backup but it only updates every once in a while and you have to call Nintendo support to restore. Also its limited to a broken or lost device. They said in the last update that they are setting up a way to transfer saves to another device but it won't be ready till fall.
What doesn't make sense to me is that we pay for their online service that is a glorified cloud save for most of us that don't play the online classic games. And why can't I have cloud save on Splatoon, Animal Crossing or Mario Kart (and more)? The hackers already have control of the Switch file system so you aren't stopping them from anything, just hurting regular Switch owners who want a backup their games in case of emergencies?! Or what about owners who have a "home" switch and an "away" lite switch? Why can't they seemlessly switch between their switch's without a huge save game conflict? Why must Nintendo be so anal and so unequivocally stupid at the same time?! I would understand if their hardware was completely locked down and they didn't want to open the door to hackers but that ship has sailed. And you are in first place heading into another console generation yet you have announced NO new games or hardware for the rest of the 2020? Why haven't you enticed Activision and Rockstar to bring GTA or CoD to the Switch?
@Dark_Magician this game is NOT blurry at all. I ONLY play in handheld and it looks sharp and crisp 80% of the time. This is NOTHING like Doom or Wolfenstein which can be vasaline messes in handheld mode. Sometimes when you have vehicles, explosions, and tons of men on screen it takes a quality hit but not often. It also has great AI, way above any game I've ever played on the switch (or many other consoles for that matter). I bought this one originally just to support Saber interactive. They're quality can't be topped on the switch, heck the Outterworlds team needs to call then to fix their game.
Slowdive said the below and I got the response in an email from NL but I couldn't find it in this thread. So I posted their response and mine:
"Slowdive said:
@Fifth313ment She doesn't hate men, nor did she ever said that she did. Stop getting your "news" or "information" from opportunistic reactionaries like TheQuartering who created this ridiculous outrage culture.
@Damo She has a new video up on her Animal Crossing island.
Thu 16th 07:14"
@Slowdive have you never watched any of Larson's videos? When she talks about "not" hating white men her facial expressions are enough to show she does hate them. Not to mention she says it like 3 times. And none of this has ANYTHING to do with @TheQuartering.
Any man who watches any of her videos can see she loathes men. In the Avengers movie interviews you could tell the whole cast of the movie hated her, especially Chris Hemsworth (Thor). The same goes for her saying she doesn't care what a man thinks of that crappy Oprah movie. Why does she also not care what women think of her movie as it was a kids movie so should she only care what kids thought? Her logic is ridiculous!
And her YouTube channel is such pandering it's getting out of hand. It's necessary for an already rich celebrity to be propped up by the establishment and then the YouTube upper echelon management will say that everyone starts at the same level and everything is fair. Wow, kinda sounds like CNN and MSNBC, "WE ARE UNBIASED NEWS, we swear!" LOL. Yeah, keep telling yourself that, lol. And no one cares about her Animal Crossing island!
@dux lol me too and I'm excited for this! I loved Tomb Raider on the Saturn lol, no joke! I remember paying the tutorial mansion level and thinking, wow this is amazing it's like a huge open world to find secrets! This was unusual back in 1996!
@Damo it has nothing to do with her love of Nintendo. It has to do with the fact that she downright hates men. Any person who would throw their boyfriend out because of a game is already suspect anyway. But her male bashing doesn't stop there as she also said she doesn't care what men think about her movie and she's down right hypocrite. I think it's coincidence that she started a YouTube channel and immediately gets monetized, trending, etc, lol. I don't mind you posting the news but don't be so baity about it. And let's be honest, Brie is as much of a gamer as all those twitch streamers with their breasts hanging out are, which is NOT! Just because you like Animal Crossing doesn't make you a gamer. This is starting to sound like all those "game urinalists" who start their articles and reviews with, "I've been a fill-in-the-blank fan for years and I've played all the blank-games but..."
Warface runs on the CryEngine so there is your first look. I missed this game so I'm excited for it. I doubt the Switch version will be here in July. We are still waiting on Doom eternal, remember that everyone?!
@BeefyDeedz are you crazy? Actors are just that, ACTORS! You don't have to be gay to play a gay person. You don't have to be black to voice a black character. Now if you used black face and tried to do it in live video that would be racist. Get over yourself. Stop being offended by everything. GET A LIFE, then you won't be so worried about a Rastafarian video game character!
As for the game dev, you had people who gave you money predicated on the fact that it was coming to the Wii u and then when it failed understandably the Switch. But now you grab the big money on top of Sony's money and expect us to buy your game? Shove off!
Man I friggin loved this game on the DS! I spent hours playing this to death and getting the best parts. And I never thought of it like Pokemon but it was similar. I'm so pissed they ruined what could have been a must buy for me if not just for nostalgia sake.
Yeah I don't understand why ANY GTA game has not been brought to the Switch get? It would be easy money!? It blows my mind really when games like the outer worlds and the Witcher 3 look and run amazingly on the hardware.
@capturescaptures I have nothing against trans people or any others but I feel that even entertaining the idea that a 5 year old knows what is best for themselves is comical. And YES they ARE castrating some of the children. Children have NO IDEA what they are doing which is why their parents are responsible for them till they turn 18. Pronouns and clothes, don't make me laugh. So if you child says they want to be Batman you don't buy them a utility belt and let them swing off the roof. Pronouns are also a joke. No one in the real world uses pronouns but that is a topic for another day. It's an oxymoron to call them a trans child as the word child denotes that they don't have any idea what they are doing. As high as 95% of so called trans kids grow out of it. And suicide rates among trans individuals is in upwards of 40%+ so if my kids started to show signs I would do everything in my power to stop them. Any parent who wouldn't is not a good parent and not doing their job. Trans people are free to live their life safe from any harm and any governmental restrictions, just like us ALL.

@Beermonkey more like FIFA 18...
Re: A New Patch Is In The Works For The Switch Version Of The Outer Worlds
It's now been two and a half months since that tweet about the patch and three months since the game released. I mean WTF, where is the update? The console versions get updates all the time but we haven't even had one. What a scam. I wish I could bring my copy back!
Re: Nintendo Is Deleting Hacked Dream Island Uploads In Animal Crossing: New Horizons
@Darkyoshi98 they didn't add cloud save. They added a backup but it only updates every once in a while and you have to call Nintendo support to restore. Also its limited to a broken or lost device. They said in the last update that they are setting up a way to transfer saves to another device but it won't be ready till fall.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 1st)
I'm playing Crysis and loving it! I missed it last generation and it plays like gangbusters on the switch!
Re: Nintendo Is Deleting Hacked Dream Island Uploads In Animal Crossing: New Horizons
What doesn't make sense to me is that we pay for their online service that is a glorified cloud save for most of us that don't play the online classic games. And why can't I have cloud save on Splatoon, Animal Crossing or Mario Kart (and more)? The hackers already have control of the Switch file system so you aren't stopping them from anything, just hurting regular Switch owners who want a backup their games in case of emergencies?! Or what about owners who have a "home" switch and an "away" lite switch? Why can't they seemlessly switch between their switch's without a huge save game conflict? Why must Nintendo be so anal and so unequivocally stupid at the same time?! I would understand if their hardware was completely locked down and they didn't want to open the door to hackers but that ship has sailed. And you are in first place heading into another console generation yet you have announced NO new games or hardware for the rest of the 2020? Why haven't you enticed Activision and Rockstar to bring GTA or CoD to the Switch?
Re: Review: Crysis Remastered - A Technical Miracle And One Of The Best Shooters On Switch
@Dark_Magician this game is NOT blurry at all. I ONLY play in handheld and it looks sharp and crisp 80% of the time. This is NOTHING like Doom or Wolfenstein which can be vasaline messes in handheld mode. Sometimes when you have vehicles, explosions, and tons of men on screen it takes a quality hit but not often. It also has great AI, way above any game I've ever played on the switch (or many other consoles for that matter). I bought this one originally just to support Saber interactive. They're quality can't be topped on the switch, heck the Outterworlds team needs to call then to fix their game.
Re: Random: Brie Larson's Boyfriend Said She Was Taking Super Mario Galaxy Too Seriously, So She Threw Him Out
Slowdive said the below and I got the response in an email from NL but I couldn't find it in this thread. So I posted their response and mine:
"Slowdive said:
@Fifth313ment She doesn't hate men, nor did she ever said that she did. Stop getting your "news" or "information" from opportunistic reactionaries like TheQuartering who created this ridiculous outrage culture.
@Damo She has a new video up on her Animal Crossing island.
Thu 16th 07:14"
@Slowdive have you never watched any of Larson's videos? When she talks about "not" hating white men her facial expressions are enough to show she does hate them. Not to mention she says it like 3 times. And none of this has ANYTHING to do with @TheQuartering.
Any man who watches any of her videos can see she loathes men. In the Avengers movie interviews you could tell the whole cast of the movie hated her, especially Chris Hemsworth (Thor). The same goes for her saying she doesn't care what a man thinks of that crappy Oprah movie. Why does she also not care what women think of her movie as it was a kids movie so should she only care what kids thought? Her logic is ridiculous!
And her YouTube channel is such pandering it's getting out of hand. It's necessary for an already rich celebrity to be propped up by the establishment and then the YouTube upper echelon management will say that everyone starts at the same level and everything is fair. Wow, kinda sounds like CNN and MSNBC, "WE ARE UNBIASED NEWS, we swear!" LOL. Yeah, keep telling yourself that, lol. And no one cares about her Animal Crossing island!
Re: Rumour: Is A Tomb Raider Collection Coming To Nintendo Switch?
@dux lol me too and I'm excited for this! I loved Tomb Raider on the Saturn lol, no joke! I remember paying the tutorial mansion level and thinking, wow this is amazing it's like a huge open world to find secrets! This was unusual back in 1996!
Re: Don't Worry, Crysis Remastered Is Still Coming To Nintendo Switch On July 23rd
I missed this on the 360 so I'm excited to play it for the first time! Also I want to support the dev, saber interactive as they are top notch!
Re: Random: Brie Larson's Boyfriend Said She Was Taking Super Mario Galaxy Too Seriously, So She Threw Him Out
@Damo it has nothing to do with her love of Nintendo. It has to do with the fact that she downright hates men. Any person who would throw their boyfriend out because of a game is already suspect anyway. But her male bashing doesn't stop there as she also said she doesn't care what men think about her movie and she's down right hypocrite. I think it's coincidence that she started a YouTube channel and immediately gets monetized, trending, etc, lol. I don't mind you posting the news but don't be so baity about it. And let's be honest, Brie is as much of a gamer as all those twitch streamers with their breasts hanging out are, which is NOT! Just because you like Animal Crossing doesn't make you a gamer. This is starting to sound like all those "game urinalists" who start their articles and reviews with, "I've been a fill-in-the-blank fan for years and I've played all the blank-games but..."
Re: Crysis Remastered Gameplay Trailer And Release Date Leak Ahead Of Official Announcement
Warface runs on the CryEngine so there is your first look. I missed this game so I'm excited for it. I doubt the Switch version will be here in July. We are still waiting on Doom eternal, remember that everyone?!
Re: Game Originally Planned For Wii U, Then Switch, Winds Up As A PS5 Timed-Exclusive
@BeefyDeedz are you crazy? Actors are just that, ACTORS! You don't have to be gay to play a gay person. You don't have to be black to voice a black character. Now if you used black face and tried to do it in live video that would be racist. Get over yourself. Stop being offended by everything. GET A LIFE, then you won't be so worried about a Rastafarian video game character!
As for the game dev, you had people who gave you money predicated on the fact that it was coming to the Wii u and then when it failed understandably the Switch. But now you grab the big money on top of Sony's money and expect us to buy your game? Shove off!
Re: Review: Synaptic Drive - A Fun But Bare-Bones Custom Robo Successor
Man I friggin loved this game on the DS! I spent hours playing this to death and getting the best parts. And I never thought of it like Pokemon but it was similar. I'm so pissed they ruined what could have been a must buy for me if not just for nostalgia sake.
Re: New Amazon Listing Teases Second Unannounced Take-Two Game For Switch
Yeah I don't understand why ANY GTA game has not been brought to the Switch get? It would be easy money!? It blows my mind really when games like the outer worlds and the Witcher 3 look and run amazingly on the hardware.
Re: 3D Realms' Ion Fury Brings Old-School FPS To Switch Next Month
@capturescaptures I have nothing against trans people or any others but I feel that even entertaining the idea that a 5 year old knows what is best for themselves is comical. And YES they ARE castrating some of the children. Children have NO IDEA what they are doing which is why their parents are responsible for them till they turn 18. Pronouns and clothes, don't make me laugh. So if you child says they want to be Batman you don't buy them a utility belt and let them swing off the roof. Pronouns are also a joke. No one in the real world uses pronouns but that is a topic for another day. It's an oxymoron to call them a trans child as the word child denotes that they don't have any idea what they are doing. As high as 95% of so called trans kids grow out of it. And suicide rates among trans individuals is in upwards of 40%+ so if my kids started to show signs I would do everything in my power to stop them. Any parent who wouldn't is not a good parent and not doing their job. Trans people are free to live their life safe from any harm and any governmental restrictions, just like us ALL.
