Amazing! I'm going to repair mine just like this guy did! Thanks NintendoLife! I know some people at my work that can solder so I bet they'll do a great job. Plus I'm A QC Inspector so I'll know what a good solder looks like.
I feel the pain of that left joycon. I hope they fix it and I hope they offer an exchange and fast!!!! Also, make more pro controllers. I want one and can't find one.
I can tell you this, people at my work that aren't even gamers know what the Switch is. That's a good thing especially when I would talk to my friends that are gamers and they would ask me, "What's a Wii-U?"
Maybe people can't take care of their stuff and this is why you can't have nice things. I've had my 3DS since launch and it doesn't have a single scratch. I've docked my switch about a couple dozen times now just to see how cool it is to "Switch" back and forth from tv to handheld and not one scratch.
I don't put screen protectors on my phone either I just clip my claws short and don't put it in the same pocket as keys and change and you should be good.
Cmon now what gives? Sometimes I think people blow things out of proportion. But meh. Maybe I'm just lucky? I dunno.
Just not digging the art style. Same goes for that new indie plane shooter and fighter game. The art style is what killed it for me for all three. Now Shakedown Hawaii I like. I also like axioms verge but this .... no I can't. Wish I did cuz it sounds interesting.
So hyped for this game!!!!! This fast RMX, YookaLaylee and snipper clippers and Sonic mania and binding of Isaac and ....and... I think that's all I'm excited for as far as indies go. Oh wait Runner 3!!! And I think that's it. But still not bad. That's a lot of games I'm excited for. And I'm really picky. Like really picky about games.
What?! What the hell is this nonsense?! Oh no... I hope this doesn't become some regular trend. What's the point of the Switch? The selling point is being able to go from handheld to TV if you choose to. Requiring only one or the other is a buzz kill for me. Oh man. I don't understand.
I hope they improve on themes and add even more thematic integration into the UI. Imagine changing the text to "Mario Font". That would be cool. Or a sonic theme where you hear different songs from Sonic 2 depending if you're on at the home menu on on the settings screen. Instead of just one theme song like 3DS currently has.
I'm rockin out to Believer by Imagine Dragons. And I think it needs it. I'm getting hyper by the day. Video games are my sugar. It wouldn't hurt. Honestly get some internet surfing going. Put apps. !! Apps Nintendo! We need apps!!!pppssssss! (Said like Daffy Duck)
I don't know who to be upset at. These developers of Nintendo. Someone lied to me that's all I know.
Something is being dropped as far as communication. Nintendo says third party will be there but I'm just reading Nintendo news site and getting bad news after bad news of this game isn't coming to SWITCH. That game isn't coming to SWITCH. It's Wii U all over again? Don't make me regret preordering one already.
Wow. The Switch isn't a core platform. Dang... maybe I should cancel my preorder. This is a Nintendo site and this isn't good Nintendo news. Sounds like Wii U all over again. Maybe I should save myself the disappointment. I can't go through another generation with so few games like I did with Wii U. I had to pick up a whole new hobby. I learned a skill toy, yo-yo. Or "throwing" as they call it now a days. I'm glad I did but still. I miss video games.
That's way different than what was reported here or all over Reddit. By some tototutu wearing lie monger. I hate people talking about things when they know nothing! It can spread like wild fire and hurt the general perception of a consumer base.
Feel like you're hurting the SWITCH by posting about this. A year old game? A party game? You're making the Switch sound more like the Wii. I would never bring up party games or just dance. Anything but those games. Unless it's Mario Party or Rabbids then I get it. But this sounds horrible. So does just dance I don't know why it's so popular.
The app gives you anonymity. Sometimes you game with people online but maybe you don't want to give your personal info to them. Maybe you only know them from gaming. Or maybe ..... I don't know what the hell im saying. Yeah, it doesn't sound more convenient to use an app to voice chat no matter how you explain it to me. Ugh... maybe I'm just seeing how it could be better this way? They need to speak up about this online stuff as well as VC and back catalogue purchases because the system releases in 31 days and i feel like I'm left wondering some important details.
I just want to log in and download all my games. I'll give up my saves. I just want all my Wii U eShop and 3DSeshop purchases to carry over. Is that too much to ask? I'd buy a lot more if they. Confirmed I get to carry them thru each new device
What worries me is that they pushed Zelda back more than a year and didn't release anything for Wii U in 2 yrs and all their focus was on SWITCH and they only release with a 5 games. 2 of which they didn't create. Sky landers and just dance. So sad.
I've dabbled quite a bit in the eShop for Wii U and 3DS but I stopped a couple years ago simply because I wasn't sure if it would carry over to whatever their next console is. Well, here it is... can we carry over? I would've bought so many more VC games if I was assured they'd carry over.
@Rhydas thanks! That's what I understood "local multiplayer" to mean. From the original trailer reveal it looked like they were all sitting around and connected and playing each other. This is going to be amazing!!!!!! Love it! I can play a friend at work while on our lunch break. So cool. I'm really excited for Switch! I too wish they had more games but at the same time. I'm not rich. I couldn't buy them all at once with the console. So a steady stream will be fine with me. Just as long as it's steady and there's good variety. No more 8 month droughts like with Wii U. That was brutal.
If I have Splatoon 2 on my Switch and another person has Splatoon 2 on Switch and they're at the Park (no Wifi) (no cell phone) can we play against each other local device connectivity? Or do we need pay for service thru cell phones to connect? What about cell data? ????
I'm so disappointed. There were no confirmed games for launch. What's the point of buying? And what the hell have they been doing for 2 years? Because they haven't been releasing Wii U games I'll tell you that. Wow. So disappointed. So so disappointed.
I hope they don't throw a everything out there like they did with Wii U because a lot of those games never game. SmtXfe, Brothers, Project:CARS etc... I'm still bitter from that sizzle reel from the Feb 2013 Nintendo Direct. I hope they concentrate on release games and releasing that year for sure.
@Clownshoes "just s rebranded sheild tablet". Yeah, that plays Nintendo! With joy cons. It's going to be portable! Zelda and a proper new Mario are worth the purchase for me.

Re: Video: Nintendo Switch User Interface Shown Off In Leaked Footage

Or a sonic theme where you hear different songs from Sonic 2 depending if you're on at the home menu on on the settings screen. Instead of just one theme song like 3DS currently has.

Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
@OzHuski Thank you for clarifying that for me. 😊
Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
I must know,
If I have Splatoon 2 on my Switch and another person has Splatoon 2 on Switch and they're at the Park (no Wifi) (no cell phone) can we play against each other local device connectivity?
Or do we need pay for service thru cell phones to connect? What about cell data? ????

So it hot spot through our cell phones? What if your cellular provider doesn't offer unlimited data?
