@Flowerlark if I recall right. The Japanese version is also gonna be a download X-2 situation. If you do want to have both games physically you need the Asian version.
The description on Play-Asia states it comes with 2 carts instead of one.
@mantez I kind of don't want then to release SNES controllers for the Switch that are like the NES and Famicom ones they released.
Would rather they buddy up with 8BitDo to re-release the original SN30 and SF30 controllers that have the slanted Select & Start buttons, but allow official Nintendo logos on them.
Another correction to make is that you can buy the Let's Go and Smash Joycons from Nintendo Japan using a shipping service or sellers like Nin-Nin Games.
@Scottwood101 We have the replacement for VC already. The NES collection on Switch. No doubt over time they will with either update it ro be NES and SNES or just release a SNES app aswell.
@Bass_X0 I'll just play them on my real SNESes and N64s
@The-Chosen-one but 90 minutes is longer than anything can keep their attention. They can only play in 5 minutes increments and have to restart everytime trying to get a shiny fighter. ;p
I've kept both my orders for the PS One Classic (PAL and Japanese) if for anything but to add to the collection. They can sit next to my collection of SNES/SFC Classics and NES/FC Classics.
@RupeeClock I use solid plastic cases that I get off Amazon which hold 24 games. They work well and are only a couple of £ and also come with a cart shaped removable piece that holds 2 Micro SD cards.
They are not massive but I'm currently on my 6 case as I like having all my games on me when out and about. LOL
@WaveBoy input lag can be caused by almost anything.
Local Bluetooth interference System Bluetooth bandwidth saturation (to many devices active) System load (not normal for consoles due to hardware being dedicates to the task) Bluetooth in general creates lag Issues with game engine Bug in games code Additional processing such as emulators TV image processing
I believe there has been a recent patch for the PS4 version so I need to check the game, but at same time being that I didn't touch the switch demo till after I had already played a lot of the PS4 version it. So maybe training myself to handle the games lag made the Switch demo seem to be more reactive.
@huyi yeah they do and yes you do need a GameCube adapter. They run as a pro controller with only A,B,X,Y you use a JoyCon for the menus.
You can also configure if you have both centres as one drum and the edge on the other. Or you can have it so you just need to rock your hand over a single drum to have both centre and edge. You can't play multiplayer with 2 sets of Bongos.
I've got the PS4 version and still find the input lag was getting on my nerves at the start. But after a little brain training it worked OK. I've only tried the Switch Demo so far as I'm waiting for the full game to be delivered (Come on Play-Asia I need this).
I will say that I feel that the Switch version, both hand-held and docked, seemed to have less lag than the PS4. But tbh I won't really be able to make up my mind until I get my Switch version.
@ilikeike they've not done it for Ikaruga that still is only digital. I've asked them multiple times if they will create a physical copy with no reply.
@Arnold-Kage auto transfer using the newest save data. Stopping people from being able to restore to a previous say?
Yes they could. But would they take the time to slightly modify their initial implementation of cloud backup (even if it could be a very simple addition). Not like we've all be waiting for a way to keep our games saves save. Just incase something happens like.
1) System physical damage
2) Dodgy third party accessories
3) Bad firmware update from Nintendo bricking the system
4) Non removable battery fails
Someone is no doubt thinking "But you can use the system transfer process" which can't be done if the system is not able to be started. Thus we need cloud saves for every game that is on the system. Not just some/most.
@TJWorks I have no shame playing this game. I've had it since the Japanese launch. It's a good laugh and is what I expected from an Senran Kagura game. It is a very particular style of game that has a very Japanese "Otaku" stance.
@Damo seriously go back and watch it again. It was just not He-Man for Teela. More He-Man for Duncan
@BensonUii If you want both copies of MegaMan X to be on cart you need to buy the two separate games from Japan. Their 1+2 box is the same as the one released in the the US (you get one on cart and 2 comes as a digital code)
@Mountain_Man these are only for handheld mod so don't need the battery, rumble, or ZL or ZR buttons. It does work a lot better than the 4 button direction's when using a normal JoyCon. But I do prefer using my 8bitdo Pro controllers with a functional stand
@AlexOlney I opened up my one a couple of weeks back. The casing does look like Hori were originally going for a full joycon but stepped back to not step on toes so. So added some extra structure plastic to the casing inside
Meh, Still not physical games so not interested. I'll just wait for Limited Run Games and Super Rare Games to release the games in real physical editions.

Easier to say the official ones I am missing, I've also got all the Hori dpad units (I will never touch that Nyko rubbish)
1) The Labo competition ones
That is is all.

Re: Charge All Your Controllers At Once With This Switch Storage Dock, Pre-Orders Now Live
It also looks like it will fit the NES/Famicom controllers.
But I do feel that if they had 2 USB ports either side for charging other controllers would of made it better.

Oh wait Nintendo already sent us the FU on that one.

Re: Free Switch Demo For Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! Now Available In Europe
@huyi you can use a single Bongo set with any other control method. You just can't play multiplayer with just bongos
Re: Free Switch Demo For Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! Now Available In Europe

Re: Free Switch Demo For Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! Now Available In Europe
I love this game. Another great volume for the Taiko no Tatsujin series.
I used my Donkey Konga Bongos for the short period of time whille I was waiting for drums to turn up.
