@frankabus I am pretty sure given how cheap the part is Nintendo might just offer a replacement upon request. That probably cost them at most £0.20 to make
To be fair guys, most tablets (which is essentially what this thing is, a gaming tablet) have at most 64GB memory. So either way an SD card was going to be needed anyway.
@JLPick Sounds like the only thing I need is more isopropyl alcohol (which I will ask my around at home for) and a micro-fibre cloth. Are there any brands you can recommend for the cloth?
It's great to hear I am on form for cleaning my kit. Since the PS1 era I have been really protective of my games given how Croc got scratched beyond repair
@JLPick Excuse my lack of knowledge (I am a beginner collector) but I put my games in seal-able plastic bags and the bags are put into black plastic boxes which are confirmed by the manufacturer to be UV resistant and are kept in my room upstairs.
Do you think they will be safe there? Also any tips on cleaning the discs? I already use isopropyl alcohol for cleaning my cartridge contacts
@Jessica286 I am sure they will eventually. But having priorities right now is a good idea for Nintendo. Solid experience first, new (or in this case old) features later
That is actually great to see! In just a short time, BoxBoy has become popular even though it is small amount of popularity to earn itself a physical copy and that itself do well.
I really hope it comes over to the UK as that amiibo has a spot in my collection
@BrizzoUK By chance, did you order from Amazon during that £10 off a £50+ pre-order period and grab Breath of the Wild and 1-2-Switch?
Also, this game is seriously underrated. Once you get to play it with a group of friends, its potential really shines. I got to and I pre-ordered it the moment we were heading home from the Switch event
We even plan to make this our March tournament. It is that good
In all honesty if I had to guess, @SLIGEACH_FIRE probably has a set of interests that the Wii U did not scratch and currently the Switch has not either.
It could be certain games, certain hardware features or probably the way Nintendo handled it.
Can I ask @SLIGEACH_FIRE? What would honestly make you buy a Switch day one?
@PotatoTheG Not even that Potato. You know what I would like to see? Ports of games that never got released western. The Fire Emblems we missed due to being Japan-exclusive.
@BionicDodo This doesn't really spoiler a lot. It is like a chapter title of a rumour. Do we know what the visual style will look like? New game content? Improvements? What is bundled with it?
This to me is not the bothersome stuff. Screenshots would both me more.

Wow that is impressive! Well done Shin'en!
Re: John Cena Is 'Floored' By The Technology In The Nintendo Switch
@fiben1002 You'll have to excuse me as my knowledge in John Cena is missing. What on earth is the invisible joke about?
Re: VOEZ is a Nintendo Switch eShop Launch Title in Europe
Less than €0.20 for a track? That's pretty reasonable. As long as it does good I will be picking this title up!
Re: Rumour: New Zelda Series amiibo Might Be On The Way
My boy! This is what all heroes strive for!
Re: Here's What The Day One Nintendo Switch System Update Will Do
@Yhdekskymmenen Do people actually do that?
Re: Wii Karaoke U To Close In Europe By End Of March
I guess this is really the swansong for the Wii U
Re: Preview: Immersing Ourselves in the World of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I am so glad this is the final game in my Wii U collection and the start of my Switch collection
Re: Japanese Nintendo Switch Owners Will Be Playing Neo Geo Games Next Month
Bet people weren't expecting this to happen so soon
This is great news as well!
Re: Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons Are Disconnecting, And No One Seems To Know Why
I heard the Day One patch fixes this so we should probably wait and see
Re: Don't Worry, The Nintendo Switch Kickstand Is Designed To Snap Off
@frankabus I am pretty sure given how cheap the part is Nintendo might just offer a replacement upon request. That probably cost them at most £0.20 to make
Re: Snipperclips Confirmed For European Nintendo Switch Launch
Fantastic news! I am sure this game will be a cut above the rest
Re: Don't Worry, The Nintendo Switch Kickstand Is Designed To Snap Off
Well that is a relief! Good to hear it can "stand" a good "kicking"
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch Launch Games: The Complete List
I am so tempted by Snipperclips but I am holding out for a retail release. And somehow Bomberman R feels more worth its price now
Re: Even When Under Pressure The Nintendo Switch Isn't Too Hot To Handle
@gcunit None that I heard when playing Mario Kart in handheld mode
Re: Even When Under Pressure The Nintendo Switch Isn't Too Hot To Handle
It's still going to be a "hot" console even though it has good air conditioning
Re: Retro: This Is Why We Should Probably Be Glad Nintendo Stuck With Carts For The N64
@JLPick Thanks a lot! I will be off to Tesco at lunch to have a look
Re: Video: New Japanese Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Commercial Contains A Massive Reveal
Dragon's are in a lot of the Zelda games. I am having a hard time thinking of a Zelda game that didn't have a dragon. Maybe Majora's Mask?
Re: Pokémon + Mega Bloks Is A Thing That Is Happening, And We're Totally Cool With That
I really like that Gyarados one. I might have to pick it up!
Re: RiME Will Take Around 10 Hours To Complete "If You Really Want To Take Your Time"
@SLIGEACH_EIRE It is meant to be a Team Ico wannabe so that was always going to disappoint you.
Re: Dragon Quest Heroes I | II Download on Nintendo Switch Will Definitely Need a Micro SD Card
@Dysnomia Storage yes! Sorry, long day haha
Re: Dragon Quest Heroes I | II Download on Nintendo Switch Will Definitely Need a Micro SD Card
@gcunit I want to know this as well. The more Warriors games on the Switch the better. Hyrule Warriors was incredible on the Wii U and 3DS
Re: Dragon Quest Heroes I | II Download on Nintendo Switch Will Definitely Need a Micro SD Card
To be fair guys, most tablets (which is essentially what this thing is, a gaming tablet) have at most 64GB memory. So either way an SD card was going to be needed anyway.
Re: Dragon Quest Heroes I | II Download on Nintendo Switch Will Definitely Need a Micro SD Card
@Dakt I think this will get localized. If DQH 1 got localized then a port of it and its sequel is definitely getting localized
Just a matter of when.
Re: 2013 Kickstarter Success Soul Saga Is Still Coming To The Wii U eShop
I talk to the developer a bit as we are both JRPG developers. If he says he has nothing to announce regarding a Switch version, I believe him
Also, he still stands by a Wii U version. Got to give him major props for that!
Re: Retro: This Is Why We Should Probably Be Glad Nintendo Stuck With Carts For The N64
@JLPick Thanks for the help! Having difficulty finding the fibre cloth on its own but I won't give up. I will have to ask around and see what works
Re: Random: Here's What Happens When A Toyota Takes On Street Fighter Baddie M. Bison
We need more adverts like this. Capcom, make it happen.
Re: Retro: This Is Why We Should Probably Be Glad Nintendo Stuck With Carts For The N64
@RandomNerds Perhaps you can find a way to back it up?

Re: Yoku's Island Express, an 'Open World Pinball Adventure', is Coming to Nintendo Switch
Have to admit, it looks pretty cool!

Re: Retro: This Is Why We Should Probably Be Glad Nintendo Stuck With Carts For The N64
I wonder what this means for the Gamecube, Wii and Wii U?
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's ESRB Rating Makes It Sound Like A Proper Laugh Riot
@SM4SHshorts hears SM4SH's joke
Looks at design for the Zelda cake....tears it up and just draws two circular cakes with a Master Sword on top of each one.
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's ESRB Rating Makes It Sound Like A Proper Laugh Riot
Somehow this makes me want the game even more XD
Re: Amazon Japan Suggests That the Fire Emblem Echoes amiibo Unlock a Special Dungeon
Tbh I see Amiibo as more figures then content locking. They are a collection to me and I love the figures. They really brighten up my room
Re: Video: Nintendo Really Wants You to Try Tank Troopers
I have to admit, it does look quite fun. I think I will give it a go!
Re: Video: These Japanese Commercials For 1-2-Switch Are Utterly Charming
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Fair enough. We both have our opinions.
Re: Video: These Japanese Commercials For 1-2-Switch Are Utterly Charming
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Have you tried the Nintendo Switch yet? Or it's games?
Re: Video: These Japanese Commercials For 1-2-Switch Are Utterly Charming
Where do people get this notion it should be a pack in? The bundle we're getting is already great value as it is already.
Not trying to cause heat but I am confused why this game HAS to be a pack in
Re: Google Trends Data Demonstrates Interest in Nintendo Switch
All those google searches are just me pressing the F5 button...
Re: Hackers Use Emulator to Make Game Boy, Mega Drive and SNES Games Playable on NES Mini
Behold the greatNESs of the hackers!
Seriously, kudos to the hackers for working it out so quickly. Very impressive!
Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks A Web Browser Because It's A "Dedicated Video Game Platform"

Re: BoxBoy! Retail Collection Hits Top 10 in Japan as Evergreen Titles Lead the Way
That is actually great to see! In just a short time, BoxBoy has become popular even though it is small amount of popularity to earn itself a physical copy and that itself do well.
I really hope it comes over to the UK as that amiibo has a spot in my collection
Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks A Web Browser Because It's A "Dedicated Video Game Platform"
Honestly I rarely use the Wii U or 3DS internet capabilities. I fail to see in this day and age any use for it. So I won't miss it at all.
Especially when I can pull out a phone or my laptop and search for it at a faster rate
Re: GBA Title Fullmetal Alchemist: Stray Rondo Gets Translated Into English
@Shiryu Sorry bud, that joke came up "short" for me personally
Re: Video: More 1-2-Switch Mini-Games Shown Off In New Series Of Trailers
@BrizzoUK HAH! I knew it! Because that is exactly what I did.Zelda for £41 and 1-2-Switch for £28? SO--O-OLD!!!

Re: Yes, You Can Charge Your Nintendo Switch In Tabletop Mode
Now that is an accessory I would want. Perfect!
