@KoopaTheGamer Eep Barbra Derkle! Somebody's going to get laid in college.

@Yosher Cord? I mean, Wavebird right?

Does a Wavebird work with the Switch 2 is the big question now... Hmmm.

@SuperRetroArt I am not talking about the pirates. I am talking about the family that can't afford the system at all and they see a deal too good to be true and they do it trying to save Christmas or the 13 year old uses their saved money and buy this second hand and the Facebook person vanished after they get the cash.

Don't be so defensive. I am just saying, a lot of people think poor folks are stupid but they are really just willing to take on more risk because they have no other options. The world absolutely sucks and is as indifferent as it gets.

Back 30 years ago you could at least work extra hours, but now companies won't even let you do that for money.

VB tennis was freaking wonderful.

@SuperRetroArt I am in your corner, but you're completely overlooking what it means to be poor. People get into bad situations because they don't have the options available to them.

@EriXz well, I mean that's a little unfair. I stored games in the official Zelda case that came with BoTW, and the games fell out of it when I was out and I lost several games. Life happens... That being said that's not a good justification for doing the first part of piracy.

Everyone is going to be touchy about this because it's the same as banning guns. A gun is a device that can be used to do bad crimes. The only way to end gun crime is a gun ban as evident from the countries without guns. But some will always argue against it because they believe they are good people and guns will empower them. Well pirates believe they are good and the mig will empower them so they don't want it banned.

Who is right is a philosophy question. We should at least be able to agree that piracy is not a victimless crime. While it may not hurt Kart sales, it could doom that indie company who expects to sell 30k copies and they find that 15% of those sales are gone because day 1 the game is backed up online.

Except that the system still works. The online component is an additional service. EULA protects this practice. I mean I do hope Nintendo loses this because EULA is kinda a bs armor that only corporations get to use... But at the same time I do believe that there needs to be a period where piracy does not occur so the business can make maximum money. I feel like Nintendo should be allowed the system generation to do its business without having to deal with chodes that just don't want to pay for games. The game back up stuff should be allowed as soon as they move on from the system. Like the Switch 1 should be fair game very soon.

@NielsNL I mean the points, idk anything about it.

I have owned every Nintendo system and hundreds of games. I have no idea what my Nintendo store is.

This is denied... But it makes a lot of sense. You can't cut the primary company out of the MSRP profits and expect to keep getting stock.

Amazon is rapidly becoming a minefield of a company. They don't care about anything but being a marketplace. Anyone can sell on the site if you can put random letters together for a company name. And it's really bad for the way things used to be. That may mean cheaper costs for consumers, but you might be getting bootlegs or worse.

I can confirm this is a problem but all the solutions are just troubleshooting. The problem is likely within the dock. I have been having all the issues and Nintendo said the next step is mail in of the system. Also the Internet has shown that people with this issue plus the dropouts usually can fix it with a new dock.

I have been waiting a bit because I want to actually play my system right now, but I'm going to be sending in the system soon.

Finishing Cyberpunk and Balatro. Then maybe a short hike?

@molkom for sure!

I haven't filled up because I deleted a bunch of demos and stuff from the OG prior to the transfer to download Balatro.

I don't do many digital games, but I still want the storage because I know that I am not going to be given the option. Plus honestly if the news story about the physical cards needing to be powered up to maintain data... If it's true then I am screwed anyway.

I trust Steam for digital, but I don't really trust Nintendo or anyone else yet. Microsoft and Amazon kinda screwed me over with digital.

Fight the might, the right of the dragon!

I don't really like this franchise at all but what we will see.

@Chimichanga which makes it more confounding that there's not a company doing 2 TB RN. I mean, they should know that limitation inherently created demand for that card.

Even people who will never fill the switch memory are going to assume it's best to just get a 2 TB card to feel secure. Honestly, if you tell me 512 is 50 bucks and a 2 TB is 300, I am still going to assume it's better to buy the one card for maximum value. I have always bought the biggest memory available. There has to be millions like me.

Everything is positive here at Nintendo life, it's almost like we are all fanboys that see no wrong in corporations or are giving positive mentions, or pos-mens, to everyone willing to pay...

How about you apologize for my switch having defects. Half kidding. I am satisfied as long as I get a replacement dock.

@Chimichanga I think I read along the way the system has a max limit SD card size... I think it was 2 or 4 TB, but I'm too lazy to search for the article.

@NiallMitch14 Yeah, it's extremely disappointing that SanDisk or Samsung doesn't have their act together enough to announce card sizes that max out the S2 capacity are at least on their way.

As far as I can tell, we will be getting a perfect storage solution for the system sometime after pigs fly or society collapses... And I don't really want to wait two years!

@Gorlock Skill was a big part of at least three of the games following SNES, but I do agree that Nintendo thinks everyone needs to be protected from hard games and that's very frustrating to me.

I don't want Dark Souls, but I also don't want my games to be completely lacking in skill.

But honestly, Mario Kart 8 was way worse than World in regards of challenge versus rubber banding. I can't speak to online, but I know from the single player game that it's just not the same as it was. My favorites were 64 and double dash. I felt that with those games I could win all the time with skill.

There's no Question the older the Yoshi game the better it is, because Nintendo decided Yoshi was easy mode Mario after Yoshi's Island 2. Meanwhile they were making all their games easier... So basically Yoshi went from my favorite character in Mario to the character that will have pretty full games.

Nintendo is extremely sexist in that way. If a character is shown to be more popular with girls, they make the game pitifully easy. It's a real shame because the games are so creative.

What do you think,more or less sales than 1 2 switch?

This game gets worse all the time.

Exactly what I said in the other comments. Just needed time to clear legal and PR for a response.

Tool for making you and only you more money. You transparent tool.

@SirLink That is the rub isn't it. I am not sure what to think. I definitely know the price of the system is inflated because of features I never asked for or can't use versus a better screen. There's no doubt we should have had a great OLED option, but that would have raised the price even for those who wouldn't want it.

Someone was always going to be upset with the system because every system is a compromise. That's why we all don't have 100k PC systems. We have to give and take.

The screen isn't going to measure up because they honestly focused on the TV more than the handheld.

I wish we could all be happy but that's is not going to happen. This is just documenting the compromises Nintendo made. If you want to interpret this as negative press, unfair, or a hit piece... That's a subjective value judgement. Unfortunately, the data is objectively conclusive. That's where the controversy comes from, the discipline to stay away from the subjective.

I am more concerned about how this is playing out in politics than with the Switch 2.

I am complaining about a lot when it comes to the system, but I am enjoying the system. I am not going to get emotional over this.

It's kind of sums up the fault with our society and species that people are arguing against a chart of numbers that are pulled from testing in a scientific manner. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact.

This really should be a patch and a new release that would have been 60 for the DLC and game and Switch 2 version.

But also a free download for those who already have it. I wish I could get this game but I just know the value isn't there for someone without online play.

I wish they would have mirrored the z button to modernize it. I love that spring Z. Tiger Woods PGA 2003 used it perfectly. You would button mash the z to generate spin after the drive while the ball was in the air. It was the perfect arcade style mash this button. All Mario Party mad masher games should have used that button. I would have loved to see that z have a spot on the joycons and analog shoulder buttons as well.

Sometimes the last is just better.

@undeadly In all fairness, you can't admit fault immediately without careful actions in corporate law. If they immediately said, oh ***** we made a mistake let's fix it... That sounds moral and right, because it is, but someone will definitely sue over something in regards to it. It could be really, really bad. Where they deny any issue, put engineers and lawyers on the problem and they might find a solution without admitting fault in a couple of weeks that will help the people affected and avoid lawsuits. Or in the very least, find a way to positively salvage reputation instead of flushing the company down the drain.

Or they could never address the issue...we won't know for a bit. But you should know, first you must never admit fault in legal situations. That's how you end up paying for imaginary whiplash in a litigatious society.

@stav1710 The slide track that the joycons locked into on the OG Switch. It's superior to the magnet system in several ways. I preferred the sound, the stability, the ease of taking them off and on quickly on the dock, and the feel more than the magnet Joycon 2. I feel it's worse in practice in every way. I think it was changed for a cool factor and perhaps a production reason. I believe they should have worked the mouse into the original mechanism. I won't conceded this point.

I guess the one positive is no wireless charging means better charging efficiency. I am considered getting a second set of joycons so I never need to remove the joycons from the S2 again.

They definitely should delay this game and rework it visually to have some charm.

@stav1710 Jsux or something like that? The magnet release is too easy to be unlocked if there's ridges under the system. Be careful if you have ridges in the system or the system can move left to right in the case.

The dock also has a flaw for me. I will probably send the dock in for repairs, but the scratch was light and I pay attention to if it's charging now.

I just think it was a bad decision to get rid of the slider.

@FoxyDude If they had some sort of original IP it might be more appealing... But then they run the risk of offending the paralyzed. They had to go this route to avoid fallout. This game was a bad idea. Again, this would have been a good game to use Mii characters for, but they seemed to have abandoned that.

This is going to be a bomb.

Sonic 2, then Sonic and Knuckles, then Sonic Spinball and then that's it. Sonic is extremely overrated.

I would have rather not had 120hz and HDR to have a quality OLED screen.

My Joycon doesn't charge half the time and it's really hard to remove them in the dock... But they came off in my carrying case and scratched my screen. I am not a fan of the magnet system.

Sorry, I don't have money to spend for online play. I am still mad my online play for Splatoon 2 got ripped away from me.

I would be happy with 24 fps and no blurring.

@HugoGED well said!

Yoshi for life.

Cyberpunk!!! Best launch game on the system.

The cases aren't a huge complaint for me, the game key cards are.
