I guess the extra tracks make up for the extra year I had to wait. I really should play the free copy I got with Twitch prime a few weeks ago. If it's good I'll buy a copy.
@Ambushdrum I'm the less musically inclined and I'm not sure this will be a good game for me. I'll probably get Avicii Invector. It's similar to the other games you speak of. I played Amplitude. Never heard of Frequency. Kind of irritated they didn't release it on the Switch when they did on the other devices.
@graysoncharles Clearly you don't remember Y2K. Nothing happened. It was a huge scare over computers thinking it was 1900 instead of 2000 because of the way the date was formatted. I didn't realize "third world" countries would no longer exist as of 2034. As long as they exist this technology is needed. Maybe you need a lesson on who makes up the majority of the globe.
@Strictlystyles My comment matters more than yours. You are still comparing an Operating System to an Application. I'm sure there is plenty good reason to still support it. The world isn't just America and Europe.
@Strictlystyles I'm lost on what your point is. You were comparing an app to an OS. Which is like comparing apples to oranges. The article is about the app ending support for 32 bit hardware. You laughed like Microsoft is still supporting 32 bit hardware.
@Kidfunkadelic83 the fact that the flu has been around for a while means we have herd immunity. For us to achieve herd immunity 60% of the population has to be infected. Currently the fatality rate for those infected is .5 - 1%. Which would mean 200 - 400 million people dying before acquiring immunity. That would be equivalent to killing off all of the US to almost all of North America.
This game moves too slow for me so I jumped ahead. The museum is nice. It's larger than I expected. Timmy and Tommy have opened up Nooks Cranny. Nook has me setting up 3 furnished houses for new residents.
@Grumblevolcano Not true. I left PC gaming because I was tired of digital. I have twice as many physical games as I do digital. I haven't spent more than $20 on a digital game.
@Ernest_The_Crab Traditionally, in many temperate regions (especially Europe), the summer solstice is seen as the middle of summer and referred to as "midsummer".
@Ernest_The_Crab Equinoxes and Solstices mark the middle of the season. lol So unless the game releases in the next 3 days it's not releasing this summer.
About to head to the store now to see if they have any. I mean why not pick up the new one. I want a second dock and if the old ones joy cons start to drift I would have to buy a new set. Just those 2 things alone will run you $160.
@retro_player_22 You are free to your own opinion. I'm sure there were other titles that may have been interesting but part of the problem were the graphics were terrible. My worry is that this Lite version will bring down the quality of the games.
@ZeldaNX At the end of the day the Lite ends up being more expensive. Which is somewhat genius on Nintendo's part. To play a game as intended you still need to buy $80 joy-cons, $10 grip, and probably a $30 dock
@ZeldaNX No. If you drop the Hdmi cable, dock, joy-con grip, and downgrade the left joy-con to the Hori D pad joy-con. It would be less than $200. The dock alone is $90. The grip is $10 The Hdmi cable is probably $5. The difference between the joy-con is about $25.
This could be a terrible solution. It's possible that they just crippled the original switch. I might now have a $300 portable device instead of a $300 home console. I guess only time will tell.
@teamdave2002 I have had my switch for less than a year and have 15 games. It would be 16 but I'm waiting for the physical release of Terraria. I bought a DS a few months before the switch because I felt like the switch should have been cheaper. The only game I bought was Minecraft. I wanted to get Terraria on it and I thought about getting a Pokemon game. I've never played Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing but they seemed like they might be fun. That probably would have been about it as far as games for me.
In the end this thing isn't much cheaper. It has no kickstand. Which means you will need to buy a dock. If you dock it you need to buy a controller since it doesn't have removable joy cons. This thing seems terrible.
I was hoping the original was going to be at that price point when it came out. I guess there won't be a price drop anytime soon. I feel like they should have just sold the original with out all the stuff for $199
Not sure how I feel about this. It looks like they made a replacement for the DS. When I bought the switch I didn't want a straight up portable. The DS seemed like it only had a handful of games worth playing. The upside is the switch might have a really long life span since the DS seemed like it was around forever.
I was going to say FINALLY when I read the headline. I didn't think they would do a physical release. Looks like I'll be waiting a little longer. Which is fine I wanted to get Graveyard Digger this week.

@Kidfunkadelic83 30,000 is a long way from the 250,000 you claim the UK had.
Re: Pokémon GO Player Ignores Italy's Coronavirus Lockdown, Tells Police "I Have To Hunt The Pokémon"
@Kidfunkadelic83 Where are you getting your results from? WHO claims the flu mortality rate is between 250,000-500,000 a year globally.

Re: Nintendo Switch Lite Officially Revealed, Launches This September
@Krull It's going to be a while before there is a price drop. Nintendo just made sure of that.
