No point in getting multiple Switch consoles because there is no way to transfer your data...its one of the main reasons why I haven't gotten a ColorWare switch console.
@FullbringIchigo @Bruh Yeah lol In the amount of time it takes any of the other characters to drive one lap, he would have already done it 100x over XD
This is like 3 years away at least. The cooling tech is no where near what it needs to be to make this work. Also even if we were to get everything in there, battery would be like an hour because the cooling would take up the most space.
@Equinox Oh I whole heartedly agree. They seem like splendid guys and geeks like us. I have just been burned before on Indiegogo for $60, and another for $25, so I am just a bit gun-shy from my past experience.
@ElekidDude Like I would not mind paying the $115 (if a cheaper option is not available) for the charger and case if it's met it goal and it has a few days left. Then I will feel a bit more secure with everything.
Looks great but I don't particularly like Indiegogo's way of payments. You have to pay upfront rather than pay if the actual campaign succeeds.
I have read the terms on what happens to my $75 if it fails and its a 75%/25% shot of getting your full money back. Its all up to the campaign holder to get your money back. That is way to risky for my tastes. If this was on kickstarter, I would be all over this.
@Anti-Matter Yeah quite a few games on the Japanese eShop have multiple language options. All the NEOGEO games, I am Setsuna, Disgaea 5 Complete to name a few
Switch would have sold well over the 500,000 if was released during the Holiday's and Nintendo actually kept stock. x3. But Yeah I will expect way over 500,000 this holiday season with a brand new Mario coming.
@Ahiam94 Its not. You get a code inside the box. Which is why its the same price XD . This is what the amazon listing says when you ordered the special edition.
Great Job getting my hopes up with putting Rogue Squadron in the title then dashing them just as quickly thinking a new Rogue Squadron is coming to Switch.
They need to have all unlocks to be available through all versions of the game if they eventually port this over. I understand they don't want PS4 players playing with PC players, but what exactly is the point of linking my battle.net id when I can't play or chat with my friends on battle.net or have access to any of my purchases.
I don't remember any new gaming hardware having this many games in its first year, especially with this many first party exclusives!!
Only two of my games will be physical, the rest will be digital until around April. What are you guys week 1 games? Mine are Zelda, Bomberman, I am Setsuna, Shovel Knight, Blaster Master Zero, Snipperclips and maybe FAST RMX.
GAME has an INCREDIBLY HORRIBLE order / payment system in place. Whether they are charging people 6 times for an order, canceling preorders, etc, they always seem to screw their customers.
@fluggy That would have to be done manually essentially and creates A LOT of extra cost in the manufacturing of the piece of tech. Its standardized for a reason to lower costs everywhere. If everything had custom sizes, the end product would cost a lot more. Pratically everything uses the same standardized flash memory. Your phone could very well have the same flash memory as your Wii U as your PSP Go, as your kindle, as your tablet etc etc.
@fluggy Its about binary in a sense. Thats how computers read memory. its always 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096, etc. 1TB is essentially 1024GB. Its about standardization. You essentially can't make custom drives that are random sizes.
@speedracer216 lol nah you can never have enough HDD space. In regards to Micro SD's I suspect 512gb or 1TB to be out by the end of the year for around $200. There are ones that you can find today, and say they are 512GB, are 100% fake. They just hack the card to say whatever they want when it actually is like 32gb or something.
@Henmii If I recall, if you are an independent developer, your game will not get a physical release unless Nintendo wants it to. I am sure if you want to get a physical release, you would have to possibly pay for the carts / enter a deal with Nintendo who then becomes the publisher, who then gets some of your profits on top of whatever percentage they get for putting it on the eShop. You will also have to develop a digital version and a physical version of your game.
In short, indie devs get more return if they do digital only.
I will wait. By the time the Switch comes out the 256gb will be under $100 I am sure of it. I was going to buy a 128GB when it originally came out but it was $200 and I waited like 3 months and it was already around $60.
I am so excited to finally play Disgaea 5 and I am Setsuna. I have been holding off for some reason that I dont know why but so freaking hyped. Wonderboy looks really good too.
@Mega_Yarn_Poochy In regards to releases for iOS one can never really guarantee a release date unless it passes all of Apples tests first. Like it could take a week for your app to pass through or it could take a month. They must have passed the tests. You can actually set up to have your app go live at an exact time worldwide.
@Chris720 There is a USB 3.0 port on the back of the dock, right above where you plug in the power cable. Also Zelda is 13.4GB. Other games will range probably from 500mb to 30GB. Really in theory you could have your favorite games on the switch and then transfer over the ones you want to play onto the Switch. Yeah I know there is some people who just love to have everything on them, but really how many games will you need to carry around with you. At the moment 256gb is enough.
@JaxonH Lol the comment system screwed up. You were supposed to get the reply below. The one you got was for someone who asked if it was internal or included SD card.
"More than likely the 256Gb mSD card will go down I price by then lol. I was going to get a 128gb mSD card when they first came out for $200 and I decided not too. I waited like three months and I got it for $65 with prime shipping. When the switch comes out, the 256gb mSD will probably be around $80." All the best!

@RenanKJ The 32GB is internal. You can expand that by buying a mSD.

This is like 3 years away at least. The cooling tech is no where near what it needs to be to make this work. Also even if we were to get everything in there, battery would be like an hour because the cooling would take up the most space.
It also would be like twice as thick.
Re: SwitchCharge Is A Case Which Gives Your Nintendo Switch 12 Hours Of Stamina
@Nicolaison Then the site has mixed messaging then. I read this: https://support.indiegogo.com/hc/en-us/articles/205665518-What-happens-to-my-money-if-a-campaign-fails-
Which tells me its up to the campaigner to give me my money back if it fails.
Indiegogo really needs to have a straight forward message then on what happens.

Re: Random: Would You Trade Your Brand New Nintendo Switch For A Fully-Boxed SNES?
IN A HEARTBEAT NO QUESTION on one condition.
If the SNES box was MINT and It was 100% never opened / used. Basically like it was "just taken off of a store shelf".
If its just a used SNES that is complete in box with Zelda than I would pass.

Re: You'll Only Have Access To 25.9GB Of The Nintendo Switch's 32GB Of Storage
