@Amsterdamsters: I've never had a scratch. Not even the time one of my dogs bumped me and I essentially dropped it into the slot. That being said, I do now have a screen protector, and I have a couple replacements on order. I may grab one of those dock covers though - they look nice.
I'm really looking forward to this. I love the boost gameplay from Unleashed and Generations. The sense of speed is exhilarating. I also see Red Star Rings are making a return.
I must be another one of the lucky ones... never had an issue with docking, scratches, or connections. Only issue I've really had was putting a screen protector on - still haven't gotten a clean attachment.
I've managed to make a veggie dish that restores 21 hearts. Still haven't used it yet though.
I do think they should have a seperare category that lists all the meals you've made thus far - I know you can look at a recipe, but the meal has to be in your inventory.
I backed the game originally. Managed to get all but two achievements on Steam. I'll have to do a couple more playthroughs - one for speed running and the other to tackle this difficulty.
I've been doing fine with mine - even have my iPad and iPhone on at the same time with no issue. Now that might change if I decide to hook up to a bigger TV or use my laptop. Guess I'll find out.
@JohnnyC: Lego Dimensions is fun, but their customer service stinks. I tried to get a new toy tag since one from a set I bought was defective, and they wanted me to jump through 50 million hoops just to get a replacement. I'll enjoy the stuff I have for it now, and maybe grab Supergirl if she's not a permanent exclusive, but that's it. And since Infinity's out, the only other figures I'll be buying is amiibo.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I love this game. It's the best one since the original Yoshi's Island, and I'm glad I have it showing up at my doorstep on Friday. I'm going to love running through this game again, and all the new features. Especially those stop-motion videos.
@New_Guest: Oh, believe me, I'm not against downloads by any means. I have dozens of games through Steam, my 3DS, and Wii U. But I love me some box artwork, so if I can find it, I'll grab it. Cartridges are pretty portable anyway, so I'll save hard drive space too.
I already have my console and Breath of the Wild paid off.
Definitely downloading Sonic Mania, and I'm snagging Super Mario Odyssey. I'm also leaning towards Minecraft and Skyrim mainly because that's more portable than my laptop. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is up in the air - I'm waiting a bit on the off-chance that the new stuff might end up as Wii U DLC.

Re: Nintendo Shows Off 2D Gameplay Footage From Sonic Forces
Definitely grabbing both. I've been waiting for a new "boost" style game since Generations itself.
Re: New Splatoon, Legend of Zelda and Super Smash Bros. amiibo Announced
I'll finally be able to complete my Smash collection.
And claim the rest of the clothes in Breath of the Wild.
Re: Guide: How To Farm Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's Star Fragments, And What You Can Do With Them
Well, this is considerably better than just getting lucky. Still, this is gonna take a while - I've got all the amiibo clothes so far.
Re: Reminder: Fire Emblem My Nintendo Rewards Arrive in North America, Metroid in Europe
@Joeynator3000: Playing Lego City Undercover on my Switch. Other than that not much else. It's raining pretty good out.
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd March (North America)
I was kinda hoping to update Smash 64 on my Wii U. Ah well.
Re: New Kid Icarus Awards Have Shown Up on My Nintendo in North America
Been five years already...
I played a lot of Uprising. Put over 350 hours into it.
Re: Random: What Happens When A Guardian And Stone Talus Upset Each Other In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild?
@liljmoore @Smegmapoo69
OK, I'm legitimately terrified/thrilled to hear this. Does the Master Sword at least put a dent into it?
Re: Random: What Happens When A Guardian And Stone Talus Upset Each Other In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild?
@Smegmapoo69: Wait there's one worse than the red
Re: Reminder: Corrin amiibo is Still Coming, Yet the Wait Continues for Bayonetta and Cloud
Just need Cloud and Corrin and my set's complete. Got every other Smash character, including Famicom R.O.B. and Gold Megaman

I'm really looking forward to this. I love the boost gameplay from Unleashed and Generations. The sense of speed is exhilarating. I also see Red Star Rings are making a return.
Re: Sonic Mania Developer Clarifies Details About the Switch Port's Launch
I have the collector's edition preordered for Steam. That being said, I'm still snagging this for my Switch to have a portable version.
Re: Nintendo Confirms LAN Play, 'Renegade Roundup' and More for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
This looks really good. But I'm content with my Wii U version. Unless a discount comes down the road, then I'll be inclined to snag it for my Switch.
Re: Nintendo Download: 9th March (North America)
I might grab Blaster Master Zero once I get some cash. I might also try Bomberman 64.
Re: Don't Buy Another Switch Dock Just Yet
I must be another one of the lucky ones... never had an issue with docking, scratches, or connections. Only issue I've really had was putting a screen protector on - still haven't gotten a clean attachment.
Re: You Can Now Use Your Switch Joy-Cons On Your NES Classic Mini
Eh, I think I'll pass. I'm good with the NES controller that came with my NES Mini.
Re: Review: Mario Sports Superstars (3DS)
I was intrigued by this title, especially for baseball. But oh well. I have quite a few dozen 3DS games to work on, as well as a shiny new console.
Re: Guide: How To Cook Like A Pro In The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
@Skunkfish: You know, I didn't even think of that. And I have more than enough space with my micro SD card. Thanks for the tip!
Re: Video: Zelda: Breath of the Wild Given More Framerate 'Stress Tests' on Wii U and Switch
I got this for my Switch. Framerate drops are there, but they don't bother me too much. I'm having a lot of fun exploring this massive world.

Re: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero Version 1.01 Goes Live in North America on Thursday
I backed the game originally. Managed to get all but two achievements on Steam. I'll have to do a couple more playthroughs - one for speed running and the other to tackle this difficulty.
Re: Guide: How To Get The Master Sword In The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
Good thing you guys posted this. I thought the Master Sword would've played a bigger part in the story once the four beasts were in control.
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch Dock Scratching Your Screen? Try This DIY Fix
I haven't had any scratch problems yet. I've been sparingly using the touch screen too.
Re: Guide: How To Access the Nintendo Switch eShop For Multiple Regions
Thanks for posting this. Made one for myself just in case.
Re: Nintendo Provides Official Advice for Switch Joy-Con Connection Issues
I've been doing fine with mine - even have my iPad and iPhone on at the same time with no issue. Now that might change if I decide to hook up to a bigger TV or use my laptop. Guess I'll find out.
Re: Rumour: New Zelda Series amiibo Might Be On The Way
In a heartbeat. Especially for Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess
Re: Japanese Nintendo Switch Owners Will Be Playing Neo Geo Games Next Month
@OorWullie Due to previous experiences I have jumped the gun on the assumption of this date of release. Thanks for the info.
Re: Japanese Nintendo Switch Owners Will Be Playing Neo Geo Games Next Month
What a surprise.
"We may not be waiting that long"
What are we kidding? Japan's going to get this stuff right away and we'll have to wait 6-8 months.
Re: Virtual Console Will Not Be Ready For Nintendo Switch Launch
Well, I like the prospect of sharing my account money between systems.
As for Virtual Console, all I can say is I'm glad I have a nice backlog on both my 3DS and Wii U.
Re: Bethesda's Todd Howard "Can't Say" If Skyrim on Switch is the Special Edition
Eh, doesn't bug me either way. It's Skyrim in portable form, and I'm good with that. I'll be snagging it in August.
Now if Fallout 4 and Doom make the cut, that'll be day one purchases right there.
Re: Wonder What Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's New amiibo Do? Wonder No Longer
I am so glad I have these figures preordered.
Next weekend's gonna be a blast!
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd February (North America)
All these N64 titles and still not the one I need to import from the Wii Menu.
Where is Super Smash Bros. 64?
Re: There Won't Be a New Skylanders Game in 2017
@JohnnyC: Lego Dimensions is fun, but their customer service stinks. I tried to get a new toy tag since one from a set I bought was defective, and they wanted me to jump through 50 million hoops just to get a replacement. I'll enjoy the stuff I have for it now, and maybe grab Supergirl if she's not a permanent exclusive, but that's it. And since Infinity's out, the only other figures I'll be buying is amiibo.
Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks A Web Browser Because It's A "Dedicated Video Game Platform"
What happened to the mindset of suspending a game to check for a hint online?
Re: Tatsumi Kimishima Expects Nintendo Switch To Sell "About As Well" As The Wii
If they'd lower the price of at least the peripherals, they might have a shot
Re: Review: Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World (3DS)
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I love this game. It's the best one since the original Yoshi's Island, and I'm glad I have it showing up at my doorstep on Friday. I'm going to love running through this game again, and all the new features. Especially those stop-motion videos.
Re: Gallery: Micro SD Card Slot Shown Off In Ridiculously Close-Up Nintendo Switch Photos
Just one more month. Already have the system, Breath of the Wild, and the five new amiibo paid off, plus a three-day weekend to boot!
Re: Official Hori Nintendo Switch Micro SD Cards Set a Handy Benchmark
I'll just grab another Sandisk card when I need it - I've had one in my 3DS for a few years, and I can get a discount at work to boot.
Re: New Hack Offers A Full Game Library On Your NES Classic Edition
Considering that these aren't easily replaceable, I wouldn't try it on mine. Only game I really dislike out of the set is Ghosts N' Goblins anyway.
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th January (North America)
@thesilverbrick:
SUPER
SMASH
BROS.!!!!!!
Sorry, had to do it in the style of the title screen.
Re: Video: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's Localised Voice Acting is Pretty Darn Varied
I don't know all the characters involved, but if some variation of Darunia is in it and he's over-the-top, I will be a very happy camper.
Re: Yes, You Can Charge Your Nintendo Switch In Tabletop Mode
So it's essentially like the 3DS stand. I think I'll grab this.
Especially since it has that sweet, sweet stability.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is A 13.4GB Download On Nintendo Switch
@New_Guest: Oh, believe me, I'm not against downloads by any means. I have dozens of games through Steam, my 3DS, and Wii U. But I love me some box artwork, so if I can find it, I'll grab it. Cartridges are pretty portable anyway, so I'll save hard drive space too.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is A 13.4GB Download On Nintendo Switch
@InternetBowser: Amen, brudda. I like getting the carts myself.
Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates
I already have my console and Breath of the Wild paid off.
Definitely downloading Sonic Mania, and I'm snagging Super Mario Odyssey. I'm also leaning towards Minecraft and Skyrim mainly because that's more portable than my laptop. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is up in the air - I'm waiting a bit on the off-chance that the new stuff might end up as Wii U DLC.
Re: Zelda and Bokoblin Added to Breath of the Wild amiibo Range
My wallet's going to run away soon...
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th January (North America)
Might give F-Zero X a try. I was hoping that they'd release Super Smash Bros. - that's the last N64 Wii VC game I imported but didn't get to update.
Re: Activision's Amazing Spider-Man Games Make A Sharp Exit From The Wii U eShop
I have both on-disc. The first was better than the second though.
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December (North America)
Ok, so now I can hope Super Smash Bros. comes next week. That's the last Wii-only N64 game on my console.
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd December (North America)
So now I just need Mario Kart 64 and Super Smash Bros. to upgrade.
