@Jack_Goetz Captain Toad Treasure Tracker has been released for Wii U, 3DS & Switch (though I think the 3DS & Switch versions released at the same time)
@1UP_MARIO actually it's less now as they lowered the price from £49.99 to £45.99. so anyone who ordered it at £39.99 using the 20% off code can now contact Currys to ask for the difference back, or to cancel your order, then reorder at the new price £36.79 using the code "DONKEY20" - there's 2 listings: one including the themed cleaning cloth, one without.
@FreakAxident i just don't think you've thought it through. the side piece which sticks out of the joy-con will insert into a slot on the side of the console (have you seen the previous leaked image of the side of the console ?). given the depth of the slot, this will provide very substantial stability, it will be very rigid. the magnets will keep it attached, and the shape of the insert & slot will keep it rigid. that's it
@FreakAxident if you look at the top and bottom of the edge you can see a round shape which could be the magnets, the round shape at the top has a smaller circle inside which could push the top of the joy-con away from the console enough to allow the joy-con to be detached 🧐 i can't imagine nintendo deciding to go with magnetic connection only for it to require additional locking as well. i've been hoping the release button may also be usable as an additional trigger button when using the individual joy-con held horizontally 🙂
i don't understand everyone banging on about OLED screens. i personally did not like the oversaturated vibrant look of the Switch OLED Model (with the 'vibrant mode' [or however it's named] enabled [as it is by default]). there is absolutely nothing wrong with the regular Switch model screen, my launch model Switch is the one i prefer to use over the Lite and the OLED model.
also, everyone seems to have completely forgotten that Sharp announced years ago that they would be supplying their IGZO displays for an upcoming Nintendo console 🧐 granted, this announcement happened years ago, at a time when Nintendo were likely planning Switch Pro (which got cancelled), but it's likely they would be used now in the new console. IGZO displays have far superior power efficiency, along with other beneficial features.
@Ninetaled i saw a separate video all about that video he did, so i know about it. and while i was very disappointed to hear about it, and at the time i actually decided i wouldn't watch any of his videos anymore, i am so glad i didn't stick to that, and the fact it was deleted says a lot.
but anything else he has done has no effect on how incredibly insightful and eye-opening this "Nintendo v. Palworld" video is
i'm assuming this chart is including the console pack-in bundle pre-installed [digital] games ? (Animal Crossing, Switch Sports, Mario Wonder, Mario Kart)
@NintendoLife Switch Lite Hyrule Edition actually comes with 12 months NSO + Expansion Pack, which is ~double the value of standard NSO 🧐
also you can't have checked your prices as it has been £199.95 from The Game Collection for around a week now (after being reduced to £184.95 for a short time)
i feel the Switch Lite Aloha Editions are definitely worth mentioning too as they also now include 12 months NSO, like the regular Switch and Switch OLED bundles, in addition to including Animal Crossing New Horizons 💪
So I’m guessing there was never any patches for Knight to at least make it more playable?
there were patches. i'm not sure how much difference they made. i bought the physical release for a very good price a couple months back, i loved Asylum on 360 so much 😍 i only really bought it for the first game. for anyone interested: when you insert the cartridge all 3 separate game tiles pop up, but only Asylum is playable. City & Knight require download. as the downloads are associated with the cartridge [rather than being via a single-use download code] resale is possible, as they can be downloaded & redownloaded as long as that remains available via servers
@NintendoLife "yes, we're pretty sure this is a fake cartridge, [...]. But so what?" ??? excuse me ? "so what?" ? are counterfeit games a joke to you ? you don't see counterfeit Nintendo products as a problem ?! 😮 that is a shocking view IMO
there is absolutely nothing honourable or charming about someone paying money for a counterfeit pokemon game, deciding to make a long tiktok video about "reuniting it with its owner" ??? 🤔 (i mean WTH ? it's literally a worthless counterfeit game) 🤔 then flying from England to Japan 🤔 ??? and pointlessly going to 3 pokemon shops 🤡
all just for the sake of making the video 🤦
tiktok video culture is an utter joke 👏 well done everyone who consumes tiktok videos 👏👏👏 well done indeed
@Samalik 20 bucks for a year ? an entire year ?? uhhhh i'm pretty sure you would be hard-pressed to find that kind of value anywhere else 😂 that's literally $1.67 per month . . .
not to mention Family Membership $35 per year for 8 accounts = $4.38 per account per year . . . that's almost 5× less than Individual Membership. it's just silly money
@Vyacheslav333 can continue playing NSO games without internet for a week. then all it needs is just a momentary internet check, and that's it again for a week.
do what you want to do, when you want to do it. there's no telling you'll still want to do it in future 😇
@Vyacheslav333 not that $50 is very expensive for a whole year ! ? you can share the cost with others in a family group for just $10 each [split 8 ways] 🥜🥜 laughably cheap
@NintendoLife shopto & cdkeys have fantastic price on NSO+ Family membership ! ~ £45 ! 🥳 that's 25% off the Nintendo price ! 🤩 and sharing the cost of that between 8 people 🤑 that's silly money 🥜 😂
yes i thought the original report seemed strange, as i recall hearing not long ago that Nintendo isn't happy having this type of shareholder . . . certainly wouldn't want them increasing their stake ! 😵
