The save game feature isn't working for me at all on the demo version - anyone else having this issue?? if I save in the demo and exit to main menu, my progress is totally gone. Isn't the save feature supposed to work so it can later be transferred to the full game?
A fantastic direct! So excited to play remastered Dark Souls on my Switch! The first one is the only I never finished. Also def going to double-dip on Tropical Freeze, grab The World Ends With You (never owned it on DS), and Ys VIII.
"DOOM makes it clear from the outset that you aren't the prey, you're the predator. Encounters with foes never come in ones and twos, but in tens of enemies. If you aren't careful, they'll make short work of you."
Am I missing something? The first sentence seems to have gotten predator/prey backwards.
I'm so much more excited for this than I even was for BotW! Super Mario 64 is like half of my childhood (the other half being OoT) and I can't wait to get back to that style of Mario game! It's preloading on my Switch right now....HYYYYYYYYYPE
Engineering manager: "Ok, let's get to work on this port. Lots and lots of people would really love to see Sunshine on the Switch."
Junior engineer: "But sir, this one dude on the internet with a Tina Fey avatar said there's this one puzzle that won't work perfectly with the Switch controls."
Engineering manager: "WHAT? Why didn't we realize that before?! One puzzle from the entire game won't convey the exact same experience as it did back then?? This whole project is pointless! Scrap it!"
If I'm late to the 3DS game and just want to get a used one to play the new Metroid and this, should I get a "New" Nintendo 3DS? Any idea if the experience is different for games like this?
Solution: make it not worth eBay scalpers' time and money.
How?
It's common knowledge that eBay always sides with buyers when cases are opened. Order one on eBay, damage it somehow, then take a picture and claim that it arrived that way. eBay will side with you and let you ship it back to the scalper for a refund. Scalper loses their money and has nothing to sell.
this is so frustrating. I knew this was going to be difficult and felt like I had prepared myself well (signed up for alerts at several retailers, made sure all emails alerted me on my phone, etc). I didn't get alerts from Best Buy or Amazon or Walmart, and despite immediately going to the Gamestop site after getting the alert they were already gone.
@impurekind Pretty simple actually. The people who come on threads like this and talk about legal matters generally 1) enjoy Nintendo IP and Nintendo's rights to its IP, and 2) have real jobs and know what it's like to produce something in exchange for money. On the other side we have the people who produce nothing, are either too young or too lazy to have real jobs, and think that everything should be given to them for free.
Please stop using "Joy-Cons." The plural of "Joy-Con" is "Joy-Con." This isn't difficult. No one goes around saying "I caught some Pokemons yesterday!"

Re: Feature: Killer Apps We Really Want To See On Nintendo Switch
I've owned Switch from Day One and have never once thought "I wish this had Netflix."
I realize others have different needs and opinions, but this is mine and adding Netflix is not what I want Nintendo devs wasting (imho) their time on.
