@BLD I've never heard anyone mention that before, and I always (as in100% of the time) put the Switch in sleep mode with my current game running. Been doing that for since launch now, save for a few restarts. I know Fortnite used to have that issue, but that was a bug within the actual game. This must be rare then since nobody ever talks about it? 🤔
@PanurgeJr While I disagree with most statements made by old Sliggy, I'd say this one comment is pretty valid. All he did was state his opinion on the 30 second restriction. Nothing to get offended about here.
Neon Blue here. I've had it for 36 hours and still no issues when 2,5 metres away. The console is in close proximity to PS4, Wii U and a wireless router.
@Peach64 It's not really bad. It's probably the best available emulation of playing on a CRT TV. The problem is that nobody really wants it to look that true to the original.
@chardir It is. The problem is that people don't want it to look CRT. They only want it to feel like they remember it (ie better than it actually was). It does a great job at emulating a CRT TV, a little too great.
@Lady_rosalina As said by @KH22: "Nintendo owns the pokemon trademarks and characters. They own 33% of the Pokemon company, while also having shares in creatures, another company that owns the Pokemon franchise. They are invested in Niantic and also developed Pokemon go plus accessory. They are pretty much involved in this from the start and it has been stated before that this was one of iwata's ideas."
@CTMike While it might be viewed as free advertising, this is not journalism. This is selling someone else's intellectual property. You make money on ads? Fine. You make money by selling something you don't own? Not that fine.
@abe_hikura Not really. We were told from the start that everything would be released later here than in Japan. It feels more like they're testing it to make sure it's up to speed before releasing it to the other territories.

@BigKing well, the interviewers
Re: Nintendo's Bill Trinen Discusses The Possibility Of Smash Bros. Ultimate Demo And DLC
@BigKing It is as if people expect them to risk their jobs by revealing company secrets.

Re: Nintendo Issues Takedown Notices for Impressive Fan-Made Metroid II Remake, AM2R
If you're giving away someone's game for free you bet they're going to take it down. Especially when they are still selling it via Virtual Console.

By the way, one of the pics' caption is "The Wii U lacked the value and innovation of the Wii U"
