I went into the store, asked for a working Switch and exchanged cash for it. That was the extent of the trade.

@mazzel
The only information I see displayed around here relate to consumer rights (mostly the reasons for which the consumer may get a refund).

I do agree with the majority of the rest (though I think that piracy of games older than ten years is fair game).

"How did you two get so many likes? Literally no one asked you two"

Actually if you look at the bottom of the article you will see:
"Do you play Fortnite? How have you found the game in recent times? Is it better or worse? Share your own thoughts in the comments below."
So, in fact, yes they were asked. @Anti-Matter wasn't wrong, there are better games out there (Unreal Tournament for one).

Re: It's Official: The Super Mario LEGO Sets Are Launching This August

@Kineas
And as always, people giving a product a free pass because it has the Nintendo label slapped on it. Considering that in the past when LEGO have tried to deviate from the norm they have almost always failed badly, the success of this product will certainly be questionable.

As it is, lots of speciality pieces that have limited to no use outside these specific sets it certainly goes against the ethos that LEGO have built for themselves. Yes, give me minifigures, rather than this. Start with the familiar rather than dive straight into an alienating idea.

Re: Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Might Be Released On Switch Next Week

Actually it should probably be called dark forces 4, here's the quadrilogy:
Star Wars: Dark Forces
Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II
Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy

If we want to take their naming to ridiculous extremes it should probably be "Star Wars Jedi Knight III: Jedi Outcast II: Jedi Academy: Dark Forces IV." a

Jedi Academy features a different main character, but the MC for the previous three games has a large supporting role which is probably why it isn't called JK3
