** Official Nintendo Switch Thread - Nintendo Is Back Edition

[J1n]

I noticed that in MK8 you cant pick the CC for multiplayer. it randomly picks between 100, 150 and 200cc and mirror. 100 is too slow, 200 is too fast and needs a new kart setup if you are going to play this mode and a 100 or 150cc kart setup will be horrible on a 200cc race. Would be nice to add the cc option back in.

owned the system for 4 weeks now with just zelda on the console with a few demos, I still loving it as the first day I got it, its super versatile but for real tho, this system needs a good non-casual fps immediately fuarkkk

^no problem with joycon here, when did u get ur console? as Im aware, nintendo fixed the left joycon issue for the new stocks.

got mine bout 4 weeks ago too.

Mario + Rabids RPG info leaked. Game made by Ubisoft, its turn based seems like it'll be really fun to play.

a small corner piece of the tab that moves up and down to detach the joycon from the system has broke off. I noticed I was able to detach the joycon without pressing the release button. It takes a small amount of force and I can still use the system without worries the joycon will just slip out cause it won't.

I'll be sending it back to nintendo for repair though.. I haven't dropped it, I think a tiny bit of the corner tab broke off through detaching since plastic is cheap


I have an extra pair of joycons + pro controller to get be by.



extra of the tab I am talking about (not my pic)

[rocketfish]

anyone having joycon issues?

apparently there is a left joycon issue when playing in wireless mode. Been using the pro controller since i got it and only noticed when trying to multiplayer Mario Kart. gotta send it in to Nintendo for repair.

send it back to nintendo, they will repair it for free.

Reminder to all Switch brahs - ARMS Global Testfire (free) starts tonight

[MrGreenTea]

This ARMS game is weird AF

This ARMS game is weird AF

Me and my brother just played the entire thing till servers went out. Motion controls are awful. Pro controller is the way to go. We both made it to 90 points.

[Tough92]

Waiting for Smash. Hoping for an E3 announcement of a port but losing hope because of things like Arms, Splatoon and now MarioxRabids.
Why the fuk are we getting this goober chit like Arms and Splatoon before the GOAT game.

They should have lead with the old guard (Smash, Kart, Pokemon, Zelda) and THEN came out with the new/offbeat things.

Agreed

I beat Zelda already and I'm bored of Mario kart now I have nothing todo


And servers are down for arms so I didn't even get to try it

After being skeptical on release and then playing at a friends house for a few hours I decided to buy a Switch once they came back in stock locally.

Welcome me *******s

welcome *******, anyone else digging the ARM global test punch? i like it, it has a learning curve and the different modes are really fun, thinking of getting it instead of mario kart but im not too sure about the longevity.

I liked it when playing with a friend. Definitely on my radar.

Playing some MK8D at work right now. Dem feels

Had the switch since release and just found the thread!

Awesome console and got me back into gaming after being out of it for about 2 years.

So far got Zelda, MK8, Shovel Knight and NBA Playgrounds. All games are awesome imo.

Also the Arms demo was also badass but didn't get to try it out this past weekend so don't know about the new features that they showed.

[Bladebruh]

Pokemon Direct tomorrow boyos. Hopefully they announce a Pokemon title for the Switch. It'll be harder for people to find one if they announce a new pokemon game.

[Bobgnarley]

The switch has been difficult to find around here. I ended up buying the Zelda bundle off of gamestops website, which will ship on the 16th. Amazon had the same price with no bundle and most places wanted to charge around $100 for shipping. nope.jpg

[UnderwearBandit]

Anyone know the status of the Switch in terms of build numbers and such? Have the consoles undergone any changes in the past few months to make the console function better in any way?

I'm asking because there was also a lot of talk about PS4 build numbers and how some later batches were a little better in terms of overall performance.

The only thing different is the newer consoles you will find out there in retail stores (not the overpriced ones that were purchased at launch and people trying to make big profit off of)

is the left joycon signal strength is fixed, if you end up with a one of the older ones you the left joycon should be sent in for fixing if it is an issue for you (free repair including shipping both ways)

I checked brickseek.com almost every day. Finally showed up that my local walmart had 3 greys and 5 neons. Showed up and only had 1 neon. Snatched it real quick. Wouldve recommended to check that site every so often

[Rozer2]

Have mine preordered.

yea.. rocket league at only $19.99, great that they still keep the price low.. (PC can be had for about $10-12 on third party key reseller sites)

I bought it for xbox at 20 when it came out then for like 6 bucks on pc. Both platforms I dont play just because I have other chit in my backlog. I have down time at work where I can bust out RL and go ham. Reasons I love my switch.

Skipping ARMS, but did anyone pick up today?

I'm going with SPlatoon instead. I don't need a mic either. Voice chat won't work with strangers in random match making has been confirmed and I don't have enough buddies on Switch to have a squad to talk with so. Guess I'm going it solo with randoms who'll be voiceless.

Arms was delivered to my work today. I'm going in tomorrow to grab it. If it plays well with the Joy-cons I'll buy another set for local multiplayer. (Currently have Pro Controller and one set of JC)

The voice/chat system is my BIGGEST gripe with Nintendo. Sick of kids ruining my fun in life. "WHO WILL THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!?!!?!"

Put a parental control in game if you don't want your kids hearing voice chat/chatting with others.

Ill be skipping it for right now. May pick it up in the future.

I just got my switch a couple weeks ago so I still have a lot of time in Zelda left.
