Nintendo Switch

i havent had any issues yet. i dont mind the boarding process and how easy it is to check luggage/change flights without fees or paying for "insurance"

i had a vita a few years ago but it never took off with games unfortunately.

 

well i can say im impressed with the switch so far. graphics are great, i love the large screen for handheld, and battery life is decent.

only played a little zelda so far but ill try out skyrim in the next day or two.

just waiting on a pair of earbuds to arrive since my last ones broke. tried headphones but my ears get too hot.

So expensive though.

 

the small one isnt bad at just above a game price. not sure if ill get one yet though, the switch seems to do fine for the airport travel im doing now

its not a bad investment if you use them for other stuff on the regular either

 

Ive already got a smaller battery pack that was like 15 bucks. Get a USB to Type-C cable and itll charge it. It just wont be the fast charging or whatever. But like ya say its working just fine for the airport for me. Plus most planes seem to have usb/120v charging at the seats these days

 

Well Nintendo's E3 was pretty meh...unless you are excited for Super Smash Bro's that is. Half the conference was on that and the rest was just a fast run through of stuff. No update on Metroid

 

interesting to hear smash will have all previous characters

 

"Metroid Prime 4 (Working Title) returns to the First Person Adventure roots of the original Metroid Prime game..."

I love Metroid, but they lost me at 'First Person'

 

I guess. Im not a Smash guy so it was a long, pretty boring segment.

I was hoping for something. I dont agree with Nintendo basically saying we purposely left it out cause its not coming out till at least Q2 2019. Same with Core Pokemon RPG. Basically said we didnt want to even show a teaser cause its so far out.

 

Mario Tennis Aces is quite fun so far. Only been playing the adventure mode so far. But its a nice mix of challenges, puzzles, and more or less regular tennis matches

 

beat zelda finally. after finding 60 some shrines and the master sword i was over it. fought ganon which there doesnt seem to be much point to unless you wanted master mode. fun for a while but then i started losing interest fast

 

Thats how i felt. Still fun but got a bit "grindy"

 

the shrines definitely are after you find the easy one.

didnt care for the weapons breaking, i would have rather had fewer in the game personally. having different armors and upgrading them was cool though.

 

One of my Joy-Cons started moving the characters on its own. I called for repair just to see what they would say, because I knew it was out of warranty. They wanted $30 to fix it, plus $20 shipping. A new one costs $49, so I told them it makes no sense to get it repaired when I could get a new one for less. He said, well, they really want to make sure they have all the bugs out, so they would like to fix it, and offered me free shipping both ways. So I said that sounds fair. I shipped it out Monday, they got it Tuesday, told me it was repaired and shipped back Wednesday, and it's scheduled for delivery tomorrow, Thursday. Now THAT is good service!

PS: Zelda rocks and you all are idiots.

 

how long is the warranty? my left joycon seems to move my character sometimes even after letting go.

p.s. it was good just boring now

 

The warranty is one year on the original, if I understand their website correctly. But for some reason it is 90 days if you buy a new replacement, and 100 days on a repaired one. The guy was trying to sell me on repairing over replacing with that extra 10 days.

 

thanks. maybe ill wait till im not using it a bit then get it taken care of

 

Did a thing. I'm excited

 

i think i've got almost 100 hours in Zelda. it's amazing, there's always shit to do.

Crash Bandicoot comes out today though, and i'm excited for that.
