The Nintendo Switch Thread! - Deadly Premonition 2: Blessing in Disguise 7/10 - Paper Mario: The Origami King 7/17

So anyone here experience any of the reported problems with their Switch?

The left joycon desync is a real problem. Im probably going to ask my dad to help me with sottering a wire in the controller

No. But I have a pro controller so the joycon thing wouldn’t be evident to me anyway.

No issues yet

Yeah, I can’t fucking find one for sale anywhere

No problems here so far.

Anyone else pick up Waku Waku 7?

Finding it pretty fun and a nice thing to bring to my locals for a change of pace from the usual suspects.

I haven’t had a single issue with my Switch. Haven’t had my left Joy con desync, no screen scratches or freak outs. Pretty smooth sailing.

I also haven’t been playing it that much either and when I have played it I’ve been using the pro controller

Oh, nice the eShop updated with those Neo Geo games on the Japanese shop.

Nice, being able to buy shit while not shutting down your game is nice too.

the joycon desyncing could be software related, so a patch make fix it

This looks great for the folks who missed out on MK8 because of the Wii U. Stacked with tons of features. Will be a day 1 purchase for me. Need more party shit on this systems.

When’s a real Mario party?

I downloaded Blaster Master Zero. It doesn’t support the Pro controller yet, but the Joycon stick is actually not bad.

Damn games dropping without pro controller support.

I might get Shock Troopers soon… it’s cheap, sure… but one issue I see with it from the vids I’m watching… the character seems to move just a bit slower than I expected. Eh, whatever it’s a small enough nitpick that I can overlook that… yeah I’ll get that next. This kind of game really takes me back to those glorious days of the typical '90s arcade experiences on a Saturday.

*another minor nitpick about Switch in general-- I know it’s cool to hate the idea of achievements and trophies but gaming without such a thing at this point feels like “something is missing here…”. I have no shame in “admitting” I love that shit. At least give me some online and friend-list-relevant leaderboards.

and a thing about Metal Slug that irks me—if I recall… you cannot shoot diagonally in that series…at least I think that’s still the case… I hope I’m wrong on that because that shit is LAME. In a run-n-gun shootemup game… you only let me shoot up, down, left or right? Mannnnn GET the fuck out of here with that :tdown:

edit—oh could you imagine though… if Capcom somehow got whatever legal/trademark nonsense worked out so they could port the arcade side-scrolling ALIENS vs. PREDATOR on this?! Holy shit I would pass out at just the announcement of such a thing :wow: I love that game so damn much…

Anyone buy the Switch just for USF2?

Ask that again when the game actually comes out.

I’m honestly fine with the lack of achievements. that shit is such a gimmick and notifications during games really really bothers me.

So turn the notifications off.

smh.

Trophies/achievements are gimmicks, but so is everything nintendo does, so whats the difference?

A gimmick doesn’t mean a negative anyway.
