Equating WWII with Charlottesville is laughable and blindly ignoring important details of the situation. The United States had LEGALLY gone to war. So the men/women fighting against the Nazi’s in WWII had the full backing of the United States to be there.

And why wouldn’t he be upset? He was there to talk about a COMPLETELY different topic, but as usual, the media refused to allow him to do that. I think a bit of frustration toward the press should be expected at that point.

If the graphics of the game are the ONLY reason it is the ‘bleeding edge’ of AAA gaming, then sure...the Switch will miss out. But luckily, 99% of games are about the GAMEPLAY not the graphics. I’m perfectly content to play slightly less graphically impressive games if it means I get actual great gameplay and story…

I’d be interested to know how many of these bent consoles have seen what I would refer to as extremely extended play sessions. In other words, the Switch seems to be designed around about a 3 hour play session (in handheld). If this is happening primarily to consoles with lots of docked playtime, were a lot of those…

I find that the need to aim in the vertical direction is actually pretty rare in Splatoon. There’s only a couple of levels where a sniper will get above you frequently, causing you to need to aim way up. Generally though, with the sensitivity set high enough, I can aim up and down without any issues.

Maybe it’s just because our WiFi base is less than 5 feet away from the Switch. Maybe we have great internet speed or something? I dunno. I think we’ve had maybe 1 time where that error message popped up on us. We’ve had 2-3 issues where we’re trying to join the lobby to start with and we got the ‘could not connect to…

The hardware shortage isn’t something Nintendo can just “do something” about. It’s been well documented at this point that there are shortages farther up the manufacturing chain, making it difficult for Nintendo to make any more consoles than they current are. They already upped their production from their original…

Same! I saw it last night, but didn’t click until just now that it would be the same person. Very cool. I’d rather spend my time actually playing the game, but I do love the fact that the game offers this for people who want it. :)

I’ve been playing almost exclusive in hand-held mode, and a ton of that time was online. Have had no issues. Now granted, I’m sitting in the same room as my Router, but we’ve had two Switches connected at once, and only had 1 disconnect happen in probably close to a 100 games now.

Absolutely download the app! The gear offerings alone are worth it, as I’ve seen far more 3- and 4-slot gear on the app, than I have in the actual in-game stores.

I didn’t think it was that tough at all. Seemed pretty aparent right away that the spinning parts would kill you. I saw a pocket I could drop into and went down there to look around. As soon as I faced the turbines, my reticle went from white to red. Blew it up, move to the next pocket.

I’m not being a shill. I’m being realistic. I’m also recognizing that LOTS of things with this console have been sub-par at first reveal, and Nintendo has been making fairly quick strides to address the issues. I think it’s good that everyone is being vocal about this. I fully intend to submit my own feedback to…

I’m seeing all of this so far as just beta. The whole ‘soft-launch’ thing of this console has been very skeletal, and Nintendo issues updates and such to fix it later. Over and over again we are seeing that they decided to push out the console early to get all the fanboi demand out of the way before holidays, get a…

Wow, the snark is strong with this post.

I’ve been waiting these last two weeks to start a Master Mode playthrough until we could track down a 2nd Switch (need two for Splatoon with the wife!). FINALLY succeeded today, so now I’m super excited to dive in to the Plateau again. The Master Trials were awesome, and gave me a whole new appreciation of the game.…

Walked into a Gamestop on my lunch break today. They had 4 consoles just sitting there on the counter. Supply is finally starting to catch up. And it’s no different than any other console has been in its first months. Calm yourself.

Came here to comment about using an older save file...

Argh....trying to add to my cart, but keep getting an error message. Says to go back to the listing, and make sure you’ve selected a seller still offering it. Go back to the page, still shows $299 for Prime members. Rinse, repeat. :(

I was including the price of the console + the price of the game. :)

I dunno. Every COD looks like the same thing with a “fresh coat of paint on it” to me. People seem way too kind to that series, IMO.
