This just makes me worry about the Kinja apocalypse, though. This is the best gaming community I've ever participated in, and I'm sad I found it so late. I'll be devastated if it ceases to exist when The AV Club frankensteins into Gawker.

This is very solid advice, although I doubt I'll be able to wait quite so long. I can probably give it 2 years, though.

Just think of starting again and needing to redo ALL the shrines. I want to play again, but the shrines are a real deterrence right now. I'll come back for the DLC this winter, though.

There are a few QOL improvements. I know there are less of those godforsaken orbs to collect in the beginning, and there's the "trials" dungeon… thing.

Oh man, it would be really neat if I could use my gamecube controller with the switch. Well, I mean, I use it with my Wii already but still. Options!

I'm mainly interested in the Zelda ports, but I'd honestly be just as satisfied if I could play the original Gamecube versions. I know the HD remasters have some quality of life improvements that will be missed by the lucky devils that played them, but I've still only experienced the Gamecube versions.

Yeah. I admit this was in the back of my mind when I got mine in March, and I can't say I regret it. Plus, I was able to secure one of the neat Neon models without any issues. Now I just need to be patient until Winter when there'll be a ton more games I want on it.

Even if they don't port them over in the first year of the Switch's lifespan, I hope we'll see more next year when the console has established itself. By this point, it looks like it's going to be a very successful system. I just hope there aren't inventory issues come the holidays this year.

I found the traditional controls pretty clunky, but I admit I only played a few hours during the test punch. The main issue with motion controls is that moving around the stadium is much less precise, and I can see that being a real hinderance for serious competition.

See how you can respond to the comment I've typed without loading the whole thread again? Can't do that on Kinja, and you can't even see an entire reply unless you load the comment thread.

I really only read the comedy articles, not sports analysis.

That's a fair complaint, even if I don't personally agree with it. I can understand not checking a site when there's not enough content to interest you. That's 99.999 sites for me.

And they're sorted chronologically, not by who replied to who. Unthreaded comments are bad, but it's literally impossible to hold a conversation with more than 2 people.

And heaven help you if your comment takes off. You'll be getting replies (usually saying the exact same thing) for months.

I have bookmark the community with posts sorted by "new", otherwise I have no idea what's happening.

Kinja's even less stable than Disqus and you can't check if on your phone as easily.

It's not like there's anything he can personally do. I get the sense that everyone's hands have been tied since selling their souls to Univision.

"Website operations aren’t really my purview anymore, so I found out about the upcoming Kinja change by reading the same articles online that you guys did. I gather from a 30-second conversation I had with avclub.com executive editor Laura M. Browning earlier today that there is no date set internally yet, and the…
