Instead of playing his Switch my son always wants to go to Gamestop and play whatever platformer they have on the demo 3ds. Nothing even on the horizon like any of the Yoshi, Mario, etc platformers is there? How can a Nintendo platform not have a ton of these remotely close to launch?

That can be said if every single console for the past decade. It's already doing much better than the WiiU in that aspect. It actually got a new Zelda before end of life

Been on vacation all week. Switch has been awesome during the downtimes between doing things. Disgaea 5, Mario kart, zero, and Zelda. Good times. Haven't had any issues playing the tactics rpg or zero while portable. Mario kart I can usually get a couple circuits in before my hands are uncomfortable.

Still worth my money imo.

It's got the new Shovelknight expansion (plus full past games if you never played those) - great retro platformer. Might be on the harder spectrum for a kid though if he's used to Yoshi/Kirby.

I would kill to be a fly on the wall in the conference room when these retarded decisions are being made. It just boggles the mind.

I can't even begin to imagine who thought this was a good idea...

More likely than not they KNOW its a terrible idea, but it was the least terrible idea they could come up with to implement such a fundamental core element that somehow got overlooked in the broader development cycle.

So is this what Nintendo paid that big company for ?(to do the online stuff). or I'm guessing this is actually Nintendo's endgame and the company was only brought in too build the systems..

So I guess it's a race between which battery will die first: your cell phone or your Switch.

Edit: the notification bar on the cell phone in that picture is triggering me.

What a travesty. Imagine if nintendo actually had a decent online service. Now imagine the NES/SNES mini could connect to it and it would give you those games on your nintendo account to play VC on switch.

Now imagine you could go in some type of lobby for those games and play them online (VC xplay with minis) with voice chat. It is not even hard to do. I remember playing netplay on zsnes like 10 years ago.

Thanks nintendo.

We need some version of this for the development of the app (just in reverse as the ideal app is stripped down to what we have now)



Pentagon Wars btw, the whole movie is on Youtube.
