I believe it's the same day as 1-3 get released, the 27th. I think this is the first time 1-3 have been released in NA beyond the original NES releases too. If you like Old School RPGs, I loved Dragon Warrior 3 as a kid and I hear it actually holds up into modern times.

Not gonna lie I'm still kind of salty that the PS4/PC versions of DQ11 aren't getting the extra stuff. I'm like 2/3 of the way through my play through and been meaning to go back but ugh, all the extras make it hard to want to go back.

There is an option for PC: Steam Community :: Guide :: Dragon Quest XI Orchestral Overhaul Mod
Apparently part of the problem is that the composer is a dick and didn't want to proper music in game because it would eat in to his revenue from live shows.

never trust 3rd party controllers unless its hori, and even then they only sell the left side joycon, no wireless (for the better stick)
pro controller does feel the best, if the pro controller is a 10/10, the joy cons in a comfort grip (that thing you got for free) is a 6/10

i play with a pro controller, its great although if you play a lot of ps4/xb1 it kinda fucks you up that A and B are basically swapped
if you play a lot of handheld people are raving about these

8bitdo are excellent too, especially the SN30 Pro+ which is probably the best alternative to the official Switch Pro controller. Personally I think it's better than the Switch Pro, since it has the correct stick/d-pad layout, analog triggers for whenever you want to use it on other platforms, and Windows software that lets you customize practically everything about it (which is saved to the controller itself so your customizations carry over to the Switch). It's only $50 too. The only things it can't do are wake up the Switch from sleep or read NFC--neither of which any 3rd party controller is allowed to do afaik--so if you actually use Amiibos for some strange reason you'll need to use the joycons temporarily for that.
P.S. Get the "G classic" version, it has the best d-pad.
Doesn't really matter what controller you use, just playing Nintendo anything will fuck up your muscle memory on what button does what.
Got mine on Monday, they're every bit as good as people say. Seems like there's a pretty severe supply shortage now though.

I really like the Nintendo Pro Controllers. Yeah the button layout (usually for the confirm button) will get you mixedup compared to PS4, but I find they are comfy and the battery life on them is pretty damn good. They are a bit pricey but I haven't regretted getting them. If you are going to do any serious gaming on the Switch I think its a pretty good investment. I find the joycons to be rather uncomfortable to hold for extended periods of time.

my wiiu is collecting dust, i think i'll hack it and make it a super emulator, only bought it for xenoblade chronicles X and even then it was for the wife, and even then the wife just played witcher 3 and said "you don't expect me to go back to ghetto gfx after playing witcher3"?

yea, we played unravel 2player w/ the joycons shit. my wife didn't know the switch can have the joy cons transformer into 2 player mode. but after 5minutes my hands hurt and after she called me a wimp, she even said her hands hurt and she's a tiny asian girl.

The 8bitdo controller can change the button mapping if you want, but the problem is that it's only the backwards-ass Japan way when you need to do OK/Cancel type stuff. Normal game controls work as you'd expect them to. Sony knows that people in the west use X for OK and O for cancel and changes their buttons accordingly; Nintendo just doesn't give a fuck.
