    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been leaked almost 2 weeks from release

    I tried to play BOTW on my PC years ago and it was too weak to run it. So I bought a WiiU and left 340 hrs in that masterpiece. I still have that same PC, slightly upgraded, so I won't be even trying to play TotK on it, bought an OLED Switch and Pro controller and preordered the game. There goes...

    Hardware Ultimately, how powerful is the Switch GPU?

    Not sure if you're 12, joking or just dumb.

    Hardware When will you get a Switch?

    I have a Wii and will sell it to buy a WiiU because I can play Bayonetta 2, Zelda BotW and MK8 on it. Also there is almost complete Nintendo library available for WiiU, so my choice is obvious. Also I have 3DS so unless I sell it I won't be getting Switch very soon, simply no need to. I wanna...

    Hardware Poll: Your thoughts on the Switch

    I paid about 150€ for old 3DS bundled with one game and that's OK, if I could get Switch with one game for 300€ that would be also OK, but here in my 3rd world country console costs like 370€ and that's just too much. I got PS4 1TB bundled with one game for that amount of bills so I'll wait...

    Gaming skyward sword hd would be perfect with the joycons

    SS is my least favorite Zelda game, just too much focus on motion controls and not so epic as previous titles. It's probably a good idea to remaster it for the Switch, the more the merrier, but I finished it and have no will to play it again. For those of you who didn't, I do hope Nintendo makes...

    Feed my curiosity...

    I operate production in fertilizer factory, job is mostly boring but that's good, have plenty of time to surf Internets and to play 3DS. I do work in shifts and I'm kinda underpayed but at least there is air-conditioning and no-one is bothering me. Could be worse I presume...

    Hardware Should I wait to purchase the Switch?

    I'll get Switch eventually because I want to play Zelda, hopefully it gets more interesting games and maybe emulator so I can enjoy it during night shifts and weekends at work. Still got many games to finish on 3DS and Wii so no hurry for me.

    Hardware Poll: Your thoughts on the Switch

    For $300 you get portable console, home console and two controllers. Now, it could be cheaper, but then again, why would it be if it's selling well?

    Hardware Nintendo Switch has paid online services similar to Xbox Live and Playstation

    I don't play online so no big deal for me but hopefully Nintendo gives something good in return for payment.

    Hardware Controller look very uncomfortable

    Maybe we should compare it to the Pro controller. Reason for switches d-pad type is so you can use it as face buttons in two player games. Compromises, and if you don't like it there is, although overpriced, pro controller. Switch is what it is and you may like it or you don't, you also don't...

    Hardware Poll: Your thoughts on the Switch

    I'll probably get WiiU for Zelda and Mario Kart 8 as well as other titles and homebrew and Switch down the road when I finish all I can on WiiU and 3DS. No hurry for me, Switch looks very interesting but I have too many consoles already some of which I need to sell to make room in my Apartment.

    Hardware Controller look very uncomfortable

    I played REmake and Zero with Wii controller and nunchuk, it was better feeling than GC controller for me, and GC controller is more comfy than dual shock 3 from Sony. Looks can deceive you, they do all the testing after all so you have to try it and see. 3DS (old) is also OK, although it looks...

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
