@DRAGONBALLVINTAGE I don't have a Switch, but if it's anything like the 3DS, it has a "Currently Playing" thing when you're online. If Nintendo sees that the game is being played early, they might decide to ban him from playing online. They've done it with 3DS games before. One of the sets of Pokemon games got leaked early and released on a ROM site, and they started banning people with the mindset that they must have downloaded a digital copy that was leaked, so they should get banned for piracy.

French companies in the country used to break dates all the time. I remember I bought Pokémon Gold at Carrefour one day earlier. Fnac stores also did this. Sounds great but isn't. Other national stores that respected the dates end up losing tons of money, every big launch. They also for some reason had plenty of stock when others didn't.

I'm just waiting for Friday like everybody else. Because in Sweden we got a general importer that probably ships the games today. So they will first have them tomorrow or on friday.

@pustal then it means they won the sales game, I mean, they got the money instead of their competitors, it is great but... it is great, the customer is happy, the french chain pockets are full, they did good business.

Yes, I bought it early, but I'm not gonna risk a ban by playing it early.

I used to love Kirby games. Been a long time, glad to see he’s still around and viable.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
