    Gaming Upcoming Switch Games You're Looking Forward To

    There are quite a few games I purchased through the eShop that I have yet to go through, so I should finish at least a couple of those before I start making purchases. I'm more than willing to make concessions for The Legend of Zelda games, however. Here's what I'm excited for: The Legend of...

    Gaming Local LAN play

    It's been over a week, so I imagine you already got your answer from trying or from somewhere on the Internet, but I'll give your thread a reply anyway. It should be possible to play the game through local wireless, but I believe the issue you're facing stems from the fact you cannot play an...

    Switch and Xbox versions of Fall Guys delayed

    See, that's precisely it: that's not the case for Fall Guys. With Among Us you had the option to play it on Steam, but also on your smartphone, the latter being entirely for free. Once it made its way to platforms like the Nintendo Switch, it cost money much like the PC version of the game, but...

    Gaming What is your favorite game right now?

    It's probably still Tetris 99. I've heard some people complain about the game's controls or the way it works, but from the very beginning I've found it a pleasant experience. I've only had the Switch since January this year, and Tetris 99 is my most played title at "135 hours or more" of...

    Gaming Games you would like to see on Switch

    After watching some videos of Wave Race 64 the nostalgia made me hope for a new game in the series being brought to the Switch, but that's very unlikely. I have to say I am excited about Pokémon remakes and perhaps more The Legend of Zelda ones. Considering the fact it took Nintendo way too long...

    Comment by 'spoonm' in 'I'm fucking pissed now!'

    I don't know if this is the case for the O2DS, but I needed to take apart a N3DSXL to fix the right shoulder button and saw that the screw I was trying to open was getting stripped by the screwdriver. I stopped immediately and looked up if that was a thing, and found out that Nintendo doesn't...

    Gaming Is there any website or service to track the price of Switch eShop games?

    Not exactly what you want, but you can see prices in all versions of the Switch eShop on this site. It will rank them by price in each country and you can have it show prices in any currency listed on the site for ease of use. No graphs or notifications, though. You could maybe write a script to...

    Gaming [Essentials] Nintendo Switch Retail/Digital Games

    I don't think Breath of the Wild needs any more votes, so I'm not going to mention that masterpiece. I expect I'll be back to vote for Breath of the Wild 2 by the end of the year, though. Also, I must say of these I don't own Link's Awakening or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe yet, but have seen gameplay of...

    Gaming Another leak shows a Switch 2 maybe coming in Jan 2021 along with BOTW 2

    I commented this on another speculation thread, but while a home console with that kind of performance is totally possible (think PS4 Pro, PS5, XBOX Series X, etc.) it is unlikely Nvidia has been working on a Tegra X2 successor with that kind of horsepower. Going another route would mean...

    Hardware Buying used Wii U

    MBR and GPT are two types of partition tables, they're not a property of the hardware itself but of how the disk is partitioned (if it is). I'd bet that every SD card or other removable block device today that is sold already containing a filesystem in a single partition is using MBR, but even...

    What ringtone do you use?

    Like some others I always have my phone on silent mode. The problem with that is that unless I'm perfectly still I don't really notice the phone vibrating in my pocket, so I usually miss the few calls I get, most of which are for telemarketing anyways. The only real use I have for my phone is as...

    Homebrew RELEASE NX-VVVVVV - Port of VVVVVV for the Nintendo Switch

    Wish I had a hackable Switch. Though I love the game it is a little bit too short for the price, especially given I'd beaten it a few times on other platforms. For a second I was really excited about this, but if you go to the repository on GitHub and check the license you'll see how the...

    Gaming Has anyone been able to buy from Argentina eshop??

    One of the perks of living in a third world South American country like Brazil is that the only thing keeping me from making purchases in the Argentina eShop is making an account. I made a couple of purchases (Cuphead and Celeste) today there for the price they're asking for just Cuphead, while...

    Homebrew Play videos on nintendo switch

    I remember looking up if video playback was a Nintendo Switch feature before deciding to purchase it so that I could ditch the smartphone and have some anime on my 128 GB microSD card, but what I found was that no, playing video files from the Switch is itself is something you can only do with a...

    Hardware Convince me! Should i buy Lite or Regular SWITCH?

    There is no "correct" answer to which is better, but I'll explain the reasons why I ordered a mariko unit (the "new" Switch model) and elaborate on why one would choose one over the other. Reasons why I went with a regular mariko unit: Screen size. After changing phones from a Moto G4 to a...

    Gaming Please Make a Port on Hatsune Miku Project diva in Wii U

    It's not easy or cheap to make a Wii U game from scratch, or even a port. A port would imply the person has access to at least some of the source code for the game they're porting. Only those who have Wii U dev kits have access to official Wii U APIs and can make good use of the Wii U's specs...

    Hardware Nintendo Switch "PRO" Thoughts

    I don't believe a more powerful Nintendo Switch is very likely. Maybe a new, more powerful console released by Nintendo 3 or 4 years from now, but I wouldn't expect backwards compatibility with Nintendo Switch titles unless it's either powerful enough to emulate it or there's incredible...

    Does anybody else still use MP3 Players (rather than just your phone or whatever)?

    I'd welcome a new cheap yet high fidelity portable music player like the Sansa Clip. I had a black 1 GB Sansa Clip onto which I flashed Rockbox, but 1 GB was definitely not enough for my now 275 GB big, mostly FLAC library. If not for the fact I now live in a really large city in which it is...

    Hardware Is the Switch Lite worth buying?

    If you're okay with the fact you will likely never be able to hook it up to a TV, the battery doesn't last as long as some would expect, the screen is a bit smaller than that of the regular model, there is no rumble, and you can't (yet) hack it, then by all means. Games will have less...

    I hope the rats start loving you back soon. Are their memories really so short lived they'd forget you in just 3 days?
