looks like there's a lot of Labo sets with reviewers this week, so we'll see how that turns out.

The only things I HATE about the Switch are the minuscule internal storage of 32GB, no way to legally copy saves from one console to either the cloud/SD card or another Switch console (you can copy saves using hacking which could brick the console, but Nintendo COULD just add this feature in a damn UPDATE!!) and the sub-par 720p LCD screen, it is just as bad as an iphone screen...they could have used a Samsung 2K or 4K OLED display but they cut corners at every turn JUST to get it out cheaper... Much like Sony tried to do by cutting costs (a bit too lately for me to buy one) with the PS3 by removing the hardware of the PS2 inside of it then adding a weak emulator software to do PS2 discs then removing that as well...

There are MANY things they could improve upon and they are adding features that we have been asking for and games we want on it, but these above basic things (esp the saving and storage capacity) are the main things! I know you can add up to 256GB SD cards to it but they are still about $200 here in Oz for one of those. I have a 256GB microSD card in my 64GB Samsung Galaxy S8 and it cost $249. I plan to get a 400GB at Xmas on sale for it but still, they should have options for such high capacity Switches!

It wouldn't have the power to display at that resolution anyway! for the size of the screen, native 720p looks great. I've played the majority of Zelda in portable mode because it looks better than it would connected to a TV.

or just bundle it with an SD card.

Nintendo are never going to compete graphically with the Pro's, X's and PC's of this world, and they have no intention of doing so. If that's not something that works for you, then that's just the way it is. I'd never bought a new Nintendo console before the Switch, but I knew what I was getting when I did.

Now that makes me so happy to hear! Did you win it?

So, did anyone here get the Labo?

Nope, it's not for me. I don't think my Switch has been on for a month or more anyway.

Yeah i can't see any adults enjoying it. Over a month w/o the switch? Are you going to get the new donkey kong game this week? That kinda looks good. If they could bring a new Mario Party to the Switch, I'll buy one.

Yeah, its time may be up. I'm not even going to get Dark Souls for it anymore.

I bought Bayonetta/Bayonetta 2 and only played it for about an hour but I'm currently playing NieR: Automata on PC, so maybe I'll want to play another Platinum game once I'm done.

As for DK, probably not.

Alright guys. So this is in no way an immature ultimatum or anything, but if I get the comod position here, i'll literally go out that day or the day after, video record myself buying a switch, and upload no less than 2 gameplay videos a week. I want one anyways but having something on here is part of a few things i'd really like to do to make this place hopping again! Interactivity and e-gaming. I'm pumped for the possibilities!

I don't think you'll have much competition for the role, to be honest.

I picked up Stardew Valley on Sunday, so I've been playing that on the bus this week. Mobile farming.

That sounds like a fun thing to do Matt! The only way I have streamed on my Switch was with my phone on a tripod videoing my monitor/screen. Not worth uploading such videos so I didn't bother hey...Plus i'd have to upload it and hope my internet lasted (which it rarely if ever does...)

Did you point out that you'd try and do this sort of thing in the application and mention how we are these days? I did say that there is no bad blood between us - they are hooked up on something from yeeeeears ago! We all grow as time goes on, apart or together. Different for everyone, but life is short so no point in making others feel bad hey. Live and let live. as that saying goes. I hope they understand and if you are the only person who applies they WILL accept you as a mod here this time!

Trying to decide whether or not to pick this up this week -



I'll check out the reviews, but they'll probably be rehashed WiiU ones.
