anyone playing splatoon 2? skipped the wii u ver so this is my first

pretty chill game.. the game plays it way too safe.. i can never see myself getting frustrated on the losing end of online match...... not gonna bother to use the switch app (heard its horrible experience to use)

i bought this and ARMS for $50 during the amazon e3 sale.. there was a glitch where it would stack up the prime and e3 discount....

stop playing ARMS after one week.. dont know how long im gonna play this one.. and i gotta be honest, only reason i bought and play these games is so Switch can get some action..

i did consider selling it but i think i might regret it when there is even more shortage during the holidays when Mario Odyssey and xenoblade comes out

The way the lineup is going this may be nintendos last console unless they pull a rabbit out of their ass..

All I've played Is Zelda, Mario kart felt way too simple

I received Splatoon 2 also on launch day.

It's still sealed in the Amazon envelope....

just cash in now

if Nintendo can't meet demand 8 months after system launch then they probably don't deserve your hard-earned money.

EB gets stock during the week almost every week, i was lucky because i was able to drive by a few different ones on a daily basis so i got one within a week or so after i started looking.

Anyone played the Lego cities game? kinda hesitant to buy it as it's just a port from other consoles but the coop modes are always fun

i ordered that C-Force 001 thingy of taobao

Since I have a 2016 MacbookPro, it should be fine

everyone says those crowdfunded ones are just rebranded from that

Will report back if it works, becuz a dongle like this will always be in my bag

I haven't played it before but from what I've heard, it's a really fun game. However it's a "full priced" game when the Wii U version was a "discounted" title and it requires a pretty hefty install and patch

i still wouldn't pick it up on switch
but i've been playing the beta for NHL18 on the PS4

the game is EXACTLY the SAME with a few good dekes... and slightly improved defensive stick mechanism

overall, the AI still sucks. but its beta...

but im not hoping for much

Still using the stock joycon, I don't play enough to justify spending $100 for a Pro controller right now. That said, no point getting a second grip and joycon unless there are more 4 player couch coop games out.

I use the pro controller and don't regret buying it. My hands were just a little too big for the other setups and would cramp a bit.

the Pro controller hurts the wallet, but it feels quite ergonomic
I've definitely made poorer investment in console accessories (PlayStation Move...was only well-implemented for maybe only a few games )

I have a pro controller, it's definitely a hard pill to take.

The ergonomics and the battery life make up for the cost.

I would rather buy this than joy cons

https://gizmodo.com/this-snes-style-...ned-1795858424

Ergonomics on the joy cons are pretty bad.
