Will do, thanks for the recommendations! Definitely looking into DKC, Mario Tennis, and Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. Most excited for Smash 5, of course Based on when in 2018 Smash 5 comes out, it may end up being a holiday season present.

"Following the Nintendo Direct teaser, Nintendo has told us that Super Smash Bros is coming at some point in 2018, though a more specific date has not been divulged."

Edit: I also hope that KH3 or a FFVII remake come to the Switch.

Dead Cells when it comes out. Just watch a trailer for that game and you will understand why.


Beautiful trailer

Just bought darkest dungeon before the color of madness dlc release(played it 60+ hours on pc)
I did not think it would be this hard to play on switch though.They managed to fit everything in the control scheme but i think it was pretty confusing in the first hour or so. Still, it gets better so if you haven't played it yet, it is a really good tactical rpg with lovecraftian themes

Anyone have any experience with off brand controllers? I want to get two more for 4p Mario Kart but I’m not trying to spend $60 a pop for two more pros.

This is the one I have:
http://www.8bitdo.com/sn30pro-sf30pro/

It's got some pros and cons. I got it for $55 CAD (I believe it's just under $40 USD) so it's not a cheap controller by any means. From what I've seen, all of the cheaper alternatives don't have motion controls. It's OK as a controller. I'll know more about it tomorrow when I start playing DKC (a genre that really tests the quality of a controller's D-Pad)

Pros:
- Buttons, sticks and d-pad all feel pretty good. Especially the D-Pad

Cons:
- Pressing the L2/R2 (or whatever it's called on the Switch) is awkward with this kind of controller. Or more specifically, resting your middle fingers on the shoulder buttons while maintaining a good grip is awkward.

- Getting a weird issue with Splatoon 2 where it keeps giving me an error message about not detecting an Amiibo. This happens during lobby and shopping, never in game. But it's still annoying. I've contacted 8bitdo and they say they're aware of it and are working on a firmware update


For a cheaper alternative that doesn't have gyro/rumble, Power A's looks pretty interesting:

thank you for your input!

I was actually thinking about those since I have a few Retropies and I can easily pull double duty with both. Was a bit worried about what you said with the bumpers.

Definitely interested in those power As. Rumble and movement detection doesn't really matter to me. Wireless would definitely be preferred, but not a must since the system isn't far away from my couch

When I get time tomorrow, I'll take a few pictures to show what I mean. I don't think I did a good job explaining it, but I'm having trouble finding the right words. It's a good controller overall. I don't want to make it seem like I'm underselling it. The buttons and D-Pad feel nice.

I think for your case (cheap alternative controller for p3 and p4) the Power A sounds good. I can't recommend a controller I've never used, but if I wanted a cheaper controller, that's the one I'd try

edit:

Here's a PS3 controller. The shoulders are bigger, giving you more room to rest both your index and middle fingers. The grip where your hand goes helps out a lot. The concept applies to pretty much any modern controller

Here's the 8bitdo. If you only use your index finger and your index switches between R1 and R2, then you'll be OK, but if you want to rest your middle finger on R2, it feels kinda weird. The SNES form factor just wasn't intended for having multiple shoulder buttons.

I have average-ish to slightly below average size hands, so it might be even worse if you have big hands

You can also buy a brook converter and use a ps3/ps4 controller for around $35.

NES games online is interesting, but their line-up sucks. And it will continue to suck until they add Ice Hockey, RBI Baseball, Super Dodge Ball, and River City Ransom.

Or at least just Ice Hockey, the world needs more Ice Hockey.

Costco is a larger company than Nintendo. Their net income is almost equal to their membership fee revenue. Nintendo is not turning down something that is almost pure profit.

It seems dumb that people think the pokemon game will be a mainline game. It's right there in the name that it's a spinoff.

Lets Go pikachu? Pokemon GO integrration? lets go, pokemon go? Go-go? Of course it has go integration. This will be just a neat little spinoff.

Rumors seem more like a soft reboot, especially if the screenshot is legit. Go has a ridiculous reach, even after the hype has died. So it only makes sense to have some sort of interaction. I personally don't think it's going to be more than "Oh, you walked this many km, here's a BP" and some sort of Pokewalker 2.0 kind of stuff.

Does anyone know if Yooka Laylee for the Switch is only obtainable through digital purchase, or if I can buy an actual game disc for it? I prefer to buy the physical copies of all my games, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Which means digital only.

Maybe not the one that was leaked, but didn't Nintendo announce that Gamefreak was indeed working on a mainline game back at the last E3?
