Have to say it doesn't bode well for the future of the console when it can't properly run it's own flagship title on day one Exactly. I know that Nintendo don't try to compete hardware wise anymore, but they do seem to get a pass where others wouldn't. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
villa4europe 14,122 Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I think the mistake is that Nintendo have let people compare it with the PS4 and Xbone we should all be sat here amazed at the amazing handheld console they've just released... Link to post Share on other sites
LakotaDakota 3,007 Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) Anyone tried licking the game cart yet? They have all been specially coated in Denatonium Benzoate which is really, really bitter to try and prevent kids eating/swallowing them. (It is harmless/non-toxic but it is the stuff used in animal repellent, soap, shampoo etc so doesn't taste good) Not sure why they haven't done this for years on ds games etc as the amount of those you see with teeth marks in them if you buy used games is quite scary. Go on, You know you want to give it a try now you know about it Edited March 3, 2017 by LakotaDakota Link to post Share on other sites

Chindie 10,937 Posted March 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 The launch lineup is baaaaaaaaaaad. It's Zelda, Snipperclips and... A whole lot of nothing. Link to post Share on other sites
villakram 1,592 Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Bomberman should be brill for multiplayer too. They're taking the piss charging full price for it though. Link to post Share on other sites
jim 2,938 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Well I'm getting joycon connection issues sitting just 6ft away and this is their response. http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22513/p/897 Looks like it will be going back unless a fix is forthcoming as Zelda was unplayable using the grip. Shame as other wise it's a great bit of kit. Link to post Share on other sites
PieFacE 9,982 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Hmmm seems the joycon has real issues. Looking at the description of places that they say to not put it... Quote Ensure that the Nintendo Switch console is placed to minimize interference with the Joy-Con. It is best if the Nintendo Switch console is placed out in the open and that it is not: Behind a TV Near an aquarium Placed in or under a metal object Pressed against a large amount of wires and cordsWithin three to four feet of another wireless device, such as a wireless speaker or a wireless access point. Check for possible sources of interference and turn them off. Interference can be caused by devices, such as: Laptops, tablets, etc. Wireless headsets Wireless printers Microwaves Wireless speakers Cordless phones USB 3.0-compatible devices such as hard drives, thumb drives, LAN adapters, etc. This thing just wouldn't work in my living room environment.

Not sure. Fallout 3 and Skyrim ran like dogs when they first came out and I played them on PS3. In the case of Skyrim it took them literally months to fix it. I would still rank it as one of the best games ever, despite those issues. Edited March 4, 2017 by hogso Link to post Share on other sites

Wow really haven't seen much hype about this with sales etc. I am going to see if there are any in stock when I go to shops later see if they aware sold out everywhere. But £50 for a game is pathetic. Whoever came up with this pricing strategy should be sacked Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think anyone is going to pay that with the limited amount of games on release I think this consoles sales are going to be a flop on launch Link to post Share on other sites
