Wow! The amFilm screen protector is the easiest protector I've ever applied!
Like, clean the screen, place it...that was it. Was expecting to fuck it off like always, was expecting dust...bubbles...re-read the instructions assuming I missed a step. XD

By the way, Pocket Rumble still has no date?

I really can't believe I managed to get my hands on one of these as early as I did. I was prepared to wait until Christmas, but managed to nab the last one a local Wal-Mart had about a week ago.
I have gone through two screen protectors, both being pack-in ones with accessories. The portfolio case is really great for playing in between classes, but it seems a little crooked (I might be crazy though).
Is there a definitive list of games coming out in the coming months with dates and descriptions?

Just got the system. Anyway to charge the joycons while they are connected to the tablet in the dock/tv mode while not in use(systems off?)
Also had a scare. Zelda wouldn't work. Kept giving me a software error please exit. Restarted it and it worked. Phew.
Any must haves? Just ordered an amfilm protector. Got a second pair of joycons. Was thinking of picking up a charging grip and pro controller when i can find one. Whats this usb c stuff all about?!

^ same, A to C charges quickly enough for me
well i have confirmed, my left joycon doesnt grip right to the switch anymore, i think is a problem with the switch because as far as i can tell it holds tight to the joycon grip.
im wondering if sending it to warranty, but since im in mexico i dont know if they would be able to transfer my saves in the case that they have to replace it.
mmmmmm

Same. After this much silence I wonder if they're doing a total revamp.

Eesh, that seems like a bad deal unless you want all those games.
I wonder if they have non-bundles in stock but not releasing them until the bundles sell out.
EDIT: Actually, since it's just stuff they sell and ship separately, of course they do. Scummy.

Vroom in the Night Sky is pure crap, don't bother with this one, it got like 16 on Metacritic.
There's an OT for Graceful Explosion Machine here : http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1358267
And people are discussing Alpha Mission II (and other Neo Geo games) here :http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1333497&page=25

Thanks! Maybe there should be an eStore thread to discuss new releases on Thursday? I'd make it but I'm still a junior.
I'm wondering if AM2 supports screen rotating.
My concern is that it'll launch during the subscription and big online rollout in the fall.
But I hope that it's just a quick announcement and line-up list during E3. I'm ready for some old games!
Neon Switch in stock at Gamestop. Bundled with Zelda, Zelda DLC, Lego City, and Has Been Heroes.

Has anybody else seen this? It looks really awesome, but I haven't funded anything on Indiegogo yet...

When I go to system settings > internet > internet settings my Switch will often suddenly go black and freeze.
I've had this happen twice now. And the result is to hold the power button for like 10 seconds to shut it off.
Scary though when it happens as there's no indication on why it's doing this.
Anyone else getting this problem?

I feel like they would be crazy not to attempt a reach of a larger audience with Bayo 1 and 2. That franchise has a chance.
Yeah, I was surprised myself also. Just that my amFilm has a speck of dust sandwiched into it.

I assume Nintendo would have to get publishing rights for the first game from SEGA again. They might not think it's worthwhile.
Sent in my original joy-cons for repair, got em back, problems I noted were fixed.
The left joy-con's rumble sounded broken (like a spring was going off inside) and the left joy-con from my extra pair of joy-cons was having issues.
Send those two left ones in. Got em back today, and the fuckers didn't fix a damn thing or replace them. It seems this time they were sent to an authorized third party.
Sending them in a third time, hopefully this is the charm. The lady this time didn't sound like she knew what she was doing though...the second time the dude on the line was extremely helpful.

I don't think they want to encourage tabletop mode outside of using their own kickstand. Last thing you need is folks fabricating some sort of kickstand themselves and breaking their hardware in the process.
Ahah there is an element of that, still the level design seemed to be pretty gentle from what I played so that wasn't as frustrating as it could've been. There are pretty frequent checkpoints in the levels too, though you only have so many lives to finish them.
I would be very very careful with crowdfunded hardware ESPECIALLY if you need them to hit the estimated date.

My left joycon has developed something of a 'click' when I rock the stick back and forth between the 11 and 1 o'clock position. Sounds metallic when I go over it, like a spring in the way of the joystick's movement. Right joycon doesn't have anything like this.
Can someone confirm what I already know and tell me their left joycon doesn't do this? Before I suck it up and get a hold of Nintendo support.

Looks like it took 1 day to get Runner 3 running on Switch.
We were nervous at first about developing for the Switch, simply because there are always unknowns with new platforms. We ended up getting the game running on the console in only a day, however, and its been smooth sailing ever since!

I would take only the second one too. I do not have a Wii U or DS or anything.

Hey remember when I was getting proper times on games in my profile while everyone else had to wait 7 or 10 days for it to show? Well today it's gone screwy in another way!
I've been playing Zelda since launch, and yesterday it said "Played for 105 or more hours". And, uh, now look.

Airplane mode cuts power consumption. What brightness are you playing at? Volume level?
USB-A to USB-C does the trick, it even charges, albeit slowly. A long plane trip will trickle charge the Switch just like how a powerbank does for phones. You need USB-C to USB-C with PD capability to fast-charge while playing Zelda at full volume on headphones and max
brightness.
Any activity other than pushing the Switch hard in intensive activities, like if it's just idling on the dashboard, will top up the battery faster. I've seen Zelda topping up at 18W power draw (15V 1.2A) when measured through my USB-C power meter. That's in certain grassy area, in the rain, with Link's constant health warning beeping in the background, at max volume on headphones and brightness.
This is a typical average readout while playing Zelda (max brightness, max volume, WiFi on), charging using my USB-PD capable powerbank. Between 15V 1A and 15V 1.2A. That charging rate allows 1% Switch battery topup every 2 minutes.
Using USB-A to USB-C on the USB-A port on the powerbank gives a stock 5V 1.5A, and using the same controlled conditions (max brightness, max volume, WiFi on), I barely moved 2% battery charge into the Switch after 22 minutes of charging.
It's the reverse. USB-A to USB-C falls back to the lowest safe charging rate, 5V 1.5A, IRREGARDLESS of any possible fast-charge/quick-charge protocol it has. Even if the USB-A port advertises itself as a quick-charge port with 2A, 2.4A or even maximum 3A.
USB-C to USB-C however can the capability of carrying up to 20V 5A, that's 100W. Failing charging protocol negotiation between the charging device and the device it is charging, means that there's overcurrent draw potential to fry your device. Hence the caution for USB-C to USB-C.
The rest, what FX-GMC said.
I don't think it's supposed to but my left joycon does this also.
Thank you, but it's not letting me pick a state for some reason? Is that normal?
My brand new right controller does this too, I thought it was supposed to do that lmao.
