    And is everyone "excited about cloud saves and legacy content"? Eh, no!

    To be fair :
    Everyone *is* excited about cloud saves. However they're not excited about having to pay for them when there's no viable free alternative for securing your game progress.

    Everyone *is* excited about legacy content. Just not the legacy content they're currently offering.

    I don't think a single one of the upcoming releases posted in the day two days by Sligeach tickle my fancy :( Very, very anaemic selection, to my eyes. That being said, if there were a PC releases thread and Steam's daily releases were listed out each day, I'm sure I'd be equally unimpressed; I think posting absolutely everything that is announced leads to disappointment faster than curation of the release videos.

    Agreed.

    This will be a hardware refresh rather than a new console, so no question existing Switch games and accessories will work just fine, if the rumours are true.

    Bowletta from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga since she is female creature to bowser make her bowsette too
    Wendy O. Koopa bowser's own daughter is a she is female creature to bowser make her bowsette too
    Pom Pom she is female creature to koopa and bowser and koopa are related which makes her bowsette too
    peach has mention she mentioned she was the mother of bowser jr which makes peach her bowsette too
    non mention mother has mention she mentioned she was the mother of baby bowser which makes her bowsette too
    non mention mother has mention she mentioned she was the mother of koopa kids which makes her bowsette too
    so before peachette and bowsette became
    official thing bowsettes, bowsettes having been around as female bowsers and koopas super mario bros 1988
    bowsettes defines as female bowser

    lena koopa

    Mentioning the 3DS is interesting there though. Probably in the realms of fantasy but given Nintendo's track record with handhelds, it would be great to see them add a 3DS cart slot to the redesigned Switch.

    We've had Gameboy on GBA, GBA on DS and DS on 3DS. Why not 3DS on Switch?

    They could keep the internals of the Switch itself the same, maybe make some mostly cosmetic changes. Some of the options:

    - make it larger
    - fix and redesign the Joy-Cons
    - make the Joy-Cons larger, with larger buttons and sticks
    - larger internal memory
    - use a better wi-fi network chip
    - better battery life
    - higher resolution screen

    And/or they work on the dock. Put some components in there that so when the Switch is docked it has more power. So games that were previously 720p, 30fps regularly docked, now can run 1080p/60fps. Kind of like a third setting, PC games have different settings for various games, so why not? Or it'll allow games that otherwise couldn't run on Switch, to now arrive. They be exclusive to this model of Switch, the way Xenoblade Chronicles was ported to the New 3DS. This new docked Switch could be like the N64's Expansion Pack. Just a thought, don't know if they'd do that though or if it's really possible.

    All they would need to do is release a "second screen" add on that has a 3ds card slot. A second screen that attaches to the top of the switch to make giant 3ds. I'd buy it.

    They'd just do what they did on the WiiU, have it in portrait mode and split the screen top to bottom.

    Any and all 3/DS games for the playing.

    Dammit. I promised I wouldn't buy any more, but I loved this game, and it's way overdue for a replay, and I only played the original, not the extended super version! I figured it would come - delighted!

    Cant see the links in work, whats the price like?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,529 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    £11.99 in the UK, so I assume €14.99 here.

    It should go live at 9am PST/Noon EST, so that's 5pm here.

    It's a SoC not a graphics card.
    Also, good luck to your extra battery life if you're going to just waste it on a 1080 resolution screen. I personally think the resolution is fine on the current model.
    Also, why do people want browsers on their consoles?

    Do you not have a phone? Browsing is always going to be better on one than a console.

    What you're talking about there is a phone? Also, with the benefit of a phone, you can setup a hotspot and play multiplayer on your switch.

    Who would want to be able to quickly switch from their game to a browser to check something, and quickly switch back to their game, when they could instead find a flat surface for their console, or hold it between their knees, or hand it to a loved one, or even a stranger, before digging around in their pocket or handbag or backpack for their phone to quickly check something?

    Honestly this feigned inability to understand why a browser on the Switch would be great is bizarre.

    I genuinely don't understand. Maybe it's the many years of multi-screening. I'm used to having devices hanging off me. And I like it!

    But sure you could still use away whatever device you like. You could pull a typewriter out of your bag to write a letter if you want and you won't have me coming along to explain what a phone and email are in case I thought you didn't understand.

    I can guarantee you I'd put my Switch down, take out my phone, Google whatever I need, have a bite of my sandwich and start playing again before you even finished typing out you Google search on the Switch.
