Nintendo Switch #2: 1 year later

[Randy Butternubs]

I've finally completed SteamWorld Dig 2.

 

[Gecklund]

FE 3 houses can't come soon enough. I am so excited for that game. Also excited for Smash.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I was thinking about this while listening to the soundtrack for the game...

If Ubisoft (or someone else) could re-acquire the license, the Scott Pilgrim game would be absolutely perfect for the Switch.

During the weekend and the last two days -

I only have one special class but I’ve finished the thief, scholar, hunter and cleric stories

i wanted the whole gambit. (especially because two of them gives you more JP/XP)
now i am swimming in JP

I’ve been swimming in JP for my main party for a little while now. I’m saving them for the other special classes.

Octopath - while walking around where you get Alfyn I killed some clown with a bag and got like 3000 bucks and 1000 XP. I guess he was supposed to be hard to kill?

I lucked into a ridiculous spear (+71!) With Cyrus and his scrutenize and spent my savings on a 12k sword for Olberic. He is now a murder machine!

This Kickstarter will start today for a really cool dock... but considering how the Switch has been since the 5.0 update and possibly bricking of systems from 3rd party docks, I'm super apprehensive.

Jumpgate Dock

 

[Pilky01]

Hate that I can't trust any 3rd party docks.

At least not until cloud saves come.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I just use this thing:

However, it didn't work at my friend's place just over a month ago. I wonder if it has just stopped working altogether... (I've been too busy with work and travel to hook this up)

I really wish I could trust them. I would spend $50 on the early bird special for the full kit.

This is what is said in the Kickstarter page for bricking:

The cause of the bricking issue:

• Some say “the Nintendo Switch and Dock are chock full of USB-C protocol errors and flaws.”But we have a different opinion. The USB-C protocol (PD protocol) has to be amended in order to prevent the system being hacked and meet Nintendo’s prospects in the future.
• If what Nintendo said about the SWITCH only being compatible with licensed accessories was true, Nintendo should have designed a unique (different shape) socket instead of installing a universal USB-C port, or put warning stickers on the SWITCH and dock. They should have known that people (especially kids) would plug any number of devices into the SWITCH’s USB-C port.
• We believe Nintendo’s engineers conducted compatibility tests with thousands of existing USB-C devices (adaptors, battery banks, hubs, etc) during the testing procedure. However, Nintendo underestimated the potential risks since there are many products made by small companies that do not follow the USB-C (PD) protocols. Nintendo did not give SWITCH proper protection. This is the reason why the SWITCH can be bricked by certain accessories but smart phones and laptops survived.
• As long as the protocols in the accessories are in accordance with the PD protocol standards they should work perfectly with the Nintendo SWITCH. The NYCO dock had PD protocol errors; it drew too much power to the SWITCH and damaged the power management component.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

They are asking for kickstarter money based on their opinion

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Yep. But honestly, I'd love this whole dock setup but the fact that some third party docks can possibly brick your Switch, I'm going to have to pass for now.

Absolutely hooked on Enter the Gungeon now. What a fun as hell game

I just found a 'gun', that is actually a bullet itself, which shoots out guns, guns which ALSO start shooting once they have been fired out of your bullet gun.



I had heard it talked about for years and so glad I finally got around to it. Also I love that there are so many of these kinds of games now where I can ignore it for years and it won't feel dated or stale in the slightest bit.

A great shade of blue too! Would love a matching set, but with proper buttons on the right side.

Still not until cloud saves.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

The lack of cloud saves is f***ing hilarious. Did they say there would be cloud saves with their online service?

 

[Pilky01]

Yeah that is what they said. I am sure it will be a cock up however they implement it though.

 

[Oogie Boogie]

Of course whenever I finally buy Gungeon for PC, it goes on sale on the Switch not long after I buy it for PC

Also



This has made my week
YES!
FINALLY!

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Yeah that is what they said. I am sure it will be a cock up however they implement it though.

I really wish I had it on my original PS3 before my GPU decided to have many artifacts and then basically fry itself. I didn't have PS+ before then, but I have since.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Can't believe I haven't seen more mention of this:

OKAMI HD for Nintendo Switch - Nintendo Game Details

I'll be buying it since I missed it on PS2 and Wii. My one roommate loved it.

what does Bricking your switch mean?
