    So I bought a switch 2 today, rather this evening... A friend broke hers and knows I wanted a switch 2 but couldn't justify it to myself since I have an oled and there's not many switch 2 exclusives yet so she offered to pay half the switch 2 mario kart bundle and the official microsd express card if I gave (technically sell) her my oled. It's taking forever to download all my games/dlc that automatically triggered from the transfer option. I did end up buying a 512G card on amazon but it won't be here for a bit, hopefully it's easy to migrate to a new card or easy to re-download some of the games (do plan on deleting the games/updates that require the card first). I almost filled up one of the 256G storage :lol:

    you really must like Nintendo.. for me Xbox ally will do good, as i do have an xbox . but it seems ally is more expensive, i remember spending $500 on the xbox like 3-4 years ago or so...

    I have a xbox series x too, I even bought a fpga that can play games/consoles that could easily be emulated on my steam deck, pc, or even those check pirated handhelds you can buy in many stores/amazon. Heck, can even emulate switch 1 stuff on the deck easily. But it's not the same as using actual hardware and multiplayer with friends.

    Though I do agree on their pricing for the console and games but if you think other systems aren't going to do the same thing you're tricking yourself. I mean, look at their price increases they've done for hardware that's already made/in stores.

    Yes, that's true. I don't have many friends who own Switch or for that matter any Nintendo gear. It's prolly cause Switches aren't officially sold in India and thus lack warranty.

    TRIGGERED THE SPAM/TIME OUT BY ACCIDENT!

    I totally thought it was 6 commends in a minute, not 5 to trigger it :lol:

    On this thread?

    I guess you can do 5 comments in a minute. You get a warning on the 6th in a minute, right?

    you get the spam block after 5 and only get the warning when you try the 6th. And if you try before those 2 minutes are up, it resets the timer :joy:

    Yah, I used to get hit with those like crazy during my first NY thread while I was competing against the great FrankZ. Since then, I have been careful. But, this time around when I got hit, it was during the heat of a giveaway or intense hyping activity, which is why I couldn't actually check the details carefully.

    I owned a switch oled, friend had a first gen switch (which broke). I basically sold mine to get the new one. Will be interesting with the battery life though since I believe it's less with the more demanding games

    Oh I see. How is it BTW? I have heard it has beefier specs than the original Switch. Wonder if Dev's can get Android or maybe some form of Linux running on it. Pretty sure it could then run some PC games on it, in which case, it would be a great device to own.
    BTW, does switch 2 have worse battery over 1?

    I'dunno on battery life yet as I just got it and have it on the charger since it's downloading all my games/dlc/etc. Definitely more powerful than the previous gen and I've read the battery life varies depending on how demanding the game is. Kind of like the PC handhelds if you're not streaming from some other PC

    BTW, does the Switch have other official ports except RDR and Crysis?

    Yeah, I have lots of friends and family with nintendo stuff so it's kind of a must. Do also have friends with PCs/other consoles too. Though I do like Nintedo's stuff, it's different compared to a xbox/ps/pc. PC is ahead of ps/xbox but one could argue they're basically the same where nintedo is kind of in their own lane. While I do like Nintendo, I'm not one of those blind fans, I know Nintendo does Nintendo things...

    Nintendo is famous for suing websites and ROM holders. But, theyr aren't completely wrong there since it's their IP they are fighting for. I believe they also were able to shut down a Switch emulator project completely. I have used a Lite before and played RDR on it. Could say right away the game was well-polished and optimsied to run on Switch hardware, the first doesn't have the best sepcs.
    I wish Nintendo would spend more on porting PC games.

    Yeah, sony/microsoft basically sold their consoles at loses because they would make it up with accessories, games, and even their online subscriptions. Heck, the first xbox was basically a super discounted off the shelf pentium 3 with a nvidia gpu (of course, the bios locked it down but you could flash a different one or install a chip that basically just overrided the onboard one)

    Don't worry too much. Unless you are doing like 1-15 word replies, I have found that it balances out very well and doesn't let you do more than 5 in a minute. Or, maybe it's my slower pace, prolly.

But, I didn't know the Xbox had a Pentium under the hood. I always thought, MS and Sony just loved AMD for their consoles from the beginning.

    Yeah, no comment on the rom sites :) They only "won" the emulator thing because they didn't have the money to fight them in court. Them also going after palworld and patenting things to get them is also stuff that falls into the "Nintendo doing Nintendo things" saying. While I'm not a fan of those type of games, after seeing the new pokemon games, I can see why they're going after palworld :lol:

    But, it would make sense, because AMD was really bad in those years. Bad quality, bad cost to performance ratio and what not. Their luck changed with the new CEO who just skyrocketed AMD, esp. with the launch of Ryzen.

    BTW, does the Switch have other official ports except RDR and Crysis?

    They do, they've actually have been more open to ports and "more mature" games since they released the first switch.

I did end up buying a 512G card on amazon but it won't be here for a bit, hopefully it's easy to migrate to a new card or easy to re-download some of the games (do plan on deleting the games/updates that require the card first). I almost filled up one of the 256G storage :lol:

    you really must like Nintendo.. for me Xbox ally will do good, as i do have an xbox . but it seems ally is more expensive, i remember spending $500 on the xbox like 3-4 years ago or so...

    I have a xbox series x too, I even bought a fpga that can play games/consoles that could easily be emulated on my steam deck, pc, or even those check pirated handhelds you can buy in many stores/amazon. Heck, can even emulate switch 1 stuff on the deck easily. But it's not the same as using actual hardware and multiplayer with friends.

    Yes, that's true. I don't have many friends who own Switch or for that matter any Nintendo gear. It's prolly cause Switches aren't officially sold in India and thus lack warranty.

    Yeah, I have lots of friends and family with nintendo stuff so it's kind of a must. Do also have friends with PCs/other consoles too. Though I do like Nintedo's stuff, it's different compared to a xbox/ps/pc. PC is ahead of ps/xbox but one could argue they're basically the same where nintedo is kind of in their own lane. While I do like Nintendo, I'm not one of those blind fans, I know Nintendo does Nintendo things...

    Nintendo is famous for suing websites and ROM holders. But, theyr aren't completely wrong there since it's their IP they are fighting for. I believe they also were able to shut down a Switch emulator project completely. I have used a Lite before and played RDR on it. Could say right away the game was well-polished and optimsied to run on Switch hardware, the first doesn't have the best sepcs.
    I wish Nintendo would spend more on porting PC games.

    Yeah, no comment on the rom sites :) They only "won" the emulator thing because they didn't have the money to fight them in court. Them also going after palworld and patenting things to get them is also stuff that falls into the "Nintendo doing Nintendo things" saying. While I'm not a fan of those type of games, after seeing the new pokemon games, I can see why they're going after palworld :lol:

    OH yah, I had completely forgotten about the Palwordl fiasco. BTW, when it comes to emulators, what is their legal status? I mean, are emulators themselves illegal since they don't ship games with their software. I dunno how these work, but, I do assume the emulators do use a bit of proprietary Nintendo code to get the games running. Is that where the legal issue is?

    So I bought a switch 2 today, rather this evening... A friend broke hers and knows I wanted a switch 2 but couldn't justify it to myself since I have an oled and there's not many switch 2 exclusives yet so she offered to pay half the switch 2 mario kart bundle and the official microsd express card if I gave (technically sell) her my oled. It's taking forever to download all my games/dlc that automatically triggered from the transfer option. I did end up buying a 512G card on amazon but it won't be here for a bit, hopefully it's easy to migrate to a new card or easy to re-download some of the games (do plan on deleting the games/updates that require the card first). I almost filled up one of the 256G storage :lol:

    I am confused. Did you buy a broken Switch 2 from your friend?

    I owned a switch oled, friend had a first gen switch (which broke). I basically sold mine to get the new one. Will be interesting with the battery life though since I believe it's less with the more demanding games

    Oh I see. How is it BTW? I have heard it has beefier specs than the original Switch. Wonder if Dev's can get Android or maybe some form of Linux running on it. Pretty sure it could then run some PC games on it, in which case, it would be a great device to own.
    BTW, does switch 2 have worse battery over 1?

    I'dunno on battery life yet as I just got it and have it on the charger since it's downloading all my games/dlc/etc. Definitely more powerful than the previous gen and I've read the battery life varies depending on how demanding the game is. Kind of like the PC handhelds if you're not streaming from some other PC

    BTW, does the Switch have other official ports except RDR and Crysis?

    They do, they've actually have been more open to ports and "more mature" games since they released the first switch.

    Oh, didn't know this. I do love the OLED Switch though, cause I love tinkering a lot. On a Deck or an Ally everything comes prepared since they run both Windows or Linux out of the box. I don't want that. I love to play with the device, not games, but, learn dev stuff. That's where the enjoyment is for me. :lol:
