yeah, nearly paid off with the Mario Kart bundle. The only reason I'm getting it is because my launch switch 1 has seen better days. I'll probably mod my original switch at some point, just not now.

Yep, got the invite email from Nintendo about a week after they started giving them out.

No. I am now wondering whether Nintendo is sending out invites and will get to me before release date.

I don't know what makes them worse than the rest?

Especially because unlike most gaming companies, the CEOs of Nintendo took the hit from the pandemic whereas most other studios had massive layoffs

The rest aren't acting like assholes telling you that they will straight up brick your console if you modify it in any way. By the way, replacing a malfunctioning chip or dead battery counts as a modification. Or selling a game for 10 dollars that teaches you the functions of the Switch 2, when it should have come packaged with the system.

Yeah, they protect their employees, as any good company should. But those same values aren't passed to the consumer. They rarely put 1st party titles on sale, and when they do go on sale the sale price is twice what it should be. People want to put them on a pedestal because they are Nintendo, but companies need to be held accountable for their actions. We saw this with Microsoft a few years ago when they tried to ID tag games to a specific console/account, and then Sony a couple years later for reasons I forget about. Both times people called them out on it.

I could also mention that I think half the games they produce cost way too much to develop. That some point along the production line money is being wasted on something, because it isn't going into the game itself.

Sometimes we just need a nice distraction from the day to day bullshit. Even if we have to drop like 450 to 500 bucks at once for it.

I didn't need the PS5 pro either, swapping my original switch for the pokemon OLED one or a steam deck to be honest, but it can be nice just treating yourself with new thing. Makes you forget the pain of like, life, lol.

I went to EB a couple days ago as I have been gradually paying down the cost, and still had 300 left over after paying a good 500 on it. I really hate living in a province with 15% taxes.

Which should tell you that its online reactionary fearmongering because no, Nintendo isnt going to risk accidentally bricking random innocent peoples system that makes up 99.9999% of their customers. They can have their asses sued for that regardless of what they put in users agreement.
The most likely logical, non-clickbait thing they were saying was that Nintendo simply isnt responsible for any complications, including bricking, that come up due to mods if it interacts poorly with their updates.

The 10 dollar tech demo is lame though.

no. none of the games they shown really interest me much. the few i do wanna play will be on switch 1. donkey kong i'm not sold on so waiting a few months to get honest reviews on it. haven't really played many souls games except bloodborne and tried demon souls so not really interested in them being on switch 2. i'd like to play mario kart but not enough to spend $500 on it.

now when we get a new zelda or mario i'd probably pick it up. or if they somehow decide to put out a new f zero or punch out game.

I do but I am waiting for an update. The feeding frenzy is contagious and even though I am playing Ys VIII happily and the Metroid Primes are yet to be announced

I become more and more convinced I am in agony without a Switch 2 in my hot little hands.

I finally found a memory card. Walmart got a restock of 512GB Micro SD Express cards. Theyre cheaper than the other cards on the market too.

I wanted a 1TB card, but the soonest I could get one was September. 512GB should last me until large cards are more available and prices come down.

are they not the same cards the original Switch uses?

I tried to preorder from my local game store, they got screwed over by their distributor. The claim was "Nintendo won't ship to all smaller stores" which might be true. So...I will wait. I don't need it right away.

Im going to buy one later this year. Mario Kart isnt enough for me. F-Zero GX is cool but Ive played that game for hundreds of hours. Its not enough for me to buy a new console. Once DK, Pokemon Legends ZA, and especially Kirby Air Riders are out, itll be an easy buy.
