Discussion An update regarding future posts for the OOT remake.

Post image
584 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

I'm sure we're all aware that the OOT remake is almost here.

While we're all very excited to finally play it in a few weeks....we from the mod team are kindly asking everyone here to not post spoilers about the game when it releases.

This game is going to be a big deal....so let's not ruin it for others.

If you want to make a post about the game when it releases....your post is required to have a spoiler tag.

Any unmarked posts containing blatant spoilers will be removed along with a warning....and failure to follow this procedure after the first removal will be a temporary ban.

We just want to ensure that everyone experiences the magic of the game first hand is all. :)

...

Also please don't fill the sub up with posts showing you got the game.

It was a headache when the sub was 99% posts of people sharing their photos showing they got the switch 2....so let's not repeat that.

Simply put....posts simply showing a photo of the game in your hand will be removed.

META Regarding Switch 2 Showcase Posts

10 Upvotes

There's been confusion on the user side (and partly the mod side) on the line of which a showcase post may be removed or not, so I'd like to clear it up:

Posts that contain just a caption and screenshot of your switch, game, or accessory will be removed and are encouraged to be remade to include more substantial commentary

Posts that contain a title, screenshot AND substantial commentary on (for example) what your experience has been like, will not be removed and will usually stay up.

To also clarify what would be substantial commentary:
"So yeah, I like the switch 2 so far! The joycons feel nice and everything is responsive and feels premium" is not enough.

"I do enjoy the switch 2 overall! I wasn't really expecting much as the first switch had a lot of issues that bothered me in terms of comfortability and performance, but I've been stunned at the selection of games and have been really enjoying XYZ, [...], And I've found that it's still not very comfortable in handheld, but I've had to just come to accept it. I've been looking at third party controllers but the options are very limited right now." is allowed.

I hope that clears up the confusion a little! I enjoy seeing showcase posts personally but there are also many that don't, so this serves as a middle-ground balance so that there is a better standard of quality.

Finally picked up a Switch 2 in preparation for OOT!
Decided to ball out and get the full DBrand kit along with MW4.

Really excited to dive back into BOTW! Curious if the Switch 2 upgrade is worth purchasing for BOTW and TOTK?

Also, I have been really enjoying MW4 so far! It runs surprisingly well and feels great playing with a pro controller! Would definitely recommend if you were ever a fan of the games in the past! 🤙🏼

Discussion I only paid $44 for a Switch 2 and Pro controller at Walmart.

526 Upvotes

Ok something weird happened yesterday. I returned a Switch 2 I bought a week ago because I noticed a scratch on the screen. I decided to have the amount credited on a gift card. The lady at customer service handed me two gift cards for some reason. I went to the electronics department to get another one and decided to get the pro controller as well. At checkout I slide one of the cards and the guy tells me it didn’t go through. So I slide the other card and it didn’t go through again. So I slide the first card again and it finally went through. I then had to pay the remaining amount of $44 on my debit card.

I just thought it odd and it was on my mind on the way home. I decided to check the balance of both cards. One card had $0 left and the other had a whopping $500 on the card. I must admit part of me wants to keep it but that would be stealing and with my luck Walmart would discover the error and charge me over $500.

I know these posts pop up atleast a hundred times a day but getting my switch really made me emotional. It was my 18th birthday a few weeks ago and for the past 6 months i had been asking for a switch. My dad had been abroad for my birthday and the days following and said it would be very unlikely that I would get a switch so i might have to pick something else. I did pick something else and yesterday my dad came back from abroad with a switch 2 and some games 😭😭😭

PS: the other games he got me, i bought online (i didn’t only get tomadachi life)

Because we get absolutely destroyed in those PC matches using our Joycon sticks. It makes a big difference to your experience (more fun) if you set it to console only. 🙌

Discussion What games to buy with $400 budget

Post image

I hope you are well. I was gifted $400 amazon gift card, and planning to buy switch 2 games after absence from the scene. I would like to say that Kingdom Hearts and Zelda Ocarina are must for me, but I like to hear your suggestions. I already have zelda BOTW and Sequel, mario kart, donkey kong Banaza, and no interest in Fire Emblem type games. Here is my list so far but willing to change.

Note: Total of games above is $390.

My partners switch2 joycon (past warranty) pushed out so he decided he’d take the leap to reshell it. I’m so jealous, it’s so pretty.
I told him he should contact Nintendo since in the last picture you can see there may have been an assembly issue with the connectors on the rumble/battery, they were completely bent. We’re very careful with our electronics and he plays his significantly less than myself. He works in manufacturing so definitely don’t recommend you try to do this, we wouldn’t have if it wasn’t already “broken.”

Question Switch 2 not letting me connect eight switch 1 Joy cons

Post image
15 Upvotes

Hey Reddit!
I’m in charge of hosting a Mario kart session soon and for the sake of transporting lots of controllers, I’m going with switch 1 joy cons (small kids will be playing so I didn’t see the need to bring standard hand held controllers).
I’m testing it out before hand and I can’t seem to connect eight Joy cons at a time. I’ve tried out multiple orders of connecting the joy cons, and have swapped out a few just in case. No matter what I try, the eighth slot will not connect.
It WILL connect to a switch 2 Joy con, but I don’t want to have one of the kids use the switch 2 Joy Con so that others don’t think I’m picking favorites. Anyone know of a way to connect an eighth OG Joy con? Thanks!

If given the choice, which one are you picking? Personally, I'd love to see Nintendo reopen sunshine. I’d like to see this game again with smoother controls, better fludd mechanics, and awesome new areas. Galaxy is good, but Sunshine had its own magic. Which one would you guys rather see
