Personally I'd be embarrassed to be caught in public playing 1 2 Switch or Just Dance than be seen holding a Neon Switch in public. Ghey or otherwise.

Actually the embarrassment is part of the fun with some of these social games. Nice ice breaker with friends, and teaches us to laugh at ourselves more (Something I find is disappearing more and more these days in Malaysian society, everyone super sensitive).

Keyword: perception. If colorful JoyCons can be construed as llama or ghey just by their colors alone, the same can be said about games like 12Switch milking cows or dancing with JoyCons in Just Dance. One perception for another perception. I was all in on the waggle during the WiiU days, until game devs uses waggle as more of a gimmick than anything that progresses gameplay mechanics. Also, I treat games like 12Switch and Just Dance as an extension of what free2play games are on mobile.
*
Yup agreed. Also mentioned somewhere earlier, Switch is great because it is a different machine to different users, so quite flexible to use as one sees fit.

As for perception, I have also learnt that we can never please everyone. Better to be happy, and not worry to much about what others think of us (beyond what is reasonable)

After reading some comments on 12switch, I think it is actually a fun game to bring together friends & family. Even those who are blind can play it. Who would have expected that.
*
Yup also read the article blind couple playing Switch and enjoying. Amazing.

You see if they are gonna tell me i don't own other console, handhelds and game on pc, they can bring it on. Aku semua ship aku jump lol. Best of everything. It's just sad seeing those who doesn't own one talking shit about it and missing out. While those who own it are mostly happy and enjoying it. I only game with wired headphones, so not a big issue at least.

Sikit lagi, can get master sword haha

That's the danger of being closed to new things/ideas. Those who are more open to new experiences will benefit. I do feel though that since social media has taken over, 'hater' sentiment is becoming more common place, a bit sad.


QUOTE(9926 @ Mar 9 2017, 04:26 PM)
finally i managed to read through most of the comment in this thread, feel so tempted to buy the switch, but i feel the price is a bit high, is there any chance that they will sell the console without bundle with the game, at a cheaper price?
*
It is early days, and there is a lot of excitement around the Switch. Hopefully after some time, console only deals will appear, it is certainly very possible. Also hoping that in the longer run, Nintendo will also realise that they have a mega hit on their hands and reduce console price, to cement their market share. For now though, it is still the sellers dictating things.


Side note:
Just saw this KOF98 on YouTube by coincidence, is it already available? https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/aca-n...hters-98-switch

Wii have few nice gundam games. especially SD gundam series, pray one day bandai namco bring SD gundam series to switch. icon_rolleyes.gif

They should bring Virtual On to Switch, the controls are perfect.

Also, this Transformers game just announced looks quite cool too http://shoryuken.com/2017/03/13/transforme...n-april-5-2017/

Nintendo Swith sales expectation almost meet with what Nintendo expected for the first month.

Good, first part is done on Nintendo's part. First party titles seem on track. Hopefully third party developers will jump in, seeing good sales numbers.

Better than Disney, overproduction lead to them having to outright shutdown their Disney Infinity franchise.

"Infinity had also hit a number of production problems along the road. The franchise's 1.0 figures sold out - which caused Disney to freak out about lost sales - so its 2.0 range was overproduced. 2m Hulk toys were reportedly made. Only 1m were ever sold."

Yup, we must remember also, Nintendo were probably nervous about Switch, after WiiU, hard to predict whether it was going to be hit or miss. Thankfully, a hit so far, so hopefully they will ramp up production.

Finished zelda botw.
Who bought Bomberman? How terrible is that game? Considering to get it but too expensive.
*
I bought Bomberman.

In my opinion, the initial games are to highlight the different ways to enjoy Switch. Bomberman is to highlight multiplayer beyond two player, where it becomes quite fun. Bought it to play with nephews and nieces, who are younger.

Unless you're looking for a party game with lots of players, probably better off waiting for other games.

The Bomberman game actually looks fine. If you wanna compare with the old game, the new one has more content than the old, and i heard lots of stuff are bigger too. It's just our nostalgia thing kicking in tongue.gif
*
Yup, I enjoyed it tremendously. At the same time, the games are quite expensive, rivalling big budget studio releases, so some might prefer to spend elsewhere.

Wonder if Nintendo will introduce some tier pricing system for physical games, although the eShop already has variable pricing.

Perhaps he got confused with digital purchases, which are tied to the user account.

I think it's the saved data that can't be transfer was the one that I read.

So there is hope to sell my Zelda since got people here bought NS only without a single game bundled.

Brand new system, so lots of info to absorb. That's why this thread is useful, so many experts to help us out.

There definitely is a hardware issue apparently. Some people can send it for replacement controller, not sure about Malaysia.

Also apparently the newer controllers may have already be fixed at source.

Yup sorry, repaired, not replaced. Wonder what our options are, seems like a hassle to send by post. Wonder if some local shops will be able to do the repair as it seems simple.

You guys should get the Lego City Undercover game, it's a pretty good game last time I played on the Wii U. Should be the same on Switch.

Sorta like GTA but ur a cop instead, so not a total baddy in the game. Really fun game with a good story.

Thanks. Saw the trailer and it looks fun.

My baby said hi to u guys..  😄 .. Damn i just destroyed my tempered glass when i,m applying it just now.. Now i,m scared.. Only one left.. Any suggestion guys?

Have to be relaxed, and be systematic and organised. Do everything step by step.

Align the screen protector properly, and make use of the alignment guide stickers (this helps me a lot). Only after that is done, take off the film from the glass protector, and place nicely.

This video does roughly that, but there are many others https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUwxr998kLg

Good luck.
