okay guys, i can confirm that truegamers are taking all the amiibos that are gift from the maxsoft bundle for wii switch and sell them separately.

u can scroll down the link below and see all 5 of the amiibo figures of animal crossings that are gifted to preorders of switch elsewhere.

i will boycott them for sure next time.

they sell also the cheapest amiibo figures, guess they just took all the units bundled by the distributor and sell them separately. fair enough since they didn't state it in the site description, but still, i could have chosen other stores and got the 3 free gifts (KYo, JT Stores)

Everybody posted their Switch pictures, I also want la

Zelda Update also includes DLC. Can buy straight from main menu.

Tried my USB Type C - Anker & Huawei - both NOT working with the switch. Tried the included Pro Controller USB Type C - working with iPad/iPhone 12W Charger.

Tried using Xiaomi 20,000mah powerbank + Pro Controller USB Type C, it can charge the Switch, but it can't charge the Pro Controller... Weird...

While the console is receiving power, it will also charge the docked joy-cons, it will stop charging the joy cons when you remove the power supply.

my guess would be instead of distributing console system intended for US and repackage it with adapter that compatible with local plug like what they did with 3ds, they just distributed the system intended for EU as the plug already match and less need to repackage. this is possible because switch is region free unlike 3ds.
btw, the reason why it's German text instead of French, Spanish or Italian because Nintendo of Europe HQ is in Germany.

Impulse JB and yes 3 free amiibos

Quick update, using Xiaomi Powerbank (20k mah version) and the Pro Controller's USB Type C, i can play zelda and charge the joy cons for 40mins so far and the console battery life stays at 100%. Seems like I have no issues in using the Xiaomi powerbank for extended plays outside.

Anyone having problems posting screenshots to Facebook? I keep having an error: 2801-7199. Twitter works fine though...

Created Switch specific Gmail accounts just to make a Nintendo account for UK and JP each. *forgotten what my old accounts I used for Wii, plus they're just for checking out extra content anyway, not for purchasing anything* tongue.gif

Downloaded free demo of Snipperclips from US eShop, DragonQuest and PuyoPuyo Tetris demos from JPN eShop.

Also weighing options for portable powerbanks. So far the only promising ones are either USB-PD (Power Delivery) certified ones like the RAVPower USB-PD 26,800mAh powerbank (available now), the Razer 10,800mAH powerbank (also USB-PD, but not released yet), or powerbanks with power plugs on them, like the Omnicharge Omni 13 or RAVPower Powerstation. Was playing LoZ:BOTW while being plugged to the AuKey 20,000 mAh powerbank, but the Switch was trickle-charged so slowly that it went to sleep mode until charged back in dock. Turns out, the Switch's charger uses USB-PD profile to "negotiate" charging request of up to 39W (15V 2.6A) in dock mode, and 15W (5V 3A) in portable mode. These power profiles are specific to the Switch, and very few powerbanks or external 3rd party chargers support these charing profiles. DO NOT charge them using any powerbanks with Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0 or any other power delivery profiles like AiCharge for the Aukey powerbanks and such, it will either not charge or charge very slowly, or worse, damage your Switch because of the rapid power request "negotiated" from these profiles.

Until then, looks like we're stuck with 3 hours battery life until someone does a deeper dive on the power charging profile the Switch needs and match it with specific charging device(s), other than the official Nintendo charger of course.

Also, charging using your current powerbank with USB-A-to-USB-C cable means you're restricted by the lower power delivery profile of USB-A (the old standard USB) of 12W (5V 2.4A). To avoid this, you need a USB-C-to-USB-C cable to bypass that power restriction. To makes things complicated, not all USB cables are made equal, need to refer to Google's Benson Leung for cables that are manufactured properly to meet certification to deliver the full up-to 100W (20V 5A) power delivery so that you dont fry your Switch with faulty USB-C cable. Link for more info: https://www.engadget.com/2016/02/03/benson-...sb-type-c-test/

there's even a "Benson Approved" USB-C cable site that links to Amazon on which cables meets certification of not frying your devices. http://bensonapproved.com

To users here, the safest route would be Apple's USB-C-to-USB-C cable, also widely available here locally, although the price isn't cheap. And you can thank the proliferation of cheap China-made cables for this mess. When manufacturing made without standards, quality control or guidelines, other than just to "make it work", this is what you get.

EDIT: Also, I dont see the option to move installation option to SD card, the "Storage" setting is so bare. Unless I miss something..... got a 200GB card in there.

Gamer Nexus just posted these 11 minutes ago, including a close look at the battery.

I have 2 question:
1. What is the details of Impulse voucher?
E.g. Is it RM10 x 10 limited to one transaction?
Applicable to Sunway branch only?
2. Is it doable:
Buy a tablet screen protector and apply myself?
or does anyone know where to buy this?
Tempered Glass for Nintendo Switch

Sadly, there is no eshop for Malaysia. One good thing is now some credit cards can be used in US eshop.

Is the Pro Controller better than DualShock 4 and Xbox One?
Reddit says it works out of box on PC... Maybe grabbing this instead of the whole Switch lel
