Happy to know Switch so far, is a success. Looks like the 5 millions Superbowl ad was money well spent. Now Nintendo needs to buck up on its supply. BTW, whenever I read comments on sites like Gematsu, Siliconera, Kotaku, Gamespot etc, there are always people who try to make every news on Switch is nothing, try to remind others that it's a subpar console.. I know they do not represent the whole gaming community but it's really ridiculous how hard they try to blame Nintendo for everything.

You should stick to like Nintendo Life mostly. More real Nintendo fans there. There are trolls there too but easy to differentiate.

Those so called true gamers are angry when Ninty stopped the production of NES Classic but at the same time, they wish Switch will fail. Suprisingly, Gbatemp also have many Nintendo haters. They don't have any qualms about hoping for Nintendo downfall, which I hope will never happen.

If the toys were cheaper, I would have bought 'em. But the price is too much just to get some special items, no thanks to our currency exchange rate. I could understand people using this as other means to get the locked items. That Wolf looks so cool!

Purchase Mario Kart 8 & Puyo Puyo Tetris today via eshop. MK is so fun! Puyo Puyo haven't tried yet. Tutup mata saja bayar (^_-)

Balik kampung recently and I really like how easy it is to put the dock inside my bag because of its compact size & simple boxy design. Nothing jutted out here & there. Had fun playing MK8DX with my family. Totally puas hati!

Yeah, Nintendo said they won't have any press conference during E3, not skipping it totally. I also got confused. But it's a good news for us

i also have the same issue. super weak wifi connection. need to take the NS into handheld mode and sit next to the modem to have constant connection.

at the moment using unifi 30mbps. other devices connected just fine

Balik kampung last week, I used YES 4G Huddle Mobile Hotspot to connect my Switch to the net. It showed 2 bars at most but connection was stable. Switch was in the living room, and Huddle inside my room. It managed to download Mario Kart 8 Deluxe & Puyo Puyo Tetris files at acceptable speed but had to make sure no one else was using the line too. MK8 online play was smooth, except for the known 'connection error'. At home, we're on Streamyx 4MB. Modem inside the room, everything else is outside. Also no problem so far. Maybe some units have problems like yours. You should send it back to Maxsoft since it's still under warranty.

How would you play Ultra Street Fighter II on the Switch? Like this?

I'd rather slit my throat than be seen doing this. Do the motion moves on the controller or kill me already.

Looks like a normal exercise routine to me haha!

Never knew people do Shoryukens and Hadoukens in their aerobics routine. That gay arm swing......maybe. Or maybe that Shoryuken move is a gamer's way of shyly showing how small their arm muscles are infront of the gym mirror, you know.....as how those bodybuilders/fitness freaks flex themselves like a peacock infront of the mirror after each set? tongue.gif
*
You know, aerobics got more wild & creative moves I bet they could easily beat people in this game. Awww c'mon, just pretend like you are exercising, lol!

BTW, ARMS is set to be another successful new IP from Nintendo. Some of Youtubers' reactions to Twintelle are damn hilarious. She is the Nicki Minaj of ARMS. I think I'm gonna pick Bark & Byte simply because I got a dog as my sidekick!

But I'm more hyped for Splatoon 2! I want to play single player mode. Blame Nintendo for their Marie & Callie story. Genius of them to turn the Splatfest as a starting point. I hope Nintendo will let us choose on whose side we want to be. Prepare for civil war....

Haizz... As much as I want it, I don't plan on buying from scalpers. Hopefully got rezeki from other places can still buy it.

Keep the conspiracy theories coming... It's fun to read while waiting for the games to be released biggrin.gif

I myself have never played MH. Maybe I should try the demo on eShop to see if it's my kind of game.

Please la.. Not everyone can afford Switch. Of course they still want to support 3DS and the upcoming new 2DS. I dunno why is it wrong for them to support both since DS is still highly sought after. Want Nintendo to become like Sony ka, abandon Vita mcm illegitimate child saja.. And why so sour about the latest Direct? I personally think it is too early to get a new Pokemon after SunMoon. You people think creating game so easy ka? Give their employees some break la aiyooo...

Wow, I can't believe how excited everyone is just seeing that Metroid Prime logo, LOL! I feel like it even steals the limelight from MHW on PS4. Oh well, never played both games but I'm happy for those who have been waiting for the games.

Anybody got this error 2005 - 0003 when downloading stuff ?    My switch keep getting this error when downloading games ,updates or demo . Sometimes 99% then this error happens . My wifi quota keep getting Wasted >.< . I got a 256gb sd card inside the switch ,

I read that it has something to do with the sd card. Try using a different card & download again.

QUOTE(alvinchm @ Sep 14 2017, 02:18 PM)
anyone know where can i buy the switch with instalment payment?

You could try 11th Street or lazada. I think they have installment plans for electronic products. Or you could also try physical shops. Phone them up first & ask, rather than wasting time going there.

Maybe this could help you to decide..

Best case would be having the following 5 region acc:
US - main account & collect gold points from physical games
US States w/o sales tax:-
Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire& Oregon

JP - some of games that not being localized (MH XX) & Demo
EU (UK) - just for Demo (release earlier due to time zone)
EU (Norway) - some games are priced cheaper
Mexico - same as Norway where games are priced cheaper. In some cases, cheaper by 50% (even when not on sales)

Now that credit/debit card owners can buy games without the need to add fund, I wonder whether it is still necessary for us to create multiple accounts. Previously, multiple accounts are needed because funds balances cannot be carried over when we change country setting.
