New joy-con anyone?

hi, does anyone have issues with the left joycon, any fix recommendations besides sending it back to SG for warranty?

Hoard a bunch of amiibos, some could go as cheap as 30 or even lower. Standard price is like rm60 or slightly above. And yes some amiibos are rare and it could go up to RM80 or higher.

Do you guys get the scratches when you dock?

Good hint. Where did you get the physical copy from?

Unfortunately the coupon can only be used once per item. Means you'll have to spend on 10 items in 3 months to fully benefit from the 100 voucher. I only used 2 so far.

there's only option up to 4 players in the game menu

Looks like a normal exercise routine to me haha!

Also the hopes of Pokemon Stars coming to the Switch is still there. Just because they deny Ultra isn't coming doesn't mean Stars won't make it either. Another remake would be fine as well. Looks like they are milking a lot lately on the Pokemon franchise anyway, might as well milk it more.

Just waiting if Nintendo is planning for a successor for the 3ds or just stick with the Switch. If no successor for sure the mainline Pokemon game will come at some point.

for real.

Have you seen Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild running in 4K? The graphics and texture assets are just up-ressed from the stock graphics, and it looks magnificent in 4K. I've tested it on the emulator (CEMU), but the ever changing nature of emulator and requirement to download updated versions of the emulator, needs to retweak. But the fact is, assets already present inside the game is beautiful enough for the game to run by increasing the resolution. The same principle with 3DS and its Citra emulator, the only thing holding it back is the pathetic hardware inside the 3DS itself. Move those assets to Switch and you have the same effect as you've seen there. Games these days running on emulators are developed with graphics engine with in-game quality toggles already built-in, all you need is to enable them on different hardware.

That's the technical side of it, but judging from the reaction of Nintendo fans (here and elsewhere), they'll even take the game at 240p as it is, and even then, running it rendered at 240p, and blowing it up to 720 screen on the switch, would already show huge improvement over the shitty screen of the 3DS.

You dont understand, this isn't PORTING, this is up-resolution. You use the same game asset and running it at higher resolution. No changes or extra work need to be done on the original game assets. Sure, you can troubleshoot and debug to make sure everything works, but as exemplified by Capcom with its MHXX "port" (if you wanna call that a port), that process doesn't take long. In MHXX's case, they're doing extra work on the game assets (improving geometry, adding texture details, etc), but the process I described is up-resolution. It's literally running the same game at higher resolution. That's what the image I linked meant, it's thesame game, but in the case of 3DS, the resulting image is downgraded to fit into the poor 3DS 240p screen.

This isn't about asking for a new Pokemon (not a remake, refresh, or a port of the current shitty 240p ones), this is about using the SAME game and uprezzing it. That Citra emulator image is proof, the emulator is not doing anything other than running the game at a higher resolution, using THE SAME ASSETS. Optimizing the game to run on the Switch? The game literally runs on 240p on the 3DS, and how many times more powerful is the Switch compared to the paltry 3DS? Even running that same same at 480p would've resulted in improvement already, good enough to put it on eShop for sale. TRY that Citra emulator, to get what I mean. I've tested LoZ BOTW WiiU running on emulator on my gaming PC, all I did was turn a few toggles in to run the game at 4K, using THE SAME GAME ASSETS, and the results are stunning. There are trickeries here, there are no SPECIAL VERSIONS of the game that has higher texture or better geometric details, it's the SAME GAME running at higher resolution.

You're sacrificing your eyeballs for the sake of portability, in this case, being able to play Pokemon portably but having to suffer through 240p 3DS image quality, when the game can scale up further to better resolution, USING THE SAME GAME ASSETS. Now, with the Switch, you have the option of running portably at a much more palatable 720p, is that bad? I have the original Nvidia Shield Portable, and running emulators on those is a dream, and that's running on a less capable hardware than the Switch.

This is also to alleviate the concern about games being separated by two platforms instead of one (3DS ONLY instead of both 3DS and Switch). Like I mentioned earlier, people have sold their 3DSes to fund for their Switech, also under the pretext that Nintendo had said to them that they're "unifying mobile and home platforms into a single platform". That's what the Switch promise is.......that's what they're banking on when Nintendo claimed that. See what happens now? Most early adopters are the hardest of hardcore Nintendo fans, and see how Nintendo treated them? I think even a mention of the games "coming soon" to Switch would've alleviate that feeling of betrayal that these Switch players felt about that Pokémon announcement.

Take it as "virtual console" then. Or "emulation". The Switch is bursting at the seam with so much processing power, you seriously think emulating a 240p 3DS games is difficult?

I am getting left joycon issue and i have not noticed it. Guess i have to buy Pro controller. Is it worth to buy?

Most nintendo games yeah pre-ordered. I really like the game during test punch, definitely must have. Although I think Splatoon 2 is gonna be better and etc, but this game deserve a purchase. Not a bad new IP by Nintendo.

yeah.. me too. Lazy to drive there just for the RM10 voucher.
Maybe I'll just buy from the eStore. Lazy switching the game cards.

what's so special about the yellow joycon? just the colour?

and you need 2nd joycons for ARMS wrestling
