By OneTwoTee Go To PostBought a Switch last weekend with Smash and MK8. Ordered Odyssey as a Christmas present for myself. Any recommendations for games or even accessories? I tried the MH Generations demo because I liked World, but fuck me that is some janky shit.
Katamari Damacy is pretty cheap and still good.
Also crypt of the necrodancer is cheap right now, if you havent played it elsewhere.

Now I've got Odyssey, MK8 and Smash it's time to focus on some extra controllers and stuff. Won't be needing any games till they release Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion and a proper Pokemon RPG.
Finding a GameCube controller adapter is nearly impossible. Why the fuck does Nintendo makes so little units?

Smash Bros is great. Only thing I am not too keen on is leveling up spirits in the World of Light story mode. Classic mode is good fun though.
Been watching a lot of Smash Ultimate on twitch lately. I have no idea why.
Been keeping streams on while at work too lol

I have been watching a bit of Smash Bros on youtube. Just to get a better feel of the changes to some of the characters like ways to use Links new bomb. I feel like an old man when I go on twitch cause I just don't get the appeal.
There is so much content in Smash that I have probably played about 15 hours and I haven't seen all the stages yet. I would be very surprised if this isn't my most played game on the switch when I look back at the end of this generation. It has the best soundtrack in a game ever and that is not even an opinion it is a fact although it is kind of cheating since 700 of the songs come from other games.
I played a fair bit of FIFA 19. Absolutely love all the details and the commentary but I am finding the gameplay kind of boring. I need to work out how to skin people with ease or something. Morata keeps banging the goals in and he is never offside so it feels broken.
Also got Mario Party and the Raving Rabbids game but I haven't played them enough to pass judgement just yet.

Yeah can't believe nothing happened yet. Oh well.
Plant is pretty fun. Happy to see Sakurai actually released real patch notes

I ended up buying Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy X/X-2 and pre-ordering Final Fantasy XII on Switch. I’ve never played any of the Final Fantasy games before so I thought why not. I’m starting with Final Fantasy X since I got a few recommendations from people saying it’s one of the easier ones to understand the gameplay systems. It’s been great, but I pretty much hate Tidus.

IX is my favorite of that bunch. Then XII, X-2, X, and VII.
By Kibner Go To PostIf you hate Tidus, you may as well stop now. He doesn't improve.I can overlook his flaws as a character because the combat is pretty great, but I’m assuming the other games have better stories/characters. A lot of people have told me IX is their favourite, and XII is their second favourite.

I’m debating also buying Dark Souls Remastered and Dragon’s Dogma, I haven’t played DD but I have played DS and quit early on the 360.
By Flutter Go To PostI'm probably buying dragon's dogma todayI don’t know what the Switch version is like, but I played the PS3 version with the Hank frame rate and black bars and still enjoyed the fuck out of it. Really great game, been meaning to replay it for some time now.
My only complaints about Dragon’s Dogma on Switch so far is that when you’re just walking around, the camera feels so fucking close to the character. FOV on 45 on some shit.
I don’t remember what it was like on the PS3 aside from the awful black bars.

Finally decided to sort out my joy cons. Ordered those third party shells with the dpad, new analog sticks and metal clips so they'll never come loose from the console. Great console, pads are as shitty as dualshock 4's though for QC and being built like shit.
I've got 4 joy cons total, 3 have wonky sticks, and 2 have damaged clips so they come loose from the console.

Amazon also have them if that link is no bueno for you.

I also ordered a set of these v grips to make playing Dragon's Dogma a bit more comfortable on my right hand. I only plan to use the right sided one, but they were cheap, allows the switch to still be docked and the full cover ergo grip I usually see recommended seems to have vanished from Amazon.
A bit concerned about Fire Emblem, as the only Switch game I'm looking forward to.
The battalion stuff just looks bad, don't see what the problem was with the smaller scale battles. Hopefully the mechanics attached are decent at least, and not too finickity.

Dpad feels good, can’t say the same for the texture and QC of the shell. Might change it out for another colour/higher quality shell at some point. It’s matte, scuffs and scratches super easy and feels a bit rough.
The replacement analog sticks were a farce. Tried the first one and it was a dud. Didn’t bother with the second in the pack.
By Kibner Go To Postwell, at least the dpad is fine?Perfect, exactly what I wanted from it.
Good news is I’ve found a site that sells the OEM analog sticks, they’re double the price of the eBay shitters I bought but still a lot cheaper than buying new joycons.
Can’t find anywhere that sells the NES/SNES joycon shells though, I swear they used to on amazon. Might just go with the white front shells and blue/red original back shells.

So I think one of my Pro controllers has died. Just will not respond and it's definitely not due to me not charging it. Is this a common thing?
By Laboured Go To PostSo I think one of my Pro controllers has died. Just will not respond and it's definitely not due to me not charging it. Is this a common thing?No idea. Mine is still good.
By Laboured Go To PostSo I think one of my Pro controllers has died. Just will not respond and it's definitely not due to me not charging it. Is this a common thing?Try leaving it charging for couple hours. Are you using it after a while?
I've left it charging for a great many hours trying two different charge cables in two different charging ports.
Pleasantly surprised with these V grips. Super janky looking on the Switch, but also super comfy for using in handheld mode. Wouldn’t take them out the house, but I wouldn’t play the Switch outside anyway. 10 quid well spent.
Buy a new one, then send the broke one to me and I’ll fix it for myself.

60 with dips for RE4, 30 with bad frame pacing for REmake.
