My son just sent me his Switch Bundle. Probably 1K worth of shit. He had everything. OLED. This thing is so fun. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with the DLC tracks is so fun. Had no idea handhelds were this advanced now. I just started Zelda Breath of the Wild. I also picked up the subscription so i can play all those older nintendo games.
I would buy the switch just for each of those two things.
BOTW and all the retro Nintendo system games make it incredible.

Im looking forward to playing some of the old mario 2d games. I loved some of the Nintendo 64 stuff also. Was playing pilot wings the other day and it reminded me of my son being born. This is a really neat that this device plays all that stuff.

ive played like 12 hours or so and have barely progressed at all just messing around. Open world does not disappoint and the sandbox elements are turned up to 11. I still do hope theres traditional dungeons and more core zelda stuff on top of that but i havent explored enough yet to find out. Have done zero plot outside of the tutorial island that is basically the great plateau v2
Runs at 60fps on emulator if you have a beefy pc. In the one town ive been in it drops to like 40 and basically goes slowmo but thats the price for a superior experience everywhere else lol

I don't care about frame rate or emulators or any of that stuff. I don't have the patience for that kind of stuff to learn how to download the right links and whatever that I need to run the right kind of stuff. My computer isn't that sophisticated to where even if I get the right stuff, I don't have the best or optimal specs to run it the most efficiently. At this point, it will probably run better on my switch than on the current computer I have.
I don't let that stuff get in the way of me enjoying a game unless it is incredibly janky (like the newer Pokemon games) and even then, I am still able to enjoy video games I want to enjoy. I'm going to wait to play it the way it was meant to be played at midnight tonight. Please don't spoil anything because you are playing a leaked version of the game.

Playing Goldeneye on my switch handheld OLED gaming device made by Nintendo and its so much fun. So happy with the sub service.
I should really sub to that. I don't think I've played Goldeneye since when it was new.
Graphics are rough but you get to see how far we have advanced. Tap in to good memories. Probably 15 games in the N64 library download. Im going to download the remastered Crysis series. Pay for it. Its supposed to be amazing on switch. I have never FPS on a handheld before. Loved that game on the same level as Half Life.

Only minor spoilers from the first couple hours.
Already stayed up past what I was planning to. This game is already insane. The difficulty level is jumped up. They really worked on these shrines. Fuse is fun as hell, you never know what you can stick together as a weapon until you try (and what they name these things is ridiculous, like the long-stick stick). Ultrahand is very tedious at the beginning, especially trying to get things the right way up. It is hard getting myself out of using the up arrow to using L to switch abilities. That is a pain. Otherwise, this game is incredible. Gonna get some sleep and play more tomorrow.
Major initial story spoiler (READ AT YOUR OWN RISK)

are the weapons as frail as the first game? When you fuse them does the new weapon start at 100%
Yes, and no respectively. The weapons are still frail, and fusing a new weapon does not reset it's durability. The durability is combined, but it only adds to the base weapon, not the item that is fused to it (based on my experiences so far).
In short, if the durability fails, then combining a new weapon or item to it does not reset it's durability. It just changes the attack power.
