    Portable batteries are pretty good if you don't have access to an outlet, and most planes and other forms of transportation have at least a usb port which will at least trickle power to it. When I flew from asia to US I played switch for 3 hours then napped and it was full for another play, or...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Weapons get better as you kill more enemies. So they will die faster and you will learn how to dodge/parry to make them easy enough on normal. Guardians you just need to plow through until you learn how to kill them. Reflecting their shot with shield if fastest way but it will cause you to learn...

    It sounds like the cable, if/when you replace it don't cheap out on the cable. The housing that connects the cable to the type c is important. Unfortunately just sounds like you got a bum one, or you pull out the cable to aggressively from your phone.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    When I got a thermostat, I pulled all the wires out the wall and found an unused one, since they were colored I went to the AC and just moved themwire to power then all went well. Feel bad for the next guy as that color is likely for something else. You and also trick it by using the "fan only"...

    Anyone know about Telescopes? Shopping for wife?

    As far as performance, the Skyprodigy will have better resolution. A 5" mirror will gather more light and the f/5 ratio will make up for flaws the optics may have, although it is hard to miss-figure a sub 6" optic so it should be good no matter what. Seems like the price is right with the better...

    Anyone know about Telescopes? Shopping for wife?

    Sounds like it will either be a big "I told you so" or she loves astronomy. Very worst, give it to a teenage kid to spy on neighbors or something.

    Anyone know about Telescopes? Shopping for wife?

    If you get one with a auto-tracker, you have to be able to track the 20 brightest stars to align it (needing 3-4 to get it to work). If she isn't willing to do even that much effort, buy her a nice book with the images as they will be layered (in multiple colors) and have long exposures so it...

    Anyone know about Telescopes? Shopping for wife?

    Not going to get into specifics, but I used to make/manufacture telescopes. That one isn't bad for a main stream model. Longer F ratio usually males up for low quality optics, and eyepiece are small enough its generally hard to mess those up, especially with a 4" mirror. Good for saying you can...

    To many metroid titles, despite my love for the series they haven't put out a good one in a while so doubt they make 2 at once. Also Donkey Kong by not retro seems weird with how last 2 sold. Hope it is real but doubtful.

    If you pulled your head out of your ass long enough to see that the things aren't sitting on every shelf all over the world. Despite your precious feelings, if you came to reality you would see there is demand despite anything you say. Please find me where I can buy the switch online and in...

    Yes, because you been right on everything so far, despite the long lines still in Japan when Switches are available, and the supply constraints due to using mobile hardware. All the huge demand only can give signs to 3rd parties are at least talking about it and they don't talk about releases...

    All this transparency is confusing, needs more Trump-like smoke and mirrors and a_skeleton_03 can play Sean Spicer.

    Interesting. That was posted back in march so hopefully they fixed it and is why I haven't seen it yet. Played about 50 hours on the switch version.

    Maybe its a cost/benefit that Nintendo doesn't want to dish money out for as they believe there are enough people like myself that don't care about it, or that there are plans in the works to allow local saving of data, but they are working on making it harder to pirate software before they give...

    I don't care about saves, if the game is worth playing and is fun why would it ruin you experience to play a good game again? Would cloud saves be nice, I guess, but not enough for me to care especially if the game is fun and worth playing again. I can delete my BotW save right now and when hard...

    So someone else doesn't like Nintendo, glad you have an internet friend. Why does me liking something offend you so much. Read my previous post, Nintendo isn't for you since the 90's or so and will never be for you again. Why care so much about trashing something you isn't marketed for you?

    Binding of Isaac doesn't lag on switch, been playing it quite a bit and haven't noticed slowdowns. Or are you talking about something you don't own again?

    My biggest mistake was going down the shithole that is talking to you, you keep trying to justify other things being better, ignoring the fact that others like something and you being insistent that I shouldn't like something I like. I will admit that I shouldn't have tried to get you to...

    You're a faggot, got it. Must be real fun to talk with when someone's opinion doesn't match your own. I'll just keep enjoying something that you don't, which was my original point. Why give so much fucks for something you don't give a shit about. Nintendo isn't going to be what they were in the...

    How about you leave the thread and never hear from me again. I want you to bring a point that makes me change my mind, but until I see one I will continue to think my money is well spent and fully enjoy what Nintendo has to offer. Please refute the differences in Xbox gold vs switch online...

    And the free monthly game "with newly added online play" to those games, does Xbox give new content or just shovel same ol game with no updates?

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Why do you care about saves so much? You must realize by now I don't care about a lot of these "they don't have this in 2017" things you seem to be so passionate about. Also, for example, xbox gold is $10 a month and that comes with 2 games a month as long as you have subscription. Switch is...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    #1 and 2 have been barely discussed and are still under development so you are assuming what they said in March is the same with no improvements. And if I recall, it is one game a month with multiplayer/online support, not that it just vanishes after a month. If it does vanish we will have to...

    So you complaining about perceived value of the switch, some which find value and some that don't. I can claim the XBone is overpriced as well and play the games cheaper and better on my PC. You are arguing about how cheap one thing is and how great value is another. Judging by the millions that...

    Dodging the question like a professional. Will wait for your reasoning to have discussion instead of you being a closet homo and hating on the gays, err, the Splatoon boxes

    Why do you care about the boxes so much? If you own Nintendo stock you should be happy because it equals more revenue. If you don't own stock then why care it doesn't effect you. There is a 0% chance it is taking resources from making more hardware or software and it will provide a niche crowd...

    I believe its like Eventide Island, IMO the best part of the game, and when you finish the master sword is always glowing. Can still break but much stronger. Hopefully that along with hard mode will make the game more challenging and replayable.

    I know! It's like part 1 of a 2 part dlc. Part 2 will be new story and more content.

    You are more than welcome to not buy their stuff, but I do enjoy what I have and seen coming available. Comes across like beating a dead horse at this point and keep telling people to not buy their stuff doesn't help. Believe it or not, I like what Nintendo does and will continue to buy their...

    We get it, you hate Nintendo. Can you please stop shitting up a thread you have zero interest in. How about leave until 2018 when you can complain about the library doesn't have COD 6 or any other of the same boring shooters.

    You can get the roms from your favorite torrent in about 10 minutes if you do 16 bit era and earlier. newer stuff you may have to do other things beyond. if you want to hand pick romps go to vimm.net, they are pretty organized and I never got a bad ROM there.

    I followed the retropie instructions and had it working in a few hours, I would upload roms (all NES, Snes, and genesis) and it all worked out of the Box. I got the pie, a case, and SD card for like $70 total when Microsoft sold a bundle. Very plug and play and I have 2500 games or so on it...
