I've SWITCHed! - General discussion - WARNING IN POST 1

Does anyone know if it's possible to transfer e-shop funds from one account to another on the Switch? I added funds using a gift card thingie but added them to my own account by mistake.

Not sure if its possible to transfer funds, but if its on the same switch cant all users play the same software no matter the account the game was brought on?

Yep but unfortunately he wants to buy something in Fortnite on his account. I forgot that the funds are account specific and I that I could've added the gift card funds from his account. Ah well lesson learned. Thanks anyway.

Now this is just cruel:

I still reminisce over F-Zero GX.

Strong rumours about a revised Switch next year. That would certainly be a kick in the teeth for early adopters.

The key point is that third party developers would not be required to make their game run on the original Switch.

All rumour of course!

If that turned out to be true it would be a terrible decision. I'd be very surprised if they did that. An upgraded switch will happen eventually but having a 2 tiered system would split the player base.

Peer Schneider shot it down, and Marcus has since deleted the tweet.

It all seems very un-Nintendo to be honest. It would be very anti consumer to alienate the user base this early into the console's life.

Very interesting choice of words from Marcus here. Could have easily just admitted misinformation.

He just wants to put in a way that makes it seem 'industry' like, when in reality he knows absolutely **** all and never has done.

Seemed like nonsense, but you can repeat the phrase "revised Switch" annually and eventually you'll be right, doesn't make you a genius or an insider, just playing statistics and likelihoods.

Bah, starting to get a bit of drift on my left joy con. It's not massive, but it just seems to be slow coming back to centre, or will slowly turn left. It's over a year old now, so I'm sure I'll have to have a fight with Nintendo over it.

Likewise, mine just started to happen the last 2 days or so. If you go into calibrate you can see it jittering left.

Started to go through the service centre repair website, didn't recognise address, told me to call/email, gave up 😂

Bandai Namco are some nuts company at times. Not only did they announce Dark Souls Trilogy will be releasing on PS4 and Xbox the same day as Dark Souls Remastered for Switch, but they announce the trilogy won't be coming to Europe despite announcing it.....in Europe.

Mr E

Well this is pretty good. If you're looking for a game to play, check out the Switcher games database....

You can search by game, single/multi player, couch co-op, genre (including subgenres like Metroidvania, Roguelite, Roguelike, Bullet Hell, Twin Stick etc.)
Obviously you still need to do a bit of research to see if the game(s) are any good, but it's a good starting point.

I found that database from an article they did about Switch tax. Very interesting read.

Anyone have any experience with Senta micro SD cards? I see a 256gb card for £28 on Amazon but there's zero info on the company, user reviews, etc. on the net. Seems sketchy...

You usually get what you pay for when it comes to this type of media

Switch is continuing to put up great numbers out east.

I wouldn't bother. Stick with known brand. Heard too many horror stories where the size is reporting as much larger than it is. I see 256gb as low at 50-60 generally with Amazon for Samsung/Sandisk during offer periods.

Did anyone get morphies law?

Mr E

Nah, got Bad North this week instead.

I'll let Morphies Law bed down for a little while and see (a) if it gets popular and (b) if the devs keep supporting it by adding new maps.
It's going to live or die by the community, and I think there are only 4 maps in the launch version.

Yea seems to be four maps and three gamemodes.

Mr E

Splatoon started small and exploded, so it looks like they have a similar strategy.

A few reviews I watched said the net code is a little wonky at the minute and a good few of the games didn't seem to get the full 8 so I'd be a little worried the player base would fall away.

Mr E

The developers submitted a patch on release day, so a fix is coming.

Edit: woops wrong thread.

Picked up Darkest Dungoen with all dlcs last night. My third platform now. :pac:

First game I bought since horrible xenoblade chronicles 2.

Really works well on switch. Too well... its was 3:20 in the morning by the time I decided to check actual time!! Great, 5h left to sleep before 12h shift.

I'm very new to the switch, it's a present for my son and want to have everything right. How many wired controllers cam be used at the one time please? Some of the games I've bought are 2 player games and I'd like to have the controllers got but I'm not buying 2 wireless ones at €70 each 😉 the girl in smyths thought only one wired controller could be used

You can use the Joycons seperately so you'll have two controllers out of the box.
