If anybody would have any interest in a V1 Switch with no dock (Switch w/ joy-con + Power Cable) shoot me a PM.

It’s the launch version of the Switch that can be modded / jail broken.

Heads up if you're going to get Monster Hunter Rise, Amazon has the preorder up for $10 off the regular price for some reason.

Probably won't be like that for long, get it while it's hot!

Some good first party switch games that hardly ever go on sale are going on sale for 30$ off. Good opportunity to pick any of them up if you are interested.

I finally got into BOTW after starting the game multiple times since launch on the Wiiu and never got far at all. After about 30 hours this week I have 1 beast down and the map uncovered along with a bunch of seeds and shrines. I'm going to do a final push this weekend to at least beat it and see if it can keep my attention longer but i'm surprised I have made it this far as I rarely am able to keep playing a game without switching.

I have to think I would be further along if I actually liked riding the horses but its so bad that I just don't I walk/run everywhere and now with all the towers unlocked can at least fast travel a bunch. Cooking in this game is interesting but the lack of a cookbook drives me crazy but after figuring out the basics its not terrible and I understand why they have such a crappy cooking design. If you could just click cook multiple like many games your food stockpile would be so large that you could just pause/eat and almost never die.

Looking at the map I just recently noticed the hero mode which shows the entire path you took throughout the game and you can even play it and watch where you have gone on the map and when you die (which is often for me for some reason) I hope I can keep up this focus and actually beat some games from my backlog.

At the least, you can look at food you've got in your inventory to double check the recipe if you want more. Otherwise food is very similar to weapons where they always feel in short supply. You're cycling through all your weapons and food regularly, which I've come to appreciate.

There are a couple of special ingredients for stamina, health, stealth, temperature resistance, etc. Then you mix and match. I think there is s point where you get diminishing returns for adding more of the special ingredients.

Yeah once I got the hang of cooking it wasn't terrible just tedious. Weapons could last a little longer IMO or at least a bank that I can store good weapons in because getting all of the seeds is a little crazy also.

I finished the game this weekend and was grossly over prepared, I decided to just go take a look at Gannon with what I had on me which wasn't much and beat him with little effort. I switched to another game on Sunday and found myself wanting to go back and either play on Master Mode or something I never do and 100% it. Aiming bows with motion controls is super underrated and I think it should be a standard option for any game on any console. Considering checking it out on CEMU at 4k with RTS and reshade as it looks amazing.

Technically you can store some weapons at the house you can buy in Hateno, but that's not much!

I've played before and for some reason unknown to me when I left the Shrine of Resurrection I walked right by the chests and played with no clothes until the first town when I bought some.

I'm bad at games in my old age, lol.

I started a Master Mode playthrough which is more challenging, brought my switch to work to play during lunch and Master Mode is not available without an internet connection . . . has to verify the account that bought the dlc. Thats pretty annoying.

Anyone else tried the demo of the new Hyrule Warriors Zelda? My first time playing this style of game. Very different from a typical Zelda. It's like a fast-paced, Michael Bay version of BOTW. Not a game I would play if it weren't set in the Zelda world, but it is a fun addition to that world and cool to have another way to enjoy that world. I don't see it having much long-term replay value to me, but a nice interlude between BOTW1 and BOTW2.

You've gotta be kidding me. I kinda get it with the Switch Online NES and SNES games, but this a DLC you purchased to your account can't be verified once?

Is it possible that you've got two Switches and you took the secondary one to work? I don't, but I recall reading this a while back:
