Okay well thank you for posting about how extremely not surprised you are by the pedophile game for pedophiles. Next time I think about criticizing pedophilia I will check to make sure whether or not it's surprising.

Hey everyone, I have been considering getting a Switch for a bit now, probably taking the dive soon. I was wondering about all of the available accessories though, if you can help me out. I will probably use this 80+% in docked/console mode, and I am particularly wondering about controllers needed for 2 player co-op.

At least initially I am looking at: Splatoon2, Mario Kart, and Fire Emblem Warriors.

Mario Kart looks like I only need one pair of joycon to make that work, but are those cheap steering wheels a good addition?

For those, and just general use, is a second set of joycon or a pro controller a better investment? Anything else I should be strongly considering?

Pro controller, spare USB-C charger, and carrying case are what I'd recommend. A microSD card too if you're doing digital purchases.

People were wondering recently about not receiving a survey for Octopath Traveler. I was just looking at info on it through the Switch and it says that you'll receive a survey if you have opted into emails (I think through the Nintendo eShop).
I can't find any such option in the eShop itself, does anyone know where it is? For future possible surveys mostly I mean.

Inti announced a Switch version some time ago. Can't blame you for not knowing, Nintendo has been absolutely silent about it.

I thought that was going to be something new rather than just another Gal Gun.

You might be thinking of the Senran Kagura game for the Switch, which is apparently a pervy massage/sports medicine/visual novel game thing instead of a pervy fighter.

Get a screen protector, like this one

It's plastic, not glass.

It's a hard plastic instead of glass like on a phone, but it's still a complete non-issue unless you scrape hard objects against your devices' screens on a regular basis.

Wasn't the dock scratching up unprotected screens? Unless they did a hardware refresh at some point, I'm assuming that's still an issue.

When you’re placing it in the oven be sure to place it screen side up, the oven racks have a tendency to scratch the screen.

Maybe your dock was slammed previously by larger, blacker switches.

I always advocate for the tempered glass ones like the one posted earlier because the plastic screen doesn't feel that nice. It feels soft and weird. The amFilm one feels great, like a high end cellphone or tablet. I also like the colors a little better than without the screen protector on (I compared mine to a friends before he applied his).

It actually wouldn't. 4-Player's gotta be doable with two pairs of JoyCons.
