On Directchat, Chrom on Resetera who I think was the dude who called the one that happened last week is the one saying it. He says it's probably another mini one focused on more smaller stuff and not to get too hyped, then there'll be a proper big one next month.

Huge thing I just realized that was recommended in this thread that I wouldn’t have done if I knew the consequences. I put a tempered glass screen on my Switch like 6 months ago and finally decided that I was fed up with the reflective finish. Removing the screen removes the matte finish. I never would have put the screen protector on if I knew that was the case.

Ughhh, I can’t imagine there’s any way to fix this.

Can you post a pic? I've got the same one but have no problems with it yet. Guess it's staying. :v:

I took it off on purpose because I wanted the matte finish instead of the reflective one of the tempered glass. When I removed it it was just as reflective as the glass.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/nintendo-rumor-archive.16589/ might be the only good thread on that hellfire castoff site which for some reason, has real people posting real info who have proven track records (talking about stuff like TWEWY before the mini direct, that kinda thing)

https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/7qjo14/resetera_insider_smaller_direct_this_thursday_a/

there might be another smaller direct this week with a proper one in feb.

Another Nindies thing would be good. Ultimate Chicken Horse is suppose to hit sometime soon, and the Night in the Woods devs kind of teased they might be doing a Switch release. Also we still need Hollow Knight info.

The new direct is 100% dedicated to the Detective Pikachu amiibo, that's right folks this monster amiibo is just too big to cover in less than twenty minutes. Special guest Griffin McElroy hosts.

I doubt, even when the emulator works decently, that it’ll be able to connect and play online with people on actual hardware so I wouldn’t worry about that.

The Wii U emulator does that now I believe, so it's doable, but not anytime soon.

Gang Beasts is out of Early Access and got a PS4 release as well, which makes me think Sony tossed some money at that game for console exclusivity.

Yeah, you need a Nintendo ID and everything and they warn you not to use yours in case Nintendo has a way of detecting it. It's quite impressive they managed to pull it off.

I dont really understand what he means by a matte screen? Like, one that wouldn't reflect light?

From what I can tell, he is under the impression that the standard Switch screen (sans screen protectors) has a matte finish and his reflective screen protector somehow stripped this matte finish away when he removed it.

This is not true, the Switch screen is not matte in any way shape or form unless you put some sort of matte screen protector on it.

edit to further explain: typically a matte finish has a certain look and feel to it, less smooth and doesn’t reflect as much light as a glossy finish. Lots of laptops come with a matte finish to their screen, same with many/most lcd TVs

My friend is like legit upset with me because I told him I was buying the PS4 version of Dark Souls Remastered over the Switch one. I just couldn't get through to him that Dark Souls is probably the last game on the planet that would benefit from being on a portable, fragile system.
