I enjoyed playing arms and BoI on my Switch on the plane down to Sydney for work last night and in my hotel room. I look forward to playing more when I get back there tonight. That's my Switch update for this Tuesday.

I don't mind the dropping voice chat thing as long as they do a good job automatically reconnecting it promptly when back in the app.

That video actually assuaged a lot of my concerns about how well it'll be working. Even though the system is portable, there's a zero percent chance I'd ever be using it around other people (like on the bus or whatnot) so I'm quite happy with just having my phone on speaker whilst I'm using it. I'll either be playing it at home on the big tv or in a hotel on a work trip and either time if I ever want to use voicechat I'll be happy blasting the sound like that (and can put my phone on charge if needed). Obviously this is my personal usecase and it's still stupid you can't switch to messaging apps or whatever but otherwise I'm pretty happy with how it came out.

OK, got to work and Splatoon2 purchased and downloading. 5 hours 12 minutes estimated. Hmm Probably should have brought a charger. Wonder how long this will take in sleep mode...

It was at this moment I remembered that I had ~15GB remaining on my monthly phone data plan and the month runs out tomorrow, so I switched to using my personal hotspot and the remaining time dropped to 30 minutes

Feenix posted:100% at 1%. Calling it now. Bittersweet symphony. better loving not be. 69% with 76% battery remaining. 1.5 hours till lunch. Come on little Switch! Also, noticed that it has a habit of dropping off the wifi when in sleep mode (can tell because my phone has the notification telling me how many things are connected and it drops to 0). Fixed by just leaving the Switch on; anyone else noticed this before?

Happy Noodle Boy posted:loving LOL if you have wired headphones in 2017. I have both wired and bluetooth headphones still and they are both good in different situations. Quite often I prefer my wired ones in situations where I'll be sitting for extended periods of time (like, idk, on a plane) and there's no loving reason to have headphones on that have batteries that wear down. There's nothing more annoying than when the stupid things run out if you don't have an alternative, and frequently the alternative has no drawbacks comparatively.

I enjoy the conversation where people discuss when playing a Switch in public whether the use of over-ear headphones will make any difference to how people are perceiving you.

I can wake my switch up from sleep with the pro controller which turns my TV and media player on but there's nothing on the screen from the switch; when I give the switch a minute so it turns off and then press the button again it is on the screen and all working correctly. Still not sure why.

Hammer Bro. posted:In my very limited experience with using the dock (Portable4Life), I'd press Home once and wait for it to vibrate to wake up the system, then press Home once more after that to cause the screen to actually turn on. I'll give that a go when I get home from my trip; I'm positive I tried that already but who knows, there's every chance I didn't.

Quick question I travel a lot for work and my switch has been a godsend. I'm currently taking the cable that came with my pro controller plugged into the end from an iPhone charger to charge it but it's very slow. Would it be better to get one of the real chargers from Nintendo? Just want to get a charge faster.
|
# ¿ Aug 8, 2017 01:17 |
|
Yeah, I travel for work about 50% of the year for 4 days at a time and the annoyance factor in having to pull the cable out from behind the entertainment unit every time is far greater than just buying a second charger.

Tried charging my switch on my new real Nintendo charger tonight, got 4% in 7 minutes. Yeah, this is a bit better than my old travel solution.

SeANMcBAY posted:Same. I already have a backlog of Wii U and 3DS games. I need some time to breath so I could finish them. Just get a job when you travel every second week and you'll unlock countless hours to finish games (note this only works on systems you can take with you or hook up to hotel tvs).

I very rarely play docked, since I nearly always play it in bed or when work-travelling. When I do it is Pro Controller all the way.

I always try to love Sonic games but the platforming is just so frustrating and imprecise to control if you come from a background of Mario. Still going to buy this one and give it a chance later, though...

I like GoNNER but it could be a bit more helpful with explaining wtf is going on (esp with the items you can pick up). I get that it's got a really basic interface and aesthetic but without reading a wiki I had no clue wtf was going on with some of my choices. I mean, BoI is somewhat like that but at least their items have names and more useful visuals. Fun game, though.
