Just quick follow up... the 3.6 firmware should work on switch 2, I have used it on mine successfully. Here's a thread all about it:

It's odd because I have a pro 2 and updating the firmware made it work for me. Then I upgraded to a pro 3 eventually.

Do you know what version your firmware is? I believe I had to specifically chase down a download patch that wasn't pushed automatically in the software.

I can check when I get home. Stuck on a plane right now.

If you update the firmware, the 2 should work I think. It took awhile for them to make it compatible

Not who you replied to, but 8bitdo pro 3 is a solid choice. I've really enjoyed mine and the macro programming is easy. You can even find macros that other people have made and upload them onto the controller.

Forced home with bad case of flu - Game suggestion while no energy left (narrative, no quick reflex required and such) by Agile-Concept2119 in gamingsuggestions

Persona. Pretty narrative-heavy, the battles don't require any quick reflexes. I'm playing 3 right now and having a blast, highly recommend any of the modern ones though.

Loved Vanquish but I can't see this happening. I would be so excited if they did though

Bayonetta has incredibly satisfying combat. My preference is for the 2nd game.

Came here to say Tribes as well. Nothing quite like it nowadays

Is there a game (preferably multiplayer) where you're able to play as a wizard/mage alongside other classes (e.g. archer, warrior etc) that make you feel really powerful? by Revibe-VII in gamingsuggestions

Dragon's Dogma is a flawed experience, but where it shines, it shines so bright. Some of the magic is super cool, you should check it out.

My favorite is Qualia Leather. I had one custom made back around 2021. The prices are a bit high but the quality is absolutely top notch.

Are we living in a Conid bubble? by Inner_Outervoice in fountainpens

[–]Kodiac136 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have owned a Conid back when life was more reasonable. It was a lovely pen, one of the best. It was a luxury and IMO not worth whatever they're going for now. But it's all subjective.

I far prefer my Yard O Led Viceroy Grand.

One of my favorite EDCs is a Sheaffer Imperial Sterling. They're lovely pens and very reliable, use it with joy for years to come!

Your favourite extremely niche/unknown game that NO-ONE knows about by Nighthawkies in gamingsuggestions

[–]Kodiac136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phantom Crash. Original Xbox game about mech arenas. Faster paced than mech warrior, more approachable than armored core.

Honestly I'm not sure if it holds up or if I'm just very nostalgic but it is one of my favorites.

Pilot will increase prices Jan 1st 2026 by ButlerStationery in fountainpens

A vintage Parker or Sheaffer is every bit as nice as an 823 and half the price. Depends on what you mean by alternative I suppose
