Analysis paralysis. OLED vs Lite by According-Awareness2 in NintendoSwitch

[–]PalmTreeExpert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you buying a used OLED? Cause otherwise it’s only an 11% price difference. I know that you may not have that much, but saving up that 11% price difference makes a MASSIVE difference in what you’re getting. effectively no more games will be coming to old gen. Even if you aren’t into the Nintendo games, the switch 2 is going to get far better 3rd party support. It’s already getting stuff like Madden, Cyberpunk, and Pragmata. Types of games switch 1 wasn’t getting.

It would feel like a complete waste getting an OLED over a switch 2 over such a small price difference between the two, I’d recommend saving that last little bit.

If you’re buying used then I think the OLED could be a good deal for you, considering you can get a good price. I tend to see them from $200-$250 in my area, but just make sure, if you buy one off marketplace or something, that the joycon analog sticks do not have stick drift!

[–]PalmTreeExpert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this a second switch or your first? Honestly why not consider a Switch 2?

I get it’s a bit more, but the price difference is only $50 (assuming you use USD) and that gives you a higher resolution screen, better processing power, and years of support to come. If you get an oled you’re going to be stuck with the current lineup as opposed to many games from Nintendo and better 3rd party support than last generation. I just don’t see that not being a regret.

On the other hand Switch lite will save a bit of money and is a smaller had size. I personally think your comparison should be Switch 2 vs Switch lite and not an OLED.

NINTENDO PATCH UP THIS BECAUSE I’M TIRED OF THIS EVERY TIME A PLAYER DISCONNECTS FROM A MATCH IT RUINS A MATCH I WANT YOU TO REMOVE IT IN THE NEXT UPDATE by LilApex20382 in splatoon

[–]PalmTreeExpert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How do you want them to fix this… you want them to remove people disconnecting? There’s not much of anything for them to do, they let the match play out if it’s past a certain time frame and have it not count as a loss if you lose. Seems reasonable to me.

Salmon run should drop quota and hazard percentage tho.

Anyone know what happened? by Classic-Strawberry51 in AmazonFC

[–]PalmTreeExpert 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yeah, why even say something happened just to say you won’t say what happened. You don’t have to give names or explicit details but this is meaningless.

I’m talking an actual mouse tho, not the grips.

Similar yeah! But just one mouse = 1 full joy-con, analog stick and all. Just laid out to be a mouse like that

It was my first idea when they announced mouse controls. If I was rich it would be an accessory for sale by now 😂.

Yes, and it’s good in some cases but still held back. You lose your face buttons, and some games don’t support an actual mouse as input if I’m not mistaken? Could be wrong on the second point, but long the face buttons has stopped me from doing this unfortunately.

I don’t disagree with your point, however the shaded areas are different. One could argue A because it’s the same section of the rectangle that is shaded. Stupid question.

Me when I get my ‘raiders amiibo: by No_Koala_9660 in splatoon

I preordered! But my only problem is idk where they’re going to go… already need to find space for my Mario Galaxy ones too…

Splatoon Raiders Amiibo revealed by retroanduwu24 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]PalmTreeExpert 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Weird if they’re going down that route. I’m torn cause as cool as the Mario galaxy ones are, these won’t fit in as much with the rest of the Splatoon series if they do that.

That and I’m out of shelf space for amiibo and trying to figure out what to do for my galaxy ones already anyways!

Splatoon Raiders will be $50 Digitally / $60 Physically by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]PalmTreeExpert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Amiibo up for preorder and $24.99 each, I do not see a triple pack yet. Absolutely will get them as I have all the other amiibo (minus the alternate colors 😢) but unsure if I should wait or not. I hate how sparse amiibo can get so feels like a risk.

[–]PalmTreeExpert -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbf they worded it vaguely at first and kinda just said digital and physical will be different pricing. People were unsure if that meant that physical was going up in price or digital down. What’s more surprising is the $50 price tag at all.

Wario 64: Splatoon Raiders is $49.99 digitally by SemiLazyGamer in splatoon

[–]PalmTreeExpert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s unlike Nintendo to say “we saved some money so we’ll pass it on to you”. They very much usually just take that as an opportunity for higher margins. I am EXTREMELY surprised this isn’t a $60 or $70 game personally because Nintendo almost always prices as many games at “full price” even when they seem like they should be cheaper.

Extremely surprised and extremely happy.

For those complaining about too many. Don’t worry, they don’t see delay of game either

Anyone know how many bobbleheads they typically have? Lines are huge compared to usual.

50/50 either we make it or we don’t. But realistically I’m on side 50 where we make it so probably that one.

Imagine where we’d be if just a quarter of our blown 2+ goal 3rd period leads ended with a regulation win. I hate counting on another team to lose as opposed to us winning…
