Nintendo Switch Official Thread

Battery Test. He set these up with a clock, each device on maximum brightness and with power save or screen dimming turned off. This meant that for the Switch and the Vita I had to tape a stick down to stop it switching off. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth were switched on where the devices had this and each was set to their home screen.

Naw it's good, but people want everything to be slim nowadays so they put shytty batteries in the systems

its not shytty its just that of all our jumps in technology, battery power advancement is the slowest. it gets jumps every 5 to 10 years because it depends on chemistry and product engineering.

when i mentioned im getting a switch last night at work, all 3 of my fellow negro coworkers said they're getting one too and one of them probably in his 50s i said wtf you gonna do with a switch i didn't even know you played videogames he said he grew up playing street fighter in an arcade i told him you're in luck cause there's a street fighter game coming out for switch. and another coworker is a huge dragonball fan he's always talking bout the anime i told him that dragonball xenoverse 2 coming out for the switch, he never heard of it.

so basically somehow they know about the switch but not its games. so Nintendo marketing is actually working for the system itself just not its 3rd party games

Switch on pace to outsell Xbox News Release | DFC Intelligence

But that was in January. I think it will outsell PS4 as well at this point. They recaptured that Wii magic.
