Nintendo released a firmware update for the Switch. All you need to know is that there's still no cloud saves, which means they're not coming till the paid online service is up.

Apparently 5.0 is much tougher to hack, and it contains code for a hardware revision. So the big version jump was for stuff behind the scenes

$20 adapter lets you use a Dualshock 4 with the Switch including motion controls. Much cheaper than buying a Pro controller.

The converters are a cool idea but the a and b button are swapped w/ Nintendo so when I had my. Ps4 controller I kept hitting X to go to the next screen but instead I was going to the previous screen. Instead, I bought a $22 knockoff wireless controller and that works way better than the converter

I am Setsuna worth $20?

Just copped mine last night and bought Bayonetta 2 with it.

fukking Bayonetta 2 was 59.99

Get on the Switch and set it up...I go into the e-store...

Muthafukkin Bayonetta was on sale for 24.99

But this Switch is going to be the Ultimate Hand Held device since I take the train a bit up here and fly quite a bit.....

since the update I believe the Switch is constantly connected to the internet now. like the moment I take it out of sleep mode the bars are lite already.

Only says 2018... Everyone knows it's 1 player only. No multiplayer but according to it's Nintendo page it says that's to be determined. Could we possibly be getting multiplayer or co-op? Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus for Nintendo Switch - Nintendo Game Details
