+1 to this, fits great and feels so much nicer to use compared to the naked screen. Now we just need a touch screen game to test with...
Has anyone bought a stand for their switch? I find the inbuilt one a bit fiddly to pop out, and it doesn't flex back enough for lower angles which I would have prefered. Alternatively, has anyone also tried an angled USB type C cable as well? Took my Switch out the other day to play Bomberman in the park with a few friends and it was pretty good. But then not being able to charge in tabletop mode was a bit of a pain
.I have a stand already from my MOGA controller for my phone, but it's not tall enough for my Anker type C connector, and even then the stand feels a bit tall.

Correct.
Try Human Resource Machine.
The Orzly tempered glass screen protector I have feels exactly the same to use as no protector at all.
I have the Hori and Orzly stands.
Benefits for Hori:
- Narrower
- Has guide pegs to lock the base of the switch in place like the official stand
Benefits for Orzly:
- Comes with a USB-C cable, and used to come with a tempered glass screen protector
- Thinner
- Can store the cable and some games etc within the stand
Both are sturdy enough and have the full range of angles, but without the Hori is more secure in my opinion and the one to go for since you already have a screen protector.
I ordered the US version for $35 + $8 delivery. There had better not be any additional DLC that I can't get through my UK account.

Well technically last year they admitted in advance to only really having Zelda to show off. But even so, they've had a bad string of E3's. So forgive me if I expect this year to follow suit. They have a lot to do to make up for it. I will be mad if they still show stuff for 3DS (Switch is a handheld, stop giving it competition/people less reason to get one over a 3DS).
Yooka Laylee releases on most other platforms tomorrow. I think they mentioned simultaneous release on all platforms, so you should be able to get it on Switch tomorrow too.
Just finished shovel knight - took me 6 and a half hours. Some really good platforming at the end - that propeller knight stage 
It was basically and 'ultra-mega man' with a bit more narrative. I think the best 2D game ever was Dynamite Headdy and compared to that it was 'more of the same each level', rather than being 'constantly innovative'. Still good fun - not sure whether it's worth playing the other campaigns if it's just more of the same. Thoughts?

The Spector of Torment is more fun than the Shovel Knight campaign imho, so absolutely!
The Plague Knight one, not so much, it's just a less playable character in the same stages.
In need of some advice, I bought a "New" 3DS XL in like 2015 and whilst they aren't being clear on it I don't see them throwing their support into that for too long.
Is it wise to make the switch (no pun intended) now? I'm conscious that the longer I live it the more the DS drops in value.

I sold off my 3DS and games to partly fund the Switch. It's obvious where they're heading with it.
I would have thought so. It's so good as a handheld (I've done about 90% of my gaming on it handheld) that you have to assume both support and user base will switch over.
There's a ton of these for sale on the MM. Is it that bad?
A lot of people got it for Zelda and are now selling it.
The next big game is a little while off.

Unless they're having some kind of buyers remorse or they need the cash I can't see why you would want to sell something so soon - especially something so cool.
Edit - or as above. I would never do that but I guess some people might.
It's actually something I've seen more of in the past 5 years or so - people buying and selling and re-buying consoles. It's just something people do now, it seems. Maybe it's due to all the new trade shops around. If I buy something I buy it to keep it.
