Wish I would have bought the OLED version sooner, Metroid Prime is epic on it

Hello,

Apologies if this has been asked before but this is quite a lengthy thread.

Can any recommend an SD card to go in the switch?

And does anyone know, if you already had a small one in there, can you just remove it, put a new one in then it sorts itself out, or will it mess everything up?

Probably looking minimum 128gb maybe 256 depending on how much.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

Anything from a reputable brand will do, the faster the better.

If you want to keep your stuff, just copy the content of the old one to the new one and it will carry on as it did before.

San Disk or Samsung have been my go tos.

Yup have a load of Samsungs for my my cameras and not one has died on me in years.

Throw in Kingston too.

I have SanDisk, Samsung and Kingston in my Switch Lite, Normal and OLED.

Heads up for those who forgot to order the physical version of Metroid Prime ahead of release day (like me). Looks like shop to have it at the cheapest price as far as I can see at £29.85. That is on back order though.

Anyone else got the Hori split pad pro? Highly recommend it if like me you’ve also got a steam deck then coming back to the switch to play Metroid Prime my hands were cramping up after a short play in handheld, the hori pad makes it a similar length to the deck so feels more familiar now, and it makes it so much more comfortable when playing for longer then half an hour

Finally took the plunge and bought BOTW. Dispatched this morning so nearly time to see what all the fuss is about.

Wtf is going on with the price of pro controllers?

Last time I checked (about 2 weeks ago) £50, today £80.

Probably an outlier as I just checked 5 stores and all 49.99 or 59.99 (but also OOS).

EDIT: Nope, £49.99 in stock too, god knows where you were looking,.

Yup out of stock.

 

[Noxia]

Yup out of stock.

IT took me less than 30s to find one in stock nowhere near £80, and a proper retailer. £55 at Asda, I'll see what else I dig up.

Smyths £49.99 in store only and limited numbers/locations.

Edit: Also at hughes but £59.99 and a gross £8 P&P unless you collect. Harder challenge was finding one at the £80 you quoted.

Do the Switch Pro controllers have a 3.5mm audio jack?

No, there's a USB C port but I'm not sure if that's just for charging or if you could put a dongle in. The Switch can do Bluetooth audio now.

Thanks. I guess I'll use Bluetooth then.

Is the Mario (MAR10) day sale coming to the UK?

So I've changed my mind and won't be getting the OLED Switch, and I'll stick to my Switch Lite, but I'm curious if it is likely that Nintendo will release an updated Switch model with better performance. I don't follow Nintendo news, so I'm unsure of any rumours. If there are, I would be disappointed if I bought one now and a new one came out shortly afterwards.

A Swith Pro was rumoured for a long time, however we got the OLED. Better bigger screen but same performance.

There will likely be a Switch 2 in a couple of years.
