Managed to mess up both try's with Orzly screen protectors :( first one I aligned wrong and couldn't resit it due to dust! Second one went fine alignment wise but I had a big bubble in the corner, so lifted it and set it back down and now the corner of the protector is raised where I lifted it up!

I never have luck with screen protectors! I guess how I have it now is better than nothing but the corner being raised leaves a bubble and I guess dust etc can get in under that corner! Poo!

I hate that we don't yet know a price or release date yet.

Me too, why do they hold off on this kind of info sometimes? Is it maybe because they want you to impulse buy a game you would not normally have bought as you may have been holding out for another game further down the line?
 
I've read that they're going to be offering a physical release in the EU so that might be why there's a delay? Is it digital only in the US?

lol it's awful!

I'm of 2 minds to leave it as it is, it is protecting the screen.. but I can't take my eyes off the corner where the bubble is :D

Is the bubble on the actual screen or just the black bit ?

I aligned my protector slightly to the right so the top corner has ended up just off the screen but nothing's covering speakers or the sensor so I'm not too bothered, no air bubbles so all good !

Plus the huge potential VC.

E3 should be good this year....well, it better be. Could kill the Switch hype if it doesn't

Nintendo's problem is thast they're always slow at releasing VC content. When the previous platform has a VC game that the new one doesnt... also Nintendo have had a few bad E3's in a row IMO. They must have something good this year to break up the string of disappointment in previous years. Switch will be dead in the water if they don't go all out and show us some new stuff, it could potentially be worse than the WiiU's initial lack of games.

Doesn't matter if you hated the Gamepad. I completed Wind Waker HD using Pro Controller alone. And unlike the Switch Pro controller, it doesn't cost an arm and a leg lol. Not liking the Gamepad, is not really an excuse, I played 99% of WiiU without the gamepad because I also didn't like using it. Only game I really used it in was Nintendo Land and only as a screen (gamepad only play) for a few others.

Every single WiiU game I have (and I have almost all of the good ones) supports Pro controller or alternate control methods. Most, if not all, WiiU games support the Pro controller. A shame, you missed out on so much if you never got the Pro Controller... but fair enough if you've already gotten rid of it. Too late now.

The same thing can be said with Switch. Some people don't like the Joyconn controls, those people will just cough up for a Pro controller and be content on not missing out cool exclusives with that. Heck, the Pro controller even has motion controls in it I think, so you'd never have to pick up a Joyconn for any segments that ask you to do that sort of stuff.

Also, I hear this morning that Nintendo fixed the Joyconn issue with conductive foam. Some dude sent his Joyconn in to them to get 'fixed' and all they added was a piece of foam over the bluetooth antenna. I guess they'll be doing that on all Joyconns going forward. AKA people buying later will have better working Joyconns. It pays to be patient.
 
Joy-Con issue has been officially addressed and resolved!

There is no design issue with the Joy-Con controllers, and no widespread proactive repair or replacement effort is underway. A manufacturing variation has resulted in wireless interference with a small number of the left Joy-Con. Moving forward this will not be an issue, as the manufacturing variation has been addressed and corrected at the factory level.

We have determined a simple fix can be made to any affected Joy-Con to improve connectivity.

There are other reasons consumers may be experiencing wireless interference. We are asking
consumers to contact our customer support team so we can help them determine if a repair is necessary. If it is, consumers can send their controller directly to Nintendo for the adjustment, free of charge, with an anticipated quick return of less than a week. Repair timing may vary by region. For help with any hardware or software questions, please visit http://support.nintendo.com.

Issue at a manufacturing level in a small number of them. That's good to hear it's been resolved.
 
Visited the Nintendo store in NYC last week and got to experience Zelda on a 85" projected screen with a pro controller! WOW it was awesome!

Also they sell the double pack of Joy-Cons in just blue or just red over in the states.
 
The Joycon issue does affect me actually. Didn't really notice at first, because I've played most of my Zelda out of the dock. However, yesterday I noticed it where he just did whatever he wanted very briefly. I was using the grip at the time. My dock is behind my TV slightly, not had chance to re-arrange my AV since getting the Switch. I still think it should work considering I'm about 6ft from the TV or less where I was sat. I have to say, I don't fancy waiting for the turnaround, but if I buy a set of neon Joycons in anticipation for Mario Kart, they might still have the issue anyway.

Maybe a call to Nintendo tonight is in order.
 
I'm glad they've identified and owning the issue and resolved it, then agreeing to repair the joy cons that are affected by it. Good shout by Nintendo.
