Picked up a Mario Odyssey bundle in Black Friday :).

Can I ask what the general consensus is on screen protectors? I have to say the build quality is not very encouraging, I'd never normally bother with a phone or tablet but this thing feels a lot cheaper. If I need one, are there any which aren't really noticeable?

It's a soft plastic screen which compared to the glass phone screens doesn't break when dropped but scratches easily.

Get a tempered glass screen protector on it and it will feel just like a modern phone screen, avoid the plastic ones.
 
Can't friggin wait!

...until I get to work on Monday to pick it up and play it that evening.

However, the game awards tomorrow night. Fingers crossed for some Metroid content :)

Yeah I've just seen some report of a tweet suggesting a Metroid Prime trilogy port coming to Switch as an appetizer for 4. I would be all over that if true!

I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Hoping for a prime trilogy release and trailer for prime 4.

If so, all aboard the hype train!
 
Looking forward to some trailers and gameplay hopefully coming out this Thursday for the Switch. Would be great to have some new announcements and some updates on previously announced games

The first "new"metroid prime on the GC is probably still my favourite game ever and I would be all over a remastered trilogy.
 
If anyone has bought the Mario kart edition switch recently could you let me know the first 6 characters of your serial please? id like to see if I can get a version I can use linux on via the chat pad.
 
I got a despatched email earlier from
ShopTo, don’t hold much hope of it arriving tomorrow though as sounds like their delivery has been shoddy of late for others, only ordered as was discounted on Black Friday through eBay.
 
I've been trying to decide for a few weeks whether now is the time I get a Switch or not. With let's go and smash coming out I think I'm finally coming round to it.

How are games in handheld mode? I think that would be the main way I'd end up playing (90+% of the time). I feel like I might be missing out on something though by not playing on the big screen.

I did 95% of Zelda in handheld, maybe 140 hours (I took my time!). Some games have a noticeable difference in quality but that's up to developer competence. All the big games are first class in portable, I do remember one with had tiny text that was barely legible
 
Love playing in handheld! But I play a good mix between docked and handheld and find it excellent in both.
 
I play mostly handheld and it is great. I've put over 30 hours into Civ 6 in the past 2 weeks only playing in handheld and it's amazing that I can play a text heavy and complex strategy game like this on a handheld. I do still play it through my TV for online MP games like Mario Kart and Splatoon 2 so I'm probably about 80/20 handheld/TV.
 
Keep an eye out for sales on the store over the next day or so. Apparently the Game Awards is on tonight or early morning and they do sales across all platforms to tie in I guess with nominations. Celeste is up for GOTY so maybe that will be among those discounted
