Here comes the Labo VR kit.
No signs of a head strap though

To bad it's expensive for what it is would rather save up a bit more and get a real VR set
I also wouldn't trust any kids with it since there isn't a strap and they just expect you to hold it up and swing it around whilst pretending to be an elephant

got a replacement xenoblade 2 torna yesterday and this one actually had a game cartridge in it

im really liking the tweaked battle system, it is a lot more involved right from the start, had just over 3 hours on it now and it is good fun and im really getting into it.

any one else ordered a game to find a tampered seal and no game in it? first time it has happened to me

No but I don't really buy games from Amazon as I don't trust them since my gf ordered a game and waited 12 weeks and it never turned up

Update on the 8BitDo SF30, D Pad is excellent, buttons are loud to press but not really a problem for me... maybe for others.

It's actually very good to play BOTW on, granted for long periods of gaming I think it could strain when holding but overall positive opinion on this. Happy with my purchase.

Hmmm might end up getting a 8BitDO

I had a sealed copy of Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze delivered from Amazon with no cartridge in the case.

How's the input lag when playing local multiplayer?

In truth I probably won't come across this as it's rare I play multiplayer, I will give it a whirl over the weekend.

I've read so many conflicting opinions about the input lag. I don't care if there is lag when using more than one of these 8bitdos but I need just one of them to work well with the official pro controller and joy cons.

Just grabbed Diablo it runs and looks great on Switch... The text is a bit small at times is my only compliant but donning my spectacles sorts that.....lol

 

[Simmz]

Run it through on the hardest setting it allows, as it's still pretty easy on the switch I have found, plus will level and get better loot faster that way.

I tried a search of the thread but didn't return anything relevant. Has anyone got a case to transport all their Switch gear? (Tablet, Joycons, dock, charger etc.)

Looking at:
Nintendo Switch Game Traveler Deluxe and Storage Case, iVoler
tomtoc Travel Deluxe Storage Hard Case Compatible with Nintendo Switch
Nintendo Switch Case, Diocall Deluxe Carry Case Fit Nintendo Switch System and Pro Controller

Or if anyone suggests anything else. Thanks.

Anyone know where I can get 8-bit Armies? Wiki page said it was out on switch on in Sept 2018 - but can't seem to find it anywhere

It's not out on switch. Wikipedia is woefully inaccurate as a source of information.

stupidly good deal. i bought the grip a few weeks ago for £12 alone. so this is a steal even if you don't use half the stuff.

Rayman & Rabbids is currently £12.72 on the Russian eShop. It's an amazing price for an excellent game.

just had a £11 offer accepted on mm for rabbids as i saw it was on offer however the seller hasn't got back to me with payment details. i may just pay the extra quid and get it digitally. i'll give the seller another day or two.

Just to double-check, there is no way to back-up saves is there? Unless you get Nintendo Switch Online and the game supports it?
