It would be great if Nintendo had the dock mimic the box.
A life spent making mistakes is not only more memorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Agreed, Breath of the Wild is the first Zelda game I'm enjoying and it surely helped sales, but it's yet to be seen if more quality games can be delivered.heywhatsmyname wrote: ↑ The Switch had a strong start and WOM is good. But I hope people don't get carried away with the "Nintendo is back" narrative.
Let's see if Nintendo can continue to build on to this momentum throughout the year. Console releases can start strong and then falter.
Right now, I think they should do well with key exclusives like Mario Kart 8: Deluxe, Arms and Splatoon 2 coming in regular intervals.

Is there no PS4 pro setting?XFactor11 wrote: ↑ Digital Foundry compares Lego City Undercover on the Nintendo Switch vs the PS4, XBox One and Wii U versions:
- Switch and PS4 versions run at native 1080p
- XBox One version is below 1080p native resolution (outputs at a reduced native horizontal resolution 1388 x 1080p).
The PS4 version runs at 60 fps locked indoors, 30 fps capped outdoors.
Swich version is also 1080p native resolution in docked mode, 720p in portable with slighly reduced image quality compared to the PS4 version.
The XBox One version is actually below 1080p native resolution.
The Wii U version is 720p native resolution but 23-30 fps.
The Switch and Wii U versions have framerate drops below 30 fps and actually drops frames
more often in portable mode unlike other Switch games released so far.
Switch version runs around 26-30 fps in docked mode.

Not so, it's available at Gamestop I the US. Wonder if it'll be a In Canada at eb games. It's retails for 499 us w. Zelda and Mario kart and a 128gb sd card.doctorgonzo wrote: ↑ CAD will not be applicable. This is reported to be a Russian exclusive bundle.

Not the same thing. What GameStop is selling is just the regular switch with games they pulled off the shelf. The Russian bundle is straight from Nintendo.

It seems to have enough improvements over the Wii U version to warrant another purchase.

Lol at the comparison to the 3DS. Looks like the Wii U owners aren't missing much.XFactor11 wrote: ↑ I prefer Mario Kart over realistic car racing games because Mario Kart is more of a party game, and a lot more spontaneous to play.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with its 94 metacritic average makes it the best reviewed racing game of all-time.
The vanilla original Mario Kart 8 on Wii U averaged an 88.

Digital Foundry compares Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Switch) to Mario Kart 8 (Wii U) vs Mario Kart 7 (3DS)
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Switch): 1080p native resolution docked, 720p in portable mode.
- locked smooth 60 frames per second.
- All DLC from Mario Kart 8 included, and two new additional characters.
- Able to bank two items at a time instead of just one.
- New battle modes added (never released on Wii U).
Mario Kart 8 (Wii U):
- 720p native resolution
- 59-60 frames per second with frame pacing issues (buggy delivery of frames where it alternates between delivering 59 and 60 fps output).
- To add the DLC tracks and characters to the vanilla Wii U Mario Kart 8, it costs $34 USD extra.
- Only can have 1 item banked at a time and no battle mode.
Mario Kart 7 on 3DS:
- (240p native resolution, 60 fps target, variable between 59 and 60 fps delivery).
No anti-aliasing on either version.
