Seems like if you got used to having them in TV mode, it would be odd not to have them in handheld. Maybe a joycon pro? 😊

It wouldn't be a pro joycon 2 though since you'd loose the ability to use them for 2 player table top or dual weild for play without a grip (especially in games like Fitness Boxing and ARMS). It would be creating a very very niche controller all for a couple programmable buttons. Which if you got super used to programming them for each game, you could just bring the charging grip or pro controller and limit your handheld gaming to exclude them. Hori though, if they do a split pad pro for swtich 2, they'll have programmable buttons and probably programmable turbo and other stuff. Perfect for a third party that can get by manufacturing lower quantities and also cut out features like mouse/battery/nfc/..etc to help keep production costs low enough to make a profit.

Looks like the Onn microSD express cards from Walmart are made by Lexar. I grabbed a 512GB card.

So glad I took a chance on two 512gb cards as one for my Switch 2 and then one for my son's Switch 2.

Enjoying the Switch 2 but that battery life is on the weak side with how long it lasts.

For those with the NSO Expansion, hold left thumb stick in any direction when loading GameCube app for the original GameCube boot up screen.
 
I didn't spend a lot of time with Switch 2 but my son and I had a blast playing Mario Kart World on Saturday in Split screen.

I also got my pro controller from Costco on Saturday and I think the Switch 2 version feels better the the OG pro controller.

The only other game I picked up was Fast Fusion and that game rules. If you liked any of their previous games I highly recommend the new game especially at $14.99. I think the game is a steal at that price. I don't understand why the game isn't featured on the Switch 2 eshop.

I'm really looking forward to Donkey Kong in a month. I have that also preordered at Costco.

I'm going to try and preorder Pokemon Z-A for Switch 2 later today. My son was super excited when I showed him the trailer.

I haven't played a lot of it on Switch 2, but what I did play was pretty good. I've played quite a bit on PS5 Pro lately, and of course the Switch 2 version isn't as good, but I was still pretty impressed with it. Using Hello Games cloud saves I was able to download my save and pick up where I had left off. The only issue I ran into was the left and right turning felt sluggish at first, a bunch of stuff was downloading at the time, so I don't know if that was affecting it or not. I saw a tip to turn off the 30 fps lock, and when I did that it was much more responsive (I play in first-person btw).

Thank you. Right now I'm slowly playing Sea of Stars and Stardew as I recover from what seems my 1,000th concussion 😶 but want something I can sink into eventually that's got some sort of meat.

Side note: I will not sell my Zelda OLED. That is going to sit on display. The dock started acting up and I already swapped that out for a Jumpgate, having it as a shiny show piece after I get my S2 is no problem for me 😅

Ugh,,,, Still waiting for those ONN cards to be available near me. Checking almost daily and nothing so far.

How do you know someone is a Costco member? They’ll tell you. 😁
 
I sitting undecided on an unopened preorder. How’s the transfer process? Am I allowed to have my switch 1 still, or is it like the old days where it’s a one way transfer with no take backs?

It only moves specific saves that can only be on one system at a time, like Animal Crossing and some demo saves, and every other game and save remains. It'll just move all of the games in the library page over, so if you have a bunch of free/cheap bullshit in there, it'll be there on the Switch 2 as it downloads as much of it as it can. It doesn't move any of your Miis over.

Also, the transfer is only available when you first set-up the Switch 2, so you either do it or move on.

There's a really seamless way like Frisky pointed out, and another way they advertise where you can transfer without a Switch 2 around but it'll wipe everything on that system.
 
Have any DK Bananza preorder items been shown/announced by any retailers? I'm likely just going digital, but was curious if anything has been mentioned yet
 
If your looking for a thin case i just grabbed this. It fits the switch 2 well so I dont think you have to worry about it scuffing the system since its not soft. Game cartridges fit fine. It's only 16 bucks atm. Also have a Mumba case coming from Amazon only 20 bucks will see if I like that better. It's more like the rds cases, soft on the inside.
