Have you recently bought a new gamecard or maybe digital game, bought a pro controller, protecting case or any other accessory accessory, or even a CFW for your switch? If the answer is Yes, then share it with us.

I will start, I have got a Mayflash to be able to use my Wii U pro controller with the Swicth and PC when needed:

And also a good quality jig from wish, (took so long though).

What did you get lately?

new joycons... The plasting thing that holds the joycons together breaks too easily.
I never dropped my switch and I always push the button on the back while detatching then. I have a theory that they will chip off eventually even while inserting them..
Serious dessign flaw Nintendo!! Unless it was intended... then they are just evil..

Why couldt they have made that part metal? Saving money I guess, but still...

Loose joy-cons are covered under the Nintendo warranty, however this is only 12 months (in the Netherlands). I had a loose one and got it repaired for free.

my latest switch purchase was stardew valley and the bridge, and two other cheap games that were on sale. had some leftover balance in my account (before going to the cfw side) so decided to spend it all out before applying a self ban. i think about 12 cents remains in my account. and that was because u always get some balance back when u buy things. so i couldnt completely empty the account.

i think my next purchase may either be a small usb-c to usb-c cable that i can keep with my switch at all times. or a 200gb/400gb microSD depending on price.

Bought Hollow Knight on sale and have played 16 hours... just managed to get out of Crystal Peak when I'd made the mistake of not buying the lantern first. Don't think I'm going to play it again. It's probably a sign of age but I don't have the spirit to play games like this anymore, the frustration of dying multiple times before beating a boss. Losing geos. Getting lost... I can appreciate that a lot of people love it and I suppose I've got my money's worth but in retrospect I wish I hadn't got it. Life is frustrating enough without paying to be frustrated in my time to relax.

Latest digital game I bought was "Hollow Knight" a couple of days ago.... next thing I buy will likely be "The Messenger" when it comes out in a few days..

Monster Hunter just never interested me much so.. that's not likely..

latest physical game I bought was "Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Gold Edition"

latest "accessory" was a USB 3 cable.. switch certified..

(official) mk8 wheels: they have nice trigger buttons on the back and the motion controls on the switch are way better than on the wii or wii u

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her into the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
