So I've been in and out of Switch updates ever since I got console banned way back when Smush modding got going. Honestly, it feels like the same console it was back then, with a few more "Virtual Console" games than before. The Switch is still lacking so much of what made the 3DS a great console: the themes tab even being a category in settings is a joke, Virtual Console is a monthly service which no one wanted from the company that put so many old beloved games on their last console for purchase where they could play without worrying about a subscription taking away their access to play.

I updated my stock fw just to check if it breaks my OLED's hwfly chip. Good news is hwfly chip seems to fail at first after reboot but quickly re-trained itself and booted to hekate (yellow light flashes then green light). Bad news is this update burns another fuse so sleep mode no longer works.. Anyway atmosphere should be out in a few days.

    @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 in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM

  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
