I am on the waiting list.
Might play Zelda then sell it. The small library is fine, I think I said itt anyone who slams Nintendo for lack of 3rd party support would not play BF, Witcher, etc on a Nintendo system anyway. Nintendo is and always has been for it's 1st party greatness.

A Ubisoft shooter featuring Rabids, Mario, Peach, etc Nintendo characters holding and firing guns is apparently in the works, using the Snowdrop engine as South Park and I believe the Division uses.

damn bros, mario kart 8 portable is the way to play the game. I played it docked on the big screen, but it feels 100x better portable mode.
I was playing portable mode online in battle mode.... hhhhhnnnnnggggg so much fun, won a couple times in shine thief, coins, and balloons..
my favorite mode I played was renegade roundup with the family, chit gets intense when it comes down to the last man standing trying to free the other jailed drivers.

had a MK tournament/cookout on saturday. fuarkkkkkkkkkkk
had one switch in my living room and one in my game room. two separate 4 player cups with 8 CPUs on each at 150/200cc.
had about 20 people at my house. Everyone put 10 dollars in a "pot". Made sure everyone played at least 4 cups. and the top three in points got paid out at the end. it was fun, everyone was drinking and eating. I just wish you could go against each other (4v4 and 4 CPUs) with two switches. Probably gonna do it a little different next time but it was a blast.

PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way.
GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.
PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?
GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.
PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.
GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.

BoTW is great though. I opted out of looking anything up and it was 100+ hours of fun exploring the game on my own without any guides spoiling anything.
Currently enjoying Mario Kart with the family waiting for BoTW DLC and Mario this Winter.

Walked into Target last Saturday on a whim and picked up the last switch they had. I was extremely skeptical (was disappointed with the Wii and never bought a Wii u), but I have to say, Mario kart 8 alone made the switch worth it. Have played hours and hours with my wife already. Neither one of us has had this much fun playing games in years.
Also got Zelda, and I have to say that the graphics are not as bad as I feared, even on my 4k TV. It's a beautiful game and the whole weapon a breaking g thing hasn't bothered me at all. There is a ton of stuff to do, the world is gorgeous, and the difficulty is just right. So glad I bought this system.

People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a nonlinear, nonsubjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

Also in 2 weeks or so if anyone wants a digital copy of Shovel Knight and/or Has Been Heroes (which I would likely never get to) let me know and I may hook you up. Gift them to someone.

I would suggest looking up stores that most people don't think videogames would be there like sears
I'm eventually getting one, just not till a mk8 bundle

I just got one, MK8 portable is freaking awesome. This may end up being my favorite console I think. Just hard to find time to play a traditional console or computer nowadays with work, kids, lifting, etc.
If you want to find one, setup a search on nowinstock, check it before bed nearby, then check it first thing in the AM, if a store pops up overnight, 100% they got it, just get there early and you'll get it. Did that a few days right by my house and got one no problem first try.
