I can't believe how good some of these NES games are. Metroid, Tennis, Tecmo Bowl. Were they this responsive originally, or is this an improvement? Seems very fluid for ~1986

Just discovered that there's a Mario Golf game from 1991 and it's dope as fuck. The last time I played Mario Golf was on Game Boy. This is a game changer.

I see some good deals on memory cards.. didn't know they were this cheap.. original plan was to go strictly digital

Now I know I can't take the games I physically own n rip them on to the hard drive, but if I were to bite the bullet n pay for the game a 2nd time via dl, would my progress be saved or will I have to start over??

Yeah, it looks pretty stupid to me, other than the D-Pad. Nobody who currently has a switch will want to buy it, unless they have crazy monies or is just a crazy collector-boy like copper tom.

Kind of defeats the purpose of the "Switch" name.

Good point

I tried playing BOTW in handheld mode. Nope. Couldn’t see anything. Loses so much on the small screen
