I got it for the Steam Deck. Single player works but multiplayer is broken.

What is the preferred way to play games. Download digitally? Buy through a service? Buy at a store?
Get the largest SD card you can and go digital. It's nice to be able to scroll through your games and boot up any of them without having to carry around extra cartridges.
+1 for digital.

If you leave your switch on plane in Belize when you get a new one all your downloads are still available and the cloud saved progress data is still there... and while you still feel dumb, at least you didnt lose all your physical copies of the games you bought

My son dropped his switch, now has a pretty good crack in the screen. Is this repairable at any of the cell phone repair places?

Would just call around and ask. I don't imagine it's terribly difficult to do it yourself either if so inclined.

I believe Nintendo will do repairs also.

Just picked one up. Downloaded the legacy consoles, FC24, and now debating main title. Zelda? Smash Bros?

Also would love any recommendations for games for young kids (6 and younger).

For single player Zelda BOTW is the way. Smash Bros for multiplayer fun

Lego games are good for little kids like that.

They also seem to like Minecraft

I've heard Kirby is really good for younger kids. Probably going to try that for my 4 and half year old soon.

Agreed, got that when it came out for my daughter who was 6 at the time. At 8, she's now beaten it 4 times and she is around 90% completed on the last one.

FYI, another one she loves is Mario & Rabbids Kingdom Battle. It took her a bit to get used to the turn based strategy battles, but she's been off to the races and is on her 2nd or 3rd play through.

Predictions:
Metroid Prime 2 Remastered shadow drop
Metroid Prime 4 teaser
Twilight Princess HD on Switch

Wishes:
New 3D Donkey Kong game
Super Metroid remake (Dread engine)
Mario Odyssey 2
Ocarina of Time remake
Rare games for Switch online (Diddy Kong Racing, DK64)
Metroid: Zero Mission

I feel like at least two of the wishes might eventually release for Switch 2 though.

Agreed. I started Link's Awakening last weekend and it reminds me of that with some of the Tears of the Kingdom abilities.

For me the biggest surprise was the lack of Metroid Prime 2 Remastered. I figured with only a year to go until MP4, they'd want to get 2-3 out in 2024.

Yeah, my mind immediately went to the Link's Awakening remake. Looking forward to it

MP4 still a day one purchase for me, but the announce trailer left me a little underwhelmed.

Just came across Nintendo World Championships NES releasing mid next month. This looks like a blast! A bunch of speed challenges in classic NES games.

Which parts of the original Metroid Prime did you work on?

Did you work on Corruption? Loved both of those games. Never got around to playing MP2. Not enough allowance

After years of pleading and begging, Nintendo/Monolith pick a random Tuesday to drop the release announcement for the absolute GOAT:

I've almost pulled the trigger on these games multiple times on Switch - assuming they're good?

What game would you say is most similar?
