so far i kinda like skyrim.

sorry. i guess since i don't know where to post stuff properly then maybe i should just not be on here.

I think you misunderstood. I want the new ones but I want the option to continue playing on the old ones but I can't now because the no internet thing has disabled my being able to use it.

i got unpacking last night. i played it some before bed. very relaxing and cute little game. $20 though. not sure how much game there is on it to be played. download was like 7 min. doubt there's much content there. i hope it's not just gonna be the same few rooms over and over.

yeah but some of us like to go back and keep playing some of the stuff on older consoles and handhelds. i went to go play a legos game on mine that i can't get on my switch the one day and it wouldn't let me connect to the wifi to update my device and i can't get on and play without the update so it became unusable.

Heatman i'll look into over the weekend.

like i said it's worse with games like fortnite. when my lite overheats the fan doesn't come on like it should and it's noisy when it does. i can tell if it's time to shut it down because my fortnite skins start looking screwy. been having trouble with my mic not wanting to work too.

i just wish the switch lite was more capable of handling shooter games. it is very difficult to be competitive in a shooter game with a switch. for example pitting someone in fortnite with a switch lite with only 30 fps against someone on a pc with 300 fps.

i wish the pc companies would get together with nintendo and try to figure out a way to bring more pc only games to nintendo. i will never be able to play cod with friends because there's no way to on a switch. there's been quite a few pc only games i've seen that interest me. the so called "similar" ones that switch offers up don't always have the best gameplay or mechanics. if they can offer us fortnite with all that goes into that game i don't understand why they couldn't have a switch version of cod that played the same. your thoughts in things like this?

i'm not sure what "franchise" but i wish they would come out with something besides car/racing/driving games and horror games. i'd like to see more games that aren't competitive that would give some of us a more creative outlet. stuff that's a little more soothing to play. i like to have a rip roarin time in some games but there's days i want something calming. everything now is mostly shooters, cars, horror and sports. plus there's a larger market of older gamers than there used to be. maybe they could cater to that some. oh and i forgot about the farming. sick to death of the farm games.

i wanted sims 4 but then i found out it was for pc and i can't afford a good pc or the games so no go on that. sims on nintendo consoles like 3ds suck something awful. but i imagine the switch will be my go to. i wanna get the oled at some point.

i appreciate the answers. i've never seen any online charges with ps2 before so that's news to me. never had an xbox either. i will probably stick with nintendo products as they are more affordable even the online services but now they've added another way to drag money from ppl. first there was just the online service. one person can pay $20 a year. family is like $39. now they added this new online plus thing for $50. generally there's options to do something cheaper and they offer free games. i'm rarely interested in the new games they put out because they're not ones i care for. but, i still have quite a few games to play despite that. i hadn't really done a lot of gaming for quite a while. i was just mainly playing sims on my wii. i feel like if we have to have subscriptions then we shouldn't have to be paying for in game content. but that's just my opinion. ☺️

ok thankyou

i remember back when i had my ps2 and all the game consoles i've had since then. there was never any online service to pay for. you just got on the internet...found your friends or whatever and played. now they make you pay for services in order to play with others and i'm assuming in general. it's bad enough the games are $60 a pop or maybe more?? i sometimes feel like they're just looking for ways to stick it to our wallets. i don't care for that much. you pay for internet...the console...the games and then that service, plus any in-game stuff you want. it's discouraging sometimes. it's getting more and more difficult to find sources of entertainment that don't cost a fortune. what are your opinions on this?

he's dead????????

i spent $170 on my 3DS XL. best investment i had made. oh well.

if they're gonna run with the switch they need to make some improvements in their hardware i think. i used to be able to play games all day long on my 3DS and that thing never once locked up or overheated. they need 3DS capabilities in with the switch capabilities to give us something more stable. but i like the concept of either having the option to hold it or hook it up to the tv. i just wish the damn screens weren't so small on all these things. lol!

for some reason the switch lite overheats really fast. the little internal fans don't work like they should. i can play animal crossing for quite a while before it heats up. fortnite is more involved and i'm good for about 3 matches then i gotta switch to my other one. they don't get quite as hot using the controller instead though. not sure why.

i don't mind that it takes up my time. i kinda need that.

i'm not sure what you mean by experience. sorry. perhaps you could explain a little more for me?

i miss my ps2 but i fried it playing too many hrs at a time. lol!

i like the flexibility of the newer handhelds. they can either be handheld or some can be plugged into the tv so u can play like u would on a regular console. the only thing i didn't like about my wii was never being able to establish a decent internet connection. i like the fact that i can play games online with friends and be able to communicate through voice chat about the gameplay or just every day discussions. it's fun and it's nice to have the companionship. plus the cheaper price is nice. i don't see any point in spending $500 or more on a console anymore. i do wonder if you get the hulu on your switch if you can use the same acct you have on the pc?

my favorite games were animal crossing new leaf and the trendsetter fashion games. plus i liked lego pirates of the carribean. they don't have that one for the switch. *sad look*

i couldn't get on the internet with mine to update it anymore so i couldn't use it. they stopped the support on it right? i haven't checked my wii. i hope i don't have the same issue with it. that 3ds was frickin awesome.

i am just now getting this game. it's downloading atm. it looks interesting.
