Nintendo Switch

Allow me to say the word, Quintuple as that's what you did.

You could edit out our posts, so that way; it doesn't lead to posting that many times without even a comment from anyone else.

So I shouldn't give news updates about the Switch in the Switch thread? If I edited them in no one would know I did it as there's no alert for edits. There's plenty of hours between each post. It's not like it's constant one after another.

You and your ilk do realize that these supposed rules for forums you keep throwing around are the reason so few people actually post here and newcomers find it inhospitable right?

"Omg, I love OU! But everyone must post the way I want!"

You're like the people who complained when Soarin was added to the Land and they no longer had a quiet place to hang out at the park. Theme parks shouldn't be quiet and active forums with longevity have constant posting.

Asking for it to be the other way (not counting blatant spam) is just selfishness. This is not your personal chat app.

You do realize your incessant need to talk down to our members and others is actually not a helping hand in the quest for hospitality, right?

As far as editing, @Mike S - I'm sure @Alexshow meant no harm in his suggestion. Usually we would rather not have 4 posts back to back; but in your case you were right since some time had allotted between each post. :thumbsup:

I didn't see any harm. It just seemed strange.

Sounds good to me. Especially on a hybrid portable.

Just look at where we started on the GameBoy to now.

Much agreed. NVidia is the best for graphics, they have the best drivers also.

Is it just me or is there a giant crystal phallus in the Mario Odyssey pic?

It's ice.

What is ice doing in a desert? Mario logic

 

[Mike S]

I wholeheartedly agree Ubisoft.

Unfortunately no Project Cars

I remember when that was supposed to come to Wii U.

Same here. Seems a lot of publishers are playing the wait game as well, so hopefully Switch will sell well so that more games will come.
THQ Nordic is said to have two titles in the making as well, though I can't remember if anything has been announced.

I don't think so. Either way it seems like all the 3DS and even Vita devs are on board so that's already more support than Wii U.

Funny really how some complain it uses Maxwell Architecture, I think these people just whine because they heard Maxwell is no longer the newest architecture of Nvidia. My Desktop PC's graphics are Maxwell and it is great.

Just had a quick look at it, they are html documents with different specs. Seems like info that comes with the dev kits.

Mike, can't post the entire thing, as basically the 3 files you posted are e-books encoded in html, hence why they are zip files, they contain a bunch of different files which are elements of the ebook, so you can't just use the html file by itself.
