^^ that was my biggest concern with it. On my 3rd set of joycons which are now started to drift as well. Think its time to hit up Nintendo for repairs.

I've not run into drift issues at all with my Switch, but I've also not used it near as much as you guys I'm sure. Though I might note that I mostly use it on the go, so it does get bumped around a fair bit.

I just picked up the Hori dpad joycon for $15 at Target, so now I can finally send in my drifting joycon to get "fixed".

oh dude, it's a life changer. I got one for Christmas, and can't imagine playing stuff like Tetris 99 or Dead Cells in handheld without it.

FYI, it's not a true Joycon - IE, you can't use it over blutooth - it is 100% used connected to the Switch. But the dpad is fantastic.

No Warned Collectors (which as been up for sometime now, and being getting to be well known to be super shady) and IMO needs to be avoided, this was another site offering up Gigantic Army that is limited to 1500 for the US listed as with "north america cover"  on the site (as it looks currently) was offering it up as a US game but lacks the rating as this is to be a european release, thus makes it look like it is a cart only with a printed cover which is against NOAs and NOEs and so forths terms and if I read things correctly its like this for other regions as well. Again I am not quite sure how true this all is but I decided to remove the link until I find out more about it.  

[EDIT] I've relisted the site above in my OP of this. I am still not quite sure what is up but it is indeed a legit release for Europe and this paticular release is still that but with a North American cover, the same is apparently being done for other regions so do bear that in mind

I only play in handheld mode, so no worries there. It'll work great for RPG menus I'm thinking. Thanks for the info!

I play mostly in handheld mode also, and the dpad works with Dragon Quest XI S when played in 2d mode.

I don't know how, but I somehow get a feeling based on this picture alone that this game will probably suck.

Anyone whom is interested in Mary Skelter 2 from Limited Run Games (preorders go live 11/26) this also includes the first game Mary Skelter Nightmares which is the revamped version of the OG Escape from Nightmares (I presume this is on card since LRG seems to not do with codes and such)

Yeah I agree, I looked it up and it got pretty good reviews but seeing in action it's not for me not keen on card based gameplay and such, but I know there are some out there that like stuff like this.

What's everyone playing right now? I'm working on Link's Awakening, then moving to Ni No Kuni before tackling World End Syndrome.

I'm 35 hours into DQ XI S (already beat it on PS4), then hopefully I can get to Tales of Vesperia DE. Or it might be Witcher 3 at the end of this month.

If you like quirky little puzzle games, I highly recommend the game Baba is You on the eshop. It's a very interesting game with some unique gameplay features that make it a lot of fun! And some of the puzzles are very challenging. I love games that get you 'stuck' every now and then and if you have to figure out the logic procedures in order to complete the stage.

It is on steam also - video here if you wanna check it out: https://store.steampowered.com/ap...
