Just FYI for everyone. The switch uses an LCD display. A dark theme on an LCD display will actually use more energy than a light theme. LCD's are lit via a backlight which the LCD needs to block out in order to display black/dark colors. Using a dark mode on an LCD means that more pixels need to be activated in order to block out the backlight, thus increasing energy usage. Dark themes are most beneficial for OLED displays where each pixel will emit its own light. When each pixel is emitting light rather than a backlight, then a dark mode will reduce the number of pixels emitting light, and thus reduce energy usage. Some fancy HDR LCD TVs have many positional backlights that they dim for dark regions of the picture which theoretically may reduce energy usage, but I highly doubt the switch does this. If you want to save battery on your switch, don't use dark mode. Just decrease the brightness of the screen (backlight). Update: The new OLED Switch’s battery life should benefit from using dark mode!
I thought switch has OLED (the best screen for handheld devices), and that's why i used dark theme(knowing how OLED works). Thanks for comment! Now i know they use IPS in switch :)
@@headlight31 I usually play videos on my smartphone since its screen is large enough, so that wasn't a real matter to me. The Vita could play videos but I've never used this feature
@@jintei8524 what game did you get it with (if you did)? i'm late but im thinking of getting a switch now, just dont know if i should get it with a game bundle. thanks
@@jintei8524 do you think getting the seperately sold drum kit is necessary for the game? I heard that the drum itself is more expensive than the game lol
I realize this video is nearly 2 years old... but as a mom I want to point out that the rancid flavor of the game cartridges is a safety precaution that’s there on purpose to discourage little kids from eating one. Small kids put EVERYTHING in their mouths. The bad taste encourages them to spit it out. Do what you can to keep the game cartridges out of the reach of little ones in the first place, but it’s good back up protection. Thank you Nintendo!
@@pancakefacessyrup3540 no need to be rude man. This was my first time hearing of this information. Not all people into the switch were paying so close attention 2 years ago, myself included.
I had sweaty hands and i was eating fries and when i wanted to switch cartridges the taste got in my sweat and that’s how my fries are switch cartridge flavoured
if it was a house, then "it's only $72.00" makes sense if it's a bag of tortilla chips, then "it's a little pricey at $70.00" makes sense. context of what's being purchased, my friends.. context
To anyone that wants to buy their games digitally, that's all fine and dandy. Just know if you do that, you don't actually own the game. All you have done is purchased the right to download and play the game. If something happens to your switch or if you break or loose your SD card, you lose your games. Not a huge problem right now as you can re download them, but someday Nintendo will no longer support the Switch and shut down the servers. When that happens you will no longer have access to your games. For me personally, one of the best experiences of a new game is holding it in my hand, looking at the artwork on the box, ripping off the plastic and opening it. Can't beat that new game smell. Maybe that doesn't matter much to everyone, especially the younger generation. But I'm old school. For those reasons, I will not purchase digital games.
Yeah you also save more storage for game card/cartridges and I think that we should get digital games that only exist in digital and can not be found physically like Shovel Knight. Other methods to get the game that both are digital and physical is another case.
Nintendo just doesn't get that people actually prefer digfital sometimes (for some people). I intentionally don't buy physical games on my PS4 or Xbox One, and previously on my 360 and of course, the PC. Anyways, I won't be BUying a single digital game on the switch because not since the Gamecube (arguably the Wii could be included in that just hacking it is just so easy and allows one to play Wii, Gamecube, and any emulators that can run on it, which is basically making it one of the more versatile consoles out there. Tge 3DS as well as the DS and GBVA and GB all were unbelievable simple and allowed anyone with a search engine to figure out how to do it. Nintendo has history of just making their consoles super easy to hack. and the lack of good online support, which is really the only reason people don't try t his as often with their XB1 or PS4 console it would be detected by their online services. Personally I just don't see nay value in upgrading the firmware (at least once most bugs get worked out, but weaknesses will most liekly be easy to exploit since Nintendo are terrible at building a console that actually allows modding and prevenb ts them from making profits. If they weren't so picky about what developers can put on their consoles. For a company that has amazing first party games but little in the way of third party with many indie games being cheaper and better looking on other consoles and PC. Nintendo is becoming the next Sega, one day it will be a software company. To the point about digital games in particular, for the switch I totally agree b/c there will most likely be a point where you will be able to download and transfer them to your MicroSD, so still digital, but then sell the physical game you own, b/c its basically a waste of space. To top it off Ni ntendo Wii U has alrady been emulated with Zelda BotW running at 4K 60fps XD, which puts the switch to shame. I think I'll sell mine until some better games come out, at which point they sghould be easier to find a switch cheaper, and then just play games at better qiality than their newest console, it's disgraceful.
Tips: 1. Get a screen protector so that your screen is protected and so that the screen feels much smoother for touchscreen. 2. If you have any wii, xbox or ps controllers get and adapter to make them work with switch.
Samuel Jurgensen I work in a mall with a GameStop, stopped by there everyday when ups shows up till they got 5 more, first ones since launch, because you can't "special order" them, fucking idiot
6:31 - wrong :) the power drain works for OLED screens. LCD still drain the same if you set it to a certain brightness level. To make it funnier, LCD drains MORE if you set it to high brightness and display dark colors (like black) because the crystals that block the backlight consume more power to be "twisted".
Me and my friends and cousins were the "quarantine" age of Switch users. And we all just marveled how awesome it is for people who just need to chill put and play a console that you can bring around the house and the ease of downloading games from the store (as long as you have a good micro sd).
You don't dip your carts into salsa! You swoop and scoop. Remember, this next time. Swoop then scoop for the best carts and salsa experience. I'm just lookin' out for you, man.
The dark theme won't save any battery. LCD screens use the same amount of power to display a completely white screen as a completely black screen. You might be thinking of OLED displays. Even then the black theme wouldn't save power since the theme is dark grey and only true black pixels save power in OLED displays since the black pixels are not powered.
Not 100% true. Many LCD panels today use active backlight systems. I don't know if the switch does, but there are tons of instances where a black background saves battery power on regular lcds.
its funny i just put it normally in the dock and no scratches whatsoever.. i slowly think that people who get their system scratched must be retarded or just dont care about their new devices and slam it in
roxxor3 same. I take mine in and out of the dock constantly and I havent gotten the slightest scratch on it yet. Putting the joycon on backwards is also just being entirely negligent.
T'Challa of course but that doesnt change the fact that the ppl that experience scratched switches are mistreating them heavily. ive just added 4 tiny cotton squares inside the dock and that solves everything.. and i have a protective film because its a freakin tablet
This is just my opinion and nothing more but... I feel like the switch is a bad choice to go 100% digital. I mean... at least get the big and heavy games on cartridges. No ? Maybe I'm crazy.
Zhab80 its always a bad choice to go 100% digital unless you're playing on pc When you buy a game physically, you're buying the game. When you buy a game digitally, you're buying the right to download and play the game rather than the game itself. This means this right can be revoked in the future. If you delete the game and its later removed from the marketplace, you can no longer download and play that game. Its gone forever. If you buy a game physically, no one is coming to your house to take that game away from you.
I love my Pro controller! When I first got my Switch, I kept accidentally crouching in Zelda, especially during combat. The Pro controller was supposedly less sensitive, so I bought one. Not only did it eliminate the accidental-crouching problem, but I just like it better in general.
there should be third party ones. Joycons have been a thing since like the 90s where 3rd party people designed some interesting concepts. I seem to recall ps1 and pc have gotten controllers like this that ive seen
Been having major syncing issues with my joy con, switch is behind tv, where there’s a huge mass of cables, near my fish tank & router - I am not joking 😂 tips are much appreciated
I have heard that Zelda botw has better fps in flight mode. because the console doesn't use extra resources on searching for wifi signal and Zelda has therefore less fps-drops. Until Nintendo fixes this problem with a system update, I would recommend turning on flight-mode when playing Zelda.
www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-uses-dynamic-resolution-scaling "In the meantime, we've seen this intriguing report about WiFi potentially impacting Switch performance. While this could possibly affect some users, we've quickly retested a few Switch titles in flight mode and we're finding that this has no impact on our existing results. However, developer Shin'en Multimedia has highlighted a firmware issue that may improve performance and cut some dynamic resolution drops on its title - Fast RMX. We'll report back on any improvements in a future system software update once it rolls out."
Honestly, since I'm considering buying a Nintendo switch I have been looking around the Internet for some tips and tricks, and you my friend have been the best one! I just love your voice, it's perfect for RUclips. Your video layout of information is so simple but informative and of course, your information is super helpful! So thanks for this great video!
I actually decided to make the Switch my first physical collection device. Well, if you don't count older consoles where physical was the only option. Why? I never liked collecting disks. So easy to scratch, show signs of use right away. Cartridges seem to last forever. Better for collecting/resale. Switch game also have small boxes. It just seems like a good match. As an added bonus, Nintendo first party games at least don't seem to depreciate in value much. Also my carrying case comes with slots for games and also the onboard memory sucks.
@@declanquandt4831 They remove your copy that you've downloaded to your own storage? Wtf that's like taking your money and running. Just got my console. I'll have to remember that
I love the switch and you won’t regret it it’s just that I don’t have enough money to buy the good games but it’s Christmas so I’m asking for the games I want
Going digital sounds like a good idea on paper but on switch id rather have a bag full of games next to me because either the games take up counties worth of size in storage and/or you always need to have an internet connection to play most digital games
If you're gonna get a portable power bank you're gonna want to get the PD USB Type C RAVPower 26800mAh Power Bank. Since it supports PD same as the switch and has a type C input you can get a charge as fast as having it in the wall charger if you use a type c to c cable. Other portable power banks especially ones without a type c input won't charge it very fast.
I just wanted to mention that the joycon straps have a little white tab near where the actual straps are. Just flip that down and they slip right off, that’s why it’s easy to push the little things in when you were talking about how to get them off, that’s because they are attached to the little white tab... it gets locked on there SO IT DOESNT FLY OFF WHILE YOU ARE PLAYING. if you read this, I hope it improves YOUR switch experience.
If you need more than 128 GB it's probably cheaper to buy multiple 128 GB sd cards. 200 GB and 256 GB are so expensive! I wonder when we will see 2 TB cards that Nintendo promises the Switch will support. It would probably be super expensive though...
I have been keeping my switch digital and physical console in terms of games, I like the convenience of digital games however I can often get games a LOT cheaper as physical copies, generally no sales or drop in prices digitally but there’s always physical sales on games and 2nd hand games that work perfectly fine etc, means I save money which in turn means I buy more games 😁
I would go digital... if I could sell them if I change my mind..... and my husband and I share games, so digital isn't a cost effective way for us both to play the same games.
A) if you have guardian arrows, one in the eye is all you need. B) 2-handed power weapon & death spin. Take out the legs easy. C) Master Sword & START HACKING LIKE A MADMAN!!! D) shield deflect the Death Ray. My timing is Shit AF, but it can be done.
The cases on the physical games, are incredibly awesome with the graphics and all ...just having a hard time letting go.. Any game share pros, with buying digital?
Magical Constructs hmm debatable indeed. Game share and pay $40 for game, or go hard copy and pay $80 for game. It adds up especially when you have like 70 games for Xbox One like myself. I probably saved $2800 by going digital. If I had hard copies of all those games trading them in would probably only get me like $1 to $5 per game. We'll see how it is with the Switch, hopefully they make a proper account system soon so that you can game share.
George Khoshaba you can call it debatable, but its really opinion. If you dont have someone to game share with, its cheaper to go physical. Digital games hold $60 price tags long after theyre down to $20 physical. Also, you can get a lot better discounts physical. A new game physical is $48 as opposed to $60 at best buy. But ig if you have someone to game share with, you only have to buy every other game ig. It all depends on each persons situation and personal preference.
This guy pretty entertaining, while giving some Switch, as I am set to get mine this Black Friday 2018 with Mario Kart Bundle need all info I can get.. "Subscribed"
I've always wanted to get this system when it was released, but they were so limited in quantity that it just lost my interest of buying it. Now the hype is back and surely am getting one. These are great tips to get the most out of your system. Thanks for the vid
Thanks for the tip about the dark theme - aside from battery savings the white screen was just WAY too bright for my eyes so the black is so much more comfortable to look at.
OK people I got a switch case hack. this is for the people who think that the price of the real case is highway robbery. OK. to start out get a big piece of cloth (at least 3 times as big as the switch WITH the joy cons). place the switch onto a corner and outline it with a maker. do that once more right above your current outline. cut both of the outlines (together) and fold it over the switch. if the size is correct, here is the next step. make another outline of your switch, put the fabric over your switch on one of the halves of the past fold. glue the 3rd fabric square and you have a pocket to hold your switch. just use some strong tape to be able to seal the fabric case, and you have made your own switch case! this is just a hack I came up with when I found out the price for the case. I hope you random people looking in the comments enjoy the fabric case for your switch that is very easy to make!

Me and my friends and cousins were the "quarantine" age of Switch users. And we all just marveled how awesome it is for people who just need to chill put and play a console that you can bring around the house and the ease of downloading games from the store (as long as you have a good micro sd).
You don't dip your carts into salsa! You swoop and scoop. Remember, this next time. Swoop then scoop for the best carts and salsa experience. I'm just lookin' out for you, man.
Also remember to lick the carts for optimal taste.
I was hoping to see a salsa shark 🧐

Ordered the Zelda / Shovel Knight / Snipperclips bundle on 4/14. Tracking says it should be here today!
The dark theme won't save any battery. LCD screens use the same amount of power to display a completely white screen as a completely black screen. You might be thinking of OLED displays. Even then the black theme wouldn't save power since the theme is dark grey and only true black pixels save power in OLED displays since the black pixels are not powered.
Welp.... atleast it's still easier on the eyes >.
Thanks for the enlightment, didn't knew that before.
Very interesting!
Not 100% true. Many LCD panels today use active backlight systems. I don't know if the switch does, but there are tons of instances where a black background saves battery power on regular lcds.
I disliked so like me
The damn fish interfering with my joycon connection again.
You miss the tip of getting a screen protector
indeed, screan protector is-a-MUST
Víctor Emmanuel Meruelos González some people say they have no problem with that stuff, i couldnt get my hands on a switch so idk yet
its funny i just put it normally in the dock and no scratches whatsoever.. i slowly think that people who get their system scratched must be retarded or just dont care about their new devices and slam it in
roxxor3 same. I take mine in and out of the dock constantly and I havent gotten the slightest scratch on it yet. Putting the joycon on backwards is also just being entirely negligent.
T'Challa of course but that doesnt change the fact that the ppl that experience scratched switches are mistreating them heavily. ive just added 4 tiny cotton squares inside the dock and that solves everything.. and i have a protective film because its a freakin tablet
This is just my opinion and nothing more but... I feel like the switch is a bad choice to go 100% digital. I mean... at least get the big and heavy games on cartridges. No ? Maybe I'm crazy.
i have all games on cards (if possible).
and a 24 card case
Zhab80 i always like digital on handhelds
Zhab80 its always a bad choice to go 100% digital unless you're playing on pc
When you buy a game physically, you're buying the game. When you buy a game digitally, you're buying the right to download and play the game rather than the game itself. This means this right can be revoked in the future. If you delete the game and its later removed from the marketplace, you can no longer download and play that game. Its gone forever. If you buy a game physically, no one is coming to your house to take that game away from you.
Magical Constructs But later you can not Sale the game
@Magical Constructs you don't have to explain that kind of thing to me.
I bought a switch three years ago and for some reason here I'm three years later watching this video again
"Just dip the cartridge in some salsa!" Great idea my favorite one 😂
Having a collection is amazing. It just feels great to open a box and have that feeling of a new game
its also a good idea to play the games with your eyes closed for a minute or two just to feel the hd rumble. its a great experience.
Uhm.... You can't feel things with your eyes open? You should probably go see a doctor.
@@Krytern well i hope that this wasnt a joke (BUT IF IT WAS TELL ME) but when you close your eyes you can feel the other senses more
I personally don't recommend the salsa for the cartridge's get some peanut butter instead it tastes better
ParaNoki 💀💀💀😂😂😂😂😂
ParaNoki 😂😂😂
I dip mine in chocolate. Covers up the shit flavor.
Peanut butter? Dats wack bro, I use sriracha
Im finnaly gonna get one this friday after 3 yrs :> super happy rn
just got mines a week ago
Ayy congrats
I love my Pro controller! When I first got my Switch, I kept accidentally crouching in Zelda, especially during combat. The Pro controller was supposedly less sensitive, so I bought one. Not only did it eliminate the accidental-crouching problem, but I just like it better in general.
How long do you think until someone has the joycons be able to work on pc?
Top Dawg I think they work on a PC out of the box. I know the Pro Controller does and I'm sure they do, too.
yeah they work out of the box according to gamespot, or was it IGN?
They work now
pro controller and joycon work but no amiibo nfc or gyro on pc and android for the moment (need drivers)
there should be third party ones. Joycons have been a thing since like the 90s where 3rd party people designed some interesting concepts. I seem to recall ps1 and pc have gotten controllers like this that ive seen
thanks man. love the slight humor. your speech speed is just fast enough love it!!!
Been having major syncing issues with my joy con, switch is behind tv, where there’s a huge mass of cables, near my fish tank & router - I am not joking 😂 tips are much appreciated
Did moving it fix your issues?

I have heard that Zelda botw has better fps in flight mode. because the console doesn't use extra resources on searching for wifi signal and Zelda has therefore less fps-drops. Until Nintendo fixes this problem with a system update, I would recommend turning on flight-mode when playing Zelda.
www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-uses-dynamic-resolution-scaling
"In the meantime, we've seen this intriguing report about WiFi potentially impacting Switch performance. While this could possibly affect some users, we've quickly retested a few Switch titles in flight mode and we're finding that this has no impact on our existing results. However, developer Shin'en Multimedia has highlighted a firmware issue that may improve performance and cut some dynamic resolution drops on its title - Fast RMX. We'll report back on any improvements in a future system software update once it rolls out."

"Get some multiplayer games to show to your friends" i have no friends
Well get some friends
This is the first video I’ve seen of yours. I’m subbing and laughing my ass off. You seem to have the same surreal sense of humor I do :)
Honestly, since I'm considering buying a Nintendo switch I have been looking around the Internet for some tips and tricks, and you my friend have been the best one! I just love your voice, it's perfect for RUclips. Your video layout of information is so simple but informative and of course, your information is super helpful! So thanks for this great video!
I actually decided to make the Switch my first physical collection device. Well, if you don't count older consoles where physical was the only option. Why? I never liked collecting disks. So easy to scratch, show signs of use right away. Cartridges seem to last forever. Better for collecting/resale. Switch game also have small boxes. It just seems like a good match. As an added bonus, Nintendo first party games at least don't seem to depreciate in value much. Also my carrying case comes with slots for games and also the onboard memory sucks.
Amen. Also, the digital cost of games are so much more
Exactly, you could probably fit 30 carts in one pocket and just buy them used cheaper.
And if Nintendo removes the game from the shop and u don’t have it hard copy you won’t be able to play it because they remove it from ur device
There are a lot of indie/retro games that are only available in the online shop.
@@declanquandt4831 They remove your copy that you've downloaded to your own storage? Wtf that's like taking your money and running. Just got my console. I'll have to remember that
Im getting a Nintendo switch soon and u told me lots that will help me out
I love the switch and you won’t regret it it’s just that I don’t have enough money to buy the good games but it’s Christmas so I’m asking for the games I want
Who else is watching this in 2020 still waiting for a switch to have
Who else never gets a switch from their parents but still watches videos like this
Going digital sounds like a good idea on paper but on switch id rather have a bag full of games next to me because either the games take up counties worth of size in storage and/or you always need to have an internet connection to play most digital games
Bomberman worth $50, I don't fucking think so.
He said $20 For Bomberman it was $50 for 1 2 Switch.
Nope, google it, bomber man is $50 It was the snipperclips game that was $20.
Yea, no way. Way too expensive.
Haha hell no 😭
I don't think bomberman was ever worth that much ever before.

If you're gonna get a portable power bank you're gonna want to get the PD USB Type C RAVPower 26800mAh Power Bank.
Since it supports PD same as the switch and has a type C input you can get a charge as fast as having it in the wall charger if you use a type c to c cable.
Other portable power banks especially ones without a type c input won't charge it very fast.
It's nice to finally see somebody that does gaming report that isn't really annoying good job bro
2019 almost 2020. Now that it’s been out for a while what has changed in this list? What has been added to it and has something been removed from it?
Random Ness ok
did u get a switch
"It's a bit steep at $70"
for a sec I thought you were talking about bomberman and was like "woahwhat"
I just wanted to mention that the joycon straps have a little white tab near where the actual straps are. Just flip that down and they slip right off, that’s why it’s easy to push the little things in when you were talking about how to get them off, that’s because they are attached to the little white tab... it gets locked on there SO IT DOESNT FLY OFF WHILE YOU ARE PLAYING. if you read this, I hope it improves YOUR switch experience.
If you need more than 128 GB it's probably cheaper to buy multiple 128 GB sd cards. 200 GB and 256 GB are so expensive! I wonder when we will see 2 TB cards that Nintendo promises the Switch will support. It would probably be super expensive though...
At one point we would bassicaly pay another switch
hello aincent comment
my advice: get a 400gb on Amazon Black Friday, is relatively cheap
@@Crusty783 I'd argue that my advice was valid 4 years ago but now I myself have upgraded from my 128 GB card to a 400 GB one.
Now I can finally die in peace after purchasing a Nintendo Switch. 😅
We need knife reviewers with your charisma. Very entertaining video and helped me pull the trigger for my boys birthday. Thanks man.
I have been keeping my switch digital and physical console in terms of games, I like the convenience of digital games however I can often get games a LOT cheaper as physical copies, generally no sales or drop in prices digitally but there’s always physical sales on games and 2nd hand games that work perfectly fine etc, means I save money which in turn means I buy more games 😁
Can you make a "how to afford an actual Nintendo switch" too?
It's called "get a job"
@@joshgiannini1804 hahahaha! Hell yes it is, they are not that expensive!
@@medbal2989 well in some countries, the Nintendo switch is almost 10 times the price in usa.

Anyone else watching without a switch?
Lugi323 me 😞
Lugi323 me
Lugi323 me but I'm getting one soon
UltraChrissyS 4 same, hopefully
Yup
I would go digital... if I could sell them if I change my mind..... and my husband and I share games, so digital isn't a cost effective way for us both to play the same games.
As a switch player and minimalist. Your videos light up my life lol
I miss this old set up, pin this old man
Loved the video just for the BomberMan moments. "Yeah! Bomber Man!"
I still can't believe how far we have come since this video came out
"So you just got yourself a Switch."
If I had a nickel for every time he said that.
im getting one soon hopefully
I have been playing Zelda on my Wii U and man is it fun! finally found out how to kill those damn guardians!
I'm currently trying to figure out how to destroy those red rocks in Eldin. I've been at it for 3 hours now.
Red Rocks? Where Yunobo is at?
As soon as you get the hang of it guardian s are easy to kill.
A) if you have guardian arrows, one in the eye is all you need.
B) 2-handed power weapon & death spin. Take out the legs easy.
C) Master Sword & START HACKING LIKE A MADMAN!!!
D) shield deflect the Death Ray. My timing is Shit AF, but it can be done.
D) is the best method, AND if you turn the sound up right before the ray fires you hear a *ding*. Right as you hear the ding, put your shield up!
Got mine today. Pretty cool! Tired from work but can't wait to play! I already have three games. Can't wait to play tonite outside! Summer is coming!
The cases on the physical games, are incredibly awesome with the graphics and all ...just having a hard time letting go.. Any game share pros, with buying digital?
You cant game share on switch. Also, its better to buy games physically than to rent games digitally, so keep doing what you're doing.
Magical Constructs hmm debatable indeed. Game share and pay $40 for game, or go hard copy and pay $80 for game. It adds up especially when you have like 70 games for Xbox One like myself. I probably saved $2800 by going digital. If I had hard copies of all those games trading them in would probably only get me like $1 to $5 per game. We'll see how it is with the Switch, hopefully they make a proper account system soon so that you can game share.
George Khoshaba you can call it debatable, but its really opinion. If you dont have someone to game share with, its cheaper to go physical. Digital games hold $60 price tags long after theyre down to $20 physical. Also, you can get a lot better discounts physical. A new game physical is $48 as opposed to $60 at best buy. But ig if you have someone to game share with, you only have to buy every other game ig. It all depends on each persons situation and personal preference.
If i'm paying 60 dollars for mario cart, i want the goddarn plastic case.
ZELDA BREATH OF THE WILD IS MY FAVOUTITE GAME EVER

The dark team doesn't make a difference because it's not an OLED screen, so everything fires up anyways
But the aesthetic is so much better
I LOVE DARK THEMES!
I've always wanted to get this system when it was released, but they were so limited in quantity that it just lost my interest of buying it.
Now the hype is back and surely am getting one. These are great tips to get the most out of your system. Thanks for the vid
I'm surprised it's been 2 years.
These days a 256 gb sd card is like $40 lol.
Thanks for the tip about the dark theme - aside from battery savings the white screen was just WAY too bright for my eyes so the black is so much more comfortable to look at.
I got my sandisk 128 go for 20 dollars on amazon on sale
OK people I got a switch case hack. this is for the people who think that the price of the real case is highway robbery. OK. to start out get a big piece of cloth (at least 3 times as big as the switch WITH the joy cons). place the switch onto a corner and outline it with a maker. do that once more right above your current outline. cut both of the outlines (together) and fold it over the switch. if the size is correct, here is the next step. make another outline of your switch, put the fabric over your switch on one of the halves of the past fold. glue the 3rd fabric square and you have a pocket to hold your switch. just use some strong tape to be able to seal the fabric case, and you have made your own switch case! this is just a hack I came up with when I found out the price for the case. I hope you random people looking in the comments enjoy the fabric case for your switch that is very easy to make!
Graeme Hepoenstall I don't have a switch but this sounds sick.
jackalot irl vids neither do I but I just thought that this hack would work for people who do have a switch
Thx love picking mine up today
The case is not that expensive
>tape fabric around a switch for protection
Your videos are super informative and helpful. Keep up the good work!
