    Bring Switch on flight or leave at home?

    Either way I fear it will get stolen if someone breaks in the house, or if a pickpocket or something steals it. I will be going to the UK from US.

    Gifting game you own?

    Is it possible to gift a game I already own to someone else's Switch?

    I got the game on pc now, so I don't really need it on Switch.

    Anyone know what game this is? Looks to be some sort of train simulator.

    Saw this on an Austin Evans YouTube video and can’t seem to find the name of the game mentioned anywhere.

    Yo, the mainline of Pokémon Games need an experienced player mode.

    The prompts are so slow and as far as I remember having not played since OG Diamond and Pearl on DS, the current Pokémon games are no different. I’m not speaking of the story, that’s fine, but I’m talking about the Pokémon battle starts/ends vs fainting or catching and more. Just so so so much that’s needs to be pressed B or A through to get back to playing.

    Discoloration glitch- can someone help?

    Pic related. So about an hour ago I played on my switch. Then I turned it off and went out. Came back 10 minutes ago, turned on the Switch, and this is what I see. Is anyone familiar with this glitch?

    1. I tried restarting
    2. I tried unplugging and replugging the HDMI / power supply into the dock
    3. I tried plugging into a different HDMI port on my tv
    4. I tested plugging my laptop into the TV on the same HDMI cord and have had no issue.

    I bought this Switch in 2019 fwiw. Any advice?

    anyone know what this switch controller is?

    i've been looking at it for awhile and have been thinking of picking it up from a seller since they're selling it for a good price and also because it seems to be sold out everywhere, but because of that identifying this controller has been very difficult for me, I can't tell if its just a special edition pro controller or another model like the powerA or horipad

    LEGO Star Wars save point?

    My kid insists he can’t save mid level. That he HAS to keep playing to a save point.

    Is that right?

    Can the Switch screen be repaired?

    Bit hard to see...but those two marks on my screen are where my cat tried to eat it. Is it financially sensible to repair the screen or should I just bite the bullet and get a new Switch? This is the Animal Crossing Switch so I'd rather repair if necessary but not if it's gonna cost an exorbitant amount.

    OLED: Can you upgrade the internal storage?

    Can you open a Switch OLED and upgrade the internal storage with an SSD? Such as with the Steam Deck?

    Sorry for the noob question and if this has been posted before, but I can't find anything on the internet about this

    Is this Zelda Pro Controller original?

    I found one on a marketplace and I am not sure if it's original. I am not sure about the white circles around the X-button. They should not overlap the golden ones on the left?

    Thanks

    Ya no quiero que mi ex pueda jugar con los juegos de Nintendo switch que YO pague. Que hago para que ya no pueda?

    Hace unos meses me enteré que mi novio (male34) de 8 años tenía otra novia (con ella estuvo 4 años). El y yo comprábamos consolas y juegos juntos (yo pagaba las consolas y el los juegos) Desde que me enteré del engaño no hemos hablado. Como el esta fuera del país. yo tengo todas las consolas menos el switch Recién me compre un switch para mi. Por que es la consola que mas jugaba y la verdad si extraño jugar. Pero quiero que el ya no pueda jugar los juegos digitales que Yo compre. Son juegos de niña. Seguro no le importan. Saben cómo puedo hacer eso? Puedo restringir el acceso de esos juegos? O solo con cambiar la contraseña sería suficiente? Gracias por su apoyo

    Switch Lite shell swap

    Got a sweet deal on a beat up grey switch lite from a garage sale. Sold it to me for $75! Gave it a new life with a new shell and buttons.

    Super happy how it came out! I think hardest part of the whole shell swap is keeping tabs of what screws go where. lol

    Any indie game recommendations is much appreciated! 😎

    Slave Zero X on Switch? How is it?

    Hey, I'm really looking into this game Slave Zero X, it seems really up my ally, but my question for anyone who has played a good amount of this game.. how is the framerate on switch? Bad enough to kill the experience? I don't mind dips here and there, but is it bad enough that I'm going to die bc of this alone?

    Tldr: how is framerate for this game on Switch? Anyone who's played a few hours let me know, I really want to try it out, but I'm on the fence. Thanks! 😅
