If you weren't excited by anything from today's Nindies event then you don't like video games! So many titles coming from up-and-coming publishers but in particular I can't wait for Yooka-Laylee, Toejam & Earl, and Snake Pass. They showed TJ&E today? Must've missed it if they did. It was not a part of the presentation, but it was announced afterwards.

I'm excited for SteamWorld Dig 2, Overcooked! Special Edition, Shakedown: Hawaii, Pocket Rumble, Snake Pass, and Yooka-Laylee, among others.

Anyone else pick it up last night? I played about an hour of Breath of the Wild before passing out. Hoping to get a bit more time in today when I finish work.

I couldn't make the midnight release because I worked until 11:30, and my paycheck didn't clear until 1:00 A.M. But I picked it up this morning along with Bomberman and Zelda. I love it.

I just used my hour lunch to play as I brought it with me. Two hours in and not even done on the Plateau. The carrying case that I got looks a bit like a purse,but I really don't care. You'll have to say how Bomberman is because I didn't really consider it as I'm not familiar with the franchise.

Anyone else having trouble connecting it to their Wi-Fi? Mine is right where I used to have my Wii U (which never had any problems), and it doesn't even get 1 bar. This has been such an annoying 24 hours as I just don't know what I can do to fix this issue.

I'm starting to think I have a factory error Switch because this problem seems to be uncommon, but I have seen others complaining about it. As for the games on the Switch, I'm loving Zelda and Super Bomberman R is fun also (can't really enjoy online much though for SBMR) We had a party night with it tonight and had it hooked up in the same room with the router and it only had 2 bars in there, but we all had a blast with 1-2 Switch (it does make for a fun party game, but should have been packaged with the Switch probably).

This has been such an annoying 24 hours as I just don't know what I can do to fix this issue. I have had issues. Setting up it wouldn't detect my router initially. Had to search a few times before it would recognize it. Next day I went to the eShop to purchase Snipperclips and there was no connection. Everything else in my house was connected to WiFi just fine. Rebooted the router a couple times and finally got a connection. Was out of town most of the remainder of the weekend so haven't had the chance to see if its still acting up.

I literally did nothing but play Zelda all weekend and I feel like I didn't even make a dent.

There has been reports all over the internet about the poor Wi-Fi strength the Switch has. I had to take the console and put it near my router so it could do the system and Zelda update. I hope they figure this out because it is the only thing that does not connect to the router in my house so there is no way I am messing with my router settings for it. I can see this really hurting Nintendo's paid online service if it is a hardware issue that cannot be fixed with a simple update.
On another note I am loving Zelda! There is just so much to do in this game and I plan on exploring every nook and cranny so it will keep me busy until Mario Kart comes out.

Not had any issues with my wi-fi yet *touches wood*. Put about 10 hours into Zelda yesterday/this morning and absolutely love it! While the graphic drop in handheld mode is noticeable, it still looks beautiful due to the art style of the game! Wouldn't be surprised if it won Game of the Year.

GameStop guy today told me they're doing ship to home bundles but they won't be available to ship till the end of April.
Nintendo really bungled this release.

I love Nintendo, but in all honesty I would have been shocked if they had not messed up the release. Hopefully they will have a crap ton of consoles for when Mario Kart 8 comes out. While it is only two games, Mario Kart 8 and Zelda will probably be enough for a guy on the fence to make the jump to the Switch.
