We have moved across the post-launch discussions about the machine and intend for this to be the general general Switch thread going forward. We have also closed the Other Switch Thread in the other console forum. That topic was created because people felt they couldn't openly and honestly discuss and criticise the NX/Switch and while it was not what we felt was necessarily best, we understand members felt a need for it. We are now asking that as the console has launched and we know about it more and what its pros and cons are, any discussions are done in this thread. Be courteous of others when discussing and ask for clarification if something seems wrong or 'absurd' to you. Please respect that others may think differently to you. Those that are being obstructive or insulting will be contacted and if it continues will find themselves banned from the thread and, if necessary, further action will be taken.

Fans of GoldenEye may be interested in this:

A little while ago I decided to sign up to a personal trainer course because I've had enough of sitting in front of a computer all the time (I'm typing this on my phone so it's fine) and wanted to try something new. Not 100% sure if I'm going to ultimately do that or it'll just be a self improvement thing I take into my own training but figured it was worth trying out but if it does work out that'll be a considerable career change for me and the first time I've really changed careers. Since my postgraduate I've bumped around higher education and so this would be quite a change but I was supposed to be traveling for a year from March 2020 but something happened... And then after that I was going to figure out what I was doing and the pandemic just made me realise how unfulfilling my work is. Anyway, anyone else changed careers?

I'm sorry are we supposed to just skip over "flappy paddles"?

I did it once years ago on a date and enjoyed it (the bouldering, the date was mediocre) and keep meaning to go again but never have.

Being an adult sucks sometimes.

Oh it seems it's available on all the consoles. Only saw it on the PlayStation Twitter account but in hindsight it didn't say exclusive. It was early and I'm tired.

Well this looks charming as heck

I guess "did not" is correct as it's past tense and "would not" is another (conditional?) but honestly either are used in at least a colloquial sense. Actually thinking about it, I think would not is used for habitual actions but it's a minor point. And i guess technically "had not" is correct but language is about being understood so meh to correct. Not sure why I'm thinking about this so much.

Could try and force their hand by getting some quotes now and hope it'll scare them off.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was just quietly binned. Sounds pretty rubbish.

I watched a bit but wasn't feeling it (one of those times where you're not really watching). Will give it another go. Abbott Elementary was released last week too. Heard good things about it and watched the first episode and got Parks and Recreation vibes.

Maybe Microsoft is doing it instead.

I did see a rumour on Twitter earlier (but the search is being rubbish so can't find it) that a controller will be released alongside the soon-to-be-announced Goldeneye port. Pinch of salt of course. Oh I found it

Back (essentially) by popular demand. However, remember some purchases can warrant their own thread. Don't be afraid to make new threads and all that! Along those lines we may thrip from time to time.

@Jonnas I saw that Lidl tweet and thought "it evolves... Through death?" because that's how olive oil is made. Plus my Spanish friend did clarify me on the dish/piglet thing and I plead vegetarian ignorance (and disgust) 😋 @Glen-i if you do want to draw them then this tweet should help clarify the starting point: Phallic shape and potentially motorcycles. Just how fragile is the Iberian sense of masculinity?

The joys of colonialism comes to Pokémon.

Lechón is a pork dish popular in Spanish so Lechón + Chonk. It's at least fitting the region. The names are silly but so is Pokémon if we're honest.

And Smolive

Telling everyone else they're rubbish? *Ashley ran away*

Feel obliged to tag @RedShell as it feels like his jam

Think of all the house plants you could buy!

Was reminded of the original DS design and oh boy is it ugly But it is of course it's not alone so let's be all playground again and argue about which console has the worst design. One off promotional designs qualify too.
