    Afternoon, has anyone picked up one of the new batch of the Animal Crossing Swiches?  I have now had three, all need to be returned since the left Joy-con has a faulty join at the bottom resulting in the Joycon being uncomfortable to hold, especially for long periods.  Anyone else had some issues?

    It's always your account playing, you're not sharing it with another persons account.  It's no more "sharing" than handing someone your console and letting them play on your profile.    As far as I  can tell, every other platform  holder lets you share your purchases across  a family group (or similar) - that's peoples expectation of sharing digital purchases.

    New update just hit:

     

    It looks like you can share your digital games among more then one console now:

    It's not really "game sharing"; despite Gamexplain insisting it is.  You have a primary Switch (on which all accounts can play, as they could before), you can now log into a secondary Switch where only you can play your digital games - other account holders/profiles are blocked from doing so.  As a workaround, others could play on YOUR profile (allthough this  blocks you from playing on your Primary Switch).  You don't share you games library, which is a shame as far as I'm concerned;  Nintendo wanted Switch to evolve to a personal device for every member of the family - something that will not be acheived if families cannot share a games library.

    Can't believe they are showing Smash again. They dedicated 25 mins of the Direct to it, played it at the start of the Treehouse and have fired it back up again. Show something else!

    They have nothing else to show!

    A lame Direct, a really poor showing.   With Nintendo getting the big guns out last year, we really needed a statement of intent today. What we got was a couple of low tier announcements and a handful of reminders. Disappointing.

    People really should have changed their expectations when the Go branding was leaked; you can blame no one for your disappointment but yourselves :laughing:  It was clear that this was going to be something different at that point.  I think it looks a great entry/re-entry point to the Pokemon series; it's (perhaps) not aimed at the current Pokefans, but the Go audience of casual and lapsed players and plays to the strengths of that.  That's a good thing, Go has invigorated the brand and there's lots of people who might welcome a casual experience on a home console.  

    Year after year I have said i'll get the next Pokemon and never do.  So i'll say it again, i''m going to buy this.

    Just got back from my holiday and my switch didn't make it back with me... Think, hope, I left it on the plane, only chance I have of it getting it back. Was fucking gagging to play Splatoon 2 tonight as well...

    I'm presuming it won't be difficult for me to redownload all my games again? just no game data - damn you Nintendo and no cloud saves....

    Also damn them for the console being sold out everywhere still if I need to buy a new one...

    Devastated for you.

    I'm pretty sure that if left on the plane staff would hand it in as lost property. General public will be too eager to get off the plane to look for forgotten items to half-inch.

    It demonstrates the need for save backups for Switch. This is something even the 3DS had (albeit a faff to use, but it's something). This should be a priority for Nintendo; we don't need cryptic comments from Reggie, we need a concrete answer as to why Switch didn't launch with save back ups and what they'll do (and when) to fix this. For most people the system is insured and could be replaced. The saves are not replaceable.

    @MindFreak You can't expect people just to buy it; people feel pretty cheated by the move. It's arriving later and at an inflated cost which has not been sufficiently justified. If people choose not to buy that's fine because that's their perogative as a consumer.

     

    I'll be picking it up, sometime, when it's discounted by £10.
