What they should’ve done in the first place was to store your online progress, well, online! But because they were dumb enough to store it locally, now they’re stuck. you're right actually. I really don't know why it wasn't like this already.
Mandalore Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 Looking to get my Switch hardwired to my router, it's been a very long time since I did anything with networks or cables though. Could do with some recommendations... LAN adaptor - The official one seems pricey, will any 3rd party one do? Network cable - Think I'll need about 15m, will any old network cable do or should I get a particular speed/type? Network hub - I might as well plug up my PS4 and 360 up too, what's the best value option?
Dufniall Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 For the USB to ethernet adapter a lot of them work, but I think this one is used a lot as it's cheap on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MYTSN18/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 For a cable I think a Cat5e cable is good enough, unless you will have a lot of them running alongside each other, then go for a Cat6 cable. Don't know brands of these, there is difference in quality but I used the one that came with my modem/router. Finally the network hub. I've got a Sitecom 5 port switch meaning 1 in and 4 out. I've got a gigabit one. Other good brands are TP Link, Netgear or Linksys. I think this is the one I have, sorry for the Dutch website: https://www.sitecom.com/nl/gigabit-switch-5-port/ln-120/p/81 1
Ronnie Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Love these new artworks, from Yoichi Kotabe (I assume it's still him doing them and not someone new copying his style) 2

Network hub - I might as well plug up my PS4 and 360 up too, what's the best value option? I bought this LAN adptor last year and would highly recommend it. It made a huge difference to online on the switch for me. For example, my router is in the same room as my switch and yet with the Switch's WiFi normally gets 2 bars no matter where I move it to. There is nothing else in my room that should be causing any interference with the signal so i have to assume its the Switch's wifi that's the cause. Another thing is I used to get disconnected quite frequently in Splatoon 2 and have issues with latency mid-game, I never have that problem now at all. Also the internet speeds when using WiFi were 1/4 of what they should be (you can run a speed test in the Switch's menu). USB adapter seemed to fix all of that. Edited September 14, 2018 by Helmsly 1
Ronnie Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) This'll sell a few. First time Nintendo have done a bundle for a third party game? Edited September 18, 2018 by Ronnie
S.C.G Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 It might sell a few but damn... that is one horrible looking Switch bundle box. 1
Glen-i Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Had to do a double take at first because I thought they were really having the audacity to have a bundle with a game that's free to download!
Ronnie Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 I've no idea how much "in game items and 1000 V bucks" are worth. I keep being tempted to get into Fortnite on Switch but I imagine I'm prob too late now.
Dufniall Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Well, the box says Full Game download. Which is an empty statement for a free game. And of course the full game of Fortnite includes Save The World as well but the Switch only has the Battle Royale part. So Save The World confirmed?

Mandalore Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 6 new Captain Toad profile pictures, Nintendo couldn't have timed it better if they tried. 2 3 1
Julius Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Colorware have gone all the way and have finally gone ahead and painted an NES-inspired Switch. They also have an American SNES-inspired Switch, too. The price tag is steep, though, at $599. There are also Joy-Cons and Pro Controllers with these themes being sold separately. Not really a fan of the SNES one, but I think the NES one looks pretty sleek. C’mon Nintendo, just hurry up and give us some more colour variants for the Switch... 2

Esequiel Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 So - I’m pretty much done with the switch now... where’s the best place to get rid of it? CEX is fine for the console but I don’t want to sell Mario Kart, Mario odyssey, 1-2 switch, Sega sonic collection and whatever else for £20 lol

Esequiel Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 I was just waiting for the online and it’s just not anything that interests me! i tend not to rebuy anyway and it’s been sat for a few mo the now, I only built the fishing rod with labo aswell!
