Sent the Switch off to be checked for the left joycon. It's not terrible but it did annoy me enough to send it off before Splatoon 2. Also my battery problem seems to be the indicator. I played it for 3 hours with the battery indicator saying it had 1% charge. So since I would be without joycons I thought I'd just pack in the switch to be looked at too.

Really had a wow moment yesterday when I was cooking waiting for some rice to boil when I got bored, popped to the living room, then grabbed the switch and was playing in the kitchen. I love how personal the Switch feels. It feels like MY device, which sounds stupid because everything I buy is mine. But it feels oddly personal in a way no system ever has for me - in that you can take it anywhere and play anywhere, so much so that it feels very personal and special - if only there were more games to play on it. The joyconn and battery issue have however impaired my enjoyment of it, as well as not being able to order a 2nd dock yet here in the UK.

Why would it mention 3DS? Splatoon 3DS?

I guess because even though Arms and Splatoon 2 are the focus of the direct they will also have other games featured in the direct.

I sure hope so.

Will Robio be at the convention too?

Hummer....teehee!

I started playing Vanquish.

It's cool and all, but I'm not feeling the "one of the best shooters ever" shit. It seems like a typical Platinum Games game that people jerk off to and act like it's a million times better than it really is because it's the godly ex-Capcom guys making it. It's cool, the main character is hilarious in the same way that the guy in Far Cry Blood Dragon is hilarious. The other characters, environments, and music are generic as hell...but the gameplay is fun. It feels like a game that was supposed to come out for the Dreamcast to me, but didn't see the light of day until the 360.

Yeah it's a fine shooter, but nothing crazy.

"The PC market is huge and can definitely not be ignored. We are absolutely aware of that, and we’ve always felt this way," a spokesperson for Platinum told PC Gamer. "We’ve always had a positive stance towards porting our titles to PC, but the decisions as to which platforms we release our games on, and which platforms are the main focus for the games we make are largely made by the publishers, so this is not something we can decide on our own.

"However, most third party publishers nowadays realize the PC should not be ignored, so I believe we should be able to become more actively involved in the PC market from here on out."

Ooooh!
