A Switch in Time (General Switch Chat II)

I can highly recommend the Pro Controller - very comfortable to hold and use.

Plus, it doesn't lose the rumble and Amiibo functionality of the JoyCon, so it's got it all!

But is it WORTH £7(0)?

Yeah and like I've said before look at the price of a Xbox One controller which is £40 for the most standard controller on the market then add on built in battery which has a decent charge, HD Rumble, motion control stuff and NFC reader.

Then yeah worth the £60

I'd say so. I'm pretty sure the controller held about 40 hours of charge - I used it for most of my time with Zelda and only had to recharge it for the first time a couple of days ago. Add that with the extra features Mas mentioned and you've got yourself a damn fine controller.

I like Pro Controllers - they're comfy and easy to wear! They're also in the top percentage of Rattata Pro Controllers.

Username change to "Youngster Jay" incoming.

Even though it sounds great I think I can hold off on getting one until Spla2n arrives.

I don't think there's any hurry, the JCG is grand, but I know I'll want control options when the multiplayer games roll in so I'm stocking up now.

I'll look into a pro around the time Mario drops. Love the joycons but I wouldn't mind something more traditional for games that require some precision.

I noticed that my Activity Log updated today to show off the fact I've played Breath of the Wild for "over 55 hours". It's not very accurate, is it? I mean, it thinks I've played Shovel Knight for only "a few minutes", but I'm pretty sure I've played it for a few hours now. I hope we get a more precise Activity Log like on 3DS and Wii U down the line.

Maybe the App will tell us like the Parental Control one does at the moment.

Yeah, mine said 40 and then I played it for an hour and it said 45. Maybe the vagueries of switching screens, going into the home screen, sleep mode and so on put them off pretending to be any more accurate than 5 hour chunks.

The Pro Controller feels so nice in the hands. It might end up replacing the gamecube pad as my favourite controller of all time. It doesn't have the analogue triggers or the big colourful A button, which were very pleasing, but it feels like sexual chocolate in my hands. Seriously, from the moment I picked up the pro it just felt amazing to hold, contoured to my hands as though I'd had it custom made. I was playing Zelda on it within seconds as though I'd been using it my whole life. Gorgeous.

And I was happy with the Joy-Con grip! That was a lovely little controller, but this is just something else.

So it's alright, then?

I absolutely loved the Pro Controller when I tried so I'm itching to buy one when I get the chance, quite happy with the JoyCons of course but based on my feel of it, I'd go ahead and say it's the best controller ever.

High praise for the Pro it is up their with DS4, Cube and 360 controllers.

You may have seen but seems to be some hints that South Park Fractured Butt-Whole is coming to Switch, that would be a fantastic on the go game.

I've had that on pre-order on ps4 for ages & the only way I'd swap formats is if Switch also got Stick of truth. (which I have as a bonus on this order)

I think I'd prefer to play fart noise McGee at home with an ample supply of cheesy poofs and free reign to laugh as hard as I want.

I ordered myself a LAN adapter as I've been getting either no signal or a very poor one the last 3 - 4 days & I can't be having that when the Spla2n testfire starts plus I also ordered this case.

Did anyone take the Switch survey sent by Ninty? Out of interest, what star ratings did you give what games? I did:

BotW 5/5
12S 1/5
Snipperclips 4/5

and was then really disappointed when there was no longer series of Snipperclips questions.

Secret of Mana collection coming June in Japan at the moment of these classic RPGS from Square Enix who seem to be outside Nintendo giving the most love to the Switch.

I don't think I've ever actually played any of the Mana games, so this might deserve a look.

Hopefully it gets a English release or it plays in English like some games.
