I don't even need 3d, just use the same engine/animation from Link's awakening and I'm set.



That would take much more work. The engine and entire game is already done on 3ds.

The new Rainbow Road is insane. Probably the best Mario Kart track of all time and there isn't a close 2nd

Also won my first attempt at online knockout tour

I totally get that.

I started both OOT & Majora's Mask on the Switch Online library (Now Nintendo Classics) and haven't been able to get more than 2-3 hours into either. Neither one really grabbed me, and I know it's the graphics that are the hang-up.

Never played Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword either.

Target order was showing that my Switch 2 MK bundle preorder would be delivered on the 11th. So I went over to gamestop and preordered one on Wednesday, picked up yesterday. My dumb arse forgets to cancel the Target preorder and I come home today to find it delivered.

To this point, knockout mode of MKW has been my favorite. I cruised through all of the cups in the 50cc mode this afternoon.

My April 24th Gamestop pre-order is still on the road in a truck somewhere in Arkansas with a scheduled delivery of Sunday...

Tracking has showed it in Chicago all day. If Fex Ex could have held it I would have just driven the 2 hours out there and picked the damned thing up. Fingers crossed it actually shows up tomorrow as estimated.

I'll tell you think much, I will never buy anything from Gamestop again.

Apparently the Internet is obsessed with Moo Moo Cow on Mario Kart.

For those playing - make sure to pick up the gold To Go bags from the Yoshi's drive thru in the intermission tracks. That's one of the ways you can unlock alternate skins for your chosen driver avatar.

Others appear to be based on trying specific Cups.

Is there a decent guide out yet on how each locked character is unlocked?

They appear to be random based on picking up the Yoshi bags.

I despise FedEx. I'm not sure if i just have shite for luck, but everything that's ever been shipped to me by FedEx shows up anywhere from two days to two weeks late. A couple of times, they've shipped things to a completely different address in a different state. I ordered a solo stove back in September, and they sent it to a wrong address in my city. They said I signed for it when it was delivered, but the name they had on file was a completely different name. FedEx just doesn't care about anything.

Yep, now past their estimated delivery window and the last scan was it departing Chicago almost 20 hours ago. (Chicago is a 2 hour drive from the regional distribution warehouse here in South Bend).

At this point I don't expect it until tomorrow at best. I really hope Gamestop sends me a survey email, but I doubt they care.

I’m under a Family Plan Membership ($79.99 one) a friend got and every time I launch the GameCube, 64, SNES, etc tiles on Switch 2 I get the message “Checking if the software can be played.”

My account is the primary account as I confirmed in the eShop (fiancé has other account she made).

Am I getting this message because I’m under the membership and didn’t directly purchase it myself or is this just normal? Doesn’t do that for Mario Kart which came bundled with my system and is attached as a virtual game card to my account.

Their membership stuff and how everything works is so confusing, and they just recently made it even more difficult.

Side note, I didn't realize the GameCube was just for Switch 2. So basically I could download and play those games on my Wii U no problem, but they just skipped an entire console to make it exclusive on the 2. Friggin Nintendo....

Not being able to share all titles across various accounts verified on a given NSO Family Group is baffling to me.

At a minimum, the easiest workaround would be to allow an expanded number of virtual game cards shared between members of a Family Group.

Last thing I played last night before shutting it down for the night.

Not sure if this would help or not, but I saw a video yesterday that said you should also update your Switch2 to be your primary device in the system settings if you had previously had everything on another Switch. It sounded like this was different than something you do on the eshop.

Another setting it said you should do, if you play on handheld mode a lot, is to go to battery settings and make it only charge to 90%. They made it sound like it would greatly increase the battery life instead of eventually not being able to hold a charge well.
