On the rare occasion that I have the time, I sometimes play Stellaris. (I’ve never played till the end though, I couldn’t sustain attention THAT long, especially given all the BS they keep doing to the game mechanics so often it makes strategizing impossible in the long run unless you dedicate your life to the game.)
I hear you can get a replacement digital stick on amazon for the existing switch consoles. If the white ones that came with my oled switch ever get that drifting problem, I’m gonna buy one of those replacement stick components and send it and the drifting joycon to a tech repair shop I know of (that guy might have repaired like 200 of those already, pretty much everyone in my area these days owns a Switch). I don’t wanna risk shorting out a $70 controller doing it by myself
But Cities Skylines 1 is borderline unplayable outside of Steam because the non-steam players can’t use that one third-party traffic mod on the Steam Workshop that fixes the annoying only-one-lane traffic jams the devs did jack shit about until their recently-released sequel
Minecraft Dungeons and Mariokart 8 Deluxe. I was just playing the latter with my mom, and ordered the steering wheel joycon attachments for it which will arrive tomorrow. (Perhaps I could also connect a joycon to my computer and use the Switch wheel to play BeamNG.)
Today I also got a copy of No Mans Sky (basically Space Minecraft) for my switch because I feel it’s better experienced with a hybrid console than with a keyboard and mouse.
Technically all communities are dictatorships
Half its developers are probably on the sex offenders’ registry and can’t go within 300ft of schools. And now they’ll get to exploit even the kids whose parents won’t get them a computer yet
Just got an oled switch, I’ve only got one third-party game in my cartridge collection (of four game cards in total) and 2 digital third-party ones I can’t play from my account’s profile but that my mom bought for the family switch and re-downloaded on mine after I had her make a user profile on it. I’ve already bought Minecraft BE on a million different platforms and yet I almost always play java edition instead, and others that are available for Switch run just fine on my gaming PC.
The whole point of Nintendo devices is playing official, Nintendo-made games that can’t be found anywhere else.

Yeah I agree, the Switch family in general are mostly meant to play official games like Zelda, DK and Mario whose older incarnations were also designed for other small consoles that ran on battery power, and not-so-demanding third-party games that can be played without connection to power like Minecraft BE. They’re like a modern DS with a bigger screen that you can connect to a TV and play with detachable controllers, and never pretended to be anything more.
I plan on letting scientific curiosity get the better of me and licking one of my Switch games to test their apparently ghastly taste
Or how that compares to my mom’s frustration when she got stuck on a really hard Donkey Kong Country level on the family switch’s retro emulator app and died a lot. (She’s really scary when angry, especially if it’s from playing difficult games)
