    my odyssey download currently appears frozen at 1%

    When was the last time your Switch was fully powered down and not just in sleep? Rebooting it fully solves a lot of weird issues

    I mean, servers could also just be slammed but that seems uncharacteristically bad for them

    i rebooted it and restarted

    now it's at 4 percent

    I'd probably take a nap I doubt you'll be playing for like an hour anyway

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

    The Switch has garbage tier wifi. It's the only thing I've ever owned that can't get a good connection everywhere in the house. I had to buy an extender and put it right next to the dock, otherwise it just won't connect, or it downloads like it's on a 56k modem.

    I can't play Wolf yet, because I bought the X1 version, and I don't have one until the X1X arrives, so I guess it's Mario time

    Mine's been fine (albeit, small apartment), but I'm pretty sure Speed's issues were server-side not client-side.

    I haven't been watching the recent trailers so I don't know if this has already been shown but

    Those statue things involve you putting on sunglasses to see invisible stuff. I hope that's a deliberate shout-out.

    Oh wow, I wasn't expecting that BJ figure to be like old 60's GI Joe size.

    Also, I didn't know there was a Best Buy preorder bonus coin until just now. My dumb brain wants one to match my Zelda coin even though I know it's just gonna sit in the closet like my Zelda one.

    So I canceled my physical copy of Mario that I preordered from Amazon but kept the Wolfenstein. Wolfenstein just showed up and Mario was in the package with it. I have not been charged my Amazon for this Mario.

    Huh. Might see if one of my students at school with a switch would like a free copy of Mario.

    The Best Buy I went to was out of posters so they gave me the coin instead, I didn't even pre-order anything.

    My store got a huge surplus of both

    As far as the coin goes, it's been zeroing out with purchases of the game, pre-ordered or not, so we've just set the pre-order ones aside and been giving them away with the game

  • LasbrookLasbrook It takes a lot to make a stew When it comes to me and youRegistered User regular
    Like if I went after work I might be able to get one kinda surplus?

    Impressions from messing around like 20 minutes:
    Damn is the map being a travel brochure charming.
    Possessing things doesn't seem enjoyable.
    Kinda surprised Bowser doesn't speak English.

    I picked up a Switch/Odyssey bundle today from Target. I was worried that they would be hard to come by closer to Christmas so I made sure I had one now.

    But now my wife won’t let me play it until Christmas.
