(Unless the game is using space on the SD card as virtual ram?)Eearslya on discord said - So I'm surprised a) that there's enough RAM there with room to spare for the game itself, and b) that constantly recording doesn't seem to impact performanceSystem TransferBoth a source console and a target console are required to transfer user information and save data.Pre-purchaseAlso updates the firmware on the joy-cons, no clue what that does.Right joycon takes l

Anyway I was at the mall, walked in the GameStop and noticed a Switch setup to be played, so I just tried it. It was already in a game .. so I started playing and it was Odyssey and I’m like, wow this is different. This is really great. I’m not sure what the secret sauce they did to up their game (no pun intended) .. that’s going to be an awesome game.

(Which is crazy!)Quick question, Have you played and enjoyed a game on Switch which no one else has heard of, a game which did not release to fanfare, or set the charts ablaze ?My choice would be Shephy, A single player card game involving sheep!The amount of games coming out is great, but some good/great games must get buried and quickly forgotten.Thanks.Honestly it is so tough to keep up.  I've had just a passing experience with the game, Quest of Dungeons is a fantastic roguelike game that I highly recommend.  If you're looking for multiplayer action.  Astrobears is a shallow but really fun party game for $5.  Thanks for listening.Tweet @runjumpstomp  Voicemail 260-RUN-JUMP  260-786-5867 Discord runjumpstomp.com/discord NewsNintendo World Championships (No big announcement)Old and new games (Fantastic variety)Breath of the Wild (shield surfing)Smash Wii UMetroid:  Samus ReturnsBalloon Fight!

I already reviewed your podcast on apple. I happen to have one little question maybe you could spend 1/2 a second on. here it is I am a physical game buyer mostly to because I do not want to blow a lot of money on an expensive sd card. However I do have a 128 gb card and am thinking of buying games digital or start to and I notice the switch hasa quick archive option so does that mean if an sd card is full or close to full you can use that option to free space on the card. Its my understanding that only the game downloads to the card and the saved file of the game data saves to the switch and do you think a 128 sd card is good for buying all digital I mean worst case buy another that size and switch them out?Look forward to your feed back,                                                       JohnTweet @runjumpstomp  Voicemail 260-RUN-JUMP  260-786-5867 Discord runjumpstomp.com/discord NewsNever Stop Sneaking From the creators of Dust:  Elysium TrailMario Odyssey does Amiibo right!Why free to play games aren’t on the Switch yetGameplaySteamworld Dig 2Lightning RoundInvisible players on FIFANintendo Internship Japan OnlyNew Splatfest announced for Next weekend.NA Werewolves vs VampiresEU Toilet Paper front vs backJP Agility vs Tenacity (Duallies vs Brella)Coming soon!Oct 1088 Heroes - 98 Heroes EditionTiny Barbarian DXTouhou Kobuto V:  Burst BattleThat is all we have

I now have a better experience,with more games, including non-Nintendo consoles, and wirelesscontrollers. I can only devote so much time of the day stalking onlinesites (even using services like NowInStock which often didn't respondfast enough for the handful of minutes things become available), so ifNintendo isn't going to take these devices seriously enough to want mymoney, then lots of people like me are going to have moral shifts inorder to obtain the same (or better) experience.Re: Metroid poll... I actually jumped from the original NES right to theWii (having switched to PC gaming in the interim) so I'd happily playwhatever Metroid games for Switch get produced. Metroid is my secondfavorite franchise, after Zelda. Despite having a emulation box, theappeal of playing portably and in HD would be sufficient for me to buyremakes of games I already can emulate the originals of.re: FIFA18 sales... not all Nintendo Switch owners are sports fans. Notall sports fans are FIFA/soccer fans. And not all Switch-owning soccerfans are fans of bloated, crippled games where the savefiles are almostthe size of the entirety of Super Mario Odyssey, and you can't playonline with your friends. Incompetence and laziness should not berewarded, and if EA is going to use this as a metric for whether theybring additional games to the Switch, well that's their loss andmeanwhile we've got plenty of other games to play. There are only somany hours in the day anyway.Tweet @runjumpstomp  Voicemail 260-RUN-JUMP  260-786-5867 Discord runjumpstomp.com/discord NewsSonic Home Menu fixed (Thanks @Wyvrn on Discord)Nintendo ups production to 2 million units per month.EA

I sent you a friend request. I’m Nintendork with the weird looking mii, and blue hair. Second thing I’m getting Super Mario Odyssey when it comes out, but one thing I don’t like is how much Nintendo is spoiling it.  I’ve been trying to avoid as much Mario Odyssey coverage as I can.  Because I want to be surprised about how cool the game is.

They seem to have a lot of problems running on the Switch.Do you think we will have the same problem as we did with the Wii U where 3rd party developers will stop trying to make these games on the Switch?Seems like they are having the same problems bringing games to the Switch that they had for the Wii U.  The big difference is the success of the Switch versus the failure of the Wii U. Developers have a big incentive now to get their games on the Switch where they didn’t have that on the Wii U.  It just seems like too big of a task and I imagine it’s a lot of work for these developers to try and put these games on the Switch.Should we accept the Switch as a system mainly for Nintendo made games and smaller indie type games?Love the show.Thanks,TrevorTweet @runjumpstomp  Voicemail 260-RUN-JUMP  260-786-5867 Discord runjumpstomp.com/discordPer your comment on the podcast, I still play ARMS and love that game.  No Pokken for me either. - Crzylgs15agreed @crzylgs15.

I feel that NVC gives me the multi voiced, multi opinionated mainstream view and Switchcraft gives me a more considered, nuanced and intimate experience.I love the shorter but more frequent format, I think about 30mins is about the sweet spot.Anyway keep up the good work.JulianFrom sunny Essex, Uk. Tweet @runjumpstomp  Voicemail 260-RUN-JUMP  260-786-5867Justin from Pennsylvania Discord runjumpstomp.com/discord Stop by the live stream sometime!  twitch.tv/runjumpstompI’ll be streaming the SNES classic on Friday after I pick it up.NewsStardew Valley news - Thanks to Eearslya in Discord.If it releases this year it will probably be only the single player with multiplayer coming to PC first.  Switch gets it first on console next year.Jackbox 4 coming to Swtich October 19th.  Just in time for Thanksgiving!New ARMS stage coming tomorrow!Nintendo World Championships Metroid Samus Returns will be one of the games played.Participants were sent a new 2DS with the game, so they could practice.October 7th 5PMFree admissionI’ll be hosting it on my stream.  GameplayDeath Squared (review copy) 80 levelsMove boxes around changes things in the level Transparent barriers LazersSpikes to kill you.Son didn’t care for it.  He got bored
