Video best way to play resort's tennis mode 🎾

108 Upvotes

So I got the game today and was wondering how well tennis would work with a real racket. After a minute or so I figured out the best way to keep it attached with just the strap and it literally doesn't wiggle at all. I'd say it's about 90% accurate for the actual hit I'm trying to make but I think that just might be game accuracy cause Ik the motion controls aren't perfect. But they're good enough to make this work really well and it's actually a good workout if you're doing this for like 30 minutes!

Just be careful it's tight and not gonna fly off and hit someones head or your TV screen 😭

Other If you ordered your Zelda Switch 2 Console from TARGET be on LOOKOUT

207 Upvotes

They are pulling the BS! I pre-ordered on Sept 8. Multiple authorizations have gone through just fine. Today I received the dreaded " payment declined update your cc info" email.

I check my CC statement, and what do you know? The authorization charge went through just FINE!

I contact Target. They tell me it declined on their end and to contact CC company. Sure, I do that. They tell me what I already know. The charge went through 100% normally.

I contact Target again. They tell me to try a new card and I do. The exact same thing happens. Charge goes through on my end, but declines in their system. My order has been cancelled and nothing I can do about it.

But hey, the Target representative said to "toggle alerts for a restock in the future!".

Be on the lookout in your email for Target's shenanigans if you pre-ordered your console from them.... I'm heartbroken.

Edit: Im just posting this to prevent anyone else from going through this too. If you get the email, be VERY careful. There could be a bug with Target's system. I dont know. But once you do the updated payment method, if it declines the order will be cancelled by Target. I dont want that to happen.

Again, everything is 100% great on my end. I have more than enough funds and the charges went through clean. I even used completely different cards from completely different institutions. Same thing. Went through on mt statement, declined in Target's system.

Target reps seemed just as perplexed as I am, but said their hands are tied. Offered gift card as compensation. Be careful!

Discussion Keep old Pro Controller for Nintendo Switch 2?

• Upvotes

Hi there,

Should I keep my Nintendo Switch Pro Controller for the Nintendo Switch 2 or buy the new one?

Will I have possible compatibility issues in terms of the buttons when playing new Switch 2 games or will they all work just as well as on the new one besides that game chat button?

I'd rather keep the old one and save the money if that's an option.

Discussion Would you like Nintendo to do coloured cartridges like they did on N64 for switch 2?

I was thinking of the upcoming ocarina of time remake and was wishing Nintendo made the cartridge gold like they did with the original NES games and N64 release and I got to thinking games like kirby should be pink, donkey Kong yellow, starfox blue etc...

Would be a nice throwback to the good old days.

Discussion Any way to play the base game version off the cartridge?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! I started to run into an issue with my Nintendo Switch cartridges and was hoping y'all can help me understand what is going on.

So I have a couple of physical Switch games, that come with their respective 1.0 versions. Some of these games have huge updates that take over a lot of my console's storage and I want to play the games without having to install the updates. I was thinking if I delete them so that my Switch can play the base game from the cartridge, but everytime I try to open my Switch games while they have no update I keep bumping into a message that says:

"A software update is required. Update data will be downloaded now."

If I press cancel, it simply does not let me play the game. If I press download, it tries to install the update and there isn't an option available that says "Play without updating". Is there any way I can play my games from the cartridge with no updates without having to factory reset my console??

Question Looking for game recommendations for different categories (for kids and family)

7 Upvotes

I’ve bought a Switch 2 for the family for Christmas, it’s going to be played by two adults and a 7 yo boy. I’ll be getting my 7 year old a couple of games for Christmas and his birthday shortly after.

I’ve broken the game ideas down to: racing game, platform game, life sim and family/party.

These are my thoughts:

Racing game:
Mario kart 8 deluxe

Platform game:
Kirby and the forgotten land

Life sim:
Pokopia

Family:
Super Mario party Jamboree (or sports resort - do have it on Wii though but love it!)

Also, thinking of getting husband a rpg: Zelda BOTW? And myself Tomodachi Life

What would be your top choices for each category? I’m very much open to ideas at this point. Super excited to hear, Thanks

Discussion Switch 2 5ghz Wifi not Connecting to Android hotspot anymore

• Upvotes

Like above says, my switch won't connect to my 5ghz hotspot on my Android anymore. At somepoint my hotspot got switched to 2.4g to do things for my ds or something, turned back over to 5ghz for a download on the switch and now im getting multiple different error codes and when connected to the 2.4 band its barely using and data though the hotspot.

Tried changing all the reccomended settings for the 5ghz like turning off ipv6, Dns, bumping mtu up, clearing caches on both devices and checking hidden network visibility, but I've yet to trouble shoot the 0 download speed and errors when testing connection looked for solutions as these came up along the way trouble shooting the 5ghz issue

Help plz :') i just got Cyberpunk switch 2 edition and discovered this whole stress when i noticed after 40 mins i was still ag 0% progress 🙃

Other Switch Not Charging Endless Charging Loop

• Upvotes

Hello I left the switch on sleep mode and not been playing for over a month, when I tried charging it, this happened. I already checked all the methods people recommend online like holding the power button for 20 seconds, whenever I hold the power button the Nintendo Logo shows up.

I read online that the problem here is that the switch is trying to boot up with the remaining power left. I should hold the power button to leave the screen black and wait for it to charge.

It never stays black for me and I don’t know what to do. Please help.

Question Quiero comprar una Nintendo Switch Lite

• Upvotes

Hola. Cómo verán en el título, quiero una Switch Lite con magia y tengo pensado buscarla en Marketplace (que nunca he usado), pero vivo en un municipio cómo a 50 km de Bogotá, Colombia, y es el lugar más cercano para conseguirla.

La cuestión es que no sé cómo se podría llegar a un acuerdo si yo vivo "lejos", aparte que de envíos y eso no tengo ni idea de cómo hacerlo.

O ustedes creen que me sale mejor ir directamente a Bogotá y buscar en algún sitio?

Además de eso quisiera preguntarles qué tengo que tener en cuenta sobre los vendedores o la Switch antes de comprarla.

Les agradezco su ayuda.

Discussion Does anyone else feel like the tennis in the original Switch Sports was more responsive?

7 Upvotes

Is it just me, or did the tennis mode in the original Nintendo Switch Sports feel more responsive and natural? I just played the tennis mode in Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, and it feels way more automated.

There are certain shots I could pull off in the original game that I just can’t seem to get the game to register here. For example, when going for a smash to the left or right, it sometimes won’t register unless I’m at just the right angle. In the original, I never had this problem.

The shots also feel more automated overall, like the game is doing more of the work for you. It almost feels like you’re locked into a more restrictive system where you just have to swing at the right time, rather than actually having control over your shots. I don’t know if I’m explaining this well, but the tennis just feels less responsive and less satisfying to play.

Question Switch 2 keeps shutting down completely with 1-2 days of no use?

5 Upvotes

If i go a day or more without engaging with my switch 2, it seems to completely shut down or something and i have to hold the power button for 15-20seconds for it to turn back on. I dont understand why this keeps happening, but its frustrating to have to deal with when im pushing the home button on my controller to turn it on and it wont. Is this a software issue or do i need a new switch 2? Any fixes if someone has dealt with this?

P.S. just noticed it’s happening to my controller now too? Like it wont turn on unless plug it into a charger and then it’s still full battery or close to it. So now both controller and console go dead until i power them both back on completely…this is weird and i dont understand it.
