Yeah sure, I'd love to see another Secret Santa event! I was hoping to do something about it later this month but bringing it up now in advance doesn't hurt.

Just buy it used or whatever.

Nah, not interested in entertaining petty remarks from people who don't know any better than carelessly derailing a thread from them. I'm just here to say it is not healthy or something to act proud of to care so much about brands, even as a fan. Nintendo's actions are reasonable and it's fair enough to agree with them, but I also believe it's important to remind ourselves that we're just consumers or hobbyists, not corporate shills or cheerleaders. I just find it pretentious to proclaim oneself as one of a select few who cares about brand integrity or whatever. Let's not take away any more than that and keep it as food for thought for the discussion.

You're not special for giving a shit about corporations like they're your parents.

I love the movie Superbad.

You're not going to tell us what happened?

Just refer to FE Cipher because they're all already there.

The artists never get to decide that. They're always given specific directions from Intelligent Systems as to how they should be drawn. In other words they do have default colors.

That stat spread is mildly interesting.

Robin and Morgan is also possible.

None because I'm my own screen protector.

Cursory searches tell me the Joy-Con issue is fairly common with old controllers from release due to some physical design flaw that doesn't exist in newer produced ones. I guess I was unlucky then.

It's important to remember that defective issues with electronic devices are usually anomalies, not norms. You could probably buy a Switch today with no notable issues, and if something ever did come up it likely wouldn't be significant enough to detract from your enjoyment of using it to the point of needing a repair. Personally I bought my Switch a year ago and it's been perfectly fine for me thankfully, save for the fact the left Joy-Con somehow developed an issue early on where the stick will randomly send input as if it's being pushed upwards without being touched but can be corrected if I just fiddle with it for a second. Mildly annoying but I just don't care enough to do anything more about it, and it's just an issue with the one controller. I'd recommend investing in a Switch regardless of model if its current library of games interests you. I know that's a rather straightforward suggestion, but it's what I did and I've been satisfied with my purchase.
