"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I've read less than favorable reviews for 200GB and 256GB micro SD cards. Only the established brands (like SanDisk and Samsung) seem trustworthy, so I certainly wouldn't recommend to go with any cards of no-name brands regardless of their price, because chances are high that the storage corrupts within one year.

Sure, at a low price you aren't going to lose much money, but the headache of downloading all games again is much worse than what you get with, say, third party video game controllers that tend to break down relatively quickly.

The bolded is why I haven't pulled the trigger I Internet connections are already not the fastest where I live also.

Can't decide whether or not to watch the XBC2 Direct.

I want to, but I'm afraid it will spoil too much.

You already know you're getting the game right so you shouldn't need to see more, thus best to leave everything else for you to explore n experience me thinks.

Also could yal keep direct talk in the thread for it please.

So I can't stop playing Switch. Between FE: Warriors and SMO I have tons of hours of fun. Best way to wait until XBC2 releases. I'm specially addicted to FE: Warriors now, I find it an improvement over HW. I still haven't beaten the History mode in Hard mode, I'm at chapter 14 now, but I'm doing a bit of Story mode to level up my characters and find out new weapons and master seals. And I'm close to 500 moons in SMO, I still have so much to complete.

I did a quick poll with current college students and they all said they are going to download Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp for their iPhone or Android. They are super excited; much more so than they were for Super Mario Run. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Pro-tip for Fire Emblem Warriors: Prioritize playing as Marth and always combine him with another character for increased support points. Marth's support items are used for the skill that increases the EXP gain, so over time you will be able to lift your whole party more and more.

The leveling up process is much faster than I initially assumed. It's notably higher than in Hyrule Warriors. I am closing in on 100% completion of story and history mode, and all of my 23 characters have at least level 40 while the average sits at around 70.

Thanks! I was wondering how I'd make the leveling up process shorter. That's really useful. I'm also working to get Ryoma's A support skill, which make attacks 50% faster. That sounds really helpful for more advanced levels. But I guess I'd do Marth's support first.

Some other pro tips to advance in the game? I don't know yet how I'm supposed to improve characters' personal weapons, if that's possible (which I think it will be).

I wouldn't recommend going out of your way for Marth's skill, the game is already easy enough to progress through (I've had no trouble atleast), and building up supports takes a long time, so better to invest in other skills over an unnecessary skill that eventually becomes useless. Astra on the other hand is awesomeness! You'll want that on every character you regularly use. Trample, Solidarity, and Luna are also very good for everyone. 

After you beat a history map, missions will pop up that have personal weapon scrolls as the S rank reward. I would beat the story first before getting too deep in History mode though, but up to you of course!

I've been enjoying the game aswell, infact it's making me crave the mainseries again. Was gonna hold out until FE Switch, but if there's a deal for it this holiday I think I'll pick up SoV afterall!
