    Sadly I had to give some money to Gamestop for a Pro Controller. I really wanted a charging grip, but no one has them and when they come up, people snatch them up so fast you don't even get the email notification you signed up for that they're available. I wish people would wait instead of giving money to resellers on Ebay. If they all got burnt, no one would do this stupid garbage. I've been trying to help a friend get a preorder on a Switch, but every time someone posts on reddit that someone it taking preorders they are gone within 8 minutes of the post. Its amazing how people can dedicate their time and sit there all day hitting refresh on every retailer site and reddit.

      Its Nintendo's fault for consistently making a small supply of every product. Nintendo probably has the largest share of video game products resold on ebay. Even now on ebay the majority of the resold Switchs are being sold for $450+. I've read plenty of articles and forum topics on places like cheap ass gamer and others where people openly talk about how they would buy the maximum of a game when it goes on sale for resale. Same with consoles, unless there is a limit on the site, there are people that will drop $2k on as many consoles they can order to sell on ebay because they could easily make a 75% profit on their investment.

      I guarantee the website everyone on reddit is looking at is this:

      Don't look at reddit, watch this site instead. Bots constantly refresh the seller's sites to see when something is available again. Once it is, it'll be on this first, then 5 mins later will show up on reddit after someone get their pre-order secured. This is the site I looked at religiously when I was pre-ordering my PS4 and it worked great for me.

      Pfft, Pro Controllers. Who uses those? :P

      Meh, this is why you don't pre-order consoles. It's just not worth the hassle trying to find a place to get a pre-order at and who needs a console at launch honestly (especially with the lack of launch titles the Switch even has)? This is why I wait a few months until stores get more stock in before I buy my consoles (worked wonders for when I bought my PS4 (though I did have to go to 4 different stores before I finally found one that had them in stock (ironically it was Wal-Mart in which I could of just bought one at the one I worked at))). Ironically I love how Nintendo said there wouldn't be a stock shortage for this launch and we already have one a month before its release. GG Nintendo, way to drop the ball again.

      I must play Zelda tho XD. No one has the charging grip, and gamestop was the only one with the pro controller in stock. I'm not waiting 3 hours for the joy cons to charge the day I get my Switch. I'm gonna boot it up and play immediately. As far as I know the only way the Joycons charge is via the charging grip or connecting it to the switch in mobile mode, but docked. I'm not playing on a small screen either while I wait for Joy Cons to charge. Sure they'll have some juice in them upon arrival, but probably a few hours at best.

    True, but at the same time, they can't afford to have droughts like MS and Sony. They're gonna have to have a better flow of titles to keep people coming back and not trading in the console after they play Zelda and Mario. It came out yesterday that Wii U was their worst selling console ever. They have a lot of rebuilding to do outside of the hardcore fanboys.

    https://www.vg247.com/2017/02/03/the-switch-launch-lineup-is-deliberately-weak-for-reasons-actually-says-a-nintendo-were-paraphrasing-freely/ This is interesting, but dangeous. They'll need to spread these releases our more games will fall through the cracks when too much is coming out and players have to pick and choose. As much as I complain about large swathes of games coming out at once, I know to save my money around that time of the year. I don't buy games every month, and more like twice a year. If they do 4 month increments, it might work good. You have to let players consume the content.

    Well that was a pretty damn good season finale. Ivar kills Sigurd in a blind rage. I think his solidifies Ivar as an unstable madman, but a genius at the same time after his battle tactics work to dismantle the Saxon army. Ivar is turning out to be one of the biggest characters in on the show, and he replaces Rangar's late life personality which had an unpredictable nature. Its clear a major chunk of next season will focus around him and his conquest of England. The other part of next season will focus around King Harald and Lagertha. Harald brother no doubt wants to accompany Bjorn to keep him distracted while Harald focuses on Kattegat. Looking at the previews, it seems somehow Torvi survived being a pin cushion. The death of Ragnar has causes instability. Harald being the King of Norway, I assume Rangar was the king of Sweden. Its nevey really stated, but thats where he was born. Kattegat is actually a sea, that's more of a bay between Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. I didn't think the show could go on after all the deaths, but maybe it can for at least another two seasons. The warrior bishop is intriguing enough. I wonder what is going to become of Floki in all of this.

    Will Divinity's Reach become the new post Scarlet Lions Arch? With Queen Jennah be slain? Will Logan Thackery ever get well? Will he join Braham in newly forged emo alliance? Or will Swordsmaster Faren return from Verdant Brink to save us all?

    Nothing like knocking out all 9 Overwatch weekly wins in an hour. MMR was on my side for once.

    I finally watched this, and while I thought it was good, and the end fight was epic Rocky style.... the training sequences seemed pretty shitty and didn't make it believable that he was ready to go. The story was good, the characters were good, but they could have done a rap remix of Hearts on Fire or something if the original was too 80s. I mean they tried to do the old grungy gym thing, but it felt like he did most his training at the hospital. I guess the mid movie fight was supposed to do the job, and the bet fight near the beginning was suppose to be some "Clubber Lang" type moment. But none of it was convincing to me. Now that I say that, It would have been cool to have Mr. T get in on some training action.

    I finally watched this, and it was pretty good. I'd say Superman/Batman Apocalypse is still my favorite DC animated film though.

    I've bought loot boxes every festival, and got at least 2 of the legendary skins each time. BF1 loot box system is so garbage by comparison. X_x EDIT: I've gotten all the legendary skins except D.Va. I don't really care to get it because her outfit looks funky (FASHION!). I was complaining to friends the other day how she has gotten any good skins since Summer Games. But I'm not impressed with a wooden mech. All the other skins are fantastic. I got Reinhardt, Winston, and Roadhog from boxes and I bought the Zenyatta one with my coins. I'd like to get that tracer one as well, but I'm not going to spend on it even though it's not 3000c.

    I'm more hyped than ever for Breath of the Wild after Amazon UK leaked the details that there will be 900 puzzles, 120 mini-dungeons, and 76 side quests. Zelda is one of the few games that I get into hardcore completionist mode. I put in for the week off when it arrives at my door step. XD

      Those 4 hearts that are tied behind multiplayer will be a pain in the ass to get.
