Is there a way to charge the device wihtout the docking station?
It charges through USB-C, I think. Not sure if you can just plug one into your computer and charge from there or if you'd need a nintendo specific adapter.

Oh solid, I'll look into getting one. Although in airplane mode I was able to play for 90 min this morning (got to my 3rd world, have ~30 moons or so) and only used 25% of my battery. Should be good on Wednesdays for my long commute.
Just picked up Stardew Valley last night. Haven't started it yet as I'm still into SMO but I picked it up as a backup game to play. Justin, it better be as good as you say it is. When I'm done with SMO, think I'll pick up Sonic Mania.
I asked for eShop cards for Christmas. Hopefully I can fund most of the purchase of Zelda with those. I'm also looking forward to Wolfenstein coming out next year.
Playing SMO, and stuck on this boss dragon fight. It's fucking infruiating. The game doesnt seem to get harder the further I go on, just more tedious.

Which Kingdom are you in?

I dont recall the name of the Kingdom, but it's this boss fight. The thrid hit is the problem. Trying to get all the posts up before the time is up is difficult.
Oh yeah, that was a doozy. It took me a while, but you don't have to get all of the posts at once if I am remembering right. Get as many as you can, hop off, survive the next barrage, and then hop on to remove the rest.
Got to the top of Bozer's castle and getting bored with it. So taking a break and playing some Stardew Valley as a break. I'm 4 days in and realized I have no clue what I'm doing.
So far I'm just clearing off my land, selling the shit and planting what I got. Trying to get 300 wood to fix that bridge and save up for extra inventory space.
The thing I like about Stardew Valley is that you can operate your farm anyway you want, there is no wrong way to play the game. I'm currently raising pigs (they dig up truffles which I convert to truffle oil and sell for over $1000 a pop) and brewing booze.

That is pretty cool. I'm still early in the game, ~11 days. Looking forward to getting enough money to start to unlock some of the cool shit.
I haven't played in a while, I might have to play a day or two tonight.
If you're looking to unlock stuff, I'd focus on the pantry and boiler room of the rec center first.
Haven't even gone to the Rec Center yet. Will today on my commutte home.
Got some solid playing time in on some flights recently. Only played Stardew Valley( I'm hooked), pausing on Mario for the meantime.
In the year 1 of summer, spending a shit ton of time in the caves down to level 70 or so. Growing some Hops and others like Corn and peppers that continue to grow after harvest. Punting on relationships with the towns people, trying to get coin and improve my tools and eventually start with some livestock.
Only playing this game in 30 min clips will really give it some lifespan. If I were 16-18 I could see crushing this game in ~2 weeks or so.
Nice, glad you're liking it. It took a while, but I ended up courting Leah and now we're married with a kid. I got $20 in eShop giftcards for Christmas so I'm probably going to get Zelda soon.
Zelda will be my next purchase as well, whenever I get sick of Stardew Valley.
Update on Stardew, now have chickens and cows plus 2 silos stocked ready to go 1 day away from winter. Upgraded Axe and Pickaxe to steel, have about 7k in gold, up floor 85 in the mine. In the winter plan is to reach bottom of mine and get as much gold as possible and focus on the comunity center bundles. Really want to start making beer and wine for next yr.
I'm telling you, get some pigs as soon as you can afford it.
Oh for sure, that's on the list. Hope to have them by the end of the winter. Reading/watching through some speed runs (racing to $1M) I'm picking up some tips and seeing how I was off to a slow start when I first started playing.
This was announced yesterday, I think. It looks pretty cool, but geared towards kids.
Haven't been playing much as nothing is really out that appeals to me (outside of Zelda).
Played Stardew Valley, Resident Evil Revelations 2, Mario Odyssey.I have Sonic Mania but it doesn't hold my attention. I got Golf Story from a rec, but I can't get into it.
Anyone got any other game recs? Or are you excited about something coming out?
Super Smash Bros was announced recently, which I'm looking forward to. Also considering Wolfenstein II and Metroid Prime when they are released later this year. I hadn't played for a month or so but ended up starting a new story on Stardew Valley this weekend.

I'll be all over prime if it's like the sidescroller. If it's the the gamecube version, I'll pass.
I've thought about starting a new Farm, but I really want to play with Mods on the computer.
Update: I've been playing Skyrim a ton on the switch and it's great. I was a bit concerned about the port as the graphics were reduced. However the loading time has improved dramatically, ton of fun to play. I'm roughly 25 hours into it and barely scratched the surface.
Waiting for Dark Souls to come out, but looks like that was pushed back til the end of the summer.
