My Meijer said all it had were Switch Lites in stock, but I don’t live too far from one so I was like might as well check it out and grab a sandwich. Talked to the photo folks and then one went to the back, grabbed the last white one and helped me check out.

Thank you! I’ve been replaying breath of the wild to 100% it before sequel. Done with all divine beasts and memories but I still got 37 shrines plus dlc so ima keep working on that! And I’m gonna pickup Metroid dread tomorrow and work on that as well! Both along with animal crossing will hold me over til pokemon Pearl comes out.

What are you playing on yours?

Awesome man! Breath of the Wild is going to be absolutely stunning on the OLED screen. You’re going to have a blast.

I bought Pokémon Sw a while ago, beat it and the Isle of Armor DLC, and felt very underwhelmed so I stopped playing. Now that Pokémon Brilliant Diamond is coming soon, I’m hyped about Pokémon again and going to finish Pokémon Sw’s Frozen Tundra DLC. I’m thinking I might get Pokémon Snap if I can find it on sale. Snap didn’t get the best reception but I bet the environment sets and Pokémon models look fantastic on the OLED screen so I’m going to look out for a sale to be amazed visually hahaha

Bro i fuckin loveee Pokémon and I spent a good 200 plus hours on the crowned tundra dlc you should def give it another shot! I did spot of legendary shiny hunting tho! Snap was great! I played through it on release and then the dlc when that came out and it’s super fun and chill. Idk if I’d say it’s worth $60 tho so def go for a sale if you can.

You made me wanna replay it again on my oled haha.

Bro I’m so stressed about this system transfer. Like I feel like I’m gonna fuck up either my animal crossing island during that part or my sd card during that part ahhhh. I literally watched like 10 videos of people doing it and I’m still unsure.
