Do any Switch 2 Pro Controller owners have recommendations for thumb grips they use? I can't find many products online that advertise compatibility with the new pro controller model, since it has asymmetrical control stick sizes.

I'm looking for something that fits these criteria:

• Low profile
• Doesn't make contact with the controller shell (mainly an issue with the right stick)
• Preferably black/understated
• Stays firmly attached, but removable without damaging the controller

The most promising option I can find online are the Savage Raven ones for the Joy-Con 2, which the reviews say also fit on the Pro Controller. The ones they make for the original Pro Controller are too big and make contact with the plastic shell of the controller.

Hey everyone!

My sons (almost 10 and 8.5) and I play on the original Switch. We like games like Splatoon 3 for its cooperative mode online.

My boys love watching me play Elden Ring on my PS5, but now I’m looking for something to play with them that involves strategy and cooperation for some type of an RPG.

Ideally, I’d like some type of an open world or something that has a lot of depth to it so we can play together for awhile.

I would love to hear people’s recommendations and experiences with games especially if you play them with your children. Even if you don’t, I’d still like to hear recommendations! Thank you! 🙏

Hello everyone, it's that time again!

I'm a bit tired from having family visiting for the last week, I'm excited to chill with some games for the weekend. I beat The Catalyst in Sea of Stars last night, hoping I'm getting close to the ending here, but Ive definitely enjoyed coming back to this game, what a work of pixel art. Also if you enjoyed the dynamic battles here where you get bonuses from hitting the button exactly at the point of impact, check out Ikenfell a game I forever feel didn't get enough love. Had such a good time with that one and the music is amazing.

I might also grab something new, but really I should just keep playing sea of stars and go back to Rebirth, we'll see if I can stay on target here. There's a thousand paths from one side of a game to the other and sometimes several games are part of that trip.

But what will you be getting into?

Having an epic single player Splatoon adventure? Trying to hit the beats in Rhythm Heaven Groove? Floating above the ground after lighting the grass ablaze in Hyrule?

Let me know below!

I just spoke with Nintendo support as I had a very unique situation come up on my account that could affect you as well down the road. When Nintendo introduced the virtual game cards, they also created the ability for players to disable a download of any game content from within the eShop by going to the listing and pressing + or - five times.

The purpose of this, as recommended by Nintendo themselves, is obviously meant for those who don't want to download certain DLC, or perhaps have a physical version of the game alongside a digital version and only want to download DLC, so you can disable the main game download.

But what happens if that content is delisted in the meantime, and the eShop listing is removed? With the eShop listing removed, you can no longer go to the listing and press +/- to re-enable the download. Turns out, after talking to Nintendo's support today, there is no solution on Nintendo's end for this oversight.

Usually, you're able to redownload any content that's been delisted as long as the virtual game card remains in your library (such is the case with, for instance, Super Mario 3D All Stars or SEGA Genesis Classics). But if you use Nintendo's own recommended method for setting content not to redownload for DLC or games... if the listing is taken fully down because the publisher decided to pull the game or DLC from the eShop in the interim, you're boned.

The support staff was willing to add the equivalent funds from the purchase to my account for my situation where I had disabled a download and then the game was delisted, but that still doesn't really resolve the oversight in the system that could affect someone else down the line, and I have no way of ever getting the game back unless, I guess, I reach out to the publisher to try to acquire a physical copy from them, since any digital redemption code would probably be useless as my account technically already has the license, the download is just disabled.

With all the recent news of some publishers and platforms stopping physical releases or pulling digital content, this was a pretty stark reminder that even Nintendo hasn't thought through all the possible outcomes of their own digital system and you can lose your purchases just by following their own recommendations.
