    I thought about bringing the #PSP or the #PSVita with me, but instead I brought the Nintendo #Switch and the #3DS. Not that I’ve had any time to play, but in over a month, I haven’t even turned either one on.

    I think it is official: I may say I like these Nintendo systems, but the way I avoid playing them says otherwise. With the Sony handhelds, I still don’t play a lot, but when I do, I enjoy it … and I don’t avoid them out of dread.

    I was finally able to mess around in #Fortnite on my #Switch. I'm a long way from being a valued ally that can keep up with my grandkids (right now, both #A1 and his younger brother #A2 play it). But the little bit I saw (story mode) was okay.

    While the work laptop downloads six updates, I decided to take a look at Fortnite on the #Nintendo #Switch. I haven’t opened it since February, so there’s an update that takes 90 minutes to download.

    (It is probably going to #GS3 when he’s about 8 years old if it still works. He’ll have to share it with his brother #GS4.)

    I brought the #Nintendo #3DS and #Switch with me on this trip. I think I turned each one on for about two or three minutes, then turned them both off before even starting to play any games.

    I expect that the 3DS will be given to GS3 sometime after his 8th birthday, unless someone buys a 2DS for him first.

    Playing a little MegaMan on the #3DS. I and Daddy_A have MegaMan 11 for the #Switch (even though I don’t think I’ve played it yet), and I think I bought it for all of us on the #PS4, too.

    They're talking about game consoles vs computer games.

    I'm in favor of game consoles, simply because I can't play a game without feeling guilt ("I should be working") on a regular computer. Not that I play games very much these days.

    I use my Nintendo #Switch so rarely, that I think it is time to send it to #sonTwo to save it for #GS3. I just don't enjoy playing anything on it for more than about ten minutes.

    Someone talking about Stardew Valley. I bought the game for #PS4, but I have still never played it. I also bought it for #Little_Boy_A to play on the #Switch.

    Nintendo #Switch still outselling everything else; #PS5 has record launch sales; #Xbox Series X & Series S sales below XBOne launch.

    Hoarders are using #bots to buy up supplies, hoping to scalp the consoles for higher prices.

    1. PlayStation 5 sales in November are higher than any US console launch
      from Elizabeth Henges
      Despite stock shortages, Sony's PlayStation 5 sales for its launch month are higher than any US console month, accord to NPD Group.

    Feature update to Win10 version 20H2.

    There’s really nothing in there worth the hassle of an “upgrade”.

    And what’s with a previous update installing all this #XBox toolbar garbage? I don’t have one and even if I did, I wouldn’t want to link it with my laptop.

    If I was a US Attorney, I’d be sending a strongly-worded letter to Microsoft with words like “antitrust” and “monopoly”, and asking them what outreach they’ve done to Sony and Nintendo about adding similar tools to work with _their_ gaming consoles.

    Though, to be honest, I wouldn’t connect my #PS4 or my #Switch to the laptop either.

    @mangeurdenuage Family gaming night! That's what I was trying to do when I bought my sons #PS4 and #Switch consoles, but so far, we've never had everyone together in one session.

    Oh, that looks pretty neat. I have a real #Switch, so I'd probably only use #Yuzu to play homebrew games, if that's even a thing for the #Nintendo Switch. (I've heard that N is known for lawsuits.)

    I still occasionally play the #PS4, the #Switch, or the #3DS (in decreasing order). But with the last two, 10-20 minutes and I don't even want to look at the machine for a week or two. At least I always have a low-key desire to play the PS4.

    I currently have no plans to purchase the next generation of consoles unless utilization is much higher.

    It could just be that I never owned or pkayed any #Nintendo devices, but I find that I rarely play more than 10 minutes at a time on #Switch, #Wii-U, or #3DS, while I can play for up to an hour on #PSP and #PSVita.

    I even brought the 3DS on my trip.

    Got a $20 headset that says it works with both #PS4 and #Switch. I guess I'm really going to play this game with 2 sons and 1 grandson.

    Speaking of entitled. I would buy a lot more games for #PS4 and #Switch if they didn't think $60 should be the standard price. I don't play them often enough to pay that much, but I would pay $20-$30 for a lot of the games I see.

    Well, I do have a TV, but all it does is connects to my #PS4 / #PS3 / #Switch. No cable or satellite service, no antenna for over-the-air.

    A lot of people are talking about the upcoming #PS5. I'm not planning to buy it, at least not any time soon.

    I've bought Sony #PS4 consoles for multiple people (including but not limited to my sons), partly so we'd be able to play together. It hasn't happened very often, and I'm not looking to spend hundreds of dollars per console again.

    I also bought a number of Nintendo #Switch consoles.

    Personally, I'll continue to mostly play legacy games (such as Atari's arcade classics and Megaman) on my existing hardware until a grandchild shows me a few games we can play together (which implies that the parents will have already bought the console).
