Updates tagged with switch on Federati Nu: Federated N-series GNU Social!lnxw48a1: I bought us all Sony #PlayStation #PS4 and #Nintendo #Switch consoles years back. (Myself, #sonOne, #sonTwo, #Daddy_A). Additionally, I bought #A1, #GD1, #GD2 each their own Nintendo #2DS handhelds (and 2nd son sonTwo and I each got a #3DS handheld). Part of the plan was that we'd all play together and thereby increase our time spent together and our communication, but that never happened, so I stopped buying consoles.

Also, it was too dark for me to play with my handheld game system (Nintendo #3DS), so that and the #Nintendo #Switch got zero gameplay in 11 months.

When he was four, they came to town around my birthday, and I was home. So he came over and sat on my lap and told me about all the games he played on their #Wii-U ... and about this new game he wanted that was only available for #Switch and #3DS. He didn't ask me to buy him anything, he just talked to me about what was important to him. Of course, he had a #2DS within a few weeks. A month or so later, I sent a Switch. (The 2DS is the same as a 3DS without the 3D simulation that is believed to damage growing children's real world depth perception.) So that's the reason I'm looking for a videogame.
