The original was 720p I think and the newer ones are 1080p with upgraded processor. I haven't really kept up on switches lately but that's what it looks like to me from a quick run down of Amazon

There are Switches that are $300 that have gray control sticks. There are others that are $400 that have red/blue. Are there different versions of his thing (besides OLED)? I can’t forgive out why is $100 more than the other.

There is one version that is handheld-only.

I just realized no one actually has them in stock & it’s just resellers in on every site selling at a secondary market rate. The $300 one I saw is now gone.

I've been actively looking for one and I just bought a red/blue one for $300 at a best buy in OP. They have been sold out everywhere so must have just got in a shipment of them.

I've been playing Arena (which is the competitive version) for the past two days and am getting absolutely DESTROYED.

Last night. 3 matches regular Fortnite, 3 matches Arena.

Regular: 2 wins, 1 2nd place, 14 total elims
Arena: twice eliminated IMMEDIATELY upon landing, once 20th place or so, ZERO total elims

I'm in. My pc/controller setup hasn't been working for a few days. So, I need to wait until it fixes itself before I can play.

I will buy it.  I don't play Madden anymore, but I'll buy that, if for no other reason than to do my part to say "Hey world, this is a thing that needs to exist!"

I cut my teeth playing halo 2 online but haven't played in maybe 5 years. I just recently downloaded the Halo infinite multiplayer and have got sucked back in.

I've been playing some fortnite the last couple of years with my younger brother and we got my dad to start playing squads with us. He is godawful but we mainly just hide in bushes and chat until there are only a couple of people left then send my dad out as bait while my brother and I ambush the remaining players.

Over the last year I have easily spent more time talking with my dad/brother while playing fortnite than I have on the phone.

Who wants to hear an OG video game troll story?!?

So the year is around 2000 and my dad/brother and I loved playing the computer game Red Alert online with our dial up internet connection. We discovered that if you played the map "A path Beyond" and played as the soviets you could just build a crap ton of submarines right off the jump, hide them all over the water that surrounds the map then destroy your submarine pen so the other player has no idea.

They would destroy your base and hunt down all your units on the land but still couldn't win unless they found all of your submarines which could take hours all the while you are sending them messages about how they missed one single soldier hiding in the tree's.

Eventually they would quit and we would get the W.

Oh man

Loved red alert over dial up

We would have WWI rules with only infantry and pill boxes which was great
