So I got a switch for my son (Bought a while earlier but received today, so it's the non-OLED version)
Pliss to help with any recommended first steps, e.g. which region to create account from, should i buy the online membership/from where, do ppl buy games online or physically, anything else?

There are people here like me, @Vamos and maybe others (Shantz) who have both the consoles and swear Quick Resume is truly next gen having experienced it first hand. It is not the same as a process suspend and resume on PC.
And then there are armchair critics whose only source of info is twitter/youtube claiming otherwise and bullshitting non stop.
Such bakwaas.
Yup. I mean ive done full shutdown and resume mid battle. No pc has ever allowed to do that. It's a must for ppl like me who get so sporadic time to play games

I don't know why few folks are downplaying quick resume so much. It is THE most important feature in xbox for me today. So much so that I bought Tales of arise on sx instead of ps5 primarily because of quick resume and will do so for all multiplats unless there's some mind boggling difference in the PS5 version.
Few things:
- Why are you talking about PC? If someone wants to eat Pizza do you say well my malpua was already made of maida, so go eat malpua instead?
- In any case, it is very different from what PC did. In the time my PC even goes to windows login screen, I am already back in the game on xbox.
- Many games dont even have a quick save/restore functionality (even on PC) e.g. Hades. What will you do there?
- I can literally shutdown my xbox and continue off from one of the 3-4 different games I was playing earlier wherever I left off.
In the end, if it doesn't make sense for you, then don't use it/buy it/play it whatever. I don't know why you guys keep making random sh*t up.

Not featuring in the top 20 list inspite of being good. Extremely sad and shocking!
Have you considered if a game is failing to be commercially successful twice, it's because it's not really that good and maybe appeals only to a few people? I found psychonauts 1 as well as 2 pretty boring.

How's the L5P ? I read some models had screen issues. How's the battery ?
Not looking for gaming (beyond some indies), but more for photo editing, minor work and consumption standpoint. Initially finalized the L5P, but now looking at Zenbook OLED models - probably will get better battery life.
Recommendations ?
I got it for my son so it will be used mainly as plugged in but i did some checks by adding him to use during the class unplugged and it still had around 50%left after 3-3.5 hours of online class. So looks to be decent enough. Not that i had the balanced mode turned on in their vantage software. You can go up and down this number by changing the mode. You’ll surely not get as much as you would get on a model without the dedicated gpu. Also it’s very heavy if that’sa consideration. One good thing vs most others (including asus zen) is that Lenovo warranty is better. Also for this model, Lenovo gives 3 year premium warranty.
No issues on my model wrt screen etc. There’s a minor problem that the laptop seems to detect the rgb keyboard as normal white one and thus the built in key combos to turn on/off/change pattern don’t work. Apparently lots of ppl are facing this issue but i was able to fix it by using a third party software someone wrote for Lenovo laptops keyboards.-

Try using a vpn. Just as some guys are using xcloud.
You don't need a vpn. Just buy the psn now card (or regular gift card) from amazon.com and redeem it on a US PSN account. Make sure that it's not a 1 month card. You've to take a min 1 year one, otherwise it will ask for cc while redeeming.

PSA: Amazon blocked my bot, so it's been disabled. So please don't depend on it for stock notifications at least for the near future since I don't have much time to figure out the issue as of now.

I have a good way out for this @Bird Bird Bird @adity
- I've removed it for now from our IVG secret channel
- Added it to the public channel in case anyone still wants, they can join that
- When @Bird Bird Bird is ready to buy one, I will remove it from public and set one up specifically to send notifications directly to him
I hope this works out for all.

All, I will remove xbox notifications from the telegram channel today as most people here seem to have gotten it already. If someone still needs it, reply to this post by 5PM today or forever hold your peace.

@Shantz Can you please remove XSX from the telegram tracker. I think everyone has it for now and most of us are more interested in PS5 now.
Sure, I will ask once in the xbox thread and remove if no one replies today.

Can you share which charger you use? There are multiple of different charging speeds but not sure if that translates in practice.
I use MH C9000

BTW, it goes to show how low is the demand for xbox in India. It's been stock for more than 30 minutes now. Not much uptick on twitter either.

Official Nintendo Switch Thread

Thanks a lot @roun90This is extremely helpful. One last question. For the NSO membership, I see there's a family plan and individual plan. Do you know if I have a single switch with multiple profiles (1 for me and 1 for son), will both of us be able to play the NES/SNES games from NSO on our individual profiles with an individual membership or do I need to buy the family membership?
