This is so random, but I'm using my Wii U to send this message! It's much easier than 3ds.

I've done that
also used it for facebook

I'm just realizing now how bad YouTube was on the wii u compared to the switch. MAJOR DIFFERENCE. The lag is awful, it sometimes keeps repeating the beginning, the load time takes longer. The switch is just so good, although I think it's so sad that they removed miiverse, I really wish they didn't.

Oh yeah.

If there are any sci-fi/anime fans here, I recommend Steins;Gate Elite for Switch. It's basically a playable anime—they took the old VN and animated the entire thing. It has a great time travel plot too, if you can deal with a few slower-paced introductory chapters.

Obligatory post about the original version looking  better and more colorful instead of flat and lifeless like elite.

Normally I feel the same way, but Steins;Gate takes a long time setting up the actual science behind theoretical time travel and does really interesting things with it. It's really pretty fantastic.

Agreed.  The original art style is really cool, but I realise that it wouldn't have worked in an anime so they couldn't really keep it.  However, I don't really see why the visual novel needed redoing in the same style as the anime when the original looks nicer.

I mean I guess so. You can't do much to change my opinion though. What a VN needs is colorful and high detailed art, not motion. At least, in my opinion.

hmmm

It's honestly pretty great. If you don't have the time for a VN, the anime works just fine. Steins;Gate Elite is essentially the anime with the game's script, but the playback pauses whenever there's descriptions or internal thoughts. The original version is in standard VN format, but is also not on as many consoles nor on switch in particular.

Sorry, I'm a little confused... What does "VN" stand for?

Visual Novel.

Ah, I should have guessed that.

They also produced a LOT of new animation for the endings that were cut. Also like, the clips are all edited to match up with the text and voice. It's really cool honestly, like playing an anime.
