I played a ton of Mario kart thinking my left controller was fecked because it kept steering left. Turns out I had motion controls on.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) discuss United's emphatic 4-1 win over Chelsea at Old Trafford and celebrate Manchester United being back in the Champions League. They also discuss United Women, takeover latest and transfer rumours before previewing the FA Cup Final vs. Manchester City.
What skill or knowledge am I lacking?
I get to the bit with the shell on top of the flower thing and I jump into the spikes. How do you clear that bit?
Found two fun levels today.
Inventive puzzle level: WNJ5GS6XG
Mario Kart: YF0H08MGF

Its a Z jump, so you spin off of the first buzzy beetle, but hold the z button so he does a big z jump to the second one then onto the falling platforms.
From the top one do another big z jump to another beetle, onto the wall, then into the pipe
Cool. Will give it a go.
550-D3S-2HF in the popular courses is fun. Not mine obviously
I highly recommend you all play this course

@Snowle Gunnar Solskjær do you need online to play all the user created mario levels? assumes yes
Yeah man you do
I'll get it when I have time then. THanks!
Ok I can't resist any longer, getting my Mario Maker on tomorrow.
Switch Lite revealed
Switch Lite revealed.
Should be a lot cheaper than that.
How much is it? I didn't see a price.
199 dollars
$100 cheaper than a switch then. Quite a discount, although no motion control, rumble or tv play.
It's a good deal, I know a few people who only play it portable anyway so I'd say they'd have preferred that to the normal Switch.
And if no motion control means not having to use it on those fecking BoTW shrines then I'm jealous.

That thing is gonna sell like crazy
£170 in the U.K. seems like a great deal for kids or people who play portable exclusively.

I have only ever docked it once to see how it plays but have exclusively used it undocked. If my switch broke today I'd 100% replace it with a switch lite.
I'm in. The lite would suit me perfectly.
Considering there's no dock, motion controls or even detachable ones, and it's all round much cheaper to make, knocking just £80 off is hardly something I'd call a great deal
It shouldn't affect a huge amount, but those with forced features it will.
I wouldn't speak too soon. Sure they prob will do it with Zelda, but devs have been told to patch their games or it will be that people still have to use extra controllers for games with certain features. Like with 1-2 switch.

Also, I hope the joysticks are much better designed, otherwise there could be issues down the road.
I suppose they couldn't discount it too much, or nobody would buy a full price switch, but had to discount it enough to tempt people that don't want to shell out that much on a full price one.Considering there's no dock, motion controls or even detachable ones, and it's all round much cheaper to make, knocking just £80 off is hardly something I'd call a great deal

Oh for sure.
It's just not something I'd call a great deal. And considering there'll be a buffed switch before we know it, I for one certainly couldn't justify that. Having said that, it's a great machine for those without one and being even more affordable makes it more of an easy decision.
Screen is smaller too. Not by much, but the original was perfect for being big enough to not need a TV.

Wonder how much the pro will cost. Expecting 399, but that’s a lot when you could buy a x or PS4 pro for that price.
Its tempting that's for sure.

Yeah, it's going to be steep going by this.
Would there be a downgrade in visuals/graphics ?
Nintendo said some games will have restrictions. I do expect a bit of a downgrade compared to the normal one.
This is more targeted for the Pokemon crowd. If they market it properly after what happened with Pokemon go it could sell very well.
Waiting to see what the pro will be like, found the standard one to be more than portable enough for my needs.
I don't think there is an official UK RRP yet, but I'd expect it to be £179.99. Being £100 cheaper is still a great deal in most people's eyes I expect, it's almost like a no-brainer purchase. But when you weigh it all up, I think maybe if they really wanted to, they could have shaved another £20 of that and still been profitable on the hardware (most don't profit on hardware much if at all, at least for the first few years).
I'd be wary of getting a pro until I knew how much it would be supported.
I don't think there will be any downgrades there, it's the same thing at the end of the day. If anything, they may look slightly better on a screen the best part of an inch smaller and of course, it looks like you might get an average of an hour longer playtime out of the battery on this. This definitely has a different target audience in mind though.
@duffer I remember you saying you interested. Does the lite interest you?
Bloody Amazon, my order has been delayed 
Order of what? Didn’t know they deliver kebabs now.Bloody Amazon, my order has been delayed
Won’t be long. Believe they bought a stake in Deliveroo after they scrapped their own delivery service.
Mario Maker.
Reckon I might try a kebab if Amazon did them.
So the Switch Lite is priced at £200 after looking at the pre order pages from Amazon and GAME. Americans get it £40 cheaper.
If it was priced at £180 would have been a decent price.
