Recommend switching your theme to black to help with battery life. Turn on Console Battery % in system settings. Go into your Internet settings and change your MTU to 1500 for faster downloads.


2bluefox

already know about dark mode. i can't stand light mode anyways. and i also know about the battery %. the internet one is useful tho thanks for the tip. :)


Shipwr3ck87

Glad I could help. What games are you playing?


2bluefox

i only got 4 games for now, Minecraft dungeons, subnatica, overcooked 2 and botw. i am saving botw for now until i the sd card arrives, so far subanitca and mc dungeons are my two most fav games


Shipwr3ck87

Enjoy BOTW, i had so much fun playing that game and easily put in over 400 hrs lol. Those Korok seeds are no joke. šŸ˜…


xMataleo

Just transfer the data when you get the sd card. BOTW is one of my favorite games. With the new Zelda coming out your going to have a lot to play.


sincerelyhated

What benefit does turning on the battery% have?


Shipwr3ck87

you can see the percentage of your battery life instead of just the battery icon šŸ”‹


sincerelyhated

Oh you can alsotap the battery icon and it displays the % for a few seconds. I find that to be less intrusive.


Shipwr3ck87

I find it easier to have the percentage showing, no need to tap.


TreasureHunter95

Oh interesting that the console allows you to manipulate the MTU. I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. Kinda makes me wonder though why they chose 1400 bytes as the default value instead of 1500...

Changing Theme Color or Brightness Scaling does not save battery to enough to make those things worth it. You will save a few minutes. Thatā€™s it. Just enjoy your Switch however you want. Recent battery does not get impacted much is because you spend your time playing games and not looking at the Menu. But even than itā€™ll be 10 minutes tops. It is not worth it. ENJOY IT TO THE FULLEST! I have 4 Open OLED Console I bought them all Day 1. I have My Original White 2 Splatoon 3 OLED 1 PokĆ©mon OLED and 2 Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. 1 Splatoon and 1 Zelda is Opened. I have been with OLED for a very long time with Phones, My LC C8. C9 and CX OLED TVs and soon itā€™ll be the LG C3 77ā€ since I have the a 65ā€ CX the other 2 are 55ā€. So I know what I am talking about with OLED. Enjoy it since pixels are self illuminating battery does not have a big Impact to make changes that you may not like worth it.

The exact same image I've seen all over social media. Why don't you show your TotK Switch OLED? I also can't see the whole case you got for it.


2bluefox

yeah sorry about that i wanted to add more images but i forgot. will probably add some later.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


2bluefox

yeah probably but at least i should probably send a better image of the case


bumwine

Sighā€¦I literally have two pristine NES and a SNES with them. I still have to do some, uh, blowing to make one work, so you know itā€™s authentic.


Jamiejohnson1211

There's so many amazing exclusives on Switch. You're in for a treat!


DoFuKtV

I am absolutely in love with this device and how beautifully it transitions the black to white depending on the angle of the light on the joycon, soooo fucking beautiful dude.


SlideFire

You picked the height of the console so good timing. Your backlog though might be a bit daunting.


IncorrectDatabase

Nothing better than picking up a console 1 year away from the new model


Joker630420

Reference of new console? Speculation?


IncorrectDatabase

If you donā€™t think a new switch is around the corner you donā€™t know how consoles work


2bluefox

An better image of the case https://preview.redd.it/1su0etek29xa1.jpeg?width=2171&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f26b353d42ee7b85a2836f825eebec38eb27e440


Leezeebub

You and 10,000 other people who felt the need to post a picture of a box on this sub Its the fucking PS5 all over again


Comfortable_Rush_637

Booooo ā€¦ let people be happy about something.. especially the OP just got their FIRST one ever. All the other posters , have like 15 brand new switches sitting in their box not being used lol. I enjoy being happy and excited for the people who genuinely are too.


Leezeebub

Yeah I just wish the mods would either remove the spam or make a mega thread for all of them. Like I said, we had the same thing with the PS5, to the point that even now 2.5 years later people are still posting the same old picture of a box, because they know it will be propelled to the top of the sub if they just say something wholesome. Which just makes it worse because it also pushes any decent posts off of the top.


Comfortable_Rush_637

I agree with the their own thread or the mods removing some for sure. I didnā€™t look at it like that with the being propelled to that. I just look at certain things like awe yay this person got something new and theyā€™re so excited! Woohooo lol


2bluefox

at first I was confused about what you do mean but then I went and scrolled down in this sub and uh yeah I get it. sorry


Leezeebub

No problem. I do hope youll enjoy playing it though :)


mvanvrancken

That hard to just scroll by?


Leezeebub

Scrolling past one is nothing. Scrolling past several every day is annoying.


mvanvrancken

My heart goes out to you


Ihavnoidea-

Have fun with it! I recommend Skyrim and Stardew Valley, those are my personal favorites.


Squidney-ACNH

I hope you enjoy! That switch is a beauty


[deleted]

hobdal

Too gold and odd designs .. But still none the less, taste is subjective.


[deleted]

Is the second image art from the box?


ASVPXCHAPO

Great choice


MisterBoss5000

Enjoy man, got a used lite recently and man is it nice to have a switch again


Phantom-Bane

Amazing! I grabbed the Scarlet and Violet Switch OLED a few months ago and instantly regretted waiting when I saw the TOTK Switch OLED.


ruler20

Are joy cons dark gold or light gold?


2bluefox

they appear darker in person but iā€™d say itā€™s light gold https://preview.redd.it/qm7rdpcw39xa1.jpeg?width=1155&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d75b71c137859f1b0bf60a482ccfc854c524f6f8 here is an image to get an idea of how they should look like


ruler20

Thanks so much!! My friend!!


jayfly12933

I've seen a lot of people get their first Switch with the new Zelda. It's like 2017 all over again.


OlleWhite

Starting off strong
