I recently bought two LCD screens for my old gameboy color. Once I have installed them and try to turn on my GBC, it stays on for a few seconds and then turns off (turns off the whole system not just the screen - the power light goes off too). This happened with both LCD. Is a short circuit causing that? When I put back the old screen, it works.
I really want to install my new LCD screen and apparently I am the only one that can not make it work 😔

What 3DS/DS(i)(ware)/GBA games still need to be ported to the Switch/2?
And . . .
What have been your favourite 3DS/DS(i)(ware)/GBA games that got ported to Switch/2?
I guess for me, I'd like Samus Returns ported to Switch/2 (even though I've played it and finished it on my 2DS. That is one game I'd actually be up to picking up on the Switch/2 and play through again.).
And . . . although I haven't played it yet (but I've got the cart waiting, just in case I actually finish OOT and MM LOL), is Zelda A Link Between Worlds.
As for existing ports, I guess I'm liking Mario vs. Donkey Kong (GBA). I've got the Switch cart, but I don't get a lot of Switch time so I haven't progressed too far on that yet. 'been mainly sticking to our 2DS. :)

"Classic Nintendo 3DS Game Is Exploding in Price to Absurd Highs" . . .
https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/nintendo-3ds-games-tomodachi-life-price/
Apparently loose copies of Tomodachi Life are going for $150 and CIB are going for $175.
Does anyone here buy carts that high in price?
Does anyone have that cart?
What is the most you paid for a cart, and what was it?
The most I've paid for a 3DS game is $50 for Samus Returns, with cart + box.
At one point, I was tempted to try to track down a copy of the Game Cube Zelda Collection . . . but when I got the 2DS I decided to get OOT and MM for the 2DS instead so I could play it on the go. I'm glad I did. I'm sure I've got more gaming in being able to game wherever I am. :)
]]>Pack-in or no pack-in?
Sony gave PS5 buyers ASTRO's Playroom.
Personally, I feel there'll be a pack-in. I just don't have a clue which it would be. MK8D and Breath of the Wild continue to sell incredibly well. And you wouldn't want to mar the launch with Everybody 1-2 Switch or something equally mid.
Snipperclips, perhaps?

GTA 5 strikes me as a Mario Kart 8 type scenario, a great game that is fully complete and just needs to be ported, sounds like an easy win? Maybe even something to test the water with regard to GTA 6?
I suppose we'll need to know more about the Switch 2 hardware before a judgement can be made on if GTA 6 will make it, but if the Switch 2 sells anywhere near what the Switch 1 sold then surely Rockstar would be interested?
]]>Once again, it is a New Year!
What is everyone's plans with your 3DS/2DS?
I got sidetracked last year and ended up not finishing any games on my 2DS. :(
But with the imminent? announcement of the successor to the Switch, it reminded me of all the games I have unfinished on my 2DS. LOL.
Top of my list is to finally finish Zelda OOT. I'm almost done. But I've been almost done since early last year. But I took a sidetrack to run back through the game for missing points. LOL.
Another is Super Mario 3D Land. I finished the regular worlds, but haven't really explored the special worlds.
After that I'm going to start 2 games. I'm going to start Zelda MM and Mario vs. Donkey Kong Minis March Again!
TBH . . . in the "old days" I tried to 100% the games I really liked, but I don't do that anymore. LOL. Too many good games I want to try. :)
]]>SPOILERS for all the SONIC Movies.
I personally think that Sonic Heroes might be possible inspiration.
]]>Now, it should go without saying that since this game has never been available the explanation here doesn't really make any sense. It has me wondering if Amazon is cancelling these pre-orders so that they don't have to adhere to a now long defunct promotion before relisting the game for pre-order following an announcement. If so, that announcement could be very soon. Just wanted to share that info.
]]>3x Bethesda (Skyrim, always a given, am I right? Oblivion Remake? Fallout 76?)
4x Electronic Arts (Madden? The Sims 4? UFC 4? Soccer?)
2x Bandai Namco (Tekken 8? Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero?)
5x Square Enix (Visions of Mana? Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth? Star Ocean: The Divine Force? Forspoken? Valkyrie Elysium?)
2x Take Two (Red Dead Redemption II? Grand Theft Auto V?)
2x Warner Bros. (Batman: Arkham Knight leaked/confirmed & Hogwarts Legacy?)
Opinions? Thoughts? Which ports would you assume?

Fair to assume Nintendo will iterate on the Switch 2.
Pardon my cynicism, but Switch 2 Pro when?
]]>Here is what I would like to see:
-A full sized, open world 3D Mario game in the style of Bowser's Fury
-A Mario Wonder sequel that includes a Mario Maker-style level designer mode
-A Rosalina spinoff that essentially functions as Galaxy 3
-A proper Mario Kart 9 that adapts most of the non-gacha elements from Tour into console games
-Later in the console's lifespan, an open world Mario Kart side entry in the vein of Diddy Kong Racing or Forza Horizons.
-Gen 10 Pokemon that brings back diving but makes it freely controllable like typical action games instead of "press B to warp to the seafloor"
-A reimagining of OoT with BotW-esque open world elements in Hyrule Field
-An open world Splatoon spinoff
-An Animal Crossing spinoff starring Tom Nook which is more of a business management sim.
-A 3D Kirby game that's more Metroidvania style
-A 3D DK game that's a hybrid platformer/beat em up (think something like the Werehog from Sonic Unleashed).
-A remake of Kirby 64 that adds Leaf and Water along with new combo abilities for them, as well as 4 player co-op allowing other players to play as Waddle Dee (maybe retconned to Bandana Dee), Adeline, and King Dedede.
-A 2.5D reimagining of Yoshi's Story with a gimmick that lets Yoshi interact with pop-up book elements to affect the level (for example, you could pull on pull tabs with Yoshi's tongue to cause platforms to appear)
-A Super Metroid remake that adds in some newer abilities and overhauls Maridia (no Super Metroid is not perfect, Maridia's design is utterly terrible).
-A new Star Fox game that's more of a Starlink/No Man's Sky style open space game
Additionally, I have no specific ideas for what to see from these games but I would definitely like to see new entries in 2D Zelda, 2D Kirby, Metroid Prime 5 with Metroid Prime 4 also being cross gen, Luigi's Mansion, Mario vs. DK, Captain Toad, and a revival of Wario Land.
Pie in the sky stuff, but if we can even get a quarter of this the Switch 2 that would be a great lineup.
