Well, somebody's going to probably say I'm wrong, and get annoyed at me, but somebody has to play the skeptic, and remind you all of somethings.

Okay, so this Switch rumor, I'd just like to remind you all of a little something, nothing to big, but just because something comes from a reliable source doesn't make it true.

Need I all remind you all of the Shovel Knight in Smash rumour...

I'm just gonna say, do all of you need to go back to leaks/rumours training school? You know where we're taught to always be skeptic, cause reliable doesn't mean 100% true.

I did some digging. I'd be shocked if it wasn't true at this point.

It seems the thing that got leaked was a letter from Nintendo to third parties.

Well, I'm still holding to the possibility of it not being true, since I don't believe anything until its 100% confirmed from the actual people in charge of the product in question. Also you have a good source for that letter?

Although I did have an interesting idea, now just hear me out here, before you guys go poking holes in it.

What if the Dock itself can be upgraded and stuff? Like say you only have to buy a new dock to make the Switch more powerful, while keeping the, let's call it the Switch Tablet for lack of a better a name right now, since I can't remember if it has an official name or not.

Meaning you wouldn't have to buy a whole new system, just the dock itself, which would actually make things a bit cheaper I think if say a dock breaks, maybe.

Or another idea is that Nintendo could come out with more powerful Switch tablet's that can be plugged into the dock, allowing for it again to be much cheaper when upgrading.

Plus with my idea above, upgrading the system would become a lot more easier.

You can poke holes in my idea now, but I still like the idea of a system that's easy to upgrade by just switching in new parts and such. And I swear Nintendo filed a patent a while back that was similar to my idea of being to switch and add in parts that would upgrade the system's specs and such.

If you replace the dock and the tablet on the Switch is it still the same Switch?

Man where the **** do you get the ice stone?


If you forget about it it'll fly by.
Go to the big house in the back of Po Town. Use the left door which leads to a different outside section. There's one there.

Unrelated, but congrats for getting your comic back up and running! :D
Thanks. It's been a long time but it feels good to have it going again.

Only reason I haven't traded my electabuzz or magmar to evolve yet is because I need to breed them to perfection

You only get 1 of the evolution items and I don't want to waste them

Well, it was just an idea, plus Nintendo is actually trying that whole unified account thing finally. Also nothing has said so far that the memory is internal, so who know maybe you could take the hard drive out of one one dock/tablet and plug it into another easily.

Plus if you could switch out docks and tablets we'd have a another reason why the switch is called switch, cause your able to switch out parts

In case you want another Magmarizer/Electirizer/King's Rock, get a Compound Eyes Butterfree and teach it Thief. As long as it leads the party, 5% wild held items increase to 20%, so battling a couple of Magby/Elekid/Hariyama should get you the desired item :p

After I got an extra Electirizer, I gave it to an Electabuzz and put it on the GTS asking for an Electivire. Then, I traded the Electivire for a Magmortar and so on for every trade evolution.

I thought about the switching parts thing, but on a different angle.

Since the dock isn't currently rumored to be anything but a cooling station, I figured the Joy-Cons were the parts you might be able to swap out. It'd make customization a lot easier, and having easily replaceable Joy-Cons would address one of the main complaints about the Wii U.

At elast, that's what a ton of people have been speculating, and it does sound fun. One of the patent papers had a Joy-Con with a regular D-pad, too.

I think I'mma get my Sandslash into my party somehow.

I named it Heavy Joe to honour the Sandlash I used in my Pokemon Blue play through back in the day. It was Joe. Alolan Sandslash is heavier hence Heavy Joe

Went to play Animal crossing for the first time in over 2 years (according to the villagers)

No one has left the town.
Like 3 weeds have grown
