Nintendo Switch lite - How similar is SmileBASIC4 to Python?

Nintendo Switch Lite - Blue

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I like dabbling with Python since the day, I bought myself a Raspberry pi 3. I was interested in building my own smart car robot and they use python to control it. The good thing is that there are many tutorials online that you can easily follow.

Frankly, I had always wanted to learn to code but didn't get the chance to. When I first heard of the Raspberry pi, I didn't really think much about it. But when I saw that you can create your own smart robot, I decided to get one. That's how I discovered Python and found out how easy it is to learn.

One of the problems for me is that I don't have the discipline to keep learning. It's not as if I have to take a test for it. But, I like to try out new things and see if I can make them work. It's that eureka feeling that got me excited.

My favorite portable gaming console is the Nintendo Switch lite. When I discovered that I can learn to code and create my own games with SmileBASIC4 and FUZE4, I was really excited and bought both of them. I got more excited when I discovered that smilebasic and python are so much alike.

If you have the Nintendo Switch, you can link to your TV for a bigger screen. It'll be much better for a full coding setup. You can't do that with the Switch lite. So, most of the time, I just try out code on my bed before going to sleep. But, I can still use a mouse and keyboard if I want to.

You can actually game with a mouse and keyboard on the Nintendo Switch but you need a console adapter. With that adapter, you can connect a mouse and keyboard and play like on a computer. This is the same kind of adapter that's also compatible with your Xbox and PS4.

I wonder if someone in Nintendo had actually read my blog. Because I have talked about using my Nintendo Switch to control my raspberry pi 3 smart car before. And, now, they've come out with this? I'm also hoping that there will be a Mario Drone or something like that. You hear it here first!

Now, that will be really cool. Playing Mario or Luigi or Princess drone racing. Would be fun to be able to take videos while you're flying. Of course, you need a good camera, which the Switch doesn't have. I don't know why there is a camera on the 3DS but no camera on the switch?

I actually didn't know or did I? That smilebasic for the 3DS was already available back then. I was wondering if the software is available so that I can use it on my phone with an emulator. Lo and behold! Now, I can use smilebasic 3ds on my phone. Check out my video demo here.

What I like about python is that you can use it practically anywhere. I have a version of it on my phone so that, I can try code whenever I've got an idea. Or if I've learned something new and want to try it out. That's what so great about the smartphone today. It's a powerful mini-computer inside your pocket!

That's why, if I have the money and it's becoming cheaper, I want to get the Samsung Z Fold 2 or future Z Fold 3? I want to open it up halfway and use it as a laptop. Open it up fully and you can use it as a tablet. This is pretty much the future of mobile phone laptops.

What more do you need when you can practically do everything with a mobile phone? You can play games, check emails, social media, take pictures or videos, edit them and upload them on youtube to share with the world or just with your colleagues.

I want Samsung or Microsoft to expand on this idea and create the perfect blend of mobile phone laptops. They need to improve and think of new innovations for a mobile phone that can be close and use as a phone or open up and use as a laptop or tablet.

Once they have that, it'll be way cool to use Visual Studio, the Android version.

Super Nintendo World Direct 12.18.2020

Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I was a little lazy to watch the latest Super Nintendo World direct 12.18.2020. But, decided to watch it anyway. I'm glad I did. Mr, Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo did a quick tour and updates on Universal Studios Japan's new area, Super Nintendo World.

I must say, I love it. Hoping to be able to visit it one day. I've never been to Japan, it's already an interesting ancient place to visit. Everyone basically, knows japan for the legends of Samurai, it's swords, anime, games, music, and movies.

Isn't it kind of ironic that Japan used to be involved in the world war with Germany to conquer the world? Just shows that peace is the only solution for a country's success. There's still war in the middle east and some parts of Africa.

All these idiots, vying for power and wealth. What's the use of all that if it's only temporary and your country in ruins? In the end, it's the people that suffer. Yes, people have differences in thinking, but war is never the solution.



Nintendo Switch - Animal Crossing: New Horizons Edition - Switch

Anyway, what I like about the Nintendo World is how colorful it is. It's just nice just to be able to visit the physical Mario and Luigi world. It's almost as if you're inside the game itself. I would really like to try the Mario Kart racing game.

The Super Nintendo World looks like such a happy place to be. You can walk around and interact with the surrounding. If you get a special watch, you can hit a block and get coins. You'll be able to walk through the famous pipe and eat at the toad, mushroom restaurants.

The place will also have some of the music in the games played out. So, it'll really make the atmosphere familiar and fun. One thing I kept thinking while Mr. Miyamoto showed the place is how there'll be so many people, it'll be jam-packed.

The Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan will open on February 4th, 2021. Well, I'm not sure if it will since the pandemic is still not totally controlled around the world. Hopefully, the vaccines will help. Once everyone had the vaccines, people will be free to move around again.



Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit -Mario Set - Nintendo Switch Mario Set Edition

Meanwhile, the only physical Mario Kart racing I'll be able to play is the new Mario Kart Live. Which is pretty interesting to play with while you're stuck at home in the pandemic. It'll be more fun if there's Mario Drone or Mario Robot.

If you're interested in learning, creating, or playing with your own mechanical robots, get a Raspberry pi robot. You'll learn how to code in Python programming which is great for amateurs or experts enthusiasts alike.

Last but not least is that Super Nintendo World will also be open in the United States and Singapore in Asia. So, if you can't go to Japan, you can visit states like Hollywood, California, Orlando, and Florida which Super Nintendo World will also open soon in the near future.

Well, what you guys think?

Nintendo Switch Lite Getting Popular With Over 6 Million Sold!

Nintendo Switch Lite - Zacian and Zamazenta Edition

Hey guys,

Check it out!

The Nintendo Switch is slowly growing in popularity. I remember getting it around June 11, 2017. Go here if you want to read my blog post about it back then. Actually, I bought it on a whim. My nephew read the news about FIFA18 coming to the switch, while I was more intrigued by Skyrim.

Although the games available were limited, I stuck with it. There were already people selling off their switch, back then. The lack of games was jarring. Even then, I still enjoyed playing Zelda Breath of The Wild and Mario Kart.




The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Nintendo Switch



Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Nintendo Switch

I love playing Mario Kart. Still do today. Frankly, I wasn't really sure about the Nintendo Switch when it first came out. When I saw the ads, I was like, meh. Even the Pokemon C.E.O didn't think it will become successful. Of course, everyone was comparing it to the PSP Vita too.

For some reason, PSP Vita failed and Sony pulled the plug. Although, I read that it has already sold around 16 million now. Not bad, even though compared to the combined sales of 55 million for the Nintendo Switch and switch lite.



Nintendo Switch Lite - Zacian and Zamazenta Edition

I recently sold my Nintendo Switch and got myself the Switch lite, Zacian, and Zamazenta special edition. Love the back design. Which, I think is better for me as I seldom docked my switch to play on Tv. Although, I actually loved that ability.

I also already have a Sony Playstation Vita which I got a couple years back. Seldom play on it and bewildered that I can't watch youtube on it anymore. At least, I can still listen to music with it. I was thinking of hacking it but, didn't want to as it still looks new.




Sony PlayStation Vita WiFi

Sony might want to ride the wave of the Nintendo switch popularity and support it again. 16 million sold is not a small change. In fact, it's still a powerful portable gaming console even though, it's been years. A great entertainment gaming system!

Right now, I'm just happy downloading and playing games on my Switch lite. Again, I wish for more popular Tripple AAA games and apps. The switch badly needs a music and video player. VLC was supposed to come to the switch but it's been almost two years?

Nintendo needs to learn from the Apple store. That's where the money at. There are many apps, games, music, tv shows, movies, podcast, etc. Do deals with the music and movie industries and you'll further explode, the eShop.




Nintendo Switch Online 12-Month Individual Membership [Digital Code]

At least, youtube is now available on the switch. Besides playing games, I love watching the news and music clips on it. I even watched a free full movie on it and it's not that bad. Some people might say, they're not interested in watching movies or listening to music on the portable gaming console, but I do. You don't speak for me!

So, c'mon Netflix and Spotify. Come join the Nintendo Switch. In fact, it would be way cool and cheaper if both Netflix and Spotify are offered bundles together with the Nintendo Switch Online membership. Now, that will be awesome and turn the switch into a complete entertainment system. You heard the idea from me here first!

Cleaning Nintendo Switch Joy-con with WD-40 to solve drifting #nintendoswitch

Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

(All links will open up in a new tab.)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I've had my Nintendo Switch for a couple of years now. No doubt about it, this is the best portable gaming console. My nephew loves playing it in hand-held mode. Sometimes I prefer docking it and playing Mario Kart on my big-screen TV.

There have been rumors of a 2020 pro version. Well, I hope it's true. They need to catch up with the latest Xbox series and PS5. Which would have better graphics and games. I wonder if they can do it with a portable console though. 

First, they need to solve the joy-con drifting problem. At first, I was hoping, mine wasn't affected. One can wish. But, mine had already started to drift while gaming. It wasn't that bad. I can still play games without affecting the gameplay.


Overcooked! 2 - Nintendo Switch

My niece played a cookhouse game with her friend and told me the controller had a problem. I've done my research and there are videos on how to take apart the joy-con and clean the inside. I was lazy and thought I'd do it one day.

Yesterday, I docked my system and decided to watch some YouTube videos and the joy-con keeps drifting and changing the video on its own. When I tried to navigate the videos it kept going to the right. It was starting to get on my nerves. I finally switched it off and went to sleep.

I decided to strip the whole joy-con and clean it first thing in the morning. I checked out some videos on it and found a video by a YouTuber using the nickname Nintendrew. He had a better solution. Just use an alcohol base lubricant to clean the joy-con.


WD-40 Multi-Use Product with SMART STRAW SPRAYS 2 WAYS 8 OZ

I remembered I had a WD-40 which is mostly used as a lubricant to clean up lots of rust stuff and for work. I'll try using it. I turned off my switch and took off the controller. I sprayed some lubricants on a dry tissue and cleaned the joystick base.

Some use a toothbrush or cotton swabs to brush and wipe away whatever dirt might hinder the joy-con movement or connections. I only use what I have for now. If it works, I might get them later on. Did what I could and tested it.

Lo and behold. It works! How long until it starts up again? But, one thing is for sure, I don't have to take apart my joy-con. I tried playing some games and navigating through YouTube videos and it didn't drift anymore.

Now, I can watch my favorite YouTube videos in relative peace without the joy-con moving on its own and playing random videos. I will be asking my nephew to test it out later on too. I also want to know how long before it starts to drift again.

Well, that's a load off my mind. And, I was actually thinking of buying a new joy-con instead. Actually, I was thinking of getting joy-cons with a different color. It'll be fun to mix and match colors and make your switch more fun to use!

• 2 Pack Analog 3D Joy-con Joystick Replacement for Nintendo Switch, Joycon Repair Kit Switch joysticks compatible with Left and Right Switch Joy-con Controller Full NS Repair Tool Set(19 in 1)

I hope this helps if you guys have the same joy-con drifting problem. If not, you have to take it apart and see what's causing it. There might be some faulty mechanism inside. Or, just your luck to receive a factory defect controller right out of the box.
