That most important info I got from those screeshots is that the devkit has an option to "ensure network clock availability" which I guess means it gets the time from the network. Finally, a Nintendo console that won't display incorrect time after a few months.

There's also a manual brightness control which is something people weren't too sure about.

I sometimes catch myself doing this with important research files. Haven't fucked up yet though because i'm mad paranoid.

Someone point me towards a better naming/organizing method. I implore you.

Even the GBA SP, and the Micro had manual brightness control =/
No Nintendo home console or handheld has been able to synchronize its internal clock with the internet before though.

Try puting the date in the filename. Use Year, Month, Day format. 201702017Research.docx or Research_2017_02_01.docx.

Woops!

I got to say, I like that dev menu look much better then the Wii U's dev menu. Looks kinda stylish. Wii U's was basically just lines of text..

I guess I was moments too late. Anyone have a video mirror that isn't going to be immediately claimed for copyright on YouTube?

Why would they even have the system on if they were just going to edit some game footage over it?

As someone how's had to replace screens on devices for commercials like this let me break it down:

The production side doesn't listen to people like me if i'm not on set. which unless the production company is also doing the post-production is not likely. I kid you not, on MULTIPLE occasions i was given footage that had green card stock taped to a tv screen. I still have nightmares about this.

Personally I prefer the screen to be off especially if there's nothing in-front of it. I can use the natural reflections to my advantage.

Having not seen a switch in person it's possible that when the screen is off it's hard to see where the actual screen is in relation to the bezel so having the screen on would help with tracking. I'd also need the raw camera files to see if i could create enough contrast to get an easy track done with the screen off. or you could just track the corners of the device itself but, you know, reasons...

If the device can be turned on and have an image loaded to display this is ideally what you would want to do, especially if you have hands or anything in-front of the screen so you can get a nice key made.

Hope this helps.

So that it's easier to guess how bright to make your overlay in each shot, and how reflections should affect it, so it looks more realistic.

Maybe they're trying to sell the fact that development on Switch is so enjoyable. Haha. Funny oversight, nonetheless.

Same happened for me like, just today.

I had:

(Insert Name)
(Insert Name) Good
(Insert Name) Final

And then I had to look which one was edited at a later date in order to know which one was the correct piece. Of course, "Final" was the correct piece of paper, but I still triplechecked just in case.

Loooool XD what's the story behind this?

Stranger Things won an award at the Screen Actors Guild, and while the one guy was making a rousing acceptance speech about America and Trump's Muslim Ban, some people were distracted because Winona Ryder standing right next to him appeared to be high as a kite.

It seems that someone has concluded that she was hallucinating pizza.
