@SuperWeird I don't think a few guys who love Nintendo taking a moment to discuss life is really the end of the world. Unless of course NL has an old fart Switch owners thread where stuff like this can mentioned without causing undue offence to passers by.
This forum deviates all the time, and it always comes back around. Conversation leads where it leads. Don't try to fight it, just roll with it. If it doesn't come back around after a while, then something needs to be said.
Marble It Up just released. From the devs of Marble Blast Ultra (a cult classic that has fans literally going out to buy a Switch just to play Marble It Up, according to comments I've seen on reddit), and who actually worked on Marble Madness on NES.
Time to try it out.

Anyone know if twewy supports coop in the main campaign across two consoles wirelessly? The game page says wireless 2p but everything i read suggests split joycon only. I'm still not sure if I'm cool with the control schemes though.
Split joycon is needed to imitate touch controls with the pointer. Otherwise you can use touch in handheld mode.

Ohhhh sneaky sneaky sneaky Amazon..... I've started getting emails about switch games i preordered before the discount ended that the item is no longer available so they're cancelling the order...... But don't worry you can place your order again (for 20% more money) if it's available!
I have about had it with the most consumer unfriendly store. Surely Sears and kmart are better than them at this point. Bezos needs to make an appointment with the front of a freight train.
I miss Kmart. We used to visit Kmart every year on our holiday trip to Arizona. The last time we went, the shop was basically empty, they were selling the shelves and everything.
It was sad.
About Amazon, I've been very lucky so far with them. No bad experiences with preorders. And I hope it stays that way.
@NEStalgia Can't say I'm surprised, Amazon's going to keep getting worse until a new competitor arrives. It's the same reason the XB1 successor needs to beat the PS5, 2 generations of Sony in the lead will be dangerous to gaming.
Eh, locally K-Mart went out of business a few years ago. Sears closed it's doors a 2 or 3 decades ago as well. Target's still around, but it's mainly a clothing and (crappy) grocery store these days. The other departments are rather underwhelming, often taking up only one or two shelf units.
I'm really hoping some retailer is seeing the massive gap in physical game discount programs now that Gamer's Club, Amazon, and Gamestop have all dropped their discount stuff. Like how AMC and others rose up when moviepass just kept getting worse and worse.
But Amazon cancelling preorders made with a discount after they kill the discount, that's got to be close to class action suit ready at that point. Along with dropping weekend delivery. In the same year they drive prime prices through the roof. They've officially cornered enough of the market they don't even need to pretend to be customer friendly anymore, you exist to serve them, not the other way around, now. I'm hoping this will backfire mightily. Other stores have to be able to smell the blood in the water.
@Grumblevolcano Unfortunately I don't know that I see a competitor arriving. Amazon has vertically integrated the entire supply chain, which is illegal, but the government let them do it, meanwhile Amazon hosts the government's own data.......probably with government funding to expand to do it. They own the means to compete with them. The only real competitor is Walmart, so even though they're even more loathsome, I'm hoping they start curb stomping amazon. I may start buying everything on walmart.com now. I haven't bought there in a decade.
@subpopz Yeah, same problem. They designed this whole area that you have one area that's all business and industrial with some resedential. Then vast anti-business swaths that are nothing but sprawling luxury homes for miles and miles. Then on the other side of that, a shopping district that's 5 huge shopping centers, all separated by like 3 miles, with 10 minutes travel between each, and while the whole district used to be 20 minutes away, with the fact that they've built thousands of homes in the past decade yet not a single new road, and centralized all shopping in one place and all business in another place, everything is clogged, and what took 20 minutes now takes 40-60 minutes each way, plus 10 minutes between each store you want to go to, plus all the time actually wandering the stadium sized stores, so a shopping trip to brick and mortar is now a 4 hour task minimum. If it can't be bought online it simply can't be bought, now. [insert string of expletives here]
But I was happy with Amazon....loyal customer, great service. Suddenly in the past 8 months it's going rapidly downhill. Right about when they raised prices on prime. Walmart was massively advertising 2 day shipping. Now that it can't be worse than amazon's, why not?
@MisterPi I really can't believe every store dropped physical discounts while digital is growing by leaps and bounds. They clearly don't really want the business I guess. Maybe not high enough margin to fight for.

Sadly that's unlikely. Brick & Mortar stores are in the process of dying out (especially specialty stores like video games). It's funny in a slightly morbid way. National chains like Wal-Mart, K-Mart, and Target drove small locally owned department stores out of business and have nearly killed small locally owned businesses across the nation. And now Brick & Mortar department stores are starting to lose business to online shopping more and more. How long will it be until even Wal-Mart has to close it's last physical store and becomes an online only vender?
