@Bulbousaur Aw, man, that doesn't sound fun. Hate to say it, but I think you should probably go see Nintendo Support about that. Customer Service is never pretty, especially with game companies, so best of luck to you in going through that.

@Miss_Dark Hey, chin-up! You'll do fine as long as you remember everything you've learned! If nothing else, the Nintendo Life family's rooting for you. Good luck!

The seemingly ever ongoing gloom for Nintendo. And the lack of a Direct isn't helping to lighten the mood either. Hopefully one is just around the corner.

During today's errands, I forgot my house keys and locked myself out of the house... Stuck outside in the rain for 2 or so hours total. Thankfully, after walking a mile or so, I managed to get hold of a locksmith who opened the door for me. As far as my parents are concerned, this never happened. It's all good now obviously but I feel like an idiot for leaving my house keys on my bed when I left. I didn't even realise until after I got on the train I had to take...

I forgot to eat breakfast before going to school. I tried to stay awake as hard as I can.

The Wireless card that came with my computer is a piece of junk, my connection is constantly going up and down while everything else works fine, and I can't get a good signal when everything else gets 4-5 bars.

@WingedSnagret Ditto. What I'd do for some good news on Nintendo these days...

@DreamyViridi Ugh, that sounds like something I'd do. >_< My condolences to your self-esteem. I hope it recovers.

@CanisWolfred I don't see why you'd think Disney would go that route with the CG (especially since it's a post-Frozen Disney) other than 'Sony and FOX did it that way in their Live-Action/CG hybrid film'. Hate to say it, 'cause I do like to yell at Disney when they get things wrong, but I think you're being too cynical about this, man.

I realized I'm wasting my life doing nothing. After realizing that, I'm still doing nothing.
Plus, my butt is big, even though I'm skinny.

I opened the fridge looking for some fruit to eat, but there wasn't a single kind of fruit in there! I don't think I can stand a day without a fruit!

What are they gonna do, use puppets? They said Live-Action. It's not even a CG movie. That's gonna mean people alongside cartoon characters, and they're gonna need a miracle to not make that look weird.

I know exactly how you feel. Minus the butt part. :/

I said I don't think they're gonna go that route with the CG (assuming we're both talking about the same 'Smurfs/Alvin' uncanny valley).

As for the 'people alongside cartoon characters' issue: It's been done before (not CG, but Disney's gotten good at CG so I'm sure it won't matter) and, since Disney has a history with miracles, I'm optimistic about how they'll handle it.

IMO, Real people alongside CG is uncanny by default. It's hard enough seeing it in movies like Transfirmers, but at least those are trying to look realistic (even though it still looks fake). When they try to make them look cartoonish, the real people just exemplify how fake they look and it just winds up being disturbing. It works with 2D characters because they're such a polar opposite, but CG is stuck in a sort of limbo between Cartoon and reality, and as such can never work alongside real people.

Really, mixed formats in general look weird and there's absolutely no need to do them. Once the novelty where's off, it just ends up looking worse than it could've been.
