What is that for the 500th Street Pass ?

Remember getting a lot of streetpass hits when I went to the NY Comic Con, was useful for certain games which I didn't get a lot of hits for. Sadly all of that went to waste since when I got my 3DS back from repairs, they wiped my Streetpass progress clean for the lulz.

I'm a bit disappointed by how the second scenarios in the Resident Evil 2 Remake are nearly identical to the first scenarios.

The original had two different alternate storylines (which were somewhat combined in this one), and more different unique areas and bosses for the second scenario. There was still some sameness, but they made a bit more sense in their own narrative.

Here the only difference is that you get to skip like half an hour at the begining, and items are shuffled (plus the tyrant appears way sooner). Both characters do the same things at the same time but in like alternate universes that somehow converge to form one.

So tl;dr they decided to settle on a single narrative, which makes the second scenario useless, and left some specific details more ambiguous.

You know, i have THREE 3DS XL machines (2 USA version, 1 Japan version) so i can always do the Street Pass or Spot Pass whenever i want. 🤓

Why do you have two from the same region?

One for the kiddy games, and one for the chibi shirtless men games.

Or maybe they're just different models and not everyone throws away their old systems after getting a new model.

One is Rose Pink & White Old 3DS XL USA version (my first Original machine bought on 2 November 2013) and one is Pearl White New 3DS XL Asian version (bought on 5 February 2017).

I still kept the old model because my progress and DLC of Fantasy Life was still tied on the Old model machine. And beside, that was my machine to listen the MP3 & capturing photos or recording videos before i bought smartphone later.

"One for the kiddy games, and one for the chibi shirtless men games."

Well, my Pinky NDS Lite is for playing K-1 Pocket Grand Prix 1& 2 and Animal Boxing NDS. Those are my Chibi Shirtless men games. 😛

I have a Metallic Rose DS Lite that I bought used. It's mainly intended to be a backup for both DS games (less likely) and GBA games (fairly likely) should the need arise.

Rumour: The Direct will reveal the sequel of ARMS, currently under the working title of FARMS; it will be a dating sim for horses and sheep.

@Octane Actually, it will be a bullet-hell shooter called SWARMS, in which weapons can be individually shot and controlled, by moving the JoyCon forward. After firing, you can tilt the JoyCon to give the projectiles the after-touch that they might potentially need to also be able to hit the more evasive enemies...

It will implement a new CHARM system, by which players can ensure that mystery gifts are received in the Switch news feed in discreet, unmarked packages.

@ReaderRagfihs Harming unarmed farmers would be quite alarming. Though that barman from yesterday deserves some karma for serving lukewarm beer, I wasn't very charmed.

@ThanosReXXX Good concept, but I don't think Miyamoto would approve. Add some cardboard, and then we'll talk.

@Octane Well, it's either that or giant Robots...

Featuring a special Capcom character, the Guildmarm from Monster Hunter 4.

My unnamed Nintendo sources have stated that they ARE working on a sequel, but first Nintendo will release a sort of ARMS 1.5 (kinda like New Super Luigi U) with the working title LEGS.

The TRUE sequel will incorporate all of the elements of ARMS and LEGS but will be a dual release like Pokemon with another customizable limb exclusive to each version; they're currently code-named HEADS and TAILS. They're supposed to release in 2022 right before the Metroid Prime 4 demo is released.

Ok something a bit silly hapoened.

So I randomly visited the Amazon page for Resident Evil 2 Remake to check the reviews, and noticed some of them mentioned getting a decorative patch as a preorder bonus. I was like, (internally) "I PREORDERED, WHERE'S MY FREE THING".

I told my brother, who also pre-ordered his copy. And without telling me, he opened a complaint with Amazon.

Then I went back to check the site..... And noticed.... I was looking at the PS4 version of the game. We got it for Xbox One.

Welp. Best case scenario we get free patches, worst case scenario he ends up looking like a fool. My bad!

This thread gold is more valuable than the boxite in the Direct thread.

Also, I present you with Outdoor Business Jack;

Oh my God, he goes on walks with leash and all?

That's adorable.

@JackEatsSparrows I just wanted to let you know, but it seems like yer cat is missing an eye. I'm no cat expert, so don't take my word for it.
