Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

I don't think Joycon drift is an epidemic ( I'd say at best five percent of switches sold) but it is a known issue. It is rather hard to argue that. I still need to send in my current drifting pair. Since they sell the greens in the US now I'm not as afraid that they may kick them out due to one of them being from Japan. If my DQ ones go I'm just going to buy a new set and rip out the guts. I'm not risking those not being returned.

@MarioLover92 We have Gundams and Space Elevators on ever streetcorner! @bimmy-lee sadly, not. Only some people learn. Those people who TRULY believe in the the light side of the Force!

@Heavyarms55 Sounds awesome. If by any chance you see Mega Man, tell him I say hi!

@ThanosReXXX You too. Have a safe and wonderful New Year (and New Decade, of course), everyone

8 hours to go here. Thinking of gaming a bunch with my friend tonight. We did it last year and had a blast, plus she got Mario Party for Christmas

@HobbitGamer sweet sounds like a solid time. Tw3 just arrived. Might crack it open.

@Ryu_Niiyama Eh? 5%? I mean, I've gone through uh... 8 drift cases since I got the Switch, I figured it was more of an inevitability of the design than something that only some would experience.

@link3710 Yeah, it's as much an inevitability as a small structural weakness for a house foundation. The condition is always there. I used my real life car analogy months ago, and it still stands; There's a certain sub-year set of a generation of Jeep Cherokee motors that turned out to have too weak of a cylinder wall. When it finally cracks, it blows the head gasket on the motor. It can happen at 25,000 miles, or 250,000. No amount of care or proactive action can prevent it. There are certain things that anecdotally may speed up the failure; overheat/radiator problems, continual overloading while towing, infrequent fluid changes, water pump failure. But it's a matter of when and how it will happen, not if. The failure rate was determined to not be of a high enough frequency to warrant any type of recall work, but is noted by present and former Chrysler engineers.
What was I talking about?

Just loaded up the fridge, so I’ll say happy New Year now to everyone. Have fun, and don’t worry too much about being safe. I’m glad I was around for the rare @ThanosReXXX phone post. I watched Gremlins 2: The New Batch one year on New Year’s Eve. What a gem. It never gets mentioned along with Godfather Part Two as the rare sequel that’s better than the original, which is already a classic. It’s showtime!

Oh boy, a brief phone post from @ThanosReXXX ! The New Year already is full of surprises.

Doing dinner and a movie with some of my family. Pretty sure we've decided on Richard Jewell.

Almost 7 1/2 hours and counting here. ^_^

@bimmy-lee @Tyranexx Yup, no text walls from this guy tonight. Between me and my stash of beers, I simply don't have the time... 😂

Ok the Wild World town is clean and ready another new years celebration.

Gotta keep the traditions alive.

@ThanosReXXX So instead of a wall of text, you're armed with a wall of beer. Tasty trade-off!

@Tyranexx Beer and good food, of course. The days of keg parties are long gone... 😉

Happy New Year!!!

Happy new year all. Have a great one.

Did you play Animal Crossing Wild World DS ?

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy New Year to all at Nintendolife and Posters.
My 2 New Years Resolutions of stopping drinkin, and having a positive attitude, has already failed.
Never mind, will try again next year

Richard Jewell was sold out, so we're gonna watch Spies In Disguise instead.

@ThanosReXXX Can't argue with some great food! I've had my fill for now.

Happy New Year to you! Still a little under five hours from midnight lol.

@Anti-Matter yup this town might very well be over ten years old.

We just watched Assassin’s Creed Lineage, and I explained the pre-AC3 games while gobbling Chinese food. Now we’re gettin ready for a Mario Partaaaay
