@Yousef- Yeah, I watched it kind of out of curiosity since I purchased a game on the Xbox featuring characters from the show, and also because I liked the art style (especially the character designs and bright colors) and animation, though I find the choppier Flash animation from the older seasons has a sort of charm to it. I haven’t seen all the episodes, but I did like some of the ones I’ve seen, not too into the violence though. I especially liked the episodes from the Ka-Pow! spin-off a ton. I think one of the show’s greatest strengths is delivering funny humor and telling stories without any dialogue, which the writers said they avoid doing so the show is funnier.
I’m not getting it either (at least right now) but I don’t mind since I have a lot of fun games on the phone to play instead. But I hope the people that do have lots of fun with it! And the cooking stuff sounds very fun! Ribeye is one of my favorite meats to eat, though chicken is my number one favorite, and it especially tastes awesome spicy. I find that chicken tastes really good seasoned with garlic salt and garlic powder, I use those all the time when I’m cooking chicken.
I mainly would like a Switch 2 since some exclusives aren’t going to be playable on the OG Switch, namely DK Bananza, which I found was the most fun and interesting-looking game in the April Direct, and it did give me a small bit of Rareware vibes when I saw some of the gameplay demonstration, so i definitely want to play it when I eventually have a Switch 2. And sorry about the L button on your Switch breaking, that must have sucked. It actually hurts me a lot when a controller I have starts to have issues working or breaks. A majority of the Joy-Cons me and my family had with our Switches started to drift really bad, and the only controllers that work well is a Pro Controller and two other third-party Pro Controllers. We originally had three, but one broke and is unusable. Speaking of that, it’s a relief that they said OG Switch controllers can work with the 2, at least it’ll help save money so you don’t have to get new controllers every time.
Sorry to hear about how you felt, I can understand feeling a bit shy after having taken a break from the site and Discord for quite a while, and moderating forums and stuff sounds like a difficult job! Did some of the moderating go fine in the end? I hope that it did! It’s fine if you don’t want to expand upon it here.
For me I’ve just been playing Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage far more frequently. For a while I wasn’t too active but I’m playing it almost daily because my Xbox’s HDMI port broke, so I can’t see what I’m playing if I boot it up but it’s going to get fixed soon. In Colorful Stage, I’ve been increasing my rank and playing charts on Master mode for fun. I usually play on Expert, and I have Master charts unlocked from either getting full combos on Expert or getting less than 7 good/bad/miss notes, and I have managed to full combo 13 Master charts and got an achievement for that! Some charts are still tricky for me though. Then today, I downloaded an HTF game called Deadeye Derby, which I heard about but for some reason I randomly assumed it was delisted or offline because the game is from a decade ago? To my surprise it’s not, so I downloaded it but I haven’t tried it yet.
I haven’t been emulating old games on the phone lately, but it can be fun, so I imagine playing those RPGs has been super fun! I used to do it a lot a decade ago. I emulated DK64 back in April after they revealed Bananza, but I haven’t touched it since then…while I enjoy Rare’s platformers, I’m not into playing platformers right now but I’m sure I’ll go back to DK64 at some point. I did also try to play DKR but goodness the N64 controls do NOT translate well to a small phone screen. Good to hear that you got a new car you’re enjoying a lot, and I hope you keep liking it!
You must have a lot of free time soon, that sounds great, especially with you traveling! I hope when you visit Bosnia that you have a great time, and it looks very fantastic from the photos you showed.
Yeah, I remembered that the GameCube games are going to be exclusive to that, so it’s going to have plenty of retro exclusives on there too! I’ve heard plenty of people saying they just want it for Wind Waker, which is understandable because I was kind of like that sometimes with some consoles I want haha. It remind me of when I wanted a Xbox but solely because I wanted to play Rare’s games.
After covering the position above me on now three seperate occasions - Jan 2023-Apr 2023, July 2023-October 2023, and May 2025 to yesterday....
I got given the job. No more paid overtime, loads of responsibility and a lot of things to put in place and fix in 3 weeks that havent been done in.....two years.

@Pastellioli Yeah. The entire staff quit back in 2015 cause of corporate practices. And I'm still angry about that messed up order.
Yeah. That makes sense. I had a similar issue with Dragalia. By the time I wanted to dive in, the game had updated the necessary specs. My device was no longer compatible!
Sakurai made a point of bringing some characters new games, or trying to garner interest in a new game for some. I doubt it was a coincidence that Marth and Roy became popular in Melee, then FE finally made it out of Japan. Later, Kid Icarus Uprising happened. And Twitter's worst topic imo, was politics. They would ban ppl for complaining about censorship, but if it was in favor of the popular ppl, a group could literally fearmonger, and suffer nothing.
Weird conversation, yeah. And funny meme. The idea that they're all similar anime swordfighters has kinda been derailed with the past couple games, but it's still funny.
Ahh. A vanished comment? Yeah. I didn't like that change. I'm always logged into twitter when I open it up, but fewer and fewer ppl are around.
I still think Iwata was keeping those practices at bay. When switch launched, I was outraged by the sheer disrespect to Wii U, 3ds, and fans of those systems. And yes. Them breaking consoles, in whole or in part, because someone inserted a bootleg, or otherwise non-official copy of a game...is gonna have repercussions. I do hope fans find a workaround..
I am very much the same. Very talky and excited, but when I feel like something's wrong, or there's silence with no idea what to expect, I panic, and get paranoid. I also rant too much.
I did indeed run into on of them at launch! They showed up an hour late for the cosplay contest, in cosplay, as they only cosplayer. We talked at length, with me mostly ranting over my frustrations, cause year and a half of buildup.. And we exchanged contact info, and other info. The person who has me universally muted/blocked wasn't there, but it's a start! If I could just promote communication, I might just be able to at least apologize...I found out he went through some stuff after removing me. Also that he probably got upset cause I complained too much.
@Mariotag Alrighty, I just don't find most animated movie reviews on YouTube useful. Considering most of the time I see a review, I could get what I'm looking for by watching the movie myself, then the review becomes useless since the review is mostly a summary with complaining.
Fair enough, I like Disney but they've done stuff that didn't interest me or stuff I didn't like much. I saw Wish a year after it was released, and I just didn't enjoy the characters as much. Usually I look forward to liking different characters when watching an animated movie, but Wish's characters didn't do anything for me. Though Wish wasn't as bad as YouTubers made it out to be.
@MarioVillager92 I'm not too sad, given how popular the Switch is, I think it's going to continue on for some more years unlike the Wii U having its physical games suddenly end (no joke, I own 3 of the 4 Wii U physical games from 2017). Watching Summer Game Fest, both Sonic Racing CrossWorlds and the Nicktoons game (I loved Nicktoons Unite on GameCube) gave me something to look forward to.
Indeed, it's just been on my mind lately. Those are some good memories, I remember the time I saw Frozen II in theater too.
Nice, I think I bought Freedom Planet on Wii U the day it came out. I also remember getting Splatoon the day it came out, with an Amiibo from my local GameStop. I think I might have pre-ordered Splatoon literally the day before, just to make picking it up easier. Last time I pre-ordered a game was My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure, but I did that online and had it delivered.
Now I think about it, it's been a long time since I bought a game from a store. The last time I got physical Switch games were birthdays and Christmases.
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
I don't own a Switch 2 right now, but to those of you who got it, I hope you're enjoying it. Hope you're all staying cool and hydrated, too... it's been getting pretty hot over here. Over here, today was all right, but yesterday was ridiculous in terms of heat.
@Pastellioli That's good you're trying to find your own style. I think my own drawing style more so leans towards simplistic or stylized, since I've always liked cute and cartoony things. But I can do more realistic drawings with the help of still life objects, or in some cases, photo references. I think what made me gravitate towards a cartoony style was that I've always liked animated cartoons and movies more than live-action stuff. I've been like that since my childhood. I loved watching stuff like Disney movies when I was in my single digits, and I'd see my dad play his SNES way back then, too.
Oh that's cool, I've never heard of Xscape. That'd be cool to hear more songs from the 80s and 90s.
They're making a Kingdom Hearts 4 now? Didn't know until seeing your post. I would imagine they would have some sort of synopsis for KHUX once KH4 comes out. I don't see why they wouldn't.
Oh gosh, I remember Grunty Industries. I didn't play too much of that level, but when I first entered it via the regular entrance, I couldn't progress any further. I then got there by taking the train, and then I could actually play the level itself, lol. There's like multiple floors you'd go through, and yeah... it was pretty overwhelming. That was pretty much where I dropped the game. Lol, at least the folks at Rare knew that Canary Mary race has been pretty infamous.
Yeah, probably best to just do the system transfer by having both systems on hand. Here's the page that shows how to do the system transfer to t... I have a Mario edition Switch OLED, and because I'm huge into Mario and it has this awesome OLED screen, I don't feel comfortable giving up this beautiful special edition console, lol. When I do eventually get a Switch 2, I think I'd use my Switch OLED as a secondary console just in case.
Oh yeah finding and discovering stuff in those Zelda games can be great for sure. I've spent so much play time on both BotW and TotK, haha. I don't think I explored every little spot in those games, but I certainly explored a massive chunk of Hyrule in them. Heck, in TotK, I got the maximum amount of heart containers! That was the first Zelda game where I've done so. On Scarlet and Violet, that's good to hear. On a somewhat related note, I know that Link's Awakening and Echoes of Wisdom have had some frame rate issues. I did notice them while playing, but they didn't ruin the game for me.
Yeah. It's one reason why I like game series like Mario, Kirby, and Animal Crossing... plus they're all just fun to play and easy to go back to. And it's not just limited to games, either, I like stuff like classic Disney movies because of how happy and cheerful they can be. They're nostalgic for me, too. I remember you were into Conker's Bad Fur Day as well. Personally, from seeing some footage of the game, I'm not sure I'd like it too much.
Ah yeah I like playing as Tanooki Mario as well! The Tanooki Suit is one of my favorite power-ups from Super Mario Bros. 3, and I love his special sound effect too (the spin jump sound from Super Mario World). Likewise. I'd love to give Mario Kart World a shot sometime... I'll be sure to share my thoughts when I play it. Just a side note, while it can be good to see reviews, I feel it's important to make your own, constructive thoughts on stuff like games and movies, simply by playing or watching them for yourself.
@Sunsy Yeah, there's still some games coming out for the Switch this year and the next. I do want to get Metroid Prime 4, I'm hoping I can use my remaining game voucher towards that. Guess I got too sentimental with those thoughts. I mean, the Switch's time on the market isn't over quite yet, we've seen the Nintendo Direct that was before the Switch 2 one. That reminds me, I remember when the Wii U got discontinued four years after it released... that was pretty heartbreaking to hear. Technically, I do have Breath of the Wild since it began as a Wii U game, except I have the Switch version. That's cool you're looking forward to those two games, I've seen some footage of Sonic Racing CrossWorlds a while back. Maybe I'll try it out. I can't remember, is there gonna be characters and courses based on Sega's other games?
Nice, I've preordered a few Switch games myself last year actually, I've preordered Super Mario Party Jamboree at Best Buy and they even gave me a tote bag as a bonus. The last game I preordered was Mario & Luigi: Brothership, though I thought the game could have been better. Kind of wish I got into Splatoon earlier and played in at least one of its Splatfests, but what can you do. Pretty much same here, Christmas was the most recent time I got physical Switch games as well.

Ask if you want to be Switch friends with me, but I'd like to know you first. Thanks! ❤️
@Mariotag I didn’t know until maybe 2-3 years ago after that short squeeze that got them on the news that people actually had issues with GameStop, can’t recall all the complaints but I know some of it had to do with the employees.
I’ve never really had problems with game specs rendering titles incompatible with my phone, but I have had similar issues with a rhythm game. I’ve been playing it for almost three years now and while it was a big game when I first downloaded it, the plethora of updates it got made the game and its files increasingly bigger, including an update last September that fully revamped the UI, updated the characters in the game, and introduced new gameplay gimmicks. It’s likely because I have an old 6-year-old phone but while the game is still playable on it, I now get occasional slow-downs (or frame rate drops, which can be pretty ugly while playing), I noticed that the loading screen freezes for a few seconds before I start playing a song, and the game sometimes freezes, though it’s rare when it does so. I’m hoping that it doesn’t get to a point that the large amount of content makes it fully incompatible with my device…the game clearly isn’t intended for older 2010 devices it seems.
Yeah I did hear that Smash is also credited for bringing attention to FE in America and helping it garner American fans. It is cool when Smash convinces its players to also try some of the games that its fighters come from, which did happen with me when I played Banjo in Smash for the first time, even convinced me to get an Xbox and play most of Rare’s game library.
Yeah, I can agree that certain topics combined with Twitter could be negative, mainly ones concerning real-world topics, though gaming was a pretty negative one alongside those because of how big it is on there. Basically, it looked like that any topic that was gigantic or commonly discussed on a daily basis resulted in a lot of arguing and negativity.
It’s a strange one…yeah, some of the memes I’ve seen regarding that have been funny. For me, I don’t really mind FE characters, probably because I don’t play them too much anymore, but I used to main Lucina and Corrin, and I especially don’t mind Byleth because his/her weapon is more unique, on top of incorporating other weapons in his/her attacks. I feel like it’s maybe the presence of the echo fighters that makes people dislike how many of them are in there, given Lucina and Chrom’s movesets are near identical to other characters. Thing is, I remember Sakurai saying that Lucina in Smash 4 was originally intended to be an alternate costume fighter for Marth instead of being a separate character, but I feel like I could be getting something wrong since it’s been a while since I last read on Smash development.
I just read stuff on there for fun, but when they changed it so that you need an account to use it I just didn’t care. But I do wonder why I can still view some tweets by clicking on links on Wikipedia and other sites citing a specific tweet even despite not having an account.
Yeah, it’s only now I’m seeing more sort of negative business practiced being used and put in place. All I really have left to say about the ToS is that it could cause bad issues for those that unintentionally break it. It’s good they do want to crack down on piracy of their modern games and stuff that will actually cause issues, but deciding to apply severe punishments to those that don’t intend to do it but proceed to on accident is gonna have a ton of issues.
Ah, good! So one of your friends and you are on good terms now? That’s good to hear, I hope that things will also work out for you and that other friend who wasn’t there. It’s a good start, and I believe that things will get better.
“Woah-shi! It’s a double Yoshi explo-shi!” - Yoshi’s Woolly World ad, 2015
If you’re curious, the character in my PFP is Flaky from Happy Tree Friends.
@MarioVillager92 Yeah, I used to think I had a consistent art style, but I kept changing it a lot. It mainly comes from the fact I enjoy a lot of different art styles equally. A lot of people like to talk about what art styles they hate, but for me it’s more like I enjoy a lot of art styles but prefer some more over others. I’m kind of trying to aim for a more somewhat stylized art style with a focus on incorporating shapes and lots of color, which I did try doing last year before swapping to a different one. Yeah, when I first started drawing, I used a more 2D art style, but it was supposed to be an anime art style, that I’ll admit, looked nothing like anime until a bit later haha. I did swap to doing semi-realistic drawings about three years ago before changing my mind and doing a different style. I think what convinced me to stop doing semi-realism was that I realized I could no longer draw humans well…I tried to draw an anime character in semi-realism, and it looked horrifying lol.
Yeah, I haven’t heard all of the songs from Xscape, but they are pretty good. I’m surprised I haven’t heard a lot of them until now. They sound different than his songs from the 80s-90s, but not in a bad way.
Yeah, they announced it, I think 2-3 years ago alongside a mobile game called Missing Link but haven’t really provided any new updates besides a few semi-realistic and detailed looking screenshots maybe a month ago and announcing Missing Link was cancelled alongside that update. They do need a synopsis for it so that those that didn’t experience KHUX know the characters from that and the plot points, but I feel like KHUX would have been better off telling it’s story as a console game instead of a mobile game that can be shut down at any point and delisted.
Grunty Industries had me doing a lot of trial and error to complete it. I’m pretty sure there was this awful part where you had to hit a blue Rareware toxic waste drum and avoid hitting green drums, since if you do, it smokes the room up with toxic gas that quickly depletes your health, so you have to make a dash out the room and repeatedly turn on the fan in the room to fix it. But, the drums were all on a moving conveyor belt that got increasingly fast, and it was so repetitive. Grunty Industries is the worst level of the game, as all the mini games and objectives are annoying and repetitive to deal with, and the age of the game and some of the controls make it hard to deal with at times. Again, it’s not a bad sequel, but the large size, constant backtracking and repetition compared to the first game makes it frustrating to play sometimes. Yeah, they were aware of that, in fact, Nuts & Bolts has a lot of sardonic jokes and jabs at fans, but of course in a joking way. The opening part of the game took a jab at the N64 games and their collectathon gameplay, but also had a specific line that was along the lines of “people don’t want to collect stuff nowadays, they just wanna shoot things!” Referring to how people at the time played a lot of shooter games like Halo and Call of Duty and how popular and prominent they were compared to the collectathon platformer genre. I know that opening part bugged a lot of people as they viewed it as Rare trashing the legacy of the first two games, but I feel like that’s maybe to be expected given the series is known for making fun of itself and their characters all the time. Though, I understand how disappointed some fans were at the time, also since it took nearly a decade for a new main game to come out.
I think transferring data with both consoles in hand is definitely the best, plus you could trade in the older console when transferring to the new console is done. I can imagine how good the OLED is, you should definitely keep it when you get a Switch 2 and transfer data to it! And keeping it as a secondary console can help too.
I can’t tell you how fun it was exploring in BOTW and finding all sorts of new stuff, though I never completed the game. And congratulations on getting all the heart containers, I never was able to when playing the previous game and it’s rare for me to sometimes get all items in a game or even 100%ing it fully. I did see a few headlines for those on here, I am a bit surprised they have a few issues running on there, because I would have assumed all first-party Nintendo games would have had all their performance issues ironed out since it’s their own games, but it’s good that those issues are minor and not significant.
I see, I definitely get it, it also applies to some movies and shows I watch too. I did like Conker and I still do, but it definitely is a product of its time with some of the content and humor, and playing it all, yeah, I don’t think you’d enjoy it a lot (on top of the janky and kinda horrible gameplay) plus it ends on a pretty depressing and bad note even after all the stupidity, strangeness, and crudeness throughout the whole game. I think it’s maybe the first time I have played a game that’s intentionally stupid and proceeds to end terribly…
Yeah, I really liked Tanooki Mario a lot out of the rest, and it’s maybe the outfit and some of the added details from the Tanooki power-up that’s included that made me like playing as him a lot. I’ve seen some clips from MKW and seeing some of the techniques people have been using and it’s crazy! One clip I saw was someone playing as Luigi, and he was I think in second place, and then he gets hit by a shell but it causes him to bounce off on top of the person in first place and he lands in front and wins! I was laughing a bit when I saw it haha. It definitely looks cool and fun, and it is good to hear a lot of people are enjoying it, and I do hope you like it when you get your hands on it. Oh yeah, I agree with that a lot! I do enjoy reading and watching reviews, but I like watching/playing the stuff first instead and sometimes seeing other people’s opinions on it for fun afterward to see how they felt about it. I just enjoy seeing others perspectives on something I maybe liked or didn’t like, but it’s especially fun experiencing the game/movie/show for yourself
Today I bought an Eau De Toilette called "Luna Rossa", and later I was told that today is a Strawberry Moon day. It is a nice coincidence. Maybe I should harvest a few strawberries in the garden to make it a real harvest moon and maybe then the moon will use its magic powers to turn me into a strawberry prince. Hopefully people will not start to howl at me, when I use this Eau De Toilette.
@Pastellioli Yeah. My local Gamestop is nice in that regard.
Yup. Phones in general are like, they become obsolete quickly. You can't expect to have the same phone for some 7 years or so. (Guessing a number there)
Smash is like, Nintendo's ultimate advertising. You get to play as the characters, and see some of them. Shame I've had this feeling the games have gone downhill lately..
Yup. Real world topics have that effect...no matter where you are. Twitter in particular was egregious though. Constant of groups posting whatever they want, with Twitter itself pruning out anyone making a decent case in favor of the other side. Ultimately, things are genuinely just that bad these days, and have been for quite some time, no matter how much finger pointing ppl do.
Gaming, I'm not too sure of.
Echo fighters have more or less been in since the beginning with Luigi. It's more like ppl are concerned that the FE roster is taking up other viable slots. Since Smash 4 though, they've gotten more diverse.
There's an extension you can add to a Twitter link to make it embed. I've used this, and seen it used.
These business practices have been around a while, and Nintendo has sabotaged themselves to avoid having their games pirated before (N64 and Gamecube). I think it's a real mess. The other companies have been greedy for a while. Nintendo commands a brand ppl respect, so when they hop on, ppl finally notice. At least imo.
Yup. One of them finally got to interacting. The other? Bluesky blocked now. Almost immediately after finally finding out what had upset him after a year and a half of being kept in the dark.
Turns out, I was complaining too much. Funny. I know nobody owes me explanations or words, but it genuinely sucks that something so incredibly simple ballooned up to this extreme with no communication at all. Doubt I'll be friends with him again.
Haha, yesterday I stayed up until 23:00 just to see the strawberry moon, but I was not able to see it. Still, thanks to this experience, the scent of "Luna Rossa" reminds me of the scent of strawberries. I think it is okay to be a little weird from time to time.
I have a board game project that I still working on it.
It will use something like hexagon to play and I have test my board game once I made quite a lot of hexagon shapes.
@Mariotag Yeah, I’m also noticing more signs of age with my phone, I realize when I shut it off it takes a long time to turn on. I’m still glad it’s usable and can play newer games, but the performance is becoming slower. I noticed in videos that when people play rhythm games, they use tablets instead of phones, and gosh the performance looks way better on top of having more space to tap. Actually, when I was playing my rhythm game today, it kept slowing down when I was selecting a song, and taking a long time to load when I opened it or when I quit out of a song.
It definitely is, and I can understand why you do feel the way you do about Smash’s quality. I liked Ultimate quite a lot but it’s just now I realize it in my opinion, isn’t the greatest, but it mainly comes from a lackluster story mode, the execution of Spirits and their battles, RNG, plus the awful online play, but that’s really it. Speaking of Smash, I am wondering what they’ll do next for it, and when the next game will come out, but I don’t expect to hear anything until a few more years given Ultimate’s long development cycle.
I don’t get why some Twitter users act so rude. I found a lot of them try sounding like they’re the best, on top of being rude and snarky in an attempt to get a bunch of likes, and the way being run doesn’t help either. I came across a meme post online that had a caption that was something along the lines of “Look, this person is showing off their Switch 2 on Twitter! I wonder what the replies sa-“ and the replies to the original post were full of absolute snark and people being vile toward this person who was happy they bought a Switch 2, I’m sure nearly all the console accessories, and multiple games, including Switch 2 editions. It’s insane how angry some users online get toward others doing nothing, and I saw a comment describe Twitter as just being “a competition on who can be the snarkiest” at this point. I get people getting disappointed and frustrated with the Switch 2 being a high price alongside some of the games being pricey too, but I don’t get why they have to be so angry and vile toward people who treated themselves to one. I assume jealousy is one, but also possibly from people wanting Nintendo to drop the prices of the Switch 2, because I saw so many people wanting to boycott them after seeing the $500 price tag and $70-$80 games, but people don’t have to be so rude to others that bought the console, let alone straight up insulting them and being snarky.
Yeah, I think if maybe the FE roster had more diversity with their weapons, like maybe adding in an axe user or something, people wouldn’t be too upset, because the main criticism I see for FE characters in Smash is the fact all of them (sans Robin) all wield swords as their primary weapon, but I think certain character picks or franchises already in Smash still not having new fighters for a while is also why. I am still a bit surprised that some franchises, like Sonic, still only have a single representative in Smash.
I see, I think that extension you’re talking about is what I maybe saw used when I checked the sources for some Wikipedia articles. I think that explains why I’ve been able to view tweets sometimes.
Oh, that’s disappointing, and the reason was because you were complaining too much? That’s a very strange reason, and I’m sorry that you and that other friend aren’t on good terms anymore Really sorry that happened.
Anyone else had problems with the site yesterday? (Thursday if you're reading this on Saturday) I got a few Cloudflare errors yesterday. Not today, so I'm assuming it's fixed now.
@MarioVillager92 I'm not too worried about it since the Switch is in a different boat than the Wii U was. Switch was successful so I see it being around for some time. Cool, I have the Wii U version of the game, I haven't bothered with the Switch one. I did enjoy playing it while I waited to get my Switch. Make that three now, I tried Discounty (side note, I'm surprise there's no mention of it on Nintendo Life, it was shown during Wholesome Direct and it is coming out on Switch) during Steam's Next Fest, and liked what I played, so looking forward to it now.
Nice, it's always cool when they give out bonuses. IIRC, I saw on social media Walmart was giving out free Coca-Cola and Pringles to people who pre-ordered a Switch 2. I would actually say Christmas was the last time I got a digital game too. Bought Smurfs: Mission Vileaf for like $4. I have it on PC already, but it's nice to have it on Switch too (yes, I'm excited for the upcoming Smurfs movie too).
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
@Pastellioli Ahh. Yours slowing down? I swear, mobile devices like that really don't last.
I've had Gameboy, DS, 3DS, and they've all lasted longer. I'm still learning to cope with the smaller screen.
No clue about the next smash. I found that it had fewer significant single player modes as well. The ones it did have were generally executed poorly.
The thing about online is, you can act however in general, under the veil of anonymity, and face no offline consequences. And of course, you sometimes lose sight of who others, and yourself, even are. Too many times, I've seen someone post their age, yet been unable to correlate the number with the meaning and reality.
As for Switch 2, the price is technically $450. The bundle with Mario Kart is $500. Jealousy is one probable reason. I remember being jealous over OG switch. Another would be the concepts of "voting with your wallet", and, "enabling them". Which tbh, barely matter with Nintendo rn. They'll likely get their dues eventually, but for now, they're spending reputation as a currency.
Robin has a sword as his main too.... Yeah though. Similarities between the FE cast, plus "are you seriously adding another anime swordfighter/Mario character/Pokemon instead of representing something that needs it??"
Yeah. A year and a half trying to find out, and what he never bothered expressing was that I complained too much. All I knew was that he was silent a while, and then I "creeped him out". Expression is important! Even if it is uncomfortable...
We went from decent friends, to no communication allowed so quickly!
@Mariotag Yeah, it’s getting pretty bad. It’s a miracle some games on my phone still run, even with some small issues. I did have a few more issues with my rhythm game yesterday when playing a song. The game has an option where you can play a music video in the background simultaneously while playing a song, and depending on the song, it can be either it’s original MV, a 2DMV or 3DMV, and the game performs terribly when I use a 3DMV. Tried to play a favorite song with 3DMV on, and it kept lagging and I had to stop. Though I never use music videos at all when playing, because it’s distracting and affects game performance. It’s crazy how increasingly terrible the game’s performance is getting on my phone now, and it’s making me worried about future updates for the game potentially ruining it even more since there’s three songs I want to play that won’t be added to the English version until next year.
I’m wondering what they’ll do, though now it’s a matter of just waiting till they say anything on it. Already seeing pretty fake 4chan “leaks” for a Smash 6 when I think they won’t say anything on it for a while.
Yeah, and it’s pretty easy for some people to get away with it and say what they want freely, even if it’s awful and cruel, which definitely would explain why some people on Twitter tend to act the way they do, but it also just seems like that with some snarky responses, that they are also just saying it to see if they can get a lot of likes and go viral, because a lot of people and videos I’ve watched say that some accounts on Twitter tend to post nonsense or rude stuff for attention or engagement.
Yeah, I think it’s jealousy as a factor, given that some people couldn’t get their hands on one and had their pre-orders cancelled, but also that “vote with your wallet” thing. But, it’s crazy how many people I saw shaming others on social media for getting a Switch 2 when Nintendo announced it had sold 3.5 units a few days ago. Besides that terrible Twitter post, I saw people on other sites saying stuff like “your part of the problem if you bought one” or “your the reason the Switch 2’s price is never dropping” or something like that, but I kind of don’t expect a possible price drop to maybe happen until a while, or if the sales are consistently low, which I don’t think will be the case. I already expect the console to have passed the 3.5 million milestone already.
Whoops, made a mistake…Yeah, I think if the FE cast had less similarities then I don’t think people would be upset too much, but I kind of didn’t know people had an issue with Mario characters in Smash too? I already knew people didn’t want another Pokémon character because it has multiple of them in Smash like FE, but I rarely saw anyone complaining about Mario’s characters. There was actually a lot of people who wanted some other Mario characters in Smash, I’m pretty sure Paper Mario was one of them. I know Mario has a decent amount of representatives in Smash, but I think a lot of them are mostly unique from each other, besides Daisy and Dr. Mario being an echo fighters of Peach and Mario, and a lot of Luigi’s moves being taken from Mario.
Expression is definitely important, because I find that if there isn’t any, it can lead to misinformation, or lots of confusion, worry, and wondering about what’s going on. It must have been worrying not knowing what was going on with your friend until now, and I’m pretty sorry that it happened and you aren’t in contact with each other anymore.
I found this on the Nintendo website. These two games in the news section that are next to each other have almost the same king of lighting and enviorment vibe lol.
