Ugh all of the ones with gyro that actually work seem to be expensive. The only cheap one is the one that looks identical to the official pro controller, but apparently it has buttons that just randomly fail.

@Toy_Link I don't know why people think he's in Smash? That info would be under NDA...

@DarthNocturnal True, but has any company ever spoiled a third party character that way in the past? I don't recall any of them have Capcom/Sega/Squeenix/Microsoft hint at the date. I'd assume the date of the reveal would be covered in an NDA anyways, if it's written properly.

I'm confident that whoever the 5th fighter is will release today.

@Heavyarms55 @BruceCM sorry for taking so long to reply. Sincerely hope that it's the Gmail settings because my tablet is fairly new. A Samsung Galaxy Tab A, to be precise. I'll check out and see if that's the issue.

Undergoing games:
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

@Diddy64 Well either way, if it's a setting issue, you should be able to change the setting. Absolute worst case scenario - you'd have to go to your provider and change something that way. Assuming your tablet is 4G, if you are on WiFi then no worries.

User creations sure seem to push the limits of hardware. I came across those "Refreshing special" courses in Mario Maker 2 and the Switch just can't cope with it, the framerate drops so much.

Turns out that same company (8bitdo) make a usb adapter that allows you to use a PS4 controller on the Switch. The gyro even works. So I went with that instead! Far cheaper given that I already have a PS4 controller.

@Dezzy I have that as well, works great. Glad you found a solution!

@Dezzy Own that as well. It also works for controllers from other systems, like the Wii U (I sometimes use it to play my Wii U Pro Controller on the Switch).

So,

Metro Redux was just announced for Switch. Both games on cart.

Bioshock Collection rated for Switch with multiple retailer listings.

Saints Row 4 rated for Switch with retailer listings.

Tropico 6 rated for Switch with listings.

Who needs Directs anyways, ammirite?

At this point, I’m thinking that Nintendo knew Byleth would be controversial in the Smash fan base (FE character), so they decided to have the announcement trailer attached to the presentation instead of having a trailer attached to TGA or a ND and get those events a massive influx of dislikes from Smash fanboys.

I haven’t seen the full presentation yet, but from the bits I’ve seen he looks pretty neat.

@Toy_Link I thought it was a bit odd to have this reveal in a standalone direct actually. Having the context of a "smash reveal made the trailer a lot less impactful - it was clear within seconds that it would be a Three Houses character in Smash.

In any other context they could have tricked us into thinking it was other Three Houses news...

At least 2'8".

JaxonH

I like the fact Three Houses is getting representation. It deserves it.

That said, I can appreciate the sentiment of "too much FE" and I think Rex from Xenoblade 2 would have been more deserving given only 1 Xenoblade character to date. And even with Byleth, I think Edelgard, Dimitri and Claude echoes would have been rad. Though I'm not sure how their move sets would have matched up.

Oh well. I'll take it as a win. I love Three Houses so it's all good.

Might be worth taking into account that PS4 controllers have pretty w@nky battery life.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.

Yeah I think the Direct is February. So many things have been announced this week that would've normally been saved for the Direct if it was happening.

@gcunit

I do use it for the PS4! My battery seems fine. Not as longlife as other controllers but still good enough. Mine lasts probably 10-15 hours on a full charge.

@DannyBoi Seems like it. God this is giving me 2018 flashbacks
