Re: Nintendo Direct To Air Tomorrow, 23rd September

Arcata

Its the first time I can actually watch it live cuz usually its at times like 11 am or 1 pm for me when Im at work so I can usually never watch it live and my friends in different area codes text me or message me on discord when something gets announced like HEY blank was announced and I was like AAAA I WANTED TO SEE IT LIVE lol this timing works out perfect for me I hope they stick to this schedule in the future.

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Switch OLED Or Valve Steam Deck?

Arcata

I have my normal switch docked (when im home I always play on tv (my monitor specifically) but I am on the go alot so when I play portable I have my switch lite so I dont need an oled to me the normal switch is too big for me because I like my switch lite being able to put into my pocket and not stick out, but I definitely will be getting the steam deck even if its a bit clunky, because I would absolutely love to play Team Fortress 2 while im on the toilet lol

Re: Memory Pak: When Mario Became A Pro Wrestler And Ruled At It

Arcata

Paper Mario the Thousand Year door is such a important game of my life. I would come home from School and play it when I was overwhelmed wirh social anxiety. It felt like a journey with friends but without the anxiety, the lovable partners who all had their own personality all the lore of the areas in the game the boss fights like doopliss. I never beat it when I was younger but I still got pretty deep into it, Then years pass when I first moved out on my own when I was 18 (im 23 now) I moved into my own apartment and I didint have that much furniture even but I was like I cant wait to play a game in my own apartment, all alone it felt so nice and liberating, I decided to play Paper Mario ttyd and beat it. What a great and cozy experience that was. I honestly felt a bit sad when it ended because the ending is so nice and the journey was just amazing.

Beating Paper Mario ttyd at the same time as being in my own place as an adult really marked the beginning of adulthood for me.

beating a game I could never beat when I was younger and in my own place idk what the feeling was but it was like someone put cozy, love, nostalgia, mystery, and independence in a blender and The overwhelming feeling in my stomach and my chest I got from it felt so amazing and I have never felt it since. But whenever I see paper mario ttyd referenced or see it somewhere I instantly feel a tiny bit of that emotion that I had gotten when I beat it in my new apartment. Such an important game to me.

Re: Talking Point: Everyone Has A Bad Game They Love, So What's Yours?

Arcata

Its not really a bad game but people always forget about it and call it mediocre. Wario World on gamecube. I have a problem. I play that game to completion like 6 times a year atleast lol. I feel like once every couple of months I want to blast through it. Its my favorite soundtrack of any game or movie the music is just crazy! and its a fun beat em up to play through and I love the enemy design! I know its short but its always had a place in my heart. I actually love it so much I created the Wario World sub reddit last year because I saw there was not one created yet lol. I think it has like 38 members now and tbh its probably the whole population that ever played Wario World so. Yea Im happy with those numbers lmfao.

Re: Fitness Boxing 2 Surpasses 700,000 Sales, New Update Arrives Next Week

Arcata

I actually prefer this to ring fit adventure mainly due to the fact that I have a ruptured disc in my back so my bones rub together and it makes any movement where I have to bend hurt alot if its continuous and ring fit has alot more motions like that. Fitness boxing has doging down with an uppercut but thats actually easy to cheat on I just kinda bend my knees with a straight back and then uppercut. So yea I like this more than ring fit but its due to a special case

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog Voice Actor Says It Was His Decision To Call It A Day

Arcata

I don't buy it because right after he "left" all the other sonic universe voice actors were fired besides Eggman. Every time in the past when Sega wants to "renew" sonic for a new era they let go all the voice actors at once besides Eggman. Just like they did with the sonic adventure staff when sonic x came out. That's one heck of a coincidence That he was the only one that "quit" When everyone else was fired lol

Re: Sega Denies It Has Anything To Do With Crazy Taxi Clone Taxi Chaos

Arcata

Oh boohoo sega. Maybe release crazy taxi on current hardware and people would not make clones of it. Jesus I hate when companies do this *****. Like Nintendo "Hey you cant pirate kirbys air ride and emulate it on pc!" Ok fine no big deal give me a way to purchase the game on switch so I can make sure you make a profit from it. Nintendo " -_-

Re: Review: Gal*Gun Returns - A Mechanically Basic Yawn-Fest

Arcata

HAHA, what a ***** game... What? no, it's not in my shopping cart.. what No no what are you talking about I'm not downloading it... What? No, I cancelled my subscription to porn hub pro because I am becoming a good Christian man I'm trying to stop sinning... No no stop assuming things. Ok bye! Leave me alone turn off the lights and lock my door on the way out. Thanks!

Re: Video: Here's How Mario Kart Could Look Running On A 4K Console

Arcata

Nintendo will probably get 4k support in like 2300 while everyone else will have 2000k by then let's be real lmfao. I know the switch is a hybrid but I use it only in docked mode and I have a 4k screen and it does suck to see how pretty my pc and Xbox series x and ps4 pro look running in 4k and then my switch is in 1080 p like its the year 2010 lol. I understand its a hybrid but for me the switch is just a home console. I have had it since 2017 on launch and I don't think its ever been out of the dock lol. But yea 1080p in 2021 is gross not gonna lie. At least give us 2k 2k is acceptable in my opinion. Nintendo should just release a 4k capable dock for the switch for like $100 that would fix everything.

Re: Review: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury - A Superb Mario Adventure With A Bowser Bonus

Arcata

I had around 500 hours in Super Mario 3d world on Wii U so I'm definitely getting this day one. I think Super Mario 3d world is one of the most underrated Mario games. I love all the 3d Mario games and this one is great as well. Yes its more linear levels but it has SO MANY DAMN LEVELS and the music is just INCREDIBLE and on Wii U it just felt so good to play and control ( as mario anyways) its a 10/10 game for me and now that I can have it on the go, and Bowser's fury which looks amazing. I understand some people not caring about this but this is such a monumental release for me I just cant wait!

Re: Random: Gabe Newell Says Shigeru Miyamoto's Games Made Him A Better Developer

Arcata

@Trajan I am pretty sure he has directed all the mainline mario games up to Galaxy 2. I dont think he directed odyssey but he over saw it in a lesser role but I could be wrong. I think he became less involved during the ending of the Wii U era and the early switch Era. However I know he was in Canada assisting the development of Luigis Mansion 3 to so maybe he is still pretty active.
