Give me large-screened Montana, please! As for the worst, besides the pile in the northeast that are too small to deal with, Nevada looks the most likely to squirt from your hands with the angles. Then again, with Michigan in two pieces, how many parts would Hawaii be made of, and how soon would the 5 year old lose all of them?
@Stouticus And yet, Nookazon. Folks put up items marked "Make An Offer". People who play without cheats and dupes put up as high an offer as they can. A duplicator simply dupes enough to outbid them.
Any cheats and duplication skew the market and should be eliminated as soon as possible.
It is possible to put in opposite directional inputs by pressing multiple buttons. This is a no-no. If a controller allows inputs that are not available on stock controllers, it will be declared illegal by any local tournament holders I know, and should be illegal worldwide.
Kunio really should be a DLC fighter. If anyone picks him, items should automatically be turned back on. Also, they'd have to get every voice actor back in to record an extra line for each character: "BARF!"
Yeah, they still use the IMPROVED animation style. Characters are expressive. You get all sorts of poses and body language. Before Sun and Moon, everything was done with stock poses. Take a screenshot, it would look beautiful. Watch it in motion, and it was lifeless. Now, it's the opposite, and I'll take bad screenshots over bad animation.
And this is why you play with items on and stages with hazards. Smash is a PARTY GAME, not a competitive fighter, and was never meant to be taken that seriously.
When you first boot up the game, items are ON.
Last weekend, the official Nintendo tournament had items ON.
This is why I'd love for Nintendo to start doing game achievements... with the entire achievement interface done in Animal Crossing. You could decorate your house with trophies earned in games, and launch games FROM the Animal Crossing interface...
Waluigi probably WILL be in it, just with an odd unlock. Probably something like you have to be playing one player, have Waluigi come up as an assist trophy for an enemy, and you do enough damage to KO him... then he throws a fit, calls everybody cheaters, KOs who you're supposed to be fighting, and you have your unlock battle then and there.
Funny, while that line was being sung, the background instruments were playing 25m from Donkey Kong. I was almost too busy noticing that to hear the barrel jump points jingle.
Unless it's a remixed version, that art doesn't go to number 4 in the series - Cham Cham, the green hairdryer girl, only appears in 2 and 6, and in the PS version of 5.
One feature I'd love to see would be the ability to hold the pad up and down for some very unwieldy 3DS gameplay in 2D - somehow, I don't see that happening.
The Switch is going to need a killer day 1 library to get a spot in my place... I have too many games on retro Nintendo systems, plus the Wii/WiiU and 3DS to justify a "switchover" early in the cycle.
I've about given up on StreetPass, as misinformation still runs rampant. No, having it on won't drain your battery, give away your personal information, brick your system, take away your puzzle pieces, let hackers steal your data, or cause lag in the games you're playing. All excuses I hear regularly when I pass by someone playing, and ask the person why I didn't just get a StreetPass from them.
I still remember the origins comic that introduced Dr. Kintobor and his experiments that turned Sonic blue, and turned him into Robotnik. Nice to see that his real name really is Eggman, though.
The only question remaining is, where is the walrus?
1) Twitch functionality added to both WiiU and 3DS, 2) Cross-platform finally added, allowing virtual console games to be played on both systems, and 3) The Vitality Sensor finally being released, and a mandatory firmware update makes you HAVE to use it, and if your vitals go out of the safe range at any moment, you are forced to take a 30 minute break.
Heh. I haven't bothered with the dub since the original dub, where it was "Hercule", Master Roshi read blank magazines and drank foamy mugs of water, and nobody died because building were empty and they jumped out of helicopters before they exploded.
When it comes to if these games will be worthy of spending my time on, I'm not holding my breath. Miitomo only has my attention for the Platinum points, Pokémon Shuffle became worthless to play once folks started using jailbroken/rooted phones to play, and Pokémon Go! isn't looking that exciting.
There's a chance that they're putting a lot of work into this, and that's why the E3 showing this year is practically nonexistent.
That said, if they're free to start, I'll give them a shot.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Think The "Switch Pro" Will Actually Be Called?
Super Nintendo Switch HD, or Super Nintendo Switch 4K. Gotta make the video upgrade clear, and SUPER instead of NEW would be clearer.
Nintendo? Being clear? They're more likely to call it Switch U.
Re: Best Miitopia Miis - Access Keys For Zelda, Mario, Sonic And More
I have yet to sit down with the demo... yet, just about every type of Mii has been made already.
The only thing I'm not seeing is anime Vtubers; if someone did a Nyanners or an Ironmouse, now THAT would be impressive.

Re: Goku (Ultra Instinct) Is Joining Dragon Ball FighterZ As A DLC Character
Eh, he will be easy to beat. Just keep running away, blocking, and dodging, and eventually he'll just collapse from the strain on his body.
