Kirbyo

New Dune movie looking WACK

Benny Safdie is now officially Jack Black's son

After a long post-Silksong hiatus (and a frankly tragic attempt at Inscryption), I'm finally back to playing games! Currently trying to work my way through all the new Vampire Survivors content.

@SirLink Going off of that, I'm going to do some quick maths.
84% of Switch 2 players transitioned from Switch 1. If Switch 2 has sold 10.36 units, and assuming units pair 1:1 with users, then 10.36 * 0.84 = around 8.7024 million Switch 1 users who switched to Switch 2. Dividing by the 154 million Switch 1 users, we get 8.7024 / 154 = around 0.0565, or around a 5.65% turnover rate. Not bad all things considered.

No way they made a steampunk course. That's one of my favorite aesthetics!

@jake1421 You know, now that you mention it, I DO seem to like bullet-hell shmups. There's that one Game Builder Garage game someone made (which I wish was a full game), and Star Wasps was one of my favorite games in the UFO 50 collection (even if I wasn't good at it). Actually, I might just like bullet hells (Cuphead and JSAB are some of my personal favorites, and I'll always have fond memories of PA). Once the two games on my backlog screaming to be played are done, and I'm looking for new games, I should take that into account.

Ey! Finally! Right before my Calculus exam. DAMMIT!

21/21. Full marks! Whenever I didn't recognize a cover, I just looked at where the title would be and tried to make out a letter. Somehow it worked every time!

As someone who grew up obsessed with the Paper Mario cooking mechanic, this fits my exact niche perfectly. Will check out the kickstarter!

Nintendo has been getting into some real hot water recently, and I'm beginning to think it's JUST to spite me in particular.

Did someone say... Kirby?
gets those red laser eye things

Why isn't it today? Then I'd actually be able to watch the dire- oh it's 9/11.

@Willo567 I was just saying that the fact someone would come in and say that is very concerning and takes away from the conversation. Also I may have posted the comment only seeing yours, assuming you were at fault, and then realizing you were totally valid. Whoops! My bad. Also yeah NL plz delete that comment.

@BeetleBoyd @Willo567 Oh no, that, uh, that doesn't bode well for the reasonability of this discussion...
Personally, I'm inclined to believe that this patent is just to protect the autobattle feature from Scarlet and Violet. Not good by any means, but not a complete catastrophe. Then again, I'm no legal expert (and I highly doubt anyone in this comments section is either), so I'll wait for an actual lawyer to give his two cents (maybe a few lawyers, just to account for political biases).

I've been having fun. It's been hard, but not unmanagable.

@Careless_Anouki Thanks! Btw, finally made it through Silksong act 1, and it's been a BLAST so far!

"Silky smooth weekend vibes?"
No actually. The vibes this weekend I'd describe moreso as being "rough as all hell." But hey, college will do that to ya!
Also Silksong has been pretty fun.

Dammit the hype got me. Already played 2 hours of Silksong. It's been fun! Minus an incident involving a trap, a tired me, and around 200 now lost currency.

I think I'm the opitome of "No, I've beaten it before and I don't have the time"
I've played the game before and had a swell time. I'd LOVE to go back and play it. But college.

College is about to start, and also that Kirby DLC is coming out soon, soooo... nothing this time!

"Lore of the Swings"
I feel like that's a Lord of the Rings pun. I can't be certain, but I THINK it is.

15 minutes? That means it'll have VERY few games. Probably is only happening for one game in particular. What game? Idk lmao

In the wise words of Willy Wonka:
"You get, NOTHING!"

It seems Nintendo is finally getting their PR back in check. Good for them!

@ParrakerriRush I don't think you were joking, that WAS the best part of the whole thing. That and felt furret.

COWARDS! (jk obviously thanks for responding to my letter!)

Why does Benjamin look like he just walked out of LOTR?

Can't wait for this to become a mod

The lack of a physical option in the last question seems very... peculiar.

@VoidofLight Ahhh, I know what you're talking about. It's the file that everyone's talking about, right? The SUPER controversial one? The one that says where the storehouse containing all the english physical copies of Rhythm Heaven Megamix is?

Finally caved on Blue Prince. It's been great so far! I'm maybe... halfway done? A third? Fourth? I'm not sure. Game gets really deep. I did hear there's a nasty postgame, but I'm not there yet, so for now I'm gonna keep going and see what mysteries unfold.

Honestly? Gimme a music player and I'm set for life. Some free roam improvements would also be appreciated, but cmon, there's literally a bike that's a radio, they've GOTTA add a jukebox!

This is gonna be fun!
Who's gonna win, the big corporate lobbyists, or the underdog players? I'd place my bets on the lobbyists (money makes the world go round and whatnot), but if the gamers win, I'll be pleasantly suprised.

I kid you not, I managed to get the stupid two photo newspaper filter to work. Don't ask how.

@RiasGremory Uhhhh they were there too

I'd give it a hearty 8. Some QOL features could be added (looking at you, KAMEK), a jukebox is MANDATORY, and obviously the online needs some tinkering, but overall I think it's a great game, especially if you go in as a casual.

Figuring out I could flip the world in free roam on my own felt AMAZING! Also, I think the requirements are just playing every cup and knockout, cause I didn't place top three in every cup or top four in every knockout and still got it. So long as there's a checkmark, you're good. I don't remember how many peach medals I got, but I don't think it was that many.

You should probably also make a guide on how to unlock mirror mode, cause I just unlocked it on accident. The FIRST time I beat the special cup, nothing happened. The SECOND time I got a cutscene unlocking mirror mode, and I have NO idea what I did differently.

Hmmm, golly gee, I wonder what I may be playing this weekend. Could it be Mario Kart World? Certainly not! (It's Mario Kart World)

I know there's a lot of controversy, but I just decided to get a Switch 2 and hope for the best. Worst-case scenario: Nintendo fails, and I just play Steam games on my new laptop (the perks of going into the computer science industry).

Honestly? That's pretty clever!
@rjejr Wow, someone seems a little over-negative. Then again, I'm a little over-positive. It all balances out in the end.

@8bitKirby Oh hey! Another Kirby! Nice to meet you.
Anyways I'm just going to ignore the controversy, mostly because I already preordered the Switch 2 bundle. Besides, when it comes to worries, I have more existential concerns.

Honestly I would like to see Culex reference in another Mario game

Ohhhhh iwantitiwantitiwantitiwantitiwantitiwantit

Wow, what a power play (says in tired sarcasm)

Ok that timer is actually hilarious

The stability got so high it wrapped back around to low. A stability overflow.

Oh no, this is just going to be the Da Vinci Pokemon thing again isn't it?

@speed_loafer Yeah, with all the bad news in the gaming industry, a mind wipe would be ni-
Oh, you mean the political landscape? Oh yeah I try to ignore it as much as possible.

One day I'll get back to this game. One day...
