@PikminMarioKirby Yes, I think you are correct. Makes sense to get all the smaller 3rd party stuff announced now, and even some of the bigger 3rd party stuff that will be launched for Switch 1. Then they can dedicate more time on the next full direct to showing off and explaining the Switch 2, new Nintendo games, and the big AAA publisher Switch 2 games.
@ChakraStomps That is a convenient option. Unfortunately YouTube is still harvesting and selling your data with this method. If I am paying for a service, I don't want stuff like that going on.
I went the AdGuard route, and I just donate to my favorite content creators. They make more money this way. I don't use the app, just a locked down browser, so everything I do isn't sucked up and fed to an algorithm that's only goal is to keep me locked into the platform for as many hours a day as possible.
I can't wait! The first movie is one we have watched a few times over at home, as we do with the 90s first installment as well. I take everything as it is with Mortal Kombat, fun cheese. The games themselves reset the timelines and plots so frequently that I don't mind that the movies don't follow them exactly, because that is kind of impossible. The new movie is like its own universe, which you could probably say about some of the games in the series too. The modern games are more silly than even the old games, even just considering the core games (not including all the fun extras and licensed characters) plot and dialog and characters, it's over the top.
That is what makes the series amazing. You just sit down and have fun with monsters, magic, and martial arts. It all feels like an 80s movie for kids, like Goonies or Gremlins or Big Trouble in Little China.
Anyone know if these have better dpads than the NES version? The NES version has the same issue as the Pro Controller and some of 8bitdo's controllers, where diagonal inputs are output when pushing cardinal directions. There is a fix where you can open them up and put tape over part of the contact, but then that leads to you having to press the dpad harder to activate.
