Re: Splatoon 2 Has A Nasty Surprise In Store For Rage Quitters

Skid

My router is upstairs and I usually can't connect when docked, with stress on usually. And when I can connect I mostly have one bar sometimes two.
That said I never once got kicked from a splatfest match. I only failed to connect twice at most in the three hours I got to play.
Needless to say I'm a little relieved, but I'm still thinking about getting my wifi extender to work(I updated wifi name and password but the extender didn't update) and wiring up directly to that, but only if that is any better. For all I know it could be a worse solution.

Re: WWE 2K18 is Confirmed for Nintendo Switch

I haven't played are wrestling game since the 64. Does this series have a create a character and is it any good? If so I might have to buy this game and revive my old character Mighty Cow, some that guy was invincible and I could never make another character that could challenge him.

Ahhh, the good ol' days.

Re: Poll: Do You Think Call Of Duty: WWII Will Come To Switch, And Would You Want It If It Did?

@ThanosReXXX To be fair the question is "will it come", not "should it come". I understand your point and agree, it should come to the Switch.

I mean, both the wii and wii u got iterations. I just get this feeling it is not coming this time around.

First of all, did they get a dev kit early enough to make a quality port or to release along side the other versions. If it doesn't release along side then I don't think most would wait for the switch version just for a portable COD, and by time it did come out I feel the user base on switch would be too small take make it worth playing online. Hopefully I'm wrong though.

Also, no P90? No buy! ;P

Re: Video: It Looks Like The Controversial Fire Hopping Trick Has Been Removed From Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

@Nintendoforlife It is called an "exploit"
For example: Wave dashing, you make your character slide across the ground for better positioning. It is the equivalent to sliding on ice.
Now try this, while wearing socks jump forward on a tile or hard wood floor. What happens? You slide forward.
In melee you have the ability to air dodge in any direction which is also a fast movement. So if you air dodge into the ground with a character with less friction they should slide. Stopping in their tracks would make no sense.
Now if you jump and air dodge down and into the angle quick enough the character doesn't look like they jump and they just slide in one direction.
So were those physics supposed to be there? Yes
Did the developers expect players to use said physics to create wave dashing? No
Therefore it is meant to be in the game but not meant to be used in that fashion which in turn means it is an "exploit", not a "glitch".

I think everyone is overreacting to this on both sides. This isn't a glitch, but it is an exploit much like wave dashing was in melee. It is just part of the physics that we have learned to bend.
Was it meant to be like this? No
Is it cheating? Not in my opinion
Its not like this was snaking. Fire hopping maybe helped me average one place higher online, but the fact that items are part of the game practically negate this.
Again, my opinion.

Re: Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition Lands On 11th May

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I feel like everyone is misunderstanding this comment. I'm finding it humorous either way!

This better have an expanded world compared to WiiU or I will skip. Though portable minecraft with better controls is very enticing.

Re: Talking Point: The DLC Expansion Pass for Zelda: Breath of the Wild is Both Surprising and Inevitable

Skid

@abbyhitter This is basically why I'm okay with it. I would pay $15 alone for the original story and new dungeon and $5 to have the cave of trials and new hard mode be part of dlc in order to have the game not be delayed or cut the cave or mode entirely.

I'm not so sure about the additional map feature. What would that even be?

I just better not "need" the useful items for anything. I'll wait to get this until I beat the game.

Re: Official Hori Nintendo Switch Micro SD Cards Set a Handy Benchmark

Skid

Honestly I think these are for the same people that thought the Wii U was an add on to the Wii. Most consumers might not understand they can buy any of these other SD card options, so Nintendo says "Here, you people can buy these memory cards for our system(ignore the price please)."
