What about that GameSir Cyclone 2 you guys reviewed? That looked like a great deal

@JohnnyMind Hey I've been lurking on this site for years, and just recently created an account...
I've always seen your comments under a lot of posts, and just wanted to tell you that you're one of my favourite commenters. You're always so positive and your comments are always a breath of fresh air amongst all the rage and negativity under a lot of controversial posts
Thanks for commenting mate, wish you well

@LeJuiceCup The words "Hardware Teardown" are literally in the title

@Olliemar28 half the people here don't have the slightest idea of what this all means and just write "oh no nintendo is spying on us ew" or "ah yes George Orwell I'll pretend I know what 1984 is about"... Please be more clear about what legal stuff means in your articles about sensitive topics, or people are just gonna go paranoid

I can't wait for them to look at me... Uhh... Playing video games I guess
At least we won't get people showing their **** during Uno matches again

Seriously, people talking abt "oh no we are in a dystopian reality" and "ah yes Orwell was right" need to remember that this is nothing new and no one is forcing you to buy a camera
Also, Nintendo taking measures against misconduct and whatnot is quite far from what Orwell wrote about
The Uno pics thing actually happened

Guys keep in mind the rewind feature is available in free roam and solo races ONLY
No rewind in multiplayer, be it online or offline

(@Gaymer90 @MeloMan no funny shenanigans for you sadly lmao)

Holy crap there's Johnny Bravo too hahahaha

@Rykdrew no sorry I didn't explain myself
I didn't suggest putting a table in front of your sofa to play on your 98" samsung tv
I was thinking about the possibility of docking the switch on the same table as your pc, so you can connect it to your monitor
I'm not saying you should play like this all the time, the switch is a console better played on a sofa after all

I have the same concerns as you about the mouse mode, what I meant was that if there's a game I really like playing in mouse mode I could just connect my switch to my pc monitor
That's just me though, and if you don't share my views that's okay, I'm not here to argue

If someone from Hori/Genki/PowerA/H&M is reading: dm me i have a wonderful idea for pants/shorts with an integrated mouse tray

@8bit-Man I honestly have a lot of hope for the mouse mode, it could mean a better way to play TPSs/FPSs, and maybe it could allow some games that have been relegated to pc (because they couldn't work without a mouse) to come to console

@Rykdrew You're gonna use your pc mouse on a table, I don't think docking a switch 2 on a table sounds so bad
Also I'm pretty sure some 3rd party manufacturers will make a more mouse-oriented joycon in the future, so that it will be more ergonomical

@RupeeClock Donkey Kong pectorals edition mouse pad

@N00BiSH are you suggesting I place a mousepad on my legs or
Not that it sounds that outlandish as an idea, but I'm actually seriously considering something more akin to a breakfast tray placed on my legs lmao
Somehow the idea is so absurd that it makes me wanna try it

Hori breakfast gaming table when

This looks like a well done remaster (unlike Glover...)! Let's hope they gave this game the attention it needed

What bothers me the most is that after 6 years it still looks like a flash game from newgrounds

@Samalik soooo basically... Lords of Shadow?

3D building requires a lot of tools from the game and knowledge from the player, I think it would be too complicated

Building something along the lines of Sunshine, SM64, Galaxy ecc. seems unfeasible... but maybe if the 3d aspect is more like Super Mario 3D land, which is way simpler, it could be done. I'm imagining basically a very linear level, like a 2d level, with a few blocks placeable in the z-axis but not enough that it breaks the linearity, and a fixed camera (basically the first minute in the first level of Mario 3D Land)

@Smigit It was actually possible to upload effectively impossible levels through complicated methods (example seen here https://youtu.be/9D5i3K5-QxM?si=_PtOiBsEG1lAHEf4)
As far as I know, Team 0% is handling this by excluding clearly hacked levels from the challenge. Also, levels that didn't get any star were already deleted by Nintendo so this reduces the number of impossible levels to a minimum

Regarding TAS, if you're not familiar to how it works I'll try my best to explain it simply but I'm sure there are people that could explain way better than me
TAS runs use savestates, which means you can load any previous frame to perfect inputs, that's how TASs manage frame-perfect inputs consistently
Another tool used is RNG manipulation, so anything that depends from RNG (such as spawns, projectiles, timings, drops etc) can be controlled to create the "perfect storm" in a run
The catch is, TASs are possible through a software running on a computer and not on a console (even if hacked, far as I know) so it should be impossible to have TAS levels on Super Mario Maker's official servers

Macros are basically carefully timed inputs, and you can mod a controller to do just that (modded controller rapid-fire in Halo is one of the most notable instances), but you still have no control over RNG, no savestates, and it takes quite a bit of time to create a frame-perfect run on a modded controller. You also have to account for:
-Absolutely monstrously skilled players that could rival a computer (and most of them are in Team 0%)
-The complications that come with modding a controller while keeping it compatible with WiiU

I probably left behind some infos but I'm still learning a lot about these arguments, also English is not my first lang so it's difficult to explain some things properly
Youtube has a lot of great video essays about TAS, macros in videogames and Mario Maker exploits if you're interested

@Pod @JohnnyMind @Boo_Boy52 The legitimacy of the level has been taken into question many times before, TheRileyC published a video recently discussing this if you're interested

tl;dr if you don't want to watch the video: the creator could have used a modded gamepad for the clear and there is (NOT DEFINITIVE) evidence that supports the claim that the clear is not legitimate

Looks interesting, especially if it delves in its underlying creepiness
Sadly the video is set to private for now but from the screenshots it looks like the game has good potential

@Woderwick Don't mind him mate, he's just the type of person that doesn't like humour

@Ryu_Niiyama I know mate, mine was just a joke on the typo

@Ryu_Niiyama to be fair it's past tense, so it should be "shat down"

The "Least Developed Part Of The League Of Legends IP" is League of Legends itself.
I wonder if someday they'll manage to fix something in their spaghetti code without creating 5 other bugs

That "customize your bike" bit was pretty underwhelming, imma be honest... But it's still in early stages of development from what I can tell, so I hope they add more bikes and more stages to show off tricks, I do love myself a cartoony extreme sports game after all

@mereel same

Holy crap this is just so sad

@Lightsiyd Once you get to the garden you have to move to the "communication" tab, select "tea party" and watch the 2 or 3 events tagged as "required", then a new mission will open
