here’s how you can get on nintendo life:

step 1 - set your twitter account to private
step 2 - type out individual tweets for every possibility you can think of
step 3 - wait for a direct
step 4 - delete every tweet that didn’t predict the next direct accurately
step 5 - use a sockpuppet or friend to post the remaining tweets on popular discord servers
step 6 - you get thousands of followers and journalists writing about your “leak.” well done

Re: Poll: Have You Ever Had Problems With Nintendo Hardware?

gamering

My Wii stopped reading discs after 8 years and my Switch joycons and pro controller have some drift, though I fixed both.

Playstation hardware has historically been worse for me. Three out of four of my PS3 controllers have at least one button that doesn’t work and all struggle to charge, my first PS3 broke after five years and my Vita just stopped working after two and a half years. PS1/2/P had no issues and PS4 seems sturdy.

Re: Poll: Have Your Joy-Con Been Drifting?

my joycons have actually been more reliable than my pro controller, the pro controller left stick is loose, makes sounds that don’t sound healthy and often sticks in a direction when i remove my finger.

for comparison, i had my joycons for 15 months while i’ve had my pro controller for 7

Re: Soapbox: Why Sword And Shield's Pokémon Purge Will Benefit Everyone

gamering

literally every damn piece of data and the models are there.
LGPE has data for every single pokemon and item in its data and they reuse the models made by creatures inc for the 3ds games anyways.
this is just being done to sell more mediocre games to make sure the second versions do better, as usum only sold half of what sm did.
they could sell a game that runs at 240p and struggles to run at 30fps, with a barebones main game and nonexistant postgame, and y’all would still consider it a 9/10 at lea- oh wait:

Re: Two Brand New Fire Emblem Warriors Characters Get Revealed, As Well As Marth

gamering

It was confirmed that the game will only have characters from Shadow Dragon with as much (and less) dialogue as Denning from FE7 and the anime tropes referred to as "characters" from FE13/14. Not even Gaiden/Echoes is included.

I was actually going to buy this despite hating the extremely repetitive gameplay of the Warriors series if it AT LEAST had Ike, but no. The worst part about this is easily the reasoning. "To avoid having too many sword users." Hyrule Warriors series allowed you to choose different weapons, yes? Why not allow, let's say Sigurd, to choose a between lance or a sword? It doesn't even have to be every main lord - just include non-sword users such as Hector, Ephraim and Micaiah, as well as some of the more popular sword users like Ike, Roy and Lyn - all of which use a sword differently. Put Sigurd on his horse to represent Genealogy, too. Those are just a few examples of a gameplay diverse cast, and they're just protagonists. They could include a magic horseback user such as Cecilia from FE6 or Reinhardt from FE5, or armoured characters such as the Black Knight.

But no, screw you, you can play as our oversexualized pandering tropes such as Tharja and Camilla, and characters you don't even try to care about such as Virion.

Rant over.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Voting Event Crowns Its Champions

@NIN10DOXD Um, no he isn't. How long ago has it been since you last played Smash 4?
When he was released in June 2015 everyone thought he was better for a few months but then his faults became more apparent and some people realised Marth was better. Then in February, Marth got some serious buffs to range, damage and frame data and now he's got some of the best results in the game, up there with Diddy and Cloud.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Voting Event Crowns Its Champions

The first spots are fine - Ike is the most well written character in the series and Lyn is okay.

Roy and Lucina are very disappointing though. At least Lucina winning is better than Camilla/Tharja winning because of their outfits and pandering personalities. Roy should not have won over Hector - Roy is boring and a horrible lord who people only like because he existed as a crappy version of Marth who couldn't get back on the stage in Melee.
