A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:Edit: In case it's not clear, everything an Amiibo does happens on the game end. BOTW is just looking at a serial number that says what kind of figure it is and matching it against a list. what if this functionality was activated using a game card or an eshop download

I thought we hated Capcom for this kind of bullshit.

It'd be inserting f2p-style microtransaction bullshit into Zelda and people would hate it. The fact that you do get a lovely plastic toy for your kid to play with is the only thing that makes it acceptable. Kids love cheap plastic poo poo, as baffling as that is to many adults.

Do all the people going in about buying a VC game the third time know that the Wii U shop charged all of $1 to upgrade a game from the Wii library? It's still Nintendo but it's not full price the next go around. I was remembering the time my surface 3 was trying to tether to the Internet and use a Bluetooth mouse, it was not doable. The mouse was skipping like crazy anytime the Internet was loading a page. I wonder if that's why there's no Bluetooth audio option on the switch.

I wish there was a way to mass transfer my Miis from Wii U to Switch. It was so easy to go from Wii to Wii U but doing it one Mii at a time is too tedious.

C-SPAN Caller posted:Also power saves works on amiibo you already own too, so there is nothing really wrong with doing that, since you already gave nintendo the money. You could also technically put the data onto an NFC card, which is cool since the switch is a portable system and you don't have to lug around amiibos if you go on vacation or something.

Years ago, I would've killed for a portable Metal Slug 3. That dream's now a reality, and that game still loving rules. I think it's a little understated how great it is we are getting neo geo titles right out the gate on a portable system. Lame as poo poo that kof98 doesn't have online play though, that's a total miss but I guess these emulated titles don't have the budget. Also, neo turf masters.

yeah they claim that the joycon issue has already been addressed at the source. i'm not sure about other issues like dead pixels, but i would expect those to be within acceptable levels for electronics. i don't know anyone personally who has had that happen yet. you're never going to get a 0% chance of encountering problems but i wouldn't worry about it too much.

Cool. That's good to know. Yeah, the dead pixel thing is unfortunate but it seems like it's just a thing that happens. Did Nintendo ever come out with a statement saying how many pixels would be enough to get a change of Switch? I think industry standard is usually around 5 or so, right?

gently caress amiibo. If you're going to put a bunch of poo poo locked behind these awful toys then at least make it purchasable for people who don't want them. I'd pay for all of the extra armors and weapons in BOTW if that were an option but instead I had to spoof all of it.

If Nintendo's going to leave a fuckton of money on the table by underproducing $15 trinkets and leaving them unobtainable except through scalpers and ridiculous markups I don't know why it matters tbh they may not be robin hood but while you can make the argument of "not buying music on itunes affects the livelihood of the artists", the only people being bitten by this are scalpers and i'm not gonna lose any sleep over that
