I own maybe 8 amiibo. Half are Animal Crossing. Two of them are Isabelle. My roommate thinks I want to gently caress her. It's like Isabelle is sweet & kind shih tsu. I do not want to have sex with the cartoon anthropomorphic dog. if we're laying it all out on the table in this here nintendo thread, I'd most def go on friendly platonic dates with her though.

True but I was hoping for more since I would like to play a platformer not named Mario that was really really good. This seems to fall below some indie platformers despite its pedigree.

I don't really see a lot of highly-rated 3D indie platformers out there, so I'm not sure what you're comparing it to.

Not to mention what reviews are basically saying is, "It's a Rare platformer", which sounds like it's living up to it's pedigree, no?

Nintendo Switch: Don't talk to me if you wouldn't gently caress an amiibo.

Shaped like a friend

I have a Isabelle amiibo where she's waving and looking happy. My mother stopped by a couple months ago and handed me the other one. I asked her why she felt the need to buy it and she just said that it was a cute dog and I collected the smash series so v:shobon:v

"Jay, you don't want the cute dog???" was not something I was expecting that evening.

Unrelated but have a lot of people encountered a bugged battery reading? Friend of mine said his switch is charging overnight but constantly says 84% left. When it's down to like 1% it can still go for over a over and a half and it's kinda news to me.

Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

This week on the eShop, both regions are getting the latest ACA NeoGeo game, Alpha Mission II. Lego City Undercover is being released on Friday. Graceful Explosion Machine is a pretty anticipated Nindie, although there's not much word on it yet.

In PAL-land, there's a demo for Just Dance 2017 going up on the eShop.

In Japan, there's a demo on the eShop for Minna de WaiWai! Spelunker, which is a platformer based on Spelunker. It supports up to 4-player co-op (either local or online). The demo is in Japanese only but it seems like a game which is pretty playable regardless.

Here's a trailer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zes66QiDWrg

The full game is being released on 20th April. No news on a PAL or NA release yet.

Next week, the ACA NeoGeo game is Samurai Shodown IV.

I like how the Aussie eShop has Graceful Explosion Machine as a 6/4 release date and it's almost 9pm here, but we have to wait until the US wakes up for it to actually launch because ~regions~ :allears:

You should only need to wait until 3pm CEST (90ish minutes from now) because that's when the shop updates in EU.

The Just Dance 2017 demo on the WiiU just had a Justin Bieber song so I'd guess it's the same on Switch.

I can't even bring myself to try the Just Dance demo alone in my own living room. I've never danced once in my life, excluding years of DDR because that's like the antithesis of dancing.

that's just what hd stuff has trended towards, super small text/ui elements. i get it, but it's not very good for people with eyesight issues, or smaller hdtv's for that matter. it'd be nice if there were size options.

Zelda and Binding of Isaac work fine for me in tabletop mode but Lego City Undercover's text and other elements are too small to play comfortably. Handheld and TV mode work fine, though.

Well actually in TV mode it's still kinda too small but that's my fault for sitting ~10 feet away from my 42" HDTV.

My wife, a Social Studies teacher, covered Amiibos in some of her Government and Economics classes back when they first came out, and the economics behind them etc. She then asked me if I was going to buy any. "No" was my response. That christmas she bought me Kirby , and last year she bought me Wolf Link. Our younger dog has since murdered Kirby gruesomely. That's my amiibo story.

Also holy poo poo lol at the video in the eShop for Vroom in the Night Sky.

I loving love the Switch.

I wanted to play Zelda, so picked up the pro controller, hit the button and two seconds later the Switch fired up Zelda right where I left it and even switched my TV over to it. I know some have said that maybe that's a glitch with Samsung TV's, but I like it. I went from zero to Zelda in 3 loving seconds. No system boot up. No choosing Zelda from a menu. No game boot up loading screen. No selecting your save file.

I want to play Zelda and three seconds and one button push later I'm playing Zelda.

The future of gaming is Nintendo.
