I know Mario Party is joycon only, but is it single joycon per? Or does each person need a pair?

One bullet. One gun. Six Chambers. These are my friends.
This thread was right about the Pro Controller. The size, weight, analog sticks, and d-pad couldn't feel more comfortable.

My only gripe is the lack of analog triggers, but that's more of a system-wide decision.

Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

I got an email about this, my sister was using my old Wii for Netflix (with my account) for quite some time. I'm not sure whether she still is or not, I should probably check!

According to the plot summation, the army people fall through a dimensional portal into the Monster Hunter world. And eventually run out of bullets for their army guns so they have to use Monster Hunter weapons

So we still might get Milla Jovovich in Kirin armor swinging a Great Sword around

What's local coop like on D3? Can you use single joycons?

It's pretty slow and clunky at first, especially if you've played the PC version, but it's fantastic once you get a hang of the menus and all that. Only one player can have their inventory/skills/shop menu up at a time so everyone else just has to wait. There's menu-less controls to do some of that but they take some extra learning. Also pretty confusing at first is that there is still "instanced" loot, each item that drops has a player number next to it so regardless of who picks the item up, it goes into that pre-assigned player's inventory. Oh and every player has to have their own Switch profile, and each profile behaves like a separate account (so everyone has to upgrade their own crafting levels independently for example), and if you want to play online co-op every account needs to have the online subscription, so just be aware of that.

The button layouts for the menus with a single joycon are really stupid. Like just checking and equipping items is annoying, the button input to actually equip an item is click+hold the analog stick then hit the up button. Aside from that though, a single joycon works perfectly fine for actually playing the game, you do have to use motion controls to dodge but it worked 100% of the time when I tried it so can't really complain.

The screen is very busy in general in co-op as you might expect, we found turning off player names and life bars help a lot. Once you get rolling and everyone's gotten used to their controls, it all works great.

There's something weird going on because half of people say this and another half of people including myself think they look amazing. Even from people who don't care about Pokemon I'm seeing them on both sides

Honestly what could've they done? I kinda like the stylized "realism". It's clearly fake, but the cartoonish style lets you more easily accept it. If they went hyper-realistic I think it would've been very unsettling. We accept the beasts in Jungle Book for example because we know what that should look like.

Honestly, why they didn't just go the anime route like Pokemon is beyond me; they already have a series.

makes sense to me, it's kinda on this weird edge of the uncanny valley so it'll hit some people more than others

some shots look totally fine to me but others give me a real yikes feel. at the very least it's more visually interesting than i was expecting, which could get my butt in the theater by the time it's out

There's actually almost slight precedent going by really old fan theory. I don't think they'll follow it, but one long term idea is that the game is actually post-apocalypse and the monsters were biological weapons at one point in history long forgotten but are now just the ecosystem. That's why you're always finding ruins, and the best tools to fight the monsters are monster-part weapons.

while the animation is lovely and Pikachu is quite charming.. I really hope that the movie won’t be overly dominated with the first 151 pokemon. The game was incredible in that aspect, with so many different mons, but so far the trailer is filled with gen 1

Most people are only nostalgic for the originals. Everybody tried to catch all of them, and after the second game the idea of catching all of them vs. just the ones you like became prohibitive. For example, I haven't played since Ruby and I guarantee you there are more Pokemon I've never seen than those I have. Seeing Mr. Mime gave me little nostalgia pangs that I wouldn't have had from seeing... I dunno, the one that looks like a keychain

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

Are there any news about Sega Ages Phantasy Star? I've seen websites claiming it comes out in the US and Europe in November 2018, but also one claiming it comes out in the US/Japan on 31st October and in the EU "to be announced"

Does this mean the EU won't get this game?

I gave my wife a switch with stardew in June and she didn't play any other game on it until October, and that was only because she wanted to see what this "Monster Hunter" thing I was obsessing about was. She's now addicted to MHGU.
