Adding to the gigantic update is a new higher difficulty for Soul Melter called "Soul Melter EX". It's apparently going to be "astonishingly hard" as pictured by Kirby who for once is thinking he may of made a mistake.

That satisfye grip is pretty great. I can play without destroying the big joint in my thumb now within ~20 minutes! I still have some wrist and forearm pain, but I suspect that’s more from work stuff (though playing switch certainly doesn’t help matters, even with the grip)

It sucks getting old. My entire arm and wrist goes numb from time to time.. I have a doctor appointment coming up but im pretty sure that she is just going to say my job is destroying your body.

Look on the bright side.



Switch thankfully feels comfortable to me in long sessions, especially compared to the 3DS which is painful to play for more than an hour at a time for me. I really need to get through my backlog of DS/3DS games so I could finally get rid of that uncomfortable piece of crap.

Why must it have so many great games.:smith:

After roughly 90 hours of playtime, I have finished all of the regular and mega puzzles in Picross S and S2. The mega puzzles are much better designed in S2. I never once had to blindly guess while solving those, despite doing them 1st. S wasn’t bad, but a few of the puzzles were complete crapshoots.

So ya, if you’re a picross fan, try out the S2 mega puzzles. It takes a while to adjust to the different rules, but once you do it’s a lot of fun. And figuring out the more difficult puzzles feels amazing.

I want S3 now.

Kind of hard to see as it's a scan but Bandana Dee / Dedede / Meta Knight are getting a rework in the wave 3 patch to to have more unique movesets. So yes, Bandana Dee is getting fully exclusive things now.

does World of Final Fantasy have voice acting? Can you change it? I'm uh.... asking for a friend

I'm on the fence about buying it (I know it's not amazing though) because I could really go for some turn-based RPG right now and I'm also in the mood for Final Fantasy. Also the stupid chibis are adorable. I mean, what I really want is for the FF remasters to come out but I'm guessing we won't see those in a year or two. :v:

Fighting against Grimme and my double jump is occasionally not working. it's not consistent, but happens enough that it will fail 8 or more times in the fight. I'm playing in TV mode. Anyone else experience anything like this?

Got Bendy and the Ink Machine, played it straight through, the game literally crashed after the final section of the game and the save reloads to a softlock where you can't interact with a lever to start said final section of the game

so I can't finish it and I'll have to replay the last hour and a half of the most frustrating-in-terms-of-gameplay section of the game from scratch, and hope this time it doesn't crash

thanks, dev

Warframe progression seems pretty shallow at first but after a few hours it slowly opens up in a lot of directions and it can be as grindy as you want. Looks good and the controls are ok but you feel like a way cooler flying space ninja with mouse and keyboard.

Warframe has literally the most video options I’ve ever seen in a console game. It’s like they just ported the PC video options page wholesale and it owns. Turning off motion blur and bloom and cranking up the FOV helped me a lot.

Well, I feel slightly less like a dummy now. I was just about to face Lt. Surge two nights ago and was real excited to sit down and play for a couple of hours after dinner. Apparently the last time I saved was in Veridian with four low level Pokemon, so I basically have to start completely over. I turned it off and watched TV for the rest of the night :shrug:

In previous Pokemons an autosave would be a bad idea because people want to savescum in those at various points, but in Let's Go there no need of savescumming anywhere so they should have done it.

Melee is hilariously fun with a good build.

I implore everyone to build a Kestrel (a melee weapons that is also a boomerang) and look up builds for it.

You can turn it into a rocket launcher that knocks everything over and has unlimited ammo.

Warframe is not about the most powerful builds, its about making weird combos that are fun.
Unless you are running those intense late-game raids, just use whatever makes you happy.

idk how but it seems like Warframe uses less battery than Diablo 3, which is an intensely power-hungry game whenever I play it. The optimization of this game is really nuts.

Are you playing with joycons? It might just be the usual joycon connection issue. Even after getting mine fixed they occasionally drop signal momentarily if there is anything (including a coffee table, my leg, my loving fingers) between me and the switch. I also only really noticed it when playing hollow knight because of the importance of split second timing.

It's really frustrating and basically pushed me to get a pro controller just so I could have a reliable controller for playing fast games. Which works for Nintendo I guess.
