Smash is competitive only though, theres no day driving equivalent. Even if you and your friends dont know how to leave first gear youre still racing.

This is a rather insane definition. Smash is not inherently competitive.

Hell nothing is.

I guess maybe you are missing the point on purpose?


90% of the techniques and terminology that PRO ELITE players use are unintelligible gibberish to 90% of players of the game. That's the entire point.

If you watch pro players play and casuals play, it doesn't even look like they are playing the same game.



This isn't a knock on anyone on either side, just a dead obvious observation.

I'm too stupid to change the control scheme in smash ultimate, ama

seriously: is this a bug? I change the control scheme, but it never applies to the game, only to the test mode when you define the controls. what am I missing???

Last game control changes were tied to your name profile in the game, are you using your name for each thing you're doing?

If I buy smash in physical and play it on my switch, can I later just give that physical copy to someone else?

I'm not into smash myself but I'm the Switch Owner. The resident smash fan is planning on getting a switch of his own eventually. Having him buy the game to play on my switch feels weird and so does not getting it even though he wants it. If I can just get it "for the house" then give it to him if he gets one, that'd be ideal.

Just don't register it to your console to get the "free" Piranha Plant character; that you wouldn't be able to transfer over.

Unless he's not going to have a Switch by the end of January, or whenever that offer expires. In which case, register away.

You probably want to apply any system updates and also install any games you plan to purchase digitally. Nintendo's servers are slow on a regular day, who knows what will happen with Nintendo's servers on Christmas.

If you've purchased any physical games you might want to put the game card in and download any updates for those too. You'll have to open the shrink wrap for that but your kid probably won't care about that at.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:

Does anyone know if you can use Paypal for paying for stuff through the eShop? Or is it strictly credit card based?
You can purchase eShop gift cards on eBay and other places that take Paypal. eBay regularly runs a $50 GC for $45 deal too.

I don't see the appeal to playing Smash. It just seems needlessly boring and tedious unless you're playing with at least 3 friends of somewhat similar skill level. I liked it when I was 12, but it's never been good on its own.

Friendship ended with Smash, now Diablo is best Nintendo friend.

This was my opinion for the last release but this time online hopefully is great and I plan on cranking the difficulty so it's not as boring.

I waited years for someone to make a sequel to one of my favorite Nintendo 64 games, Space Station Silicon Valley.
Ten minutes into playing Mario Odyssey, I realized someone finally had.

Now if we could just get a new Rocket: Robot On Wheels...
