Nintendo is publishing it, so they're probably paying for its development so Wolverine will be a DLC character in Smash is what I'm getting at.

I fell into the Smash trap, started the adventure mode and enjoyed some easy but fun button-mashing fights (I haven't played Smash Bros. in 15 years), took a turn left after unlocking Mario or whatever, fought through three or four more interesting fights (i liked the "smash 4 warios at once" one), saw a chest on the map and promptly rain right into the brickwall in front of it.
I've now been wiping to Olimar for upwards of an hour and there's no sign of progress. He seemingly at random can just belt out incredible smash attacks hitting me for 20%+ damage, and smashing me off the area without recourse anytime at 25% total damage. There's that helpful timer in the upper right corner too to let me know that half of my fights routinely end in sub-20 seconds, even after i stopped falling off the platform on my own.

what the gently caress is this poo poo, why can he power-smash me off the stage in nothing but literally three hits total while constantly eating himself back to 0% damage

If you haven't, go flip through the Help menu. There's lots of little, non-obvious things you can do that aren't really taught outside of there.

M:UA 3, if it's like Spider-Man on PS4, will be a partnership between Nintendo, Team Ninja, and Marvel. So whatever Marvel okays, will be in the game, they'll also okay some game-only stuff like costumes or something. Nintendo will probably allow their personal characters in if Marvel allows it (like maybe no Mario but Link and Samus..which were supposed to be in M:UA 1 anyway at one point).

According to all Insomniac has said, they had to ask Marvel for the okay on decisions every step of the way. Marvel is trying to do the whole quality games thing since people are sick of their mobile crap. This won't be better than Spider-Man simply because there's way too many characters to focus on. But it WILL be better than M:UA 1 and 2. Simply because Nintendo and Marvel care more than Activision. Vicarious and Ravensoft cared...but Activision just wanted to milk things.

I was watching the biggest smash streamer fight against inklings for an hour, he literally said "this is a bug right? This isn't what they intended." Definitely what i was worried about. I know it's harder, but side scrolling adventure mode would've made it way more palatable.

Maybe one day they'll drop smash run in.

Sorry, guy.
Really liking Smash (this is my first Smash) but I have like, less than zero idea what is even going on. Like, none.

Playing WoL and was at the one near the roundabout where the chest is and was fighting a princess with a Fatal Frame spirit in a spooky house. The CPU helper comes out and takes pictures and I try to dodge but it seems like my health is just permanently-falling or whatever. Brick wall there.

Wake up with the Kin-OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?!
I think you're supposed to find and equip the right spirits in those situations. If you're just blindly smashing against a brick wall without thinking about your gear, that's more on you than it is on the game imo

I think, anyways. I'm only a few areas in myself. Does the auto equip suggest particularly useful or relevant spirits for those "bullshit" fights? Was the really big streamer stepping back to think about the battle conditions and ways to mitigate the disadvantage?

I don't think it's a coincidence that Katamari is back so soon after the term BDE was coined. The King of All Cosmos has returned, now that we have a a way to describe him.

Got Wolfenstein on the black Friday sale. Really enjoyed it and kinda amazed that it ran as well as it did on the switch. Currently wrapping up endgame content. It really scratched an itch for me. I like the lite stealth elements, or the ability to go all out and shoot and blow everything up. Are there any games remotely similar on the switch? Im guessing not really.

I like collecting them. Using them, not quite as much, especially since the load times are just a few seconds longer than I'd like. What I do miss is the blurbs from the trophies. It was fun learning those little factoids, but I can see how cutting back on writing would've helped them a lot.

What bugs me about the World of Light, is that it reminds me of Mario Tennis's story mode. It's a weird world design that Nintendo just seems to be doing over and over again.

I love that the main theme is as good as it is, because it's been stuck in my head all day and will be for the near future.

I dont think the switch supports wiimotes so your option there might be one of the adapters that has the wiimote port on it like the 8bitdo gbros adapter

It's weird how the Switch will handle SO MANY different types of controllers, even ones not even made by Nintendo, and yet, no Wiimote support. :psyduck:

joycons pretty much do everything a wiimote does but a bit smaller, and the wiimote itself isn't really a good controller.

Yeah! Cashed in my Nintendo bucks and got Into the Breach, Celeste and Doom for 39.99 Canadian. Great deal.

Although I’ve only played 3 rounds it seems to be equal part puzzle game, almost more puzzle than tactics per se, but I’m enjoying it a lot.

I played Smash on N64 and loved battling my friends after school. Didn't play it on GC. Was waiting for it to come out on Wii and just couldn't get into it when it did. When it came out for Wii U I was excited and pumped to play but just couldn't get into it. Told myself I wouldn't buy this one but with all the hype I wound up purchasing it. I hope I like it, I really do. I want to love Smash Bros.

And yeah, with them not doing any kind of 2019 announcements at all last night, they will for sure need to do a January Direct to shine some light on stuff. There are currently a lot of title on announcements for 2019 but with the exception of Yoshi and Fire Emblem, nothing has really been shown off much. I really hope Animal Crossing is a mid year release at the latest. That will be a really big one for them and with a new Pokemon slated to most likely anchor the November spot, AC could really hold the fort earlier in the year.

What am I doing wrong with my 8Bitdo N30 Pro? I tried to sync it to the system and that didn't work. I then tried to do a firmware update for the first time, the usb update button is grayed out and I can't get it to work. (the control is blinking and I pushed L/R/start) I can't even get the control to stop blinking.
