People complain about DRM now but nothing's worse than needing to leaf through the manual every single time you load the game. I remember my wheel for the DOS version of Zool 2, now that's a game that would be great on switch.

The TSR AD&D goldbox RPGs made you enter specific words from journal entries and if you failed (3x in a row?) the game closed. You also got this prompt periodically when saving. Better hope you don't gently caress up your entry when saving after a tough fight.

I didn't realize until today that you could claim the Season Rewards in Diablo III at any point. You don't have to wait till the Season is over. (Left on d-pad > Y > X) Now I've got a 6-piece class set and I'm OHKing rift guardians and it's hilarious.

So uhh, I'm kind of hype. If they can pull off some of the crazy poo poo they do in the re movies but against huge dinos, how can it not be awesome?

I just got an email saying that the loot goblin amiibo I forgot I order in the beginning on November has shipped. I should probably buy Diablo 3 at some point.

When I first bought Half-Life 2 I was excited to bring all five CDs home to install it on my brand new computer just to find myself waiting like eight hours for the game files to decrypt on lovely rural dialup. At the time I would have killed for a booklet to turn to page 3 so I could type the fourth word, thus proving I owned the game.

From a couple pages back but thanks for the info. Is the fan service in labrynth all over the place or is it more like EO were you can skip those character portraits?

Hello friends. I am getting a Switch for Christmas with Smash and I'll buy the other great games as time progresses along. Main query is which controller/s should I get for Smash gaming with friends and stuff? I understand a pro controller is kind of a must and that the joycons aren't great for some things, but can I just get the cheaper wired controllers for multiplayer and have that work out fine?

I've read good things about the Hori wired controller. My local Target was selling it for $20. It won't be as good as the Pro, but...it is $20.

Switch natively supports Mayflash GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii U, PC USB and Switch, 4 Port https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RSXRLUE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_KgBgCb2CP3MMZ You have cables running to the dock, but let's you round out smash instantly. (Smash supports up to 8 drat players) also great for Mario kart Also yeah pro controller owns. Finially. Some grips go a huge huge way to making individual joycons usable.

I just played Smash for the first time and I....have no idea what I’m doing. I won some but don’t know how. I was playing spirit adventure mode. What do spirits do? Is there a quick primer somewhere?

Classic mode will let you just fight guys in a ladder and learn how to play.

If you just play smash or classic or anything ever 10 min I think of finishing a thing will have a challange show up. For me that worked out to an classic adventure run, so pretty much every run gives you a new character.

Bombadilillo posted:Yes. You unlock characters no matter what mode you play. Worth noting that WoL also unlocks a random character every 10 minutes of play, assuming you exit the mode every 10 minutes. At least I think it's 10 minutes. Never tested it, but always had someone waiting for me when I stopped playing.

One lesser discussed perk of unlocking through WoL is that you can re-challenge the fighters immediately and as many times as you want until you win. You can also use a bunch of overlevelled spirits if you want an advantage. While this doesn't do much for anyone with a bit of experience with these games, it could be nice for anyone that kinda sucks.

And gently caress you if you like non marth swordsmans. None at all there. I think it's trying to really force/encourage you to try a bunch of characters. Which upset me until I found out that drat, I like the way different types play in this game. Heavies are good. Projectiles are good. Swords always good. Everything is good. And I like it.

If it is anything like the 3ds, you can call Nintendo and they can walk you through a process soyou can re-download any digital games. Save files are gone. Not sure how that would work with Switch Online and cloud saves.

I'm fairly certain every fighter is available in that mode. Not to get too heavy into spoilers, but (Galeem fight spoilers) some of them are available in World of Darkness and after, so technically not everyone is in World of Light, but same game mode.

Didn't get mine stolen but had to catch up the GF's switch once we got it.

Which with how insanely it throws food at you there no reason to manually level anything. the auto-pick is actually really powerful, in addition to picking stuff that will give you the most rewards it will also pick the right spirit type (red, green, blue) and pick skills that will be useful for the fight. It even knows stuff that's not in the description, like it might give you "stats up after eating" if a spirit battle has a lot of food items dropping
