I got the "neon yellow" (chartreuse) Joy Cons today to test some stuff for work (my rails are all loose, so I need a fresh pair) and I got Smash because it's Smash Wednesday.

I am bad at Smash and World of Light is cool.

Gaming culture from just a decade ago is so loving cringy and embarrassing. Of course it still is but in different ways.

You go back and look at old stuff like that review, or even old stuff by people who left the game industry now because it's too toxic and it's like, yeah Adam it sure is weird so many gamers grew up to still be toxic shits when they grew up watching you do skits like these.

Holy cow I didn't even get past the intro. That's wretched. I never once watched X-Play because I had what I thought was an irrational hatred of Sessler. I can see that it was actually very rational.

I'm just glad we don't have to worry about any more Labo for the moment. People were harping on it not doing well way too much last year.

Edit: ^^^^Okay so there's more Labo coming. At least I can finally live out my dream and pretend I have a giant trunk.

Phone screens are twice the resolution of a Nintendo Switch.

I know this is just a little toy for kids but this is going to be a painful "VR" experience for anyone who uses it.

Skateboard games too! All _____boards games are now illegal. It's a shame because I'd kill for a Skate 4 or a THPS 5.

I've been saying for a while that the Inklings and Octolings would be the perfect mascots for Nintendo to make a skating game. It's not as weird as Nintendo making a multiplayer shooter.

It might be interesting depending on what you can do/what the interface looks like

Normally I'd say I trust Nintendo of all devs to know what they're doing with UI/UX concerns like that, but VR is new to them afaik, so

question mark ?????????????

Yeah, this going to be tolerable at best. Given that you need to hold the headset against your eyes though, it should be okay for short bursts.

What's interesting is that it's a base set and two expansions instead of one big kit.

Quest 64 just might be the most :effort: video game title ever, at least if you don't count Atari 2600 stuff which at least had the excuse of being released a million years ago.

THQ: "OK, we've got this Japanese game called Eltale or something and they want us to call it Holy Magic Century here in the US. Nobody's gonna buy something with a stupid name like that, we need something more descriptive like Adventure... no wait that's taken, how about Quest? We also need to make it clear this is on the N64 so people won't be confused, so let's add 64 to the end."

It's the most :effort: game ever too, from my memory you just kind of walk through a bunch of mostly linear areas doing nothing but random encounters and then the game's over

I'm guessing that the lenses are expensive enough that the base set alone will be average Labo price

The only smart choice for Virtua Boy games was the 3DS, and that's pretty much dead now aside from Persona Q2 turning off the lights in June.
