I know, I kickstarted it lol There were a bunch of shipping delays and manufacturing things to work out including them having to fly to China. If you know anything about shipping and manufacturing right now it's 10,000 times worse at the moment. And it's sold out because they stopped making.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
I think Eastward got a patch today that fixed some of the game breaking bugs for anyone who had issues with that.

Wiimote + nunchuck was the best controller setup ever. The joycons are great too.

I wish the joycons were a touch thicker. My hands cramp after 3-4 hours which isn't horrible (I've used controllers that cramp me up after 20 minutes). Like that's a fine session time so not the end of the world. But any serous gaming and I'm taking out a pro controller or SN30pro2. Just so great to be able to put your hands wherever you want.

Big fan of nunchuck, it was my preferred controller in Mario Kart. (waggle trick was great if you bounced it on your knee)

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
The blind dogpiling on Bloomberg is just loving embarrassing and fits my running theory that the critical reasoning and reading comprehension skills of many people on this forum are outright broken, with folk more content with childish, reactionary seesawing between hardline perspectives instead of approaching outlets and reports with context and nuance based on their reporting history, the reporter, and industry status. Some of you are evidently incapable of approaching these conversations with perspectives of any discernible difference between a reputable outlet that might get some information wrong (for a multitude of plausible reasons) and some dumb forum/twitter fucker who clearly knows jack poo poo but leapfrogs off other reports while also making poo poo up for clout.

Bloomberg is a multi billion dollar enterprise historically reporting on the tech business at large, in all its forms. Its primarily market are not gaming hobbyists, internet celebrities, and dickheads obsessing over whether or not Sora is going to be added to Smash. Their primary market is business; managers, financers, strategists, planners, etc etc. People who benefit tremendously from early access to information on tech developments, products, and business pertaining to televisions, computers, audio equipment, phones, video games, and beyond. They have a lucrative history of getting multiple leak reports across multiple tech fields right because they obviously have an assorted list of genuine contacts and sources within various fields, including but not limited to production supply lines (where a lot of schematic and build information comes from). They fundamentally would not be desired and read by people of importance in these fields if they had nothing to offer, or an utterly abysmal track record of reports.

The odd cases of them being straight up inaccurate, or having wires crossed, etc etc doesn't dump them into the same pile as NintendoLeaksForReal.com, nor is it evidence that reporters have make believe contacts exactly like "The Leaker Guy" on your favourite forum. Companies coming out and denying claims does not mean the report isn't based in some degree of truth, nor that the company is actually circumnavigating and denying with clever language. Reports failing to eventuate exactly as specified doesn't mean the entire report was made up, with a multitude of factors (inaccuracies, miscommunications, delays, etc) potentially impacting results.

It's just so loving tiring. It's like all the dog piling on Grubb because he, err, got something wrong a few times I guess? Never mind the enormous volume of poo poo he got right, and continues to get right, over and over and over and over. Never mind the context of him being a paid, working journalist in a notoriously leaky industry. No, none of these things matter. He's a liar! He just lies! It's all lies for clout he knows nothing that's a fact NOTHING AT ALL! EVERYTHING HE SAYS IS A LIE! LIES LIES LIES JUST LIKE BLOOMBERG NOTHING BUT LIES! THEY ARE LIARS!
