If you hate the one good Nopon, don't play the other Xenoblades.

Also if I remember to later, I'll add "DO NOT USE GOOGLE AUTHENTICATOR" in the OP.

I'm gonna be traveling a lot in the next few weeks. I want something that is distracting/entertaining on a plane, but not a full story I need to commit to.

Does anyone have strong feelings about : Civilization VI, Ashen, Gorogoa, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3?

Gorogoa is pretty cool, but it won’t take you long to complete. I would be happy to gift you a copy of Civilization VI, as I just don’t think it’s for me. If you’re interested, just send me a PM. A couple other titles worth considering are Picross S or Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, both are really clicking for me at the moment for what it’s worth.

I've given up on getting mad on SNES games on the online thing, it's 2022 and if you want to play all those SNES/GBA games you can easily get one of 50 different emulator machines, even off of Amazon

I do think that Data East and Jaleco having practically all of of their extremely mid library on the system is funny though lol

NSO is useful for playing old games with someone far away who can't use a computer conveniently. Using it for that and as a pseudo streaming platform makes it worth ten bucks a year.

My best friend is one of the most computer illiterate people I know, so I appreciate more and more games added to SNES/NESflix. I'm all for these being officially released, good or bad.

Data East was a good company with a lot of good games like Burger Time, Magical Drop, Boogie Wings and Karnov. They also published Karate Champ, which laid the foundation for the fighting game genre. It's a drat shame they aren't as appreciated just because their games weren't as popular as Capcom or Konami's

I hope they add the NES Burger Time to Switch online, it's pretty different from the Arcade version that was released.

If I get my Nintendo account back, assuming the Switch/dock has the serial number in a readable state, the absolute first loving thing I'm going to do after changing my email on it is turn off 2FA. I wouldn't be in this situation if I hadn't had it on.

I don't know that there's anything inherently wrong with Google Authenticator. It basically turns your phone into an RSA token and yeah, if you lose your phone you're screwed. The problem with is probably more fundamental in that people nowadays expect cloud backups to protect them against lost (or upgraded) phones. I'm sure Authy is also great, but cloud backups of your TOTP seeds (even if encrypted) is strictly a weaker security model.

Personally I think any service that takes your money should support SMS-based 2FA since if you lose your phone you can recover your SMS service with an appropriate level of effort.

SMS-based 2FA is generally discouraged these days as it's easier for Crash Override and the gang to do a SIM swap or something similar with data from a data breach and start intercepting your SMS messages. It happened to the owner or Twitter and his account was taken over.

And of course there are some people who are already accusing Nintendo of releasing an unfinished game in the comments.

In news not related to Mario Strikers, Nintendo is fixing the KIrby 64 glitch

It's possible I haven't played it in a long time. I should play the Arcade version some more I hated it with the Pro Controller D Pad but now I've got the SNES controllers (and this is coming from someone who has logged way too much time on the Intellivision version.)

I do like that Riki has to join the party due to being in constant debt apparently. Insanely relatable to my recent meltdown and they clearly researched the millennial demographic when crafting this character's backstory

If he's talking about Poppi I don't remember any sex but I do remember a horrible mini game that was linked to the character's level ups/growths which was equally disturbing but from like a "wow this sucks rear end" pov

Harrow

Poppi's minigame was very annoying, not least because Poppi is actually really loving good when powered up so there's a strong incentive to suffer through it

I still liked XBC2 a lot though. I don't even hate the gacha. Sometimes it's fun to pull the slot machine when there's no actual stakes.

I figured he was talking about Poppi, and I'll take your word that the it was pretty gross.

I'm still gonna probably get Xenoblade 3 since it doesn't seem to have stuff like that in it

I remember hearing this song when Pyra/Mythra were released for Smash and was like "Oh man Yuzo Koshiro rules and this track is incredible," meanwhile people who'd actually played Xenoblade were like "God no the horrific memories."

My opinion is that XBC2 is both Cringe and Fun

A good litmus test is how you feel when you see the character designs. If your response is "this is gross and/or this makes me mad" then you will probably have a bad time. If your response is "lmao" then you will probably have a good time.

Ironically I didn't even as much cringe at the designs as the lack of consistency. They clearly had very few limits on the art direction between designers.

Also my wife walked in when Jin was onscreen and immediately called out Testsuya Nomura.
