is Mario the Wario to Remario or does Remario have his own Rewario. but then that implies that Rewario is Wario's own Wario. this is all very puzzling

These questions are illegal. Don't think about them.

I loving hate nintendo. Their online poo poo is so loving basic and frustrating.

I have a family account set up on our SWITCH OLED. My kid wants a separate profile so he can win clothes and poo poo on wii sports. Fine. So I went to the nintendo website and logged in as myself and created a new child account from within my account. Great.

Now how the gently caress do I get this child account to appear on the switch???

I am actually reading the manual: https://en-americas-support.nintend...1a1EP:t1-q1a1-c

But on our switch when I go to Settings->Users the only options are Add User and Transfer Your User. The transfer option is useless and the Add User option only allows me to create a new user OR transfer a user from a previous switch. I've tried the transfer option but it complains that my kid's account has never been associated with a switch before so it isn't transferrable.

I'm a complete failure of a father but usually I am at least competent with this tech poo poo. Oh well nintendo has broken me.


edit: Oh you use Add User to create a new user on the switch and then link it to the child account. Clear as loving day. gently caress you nintendo.

I played the new Mario Party game last night.

For some context, I'm trying to get :smug: ~*~my wife~*~ :smug: into video games so I thought this could be a good game for that. I've never played it but I know people who have and they recommended it as an obvious choice for a lighthearted party kind of thing. We set it up so it was her and me against two CPU players set on Easy just to mess around. Started playing on Yoshi's island or whatever the level is called.

We were having a great time right up until the very end of the game. In the board game, there's a mechanic that can randomly swap all stars and coins between any two random players. Not either stars or coins, but "Player A gives all of their stars and all of their coins to Player B in exchange for all of Player B's stars and coins. Two turns before the end of the game, where my wife and I had both earned a good amount of stars and coins as I was helping her out with mini games and figuring stuff out, and we were kind of clobering the CPU characters, this happened to my wife. A CPU character landed on a special event spot where that character has to roll to determine two random characters to swap a random collection of their resources. The dice was rolled and boom. The situation was Character C landed on that spot and rolled dice such that that my wife's character had to trade all of her stars and coins (like, 3 stars and 90 coins) with CPU character D, who had played the whole game poorly and had literally 0 stars and like 3 coins... two turns before the game ended, leaving my wife's character coinless and starless, and the "Easy" CPU character sitting with tons of resources.

Can anybody explain to me how this mechanic doesn't invalidate literally the entire game?

At that stage of the game, you're literally trading your entire game's progress with somebody else. It's not even internally consistent. What is the point of even having a board game format that tracks stars and coins and whatever else at all if there's a mechanic that just randomly swaps literally every resource owned by one character with another character with literally nothing either character can do to influence it? So you spend the entire game playing well and racking up points and there's only one or two turns left in the game? Guess what? gently caress you! This other character landed on a spot so now everything you have done for the entire game goes to that other character who sucked at everything and has nothing, and there's nothing you can do about it, and you have no time to make up any of it. Have a great day!

So I'm honestly asking, why does the board game part of Mario Party exist at all if it's just chaos and nothing matters and anybody's points can go to anybody else at any time because gently caress you? I realize I'm getting more annoyed than I should but I was excited to be able to play video games with my wife, and I think this poo poo has put her off them for a good while, and I don't blame her. Why would anybody play any game with a "progress" system if out of nowhere, without warning beforehand, it can just be completely invalidated at any time with no ability to influence it?

So, yeah. Sorry for blowing up, but based on this event alone I'm saying the game sucks, is bullshit, and shouldn't be played by anybody.

I've had more than one online game of Mario Party Superstars where one of the people playing legit ragequit and disconnected because some upset or another happened.

I cannot possibly fathom how you could take Mario Party that seriously. The whole point is that anything can and usually does happen. Like, roll with the punches ffs. Embrace the chaos.
