i do fight game tournaments which is basically the same thing but consoles are easier to deal with also the crowds are super fun. its a mix of kids who grew up in the bronx/queens who grew up taking the train and playing at chinatown fair and lily white nerds, but it works until the smash bros players show up

Nostalgia4Butts posted:i do fight game tournaments which is basically the same thing but consoles are easier to deal with Oh, God, Smash players are like a plague wherever they show up. My buddy ran a barcade and had a fighting game night one day a week, and then a bunch of Smash players started showing up and just bitching nonstop about how they only had one copy of Smash Bros Brawl and that they wanted multiple versions of every game, and would be just gross smelly fuckers who would bother everyone else that showed up. To get them out he made Tuesday nights the night where if these guys wanted to, they could come to the bar with their own poo poo and set it up and play, but they had to pay him or he had a 3 drink minimum for them or something. Just loud, obnoxious, jerkass dudes. Total "Fox only, no items, Final Destination" guys. The worst.

I love how Sakurai has public contempt for the competitive Smash scene. For a while when they patched the games they wouldn't announce it, and wouldn't say what exactly the patches did, so they'd have to start at square 1 to figure out all the weird minutia if it again.

Bought Outer Wilds since games is going crazy over it and went in blind as suggested. Talked to some people, flew around a little bit, walked around the moon, then the sun exploded. Good times.

Yeah I can confirm all the smash player stereotypes are true. There’s a group of us here that play and thankfully we’ve narrowed down our 420 blaze it and chill crew who we include. Sad that as an adult you have to quietly exclude a handful of people. Plus we make sure everyone knows it’s absolutely not competitive and we do items and whatever levels we want Bunch of whiny needy adults who never matured after high school. This one big oaf would come around that just always smelled rancid. Act ornery and just generally insufferable to be around. One time I got pizza for us all and he quite literally hovered over it and ate most of it, not being considerate for others. I try to find the best in people but nah, smash players are largely toxic and awful. Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 19:58 on Jun 25, 2019 |

I deployed as RTO once and our barracks were a bunch of 2-man rooms built out of plywood inside of a big empty warehouse/barn, so I was able to run CAT5 to every squad room with an xbox in it and get some 16 player matches of CoD and halo going.

Smash, like many other things, is legitimately great in its own right but is ruined almost entirely by the people who play it. Find you some (mostly) normal friends who also like vidya games and just enjoy the game as-is. The minute you start taking it seriously is the minute you've gone and touched the poop.

if you have to ban characters,items, or stages then its not a tourney game also idgi about smash. they keep trying to squeeze into the fgc but they're like 10x the size of it, just go do your unwashed body odor button mashing on your own

Uhm, excuse me, but if you don't make the GameCube controller compatible with every future iteration of hardware you ever make I will never stop smearing myself with poo poo.

The collection of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask was pretty solid, too. I’ve also yet to find anything that scratches the F-Zero itch, after the GameCube version melted my brain a few times over with GX.

Nostalgia4Butts posted:gently caress the gamecube in general I’m all in this page but I gotta pump the brakes at this edginess here my dude and yeah the GameCube controller is just 10 years of muscle memory people refuse to let go of. But it’s wired so no potential for interference at tournaments or claims of “delay.” I switched to the Pro controller so I can chill on my couch

Nostalgia4Butts posted:nintendo went downhill after the snes and is only redeeming itself now with the switch The Wii was a garbage gimmick that had a handful of actually good games. The wii-u had some dope games, but only after two years. The Switch was literally a portable breath of the wild machine for a year after its release. So...I kind of agree with you. But the N64 and GameCube, come on man...

Just gonna chime in with Bloodstained is good. Especially if you liked Symphony of the Night, or Aria/Dawn of Sorrow.

Minor spoiler maybe. If you got the kickstarter/pre-order bonus thing you can fight Iga as dracula for a boss. The ability you get off him? The wine glass toss.

Fallom posted:Switch port is busted though so maybe wait on a few patches I have 100% faith they will get it working just as good as the other releases. Wouldn't recommend buying a busted port until it's fixed though, want to be able to play what you paid for. Playing a castlevania game in the shitter seems like fun though.

What was that game that would gently caress with you by pretending to turn off the gamecube or putting up a blank input screen? That $30 aafes gamecube I bought on Camp Anaconda paid off eventually when I got back to the states and had access to more than mario and disney games.

We just played a bunch of tiger woods golf on the original xbox on one tv for a while. Then we moved from jack shacks to a proper saddam era concrete building, with bays turned into 8 individual rooms by a reservist engineer unit that we coerced into giving us a squad in exchange for mechanic services to a few of their trucks and an engine replaced to knock out the job in a week. They were done in two days and just chilled the rest of the time. Then our company commo guys strung out cat5 and found a router. Halo until the sun comes up.
