I love that the story behind the human fighters in Arms is just "some people have springy arms, who cares."

Arms stretch, so what

I think it's a terrible missed opportunity that the :rolldice: minigame to get new ARMS isn't called the ARMory.

It should really be called the ARMS Dealer imo.

They probably don't want the arms to be associated with weapons

You mean aside from the actual title of the game with the dual-meaning of arms as both limbs and weapons?

So Disgaea?

Which was the second Switch game I bought since both it and Zelda are dual language and all the stores here in Japan had both in stock. Best game in the series if you skip through all the story crap and just get to work trying to break the game with overpowered combinations.

I'm going to be at a vacation with a bunch of friends during the second batch of TESTPUNCHes (best name) and I'm hoping against hope it'll support local multiplayer so we can try that even though I know the answer is probably no.

All originally stems from the Greatness of the Sega Saturn.

The Switch is therefore the Sega Saturn 3 using my own Anidav gaming timeline

Two-player is an option in the Testpunch menu, so you probably can?

Because all fucking hell is going to break loose

Last night some old buddies came in town and we met at a bar to BS and drink for awhile. The bar had an old pacman machine which lead to the subject of video games coming up in. One of them mentioned hearing the new Nintendo was cool, but they hadn't seen it. I had mine in the car as I bring it to work for lunch break sometimes, so they wanted me to go grab it. I set it up on the bar with Mario Kart and a half drunken battle mode tourney broke out. The crazy thing is other people in the bar came over to play, including the bartender. It was the most bizarre loving thing, but great.

Most glass protectors use lovely glue that can bubble up / be visible when there's a lot of heat applied to it. (Dock mode generates more heat). Sometimes they'll peel up and become unstuck.

Supposedly you can let the glue cure more before docking it but I dunno if that actually helps or not.

I did something similar at work yesterday -- buncha coworkers who were aware of the Switch but never saw one in the wild. Naturally we paired off for MK8 championships and I've sold another half dozen people on the Switch.

I have had zero issues with my screen I put it on before putting it in a carrying case for a 45 minute long drive and then played in handheld for about an hour with some friends before DnD because why not have half the people show up early for some Mario Kart.

I did mess up the install on first placement and had to remove the protector right after putting it on and 1 of the corners is lifted slightly, but it has been like that since I put it on and hasn't gotten any worse in the 3 weeks it's been on. You don't even notice it while playing, if I cared enough about it I'd get a new protector though I kind of like it since it will make it easy to remove the protector if it gets scratched and needs to be replaced.

That is an issue with the non glass screen protectors. The glue is lovely and the whole thing just falls off if you put it in the dock. There were people thinking that the extra thickness of the glass protector was causing issues when placed in the dock.
