I have heard nothing but bad things about III.

Like the port just made it unfun garbage.

No, it's just always been unfun garbage. V is basically III but better.

It's a shame they didn't remake that one.

Best Buy was also told they'd get more Gamecube adapters for Smash a week after initial release.

They actually did though. That's when I got one

8 Lucina Cruel KOs, seriously?

Lucina and Marth are actually the two best characters for Cruel Smash because of their very quick Counters. If you time your counters right, you can easily get 8 KOs.

Nintendo confirmed that the N3DS shortages in the United States are due to the West Coast port strikes (which are also affecting shipments of amiibo). Software is unaffected as it can be flown to the US more easily than hardware.

Because the west coast port is on strike and nothing's going through.

I believe they have now reached a settlement and cargo should be good to begin unloading soon.

Any goon favorites for a case of some kind?

I have this one because it's cute and I, too, am cute. Also it has two pockets - one for the 3DS XL itself, and one that can easily fit one of these game cases and a USB charge cable.

Somehow Dream Drop Distance is also an expensive game now being out of print. That game was horrible.

I just beat it and thought it was decent :shrug:

I mean it's Kingdom Hearts anime bullshit and it's not as good as Birth By Sleep but I liked it well enough

If you surgically removed Layton and his influences from PLvsAA, the game would be outstanding. As it stands, it's just really good until the ending.

Mario Kart 7 is a fairly solid handheld Mario Kart that is eclipsed by 8 in every way (but is still pretty good). It doesn't have Waluigi in it though for some reason

Mario Party: Island Tour has weird boards but pretty decent minigames

Bird princess is cool and arguably one of the best party members...when you're controlling her. The AI just has no loving clue how to use her gimmicks

Ah, everyone just has a PC designed for/built for gaming. I have an i3-2370 w/ 6 GB ram and an integrated graphics card. It's perfectly serviceable for work and a fair number of games but there's no way I can run something like Xenoblade

Wait so you've been making sweeping commentary about the failures of the Dolphin version when you're basically running it on a glorified word processor?

Goons, never change. :allears:

I'm sorry that I, like most people, don't have the time to build a nice fancy gaming machine or the money to buy one that's already made??? I just feel that for a lot of people running it in Dolphin isn't necessarily a (feasible) option.

A friend of mine also mentioned the game chugging at Agniritha on his nicer gaming machine, but I haven't experienced that firsthand

I've just started playing Fire Emblem Awakening, my first FE game.

What should I know to make things run smoothly for me?

Don't miss units. If someone has a unique portrait, they're either a boss or you need to talk to them to recruit them.

Also if you're playing on Classic don't let people die but that goes without saying

Also I guess don't rely on Frederick too much? He'll suck up experience that your other units will need more.
