Is there a secret to playing zelda in handheld mode comfortably? I was really excited about playing handheld but am really struggling with the joycons. Especially on the right side. Everything feels out of place and i have to do a claw grip to get everything to work. Already switched jump/sprint controls. Maybe my baby sensitive hands are just spoiled by PS4/Xbone/Pro controllers but it's been really uncomfortable. I think it would be fine for other games but it just feels like an awkward stretch.

Never bothered me at all, and I come from playing Xbone/PS4.

The pro controller is so much better than using the joycons. It's a must.

Why? I love the joycons; being able to do whatever with my hands is great.

I have big hands so it was really annoying using the tiny joycons with the nearly microscopic buttons. Also, I mostly play Xbox, so the pro controller being almost exactly the same size felt good. It felt like going from a cheap 3rd party controller to a real one.

Every interaction I have had with Uplay was a pain in the rear end. I don't care about getting a new color shoes for my video game character, so I'd rather not have to deal with Uplay's bullshit.

Using chewing tobacco is referred to as dipping my friend.

I supposed it could be used to refer to loving as well.

Does Mario x Rabbids have ridiculous poo poo like "whoops you just missed two 90% shots in a row and now your team is gonna get hosed up thanks for playing"

There's only 3 tiers of % chance to hit. 0%, 50%, and 100%. So the worst that can happen is you get unlucky and miss a few 50% shots in a row.

There are some characters I didn't use at all because I couldn't afford up-to-date weapons for all of them so I just settled with the team I liked (both Luigis). Now that I finished the game and have lots of gold I might check them out.

Huh? The game showers you in gold. I've always bought the best weapon for every single character, the moment they were available, and I think I have like 15,000 gold right now at the beginning of world 4.

Speaking of towers, the Arrakat tower and the one in water surrounded by lightning wizards can both eat a bag of dicks. Holy poo poo. I think I was under-leveled for them but I pushed through anyway with judicious use of the ice rune and slamming through my arrow supply. I'm not even sure how you're supposed to kill the helicopter ganon machines.

You can just ignore enemies like this while you're under powered. You CAN kill them, but more often than not it's not worth the effort.

Golf Story

I'm at Lurker Valley. I've rescued the baby turtles and made friends with the big turtle. Completed the kiddie course as well as whatever side quests I could find. Where do I find a shovel? And how do I find/return the idol? I've searched everywhere and can't figure it out. Help!

Are you hitting Y again and changing the contact point of the ball (red dot) somewhere else other than the middle? You can get extra loft that way which would make the wind have greater effect, or top it to keep it lower to the ground.

You have to hit X to affect the contact point, no?
