I'm tired of Melee, because its been the same thing for the past few years, but smash 4 should be at least treated better by the FGC. melee is always the main event for some reason, and I just don't get why it still is.

besides, melee doesn't even have duck hunt dog.

Smash 4 is Sunday tho?

I think Melee is finally dying. It had less entrants than Smash 4 this year at CEO, and top 8 wasn't even on the last day.

And good riddance I say, I was able to actually walk the hallways freely this year, and not have to tiptoe around countless pop-up Melee setups with a dozen nerds sitting on the floor crowded around each one.

I wouldn't mind melee going away if PM wasn't killed off by Nintendo, since smash 4 plays so differently than the earlier iterations that people prefer one or the other

So I've decided I want a neon blue or neon red joycon set. A dude on a train had the neon switch and it was instant envy for me because it looks so much better in person than it did on any promo shot I've seen.

Lol yeeeep. Fell in love instantly, i pity grey naysayers Cuz neon makes for a lovely game-toy

Nintendo's cultivating a reputation as 'the company that thinks of children first' even where it's not required by law or where it's inconvenient for consumers (then they release underage titty-based fighter games anyway but whatever)

I guess it's more about image than legally absolving themselves from responsibility?

Just installed a screen protector. It's guaranteed for life which is cool, but I apparently have to wait 36 hours before docking or "heavy gameplay". I'm assuming it has something to do with letting the adhesive cure. I don't know what to do when I get home now.

Switch plus travel update:

Status = Switch good

I've travelled on a 6 hour flight and had my switch the entire time. It was awesome as hell. Zelda was the star of the flight, the only part that sucked was doing a shrine that required motion controls but you can just disconnect the right joy con and it works okay.

Mario + Rabbids is so amazingly perfect for long flights, it kept me occupied for hours.

Sonic Mania is really fun. Flights do not make blue balls any easier to do. :(


I have another 6 hour flight today and am planning on more Rabbids and also probably some shovel knight.

My hotel room tv had a HDMI connection so bringing my dock was a great idea. Played splatoon2 on hotel Wi-Fi and finally got to profreshional in salmon run. :dance:

I unfortunately didn't attend any rooftop bbqs so my review of those will have to wait.

It's a very powerful tool in passing the time at airports/on a plane.

Just got a switch over the weekend. I picked up Mario Kart (even though I already had it for wii u) and Rabbids.

The games are fun, and re-buying MK8 is worth it for all the DLC and being able to play portable (!!). But, the best part is the hardware! This thing is so cool, I kind of wonder how they can sell it for $300 when a tablet from Microsoft is $1000 that probably has less GPU horsepower. The controller is neat too--it's really comfortable and versatile, and even using half of it is much better than I thought it would be.

I'm regretting buying third party games for my xbox already--sonic mania was great but if I had waited I could play it portable!

Anyways just wanted to get that out. I'm hype for Mario!!

Oh one weird thing though, does this thing not have any apps? It seems perfect for a web browser/netflix but the home screen is surprisingly bare. That's not why I bought it but is that stuff coming?

Greetings and welcome to the fun club. Idk when apps are coming but I hope some day in the near future

What are people's thoughts on Mario x Rabbids? It sounds intriguing, mostly because of the aesthetic around it. However it feels like the luster wears off for people pretty quickly, and that the back half of the game is frustrating due to the limitations in the mechanics. Am I right in this?

*laugh track plays weakly in background*

The cool thing about long rear end flights nowadays is that everyone has an outlet near their seat and the chair in front of you is also a tablet holder so you can detach the joycons and play super leisurely. The Switch makes airplane rides pretty rad now

good question! i know licensing deals are different overseas and I have no idea if Always Sunny is staying on there .

if I want a roguelite action game from the eshop what should I grab? already played the poo poo out of Binding of Isaac (I'll probably rebuy Enter The Gungeon when it comes out though because I haven't played any of the new content and I would love to play it in handheld mode) -- Gonner and Tumbleseed both look cool but I don't really know anything about either. Open to other suggestions too if they exist

I love Boi so I bought gonner and I found it pretty boring, not a lot of content either
