Carried over from the previous thread...

I know that if you were to purchase the AC DLC, everyone gets to use it.

Does that also work if I subscribe to NSO+ (for lack of a better abbreviation), get it that way, and someone else on my Switch doesn't have the NSO expansion pack?

The weird situation is that my wife apparently had gotten a basic family account last year without realizing it, and had a dummy account underneath it. I have one spot available on my family plan, but the only way she can come over to mine is if she removes that dummy account from her plan.

So she did, and it takes 30 days for it to fully go through (in the event that you aver wanted to undo the removal). Once the 30 days are up, I'll put her on my family plan, but until then, will she be able to play the DLC?

Also, shamelessly stolen from the Mario Golf discord (maintained by bushisms.txt)

I need to actually go and look and see what this is at some point. I love the Pikmin games but I've been done with mobile stuff for a while now. If anything might get me back in, it's Pikmin.

Go back to the fishing hole later, and all the fish will be bigger. Don't think you're done with it, just as a kid.

There's something weird with MK64, always has been. It has something to do with how far back the camera is from your kart, though zooming out doesn't change it.

It's really hard to explain, but it's as if there's an invisible line coming straight out the back of your kart and when you drift, say, to the left, that line almost pulls you OVER to the left first, and vice versa for the right.

Also put Ogre battle on the snes and Ogre battle 64 on the 64 on my loving switch, nintendo you goddamn cowards

Until then I am freebasing Dungeon Encounters and the Advance Castlevania collection and Dragons roar age of yoko taro cards

I believe all of those are either developed or published by EA, so... good luck :smith:

I absolutely love General Chaos, and Mutant League Football.

I'm a sucker for Christmas movies AND I unironically like The Wizard a lot so I'm pretty sure I'm right there with ya.

I cringed a bit at first while watching the trailer during the family dinner table scene but I realized this is the same level of cringe that I feel when I'm at the family Christmas party and one of my cousins comes to try and talk to me and the only topic I can hold a conversation on is games, so in that respect it seems the movie is on the right track.

Yeah, I'm also a huge actual fan of the Wizard and A Christmas Story, so it's probably why this appeals to me.

I'm getting back into Animal Crossing in a huge way, and one of the things that I appreciate about it is just how insanely customizable it all is. I remember when I started playing, I was sitting at a table in my house, with custom album art put up as posters, listening to a few of my KK songs on my stereo, while I designed my Nook phone case to resemble a ghost trap from Ghostbusters.

My wife makes clothing, designs many areas of the island, and she and I try to design our rooms around a theme each. I have a cafe in my basement, and I loved making it.

Alright goons, I've got two mostly broken 8bitdo controllers (SNES30, and an SF30). Got the replacement sticks and rubber button mats from 8bitdo themselves, and finally got the proper precision screwdriver set from Princess Auto.

Tonight, I'm going to try and fully restore them. The only possible wrench in the plans is that the charging port for the SF30 is kind of hosed. Here's hoping I can somehow fix that. I'll report back.

I got a 8bitdo Pro2, but I find it less comfortable then my Switch Pro, but it's hard to articulate how/why, it feels subtly smaller or something, or maybe it's just the stick placement or the shoulder design? I don't even have big hands.

At this point, I'm glad I haven't played with a pro controller, because I can't imagine the 8bitdo Pro + not feeling comfortable as hell.

Holy incontinent making GBS threads jesus christ is the water temple bad.

Like, I recalled from when I first played it that there was some tedious finagling here and there but WOW, my memory must have been covering up some severe (video game) trauma.

What the fuuuuuuuuuck is this bullshit?

In the granddaddy list of all temples, you have:

1. Forest Temple
2. Goldeneye temple
3. Temple level from Spelunky
...
...
...
2704. Water Temple

How hard is it to make something water based that doesn't involve changing the goddamned water level and/or requiring my goddamned iron boots every 30 loving seconds? Fighting my evil self was a joy compared to playing the most hosed up version of "Float or Sink: You're an rear end in a top hat and Everything Sucks" edition.

The 3DS remake turns the Iron Boots from a piece of equipment that you have to pause and menu to equip or unequip into an item you use one of your buttons to take on or off, and that change alone makes the Water Temple like 80% less annoying.

I'm assuming you still have the need to change the water levels, ergo thanks I (still would) hate it.

Easily equipping the boots would definitely help, though.

That aside, I'm excited for you, it's a great game that stands with the SNES Final Fantasy games and Chrono Trigger as far as I'm concerned
