DoctaMario Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Downloaded this fun little game called Boomerang Fu, that's a local multi-player. It's like Goldeneye meets Bomberman and is actually really really fun and a pretty simple game that kids could play. It doesn't have any online, only local multi-player and you can get up to 6 players in on it. There's even a demo you can download that is pretty fully featured for a demo. Quote Link to comment

They probably never will. At least 8BitDo has done the original button colors justice on the SN30 Pro+, the Pro 2 though doesn't have a SNES/Super Famicom colorway yet that I've seen.

iStu X Posted April 3, 2021 Author Share Posted April 3, 2021 The magnamalo amiibo is a big chungus. The only thing I don’t understand is why they didn’t give it a bigger base like how they did with Detective Pikachu. It being on a standard amiibo base really hurts the quality, IMO.

MillionX Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 It would've been so great if technology was at this point when I was a kid... I keep thinking of how great it would've been to take Switch everywhere with me as a kid... I absolutely would've been playing it in church while the pastor was preaching. (*for me, it was the Gameboy way back in those ancient times...funny that the adults in the church probably thought I was praying with everyone else but really...my head was down looking at a screen, while I continue kicking more foot clan dudes in TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan, or shooting things up in Operation C, or running through that old Batman game) Taking it to school would've been a problem, considering the low-class thug-wannabe scum I went to school with. More than likely someone would've snatched it from me. That blue (looks more purple-ish to me...) switch lite is alright---I'd prefer a darker or "royal blue" though. It still puzzles me as to why there's not a LOT of color schemes on this system. In the Gameboy and DS era, Nintendo was the king of the alternative design/"choose your color!" situation. There were so many color/style variations of the older portables, I lost count....there was a little something for everyone there. Wellman, JHDK and DoctaMario 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Wellman Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 As great as the Switch is, I know because of the system and how it is made that is the reason they don't have as many colorful or interesting designs on the main body. They are losing money IMO not making customizable or more specially designed docks available. Quote Link to comment
DoctaMario Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) I wound up picking up Rival Megagun over the weekend and finally got around to checking it out. Game is fun af. If you don't remember, it's that 1 vs 1 shmup where you build meter by chaining enemy kills and you can put that towards your character's special move or fill the meter totally and transform into a mega ship and attack your opponent directly. It's on sale for $7.50 right now and if anyone else is interested in playing it, let me know because it really is a good time. Edited April 19, 2021 by DoctaMario RSG3 1 Quote Link to comment

They are trying, and despite the sales, failing to keep up with demand. Except for the Lite. It only sells well when the standard model is out of stock. I think the way it's selling is why there aren't as many special versions of the console. Wellman 1 Quote Link to comment

ACNH also supports cloud saves now, iirc. if anything call Nintendo support and have them walk you through it. Their customer service center is the best I’ve ever interacted with.

Yeah I know. But there’s almost 1000 Pokémon now. Not even 250 seems silly to me. Dont get me wrong, I was never expecting the full roster of Pokémon. That’s fucking dumb. But 250 seems like we’re being short changed. If it was around the 400-500 range than I’d day one it no question. But for now I’m just gunna wait to see if any free updates come out that bump the count up. Edited April 30, 2021 by iStu X Quote Link to comment
