Good enough for me. I just hooked it up and everything seems to be working on my TV when it was sitting in its dock which I presume would't have happened if it weren't powered? Turned it off to give it time to get back to 100% before the test punch.

But why go through all this bullshit when Discord does the same thing but it's easier and more convenient? Also what the gently caress happened to Mumble? Why does it look so terrible now?

I'm both uninformed and highly opinionated about new technology/services, and I'm sure I'd have some legitimate but miniscule gripe with Discord. Like, don't even have a Google account but still have an Android (work) phone. Also because the server is my home router, there is 0 latency between me and my roommates, and very low latency between internet buddies, since their communications go as directly to us as is possible.

Oh, gotta get somewhere internet-friendly for the upcoming Test Punch!

what the gently caress are you on, i use discord on pc and ps4s built in party chat on ps4. never in the history of anything have i ever sat there thinking "wow this voice chat sucks better load up a program on my phone to do it instead of using this fully integrated party and chat system" while using ps4 voice.

unless you mean the actual in game chat options which vary by game, but if youre just talking to friends why the hell would you ever use that over the consoles own voice chat and party system?

apparently he doesn't believe in wifi or smartphones or something like that, I wouldn't stress too much about trying to figure out the thought process behind his methodology

Discord is basically everything you want in a chat/voice chat program, you can also embed pictures and videos into the chat. Kinda owns.

Pretty hosed up that the Japanese have been able to play Super Mario World since November 21, 1990.

I find ARMS fun in like 15-minute spurts which is NG

THAT 3-on-1 boss fight is kinda fun though, this game would be way more fun if it was like a third person Smash TV.

Hey, are you listening to a word I'm saying?
I've been playing nothing but Disgaea. Goddamn do I love those dumb grindy games. I'm looking forward to some more good weeb poo poo coming out for this thing.

Also I've had to bring my 3DS to work since I know some guys who're playing MH4U and wanted me to come clown on some bullshit with my G-rank kit. I really really hope we get MHXX sooner than not at all.

Throwing is good against anyone who blocks too much, but it's easy to disrupt any throw with any single-handed punch.

I don't know if Arms sucks or is good, but I couldn't be bothered to download and play any of the test punches so I probably won't bother to get the game either.
