There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.

Yeah they should release an official steam app to stream from your library. There's rainway of course but an official Steam one would be better.

If there was an official way to stream from my Steam library to my Switch, I would be so happy

Is there any way at all to adjust the sensitivity for Y Axis and X Axis separately in Splatoon? I've never played before and it's fun but there is no way I'm using the motion controls and when I try to use regular controls it's been tough because when the speed is perfect for left to right, it's way too fast for up and down. After being used to computer shooters, I really need to adjust to a controller again and that doesn't help :(

Motion controls let you set the motion and stick sensitivity separately, use motion controls the end.

I've used motion 100% of the time but I still haven't gotten used to it. How long does it take? It's glorious in Zelda because you're standing still, but I haven't got the hang of using them while moving. Especially on rails

Yeah aiming with gyro and manipulating a block from third person perspective with gyro aren't the least bit comparable

Hey folks, simple question here but I couldn't really find an answer. I want to buy my brother a game for his Switch, am I able to digitally gift games to him? He prefers the digital copies, so I'm only being partially lazy here.

Thanks!

Not yet. This was s feature on the Wii eventually, don't know if it ever showed up on WiiU.

Your best bet is to just go on his eShop and buy it with your card while he's in another room, or log into his account on a computer.

AFAIK there's nothing like Steam gifting, but you can just buy a digital code on amazon or wherever and send the code to him just fine.

Big Screen mode has been nothing but buggy loving glitch infested garbage, and it makes using a controller a loving pointless exercise in frustration.

I thought you didn't need to use Big Picture for Steam in-home streaming, unless that's the only option for the Steamlink then yikes.

I don't know if there's a way to bypass it, but when you connect with steam link, you just exit big picture and it gives you your desktop. I use it for watching Amazon prime because it's artifacty bullshit on my Xbox.

Some stores have download cards so you can buy him a digital code but still hand him a gift or whatever.

You have to turn the controller like a bus steering wheel to get decent turning speed on the X axis for motion controls

Sony will definitely congratulate Nintendo when they outsell the xbone.

They did it for Wii/360 and Nintendo did it when PS3 overtook the 360.

After all the heated competition they can still unite to tell Microsoft to eat a dick.

Zelda had motion control issues cause there was no press y to reset options you had to cancel out of whatever thing you were doing.

Also the physics had weight and lagged behind movement, Splatoon doesn't have that drag.
