well why not posted:Wii U is a bad purchase. they're not supported anywhere and any future Nintendo titles will not be on it. It's a dead console and has been for a year. it's fine to pick up if there's stuff you must have on there, but that doesn't seem the case. I'm actually looking to sell mine, via eBay or SA-Mart, I never intend on getting a Wii U again but there's a lot of digital purchases on the console but I don't know how kosher it is to sell my account as well. Does anyone sell Wii U's with their accounts on them?

One day a child will ask their parents "how did you guys meet?" The mother will respond with "Well, I sat next to your father on a plane and he had a Nintendo Switch. At that moment I knew I had to talk to him."

You can do crazy poo poo like natively play GameCube games over HDMI. There's all the Wii stuff too, of course.

Theta Zero posted:A tic is just how many times per second a server updates a player's location. Games with low tic rates often translate into you getting hit by somebody when you round a corner or conversely a hit not registering because a player is moving too fast or irregularly, depending on the net code. Splatoon 2 also updates three times as often as CoD: IW or Blops 3.

Buddy of mine let me borrow his card of Splatoon 2. I played for several hours, totally dug it. I want to buy it over digital, as I want digital only library - so will my 'save' that I had on my buddy's copy be picked up?

Six frames of animation per update. That's more than the input lag of basically every television made in the last ten years. BF4/console Overwatch operate at 30. CS:GO - 60 and up. As I recall, Splatoon 2 is 30. It was posted months ago in this thread somewhere. Mister Facetious fucked around with this message at 02:12 on Aug 21, 2017 |

I wouldn't be surprised if Splats 2 did try and match similar ranked people of similar connection quality, because there are 6 or 7 dudes I am matched up with day after day for the last 2 weeks. Never had that happen in Splats 1, but happens all the time in this one.

Spent four hours playing Zelda today. Really fun game. Early-game question, trying to avoid all spoilers so not going into the main Zelda thread or Googling guides but wanted to ask here: I'm assuming the only way to get the warm coat from the old man to go to the 3rd shrine is to kill a pig to get raw meat to make the pepper/bass/meat dish. What's the secret to getting the pig to show up and the best way to kill it? They run away every time I get close so I'm guessing the bow but I'm awful with the bow.

Yeah the bow. But you don't need warm clothes to climb into cold areas. You could cook a meal with spicy peppers and another ingredient to have food that gives you cold resistance. You could carry a lit torch. Also I think the dish he wants might be a specific meat.

You might wanna keep in mind that air shots have a slowdown effect that can make aiming easier.

I think it prefers regional distance. Evidenced by my IP once being geolocated in Mexico and my getting paired up with a suspiciously high percentage of Hispanic names. Same thing happened to me in Destiny.

There are also other ways to acquire the same coat, if you get through the cold area by some other method. On my first playthrough, I didn't find the hut until about a hundred hours in when I saw it discussed here.

Oh, also, if you make it to the top without the coat he will show up and be like "here have a warm coat" so that's another option if you want to cram food down your maw repeatedly

enojy posted:I agree with that dude 100% but I hate to say it's just not going to happen (dedicated servers for Splatoon 2.) Yeah. For what it's worth I don't find it that bad in practice. The high risk of double splatting in head-to-head fighting feels intended and I haven't been splatted around a corner yet. Once a paid subscription (no matter how cheap) is part of the equation I might have higher standards.

Welp, the problem un-fixed itself. It once again disconnects from every single game of Splatoon 2 I attempt, but rather than right at the beginning it now lets me get to the 1 minute mark or so then DC's. I really don't get it. Yeah, yeah, "your internet sucks", but no, that's horseshit. I played this a shitton since release and this never had more than 1 DC or so in a long session until two days ago, and now it happens constantly. Can't finish a single match. Never had this problem with Splatoon 1 either. Guess I'm done with this game. I'd be more willing to buy that it was my internet if Splatoon 1, Smash 4, Mario Kart 8 and literally every other game I play over wifi had this problem, but it's just Splatoon 2 and it's just since Friday. To put it short, I am very angry about squids. Thank you, that is all.

I think Sonic Mania is better then almost anything Mario has put out 2D wise since... SMW? Like it's kind of hard to even judge in that regard because the two games are so vastly different in how they play the only comparison that can be made is "you can jump on things" Mario can rest easy though when it comes to like, Forces vs Odyssey lol.

If there has to be another non-Maker 2D game, I hope it's in a pixel artstyle. 2D platformers just don't work as well with 3D models imo.

I don't know if you can download premade adventure maps on the console versions but that can be fun as well with friends.
