I got that "Mom hid my game" thing from the presentation yesterday, parts 1 and 2. As someone said it's free and each one takes about twenty minutes to complete. It was fun, and funny though! There's a whole series. If it is less than $5 I'll shoot them a couple bucks of support.

I heavily endorse the Gunvolt games as they are the real Megaman successors over Mighty No. 9 and are incredibly fun.

Oxenfree is getting a Switch release. Hard to explain it without spoiling the plot but it's a neato indie mystery horror game.

It does the Telltale thing where when you beat it it shows a pie chart of what the most common dialogue/quest choices were picked and compares your playthrough against everyone elses. Would've been neat if New Vegas had this mechanic

Have to send my Switch back for repairs because it doesn't recognize both joycons as connected in portable mode. The CSR must have said "perfect" a hundred times while I was talking to him. Perfect. Perfect on the Switch.

Every single good Sonic game is post apocalyptic, you just never noticed.

Yeah but they were filled with bright-rear end colors, bouncy music, and cute animals popped out of enemies. Everything we've seen of Forces looks like a god drat PS1 JRPG cutscene when the bad guy decides to destroy a city. Robonik is the Dick Dastardly of Sonic, but they try and make him like Sephiroth or Kefka.

Sonic forces is gonna be bad but I'll pick it up at 40 on sheer nostalgia (for the ps4, I've heard the switch version has frame rate issues)

This is such a simple solution to an annoying problem, and I don't think I've seen it on any other consoles besides the Switch:

Printed codes in boxes with crappy font where "1" could be "I" or "0" could be "O" aren't always as clear as they could be. So Nintendo took a different approach, and disabled the I, Z, and O keys on the code entry page and simply NEVER uses those letters.

Pop out into a hellscape of war where cities burn like the Middle East, because Robonik lusts for a world of fire and brimstone apparently. The mood is off. The one level in Generations that was a destroyed city with lava everyone was absolute trash, but the rest of the game was perfect. I hope the whole game is just bright-rear end 90s colors and this is just a skippable cutscene that doesn't look like any part of the actual game.

Playing metroid on the NES sure made me careful to write very oval zeros with a line through them and very square ohs with a dot in the middle

Sega should just make a new Streets of Rage game exclusive for the Switch because local coop with single Joycons would work great and would be PERFECT for the Switch

Failing that someone should make a racing/battle royal hybrid video game based on SYFY's Blood Drive with random NPC crazies and innocents to feed into your engine for fuel

It's a very elegant solution and probably less expensive than recalling and reprinting a bunch of cards.

It's one of the best stages in the game despite coming from the worst game in the series.

The part of classic Sonic's stage where the tornado carries away the goal ring is great.

Yeah, it's just disabling a few characters in code generation versus changing how their cards are printed.

That really isn't dumb at all. It's not like it limits key generation for Nintendo severely since they have a bunch of other characters they can still use.

Having built a few similar systems, it's a good, and common, practice to not use those ambiguous characters. What's neat is because Nintendo also controls the text input they could take the extra step of presenting that custom keyboard.

Is Mario even human? The residents of New Donk City are ~66% taller than him and differently proportioned. Are we sure he could breed true?

Sooo I went to ShopKo with a friend as he needed to fill up a prescription and checked the electronics section for a Switch as a co-worker was looking for one. They had a tag so I brought it to cashier and during the checkout process it knocked the price by 20% down to $240.

Didn't question it and looked at the receipt afterward and saw they have the Switch marked as a clearance item so it automatically took 20% off. Anyway, worth checking ShopKo for Switches if you want a deal.
