The fact that I can't message someone on my Switch friends list from the Switch itself doesn't matter at all to me because if we're Switch friends then there's 30 other ways I can get in contact with you.

A very real use case: meet someone in a game, add them as a friend, try to play with them again. Without any sort of chat functionality, you literally can't coordinate anything with that person.

This used to happen to me quite a bit back when I was still playing a lot of 360 games online. People would add me and then occasionally ping me when they wanted to play again, and I'd hop on with them for a bit. And the Switch is even halfway there already--you can find a list of people you've recently played with, and add their friend codes from there! Why have a friends list, and a way to add pubbies to it, if you can't actually use it in any meaningful way?

Resident Evil Revelations is $14 on the eShop right now. Worth it or no?

I enjoyed it. Never played the OG release of it. Fun kinda spooky slow-paced 3rd person shooter. Resident Eviley. I bought it when it came out. I forget how much it cost me then, but $14 is a decent price for it if you're into that sorta gameplay.

Thanks! I noticed after I posted that both of them are $14. I may end up doing some RE this weekend.

I've found that nearly any adult job and basic money management gets you enough money for All The Games, it's the lack of time that's the issue...

The main caveat being that if you have kids then yeah you're pretty much always broke regardless

Course there's definitely really ripe months that hit the wallet pretty hard, I'll admit. Those $60 price tags stack the gently caress up

I try to avoid paying $60 for most games, especially since I favor digital and the value is further lessened there

I don't think a Direct has ever leaked that way before but they should have a Direct on the third just to gently caress with people to think it did.

Get these, as someone who owns multiple brands of joycon stick extenders, these are the best, bar none:

Yes, these are great.

A question for those who have them: What setup do you use? FPS Pro makes the sticks really great to use in shooters but they make the sticks too drat tall for my case, and if I'm using the face buttons on the right joycon my thumb accidentally touches the stick a lot. So I went to the FPS Master and... They're fine. They're okay.

I was in grad school when the Ps4 released and I was able to scrap up on games and booze.

Ironically by the end of grad school I was playing Xbox 360 cause... Ps4 had no games!

Poppibuster mission was actually really easy and took like fifteen minutes. Also I discovered I can farm legendary cores off the praetor giant bird dragon thingie unique near the top of the world tree. I got like mine legendary cores doing this mission cause I kept fighting that thing over again to do the different specials I needed to do

Really? I’ll have to farm it too, sine I need zenobia and most of the ng+ blades. If I beat the final boss, I can still play without having to start over again, right?

It helps that I started grad school at 29 and not right after college when I had no money.

I started right after college and still had money for gaming, mostly due to tutoring part time and loans. I always made time for gaming too because otherwise I would have gone batshit insane...bouts of persona 4 golden got me through my behemoth of a final project.

grad school was good to me though. It hammered every last lazy fiber out of me because otherwise you'd drown. It did wonders for my general approach to everything. I half assed a lot of stuff beforehand for honestly no good reason

Which brings me to my next point, I just got the last set of charms and grubs on Hollow Knight! God drat this game was just as amazing the second time around

I feel the same. And my first job after grad school was really strenuous and took a lot of time and energy.

Then, all my jobs since that... well, let's just say my posting got a lot more frequent.
