I'd pay $20 a month if it got me access to Nintendo's catalog through the Gamecube

A Gameboy Mini would be interesting. Supposedly they could just release a gameboy looking thing but with ROMs. I feel like that would sell tons on Nostalgia alone (imagine if they gave it different cases, like the transparent one), but Gameboys aren't the most convenient portable being fairly bulky and would people, especially younger generations, tolerate such a small screen?

Maybe the solution would to be releasing a mini in the form of the GBC. I imagine they just won't ever do it. Nintendo has always treated their portables somewhat differently from their consoles. Which is what makes the Switch stand out even more. Will they even continue having a separate portable division once the 3DS wraps up?

It's significantly smaller than the original but still comfortable to use, the screen is pixel perfect, and it plays everything up to GBA

That'd be nice, but the gamecube modem is several hundred dollars. There's some 512MB GCN memory cards now so storage shouldn't be an issue.

I think the switch could grow into nintendo's best system yet. I could see my fondness for this thing exceeding even the SNES someday.

I got a dial-up GCN modem back in the day for $20

I wonder if it can be used for literally anything at all these days

I had an old USB Modem I got for $15 "just incase" back in like 2004 that I spotted recently and finally sent that to be recycled. I'm sure I have twisted copper in that utility pipe somewhere but lol no way it's connected at this point to the house.

Even if you got into a dial up ISP with a GCN yeah there is no way it knows how to talk to anything anymore. Someone will just have to throw that modem out when you die

Galaxy is a great game, but I've never liked Rosalina. Sure the series needs more women, but she just seemed like a knock-off version of Peach but in Space!. Does she even have much of a personality? Daisy is cool because they've managed to write her in a way that's different. Pauline's resurrection in Odyssey was great and somewhat inspired. Rosalina just seems to have no purpose whatsoever.

I believe you can use it to play on private PSO servers still. The real thing you want is the 100/100 network adapter. It sells for a ton because you need it to play Mario Kart on LAN and to pirate games (you can spend several minutes loading a game from a network share if you know what you are doing). Again this is all gamecube, but there's totally a scene around doing both of these things. I looked at the price tag and have opted to just rebuild my gamecube collection buying used games for $2-4, everything from Amazon.

Can anyone recommend a good starter guide to someone totally new to Monster Hunter and bought MHGU? I'm doing the tutorial missions and stuff but still find myself a little overwhelmed and all the videos on youtube I've found are really specific (like how to do this one specific thing). Looking just for a general guide for noobs (doesn't have to be on youtube or a video guide)

Find a weapon you lick and stick with that weapon type. Kill monsters and make better weapons of the same type. Each weapon has it's own completely unique play style. In most of the games the first few missions are going to be gathering missions but you should soon take off into hunt missions where you have a single objective kill or capture a specific monster (it's probably going to be the only boss, but there may be others roaming that you don't need to kill).

First thing you probably want is to craft yourself some armor, the bonuses are really nice and that is what you will mostly want. While you are still getting used to the controls for your weapon you are going to want high defense so you can take some hits.

You want multiple weapons so you can hit elemental weaknesses (same type, though you could go with a fire sword and an ice gun lance no problem, it's just more learning curve so start out easy). You may want to actually look up the elemental weaknesses of each boss monster on a wiki they aren't always obvious.

You will be killing each boss monster multiple times, and probably in different environments. After awhile you will unlock hi-rank, this is a completely new set of armor, you will want to spend some time gathering to increase the defense. As this is an expansion game you will also have access to G-rank after Hi-Rank which is even more crazy fun stuff.

Attacking is going to feel unresponsive / clunky at first for many weapons, especially the big rear end ones. There are few if any frames you can cancel an attack on, so you are basically committed to the swing I mean look at the size of that weapon you are swinging it think about how much momentum it has. You can't easily side step. If the Twin Daggers (Deamon blades?) are in that version they are can be good for just weaving in and out if that's your play style.

Try out all the weapons, you should start with a starter set for each.

edit: what you want is to open a wiki open the page for a monster before you start a mission to hunt it, and match your weapon's element to it's weakness, if you don't have one you might want to look into building one. Don't get too into building weapons before hi-rank as the power level gap between normal hi and G are all very large.

Yeah, not getting the attack boost means you are terrible. However, being in the air constantly dodges a lot of attacks.

I feel like I've seen her hair before. It feels like a popular design for animated characters generally speaking, far from original.
