My girlfriend's preorder of the animal crossing switch at Target was just cancelled. She's pretty unhappy about it as animal crossing is really the only series she cares about. What would be the best way to procure one? Brickseek.com closer to release date and camp at a store that's shown to have one?

Allegedly GameStops are gonna have them available on launch day for walk-ins so you might want to give those a try when they open.

It is the year 2067. I sit alone in a darkened room, repeatedly hitting refresh on Slay the Spire, hoping one day the Watcher Update will be released. My grandchildren plead with me to come onto the porch and enjoy the new pollution filtration system that has been installed. Not yet, children. Not yet.

I created a twitter account today to bitch and moan about the lack of update.

I swear I'm not usually like this, but its almost a month just for QA to approve the patch.

Someone with more insight than me explain to me how this is taking so long.

Probably the best bet. Every GameStop is supposedly getting "between 1 and 5" Animal Crossing Switches for sale on release day (13th, not 20th!)

Still waiting for Best Buy to let me down, again... I never learn my lesson preordering limited edition stuff from them. I'll be especially perplexed if they cancel on me this time, since I got in on it well before the product listing sold out, and they've restocked multiple times since then.

Probably because QA found a bug and it needs fixing?

Yeah, I'm worried about this too. I ordered about 30 minutes after they went on sale on the Best Buy website but it's supposed to be a gift for my mother-in-law and I really don't feel like having to scramble at the last second to find one.

im a few hours into the witcher 3... trying not to hate the way its movement feels.. i do wanna like this game, there's a lot to like. the character moves like poo poo though! i cant be the only one who thinks that

Spiteski posted:

There is an option in the menu that changes how the movement feels. I prefer the alternative personally but you might like it the opposite. Give it a whirl

yah the alternative setting for "movement response" option under gameplay feels better for me. I think.

its more like he's running always running around a soccer ball that's about to trip his feet vs the original where it seems like he's avoiding an invisible beach ball

All I know is that QA/Patch Approval for Nintendo takes so loving long that I completely lost the will to play Bloodstained waiting for the patch. It was an embarrassingly long wait.

They have to rigorously vet these patches because Nintendo Consoles are extremely easy to backdoor and hack if devs aren't careful, i imagine that takes more than average amount of time.

The Bloodstained patch took forever because the devs were in over their heads, not because of Nintendo QA.

I mean it's also entirely possible QA actually found a bug or something.

Slay the Spire has some really weird glitches when you go to sleep mode in certain segments. Stuff like that has to be checked too and it's entirely possible they found "Oh, if we put it into sleep right as you choose the watcher it causes your game to crash while also displaying Bowsette porn for some reason"
