yeah it's totally awesome that they made it so the controls work on a single joycon to support little brother mode. it wouldnt be better at all if there was a separate button for dive so you don't accidentally ground pound in to the abyss :thumbsup:

I don't think odyssey has bad controls if you use split joycon but they clearly only designed the controls around that, there's a bunch of cappy moves I think you straight up can't do without split joycon motion

really? I played through on a pro, the only move that was weird to do was the cappy spin since you had to do it like the n64 zelda quick spin. But the cappy spin is pointless so I didn't care much

You can do all the motion controls with the Pro Controller too. It's really handheld mode that makes it awkward

it does feel good thanks in big part to the great framerate but my opinion was tarnished by the annoying disappearing city moons and hate for motion controls.

I guess the moves I'm thinking of just feel more natural on split joycon like upward/downwards cap throw and homing

Gotta x-post myself from the music thread, just for the best ever rendition of the 64 theme. The album is on YouTube and has a lot of other jams, including shiggy rockin the banjo on a bangin slide theme

Sharks Eat Bear posted:

wasn't sure to post this here or in the nintendo thread. also not sure if this is just like widely known, like duh you don't have to post this we all already know it and love it, since i been out of the game for a few years. BUT this is the best actual performance of the best video game music to ever be created in past or future

Rereading my post I can see how it sounded like I was embarrassed of liking Mario music, which is not at all the case. Embarrassed at how much I want to write thousands of words comparing Miyamoto to Trey Anastasio

ACTUALLY the foundation of the comparison is less about the music or composition itself and more about their roles as bringers of wholesome joy into the world, whose creative peaks are pure embodiments of playfulness without pretentiousness or self-seriousness. The childish silliness of their art has at times led to reputations of being deeply uncool, and in a sense these reputations are earned — coolness isn’t the point, coolness is fickle, Trey and Shiggy are making art that’s timeless, that transcen—
