I'm pretty hyped for saltiron triangles.

Everything else not so much.

Oot has a lot of tech reliant on hitting exact cardinals on the analog stick and gamecube controllers have an octagonal gate

Playing on Wii also has a lot less lag but if that was the only reason I wouldn't have switched

An N64 controller would be even better for having real C buttons but they don't make those anymore and 3rd party is always a crapshoot

Is the drift problem something that can't be solved with system software calibration

I know drift can be alleviated by increasing the deadzone (which is why it's a shame playstations don't let you adjust these things on a system level), but that itself becomes problematic if the drift is too severe.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.
Yeah, the problem with the deadzone is that it's, well, a deadzone, so the bigger you make it the less fine control you have with that stick.

I'm just glad it's Pyra/Mythra and not Rex

Also I vaguely noticed that Mythra's design wasn't as bad as I remembered and then I realized they gave her more actual clothes for her Smash design and that's why :v:

I think my 8bitdoo is drifting a bit

Not in a way that impacts game play, but the stick will sometimes get a mind of its own in menus and drift up

I recently found out that the fangame Mushroom Kingdom Fusion is somehow still in active development (again); lurking on that game's forums without an account was pretty much my first real internet experience back in 2009 or so, and the game was and is fascinating in its overambitiousness. It's a mega-crossover (and that term is very appropriate here) with gameplay fundamentally based on the early Mario games, but adding assets, enemies, characters and mechanics from a gigantic number of other classic or semi-classic games. The quality is of course extremely uneven, but apparently the current devs are actively addressing complaints about the level design, which is probably a good sign.

I think development on it started in the mid-aughts, development-team members came and went (frequently on less than amiable terms), the project crumbled and was resurrected multiple times, and the latest update (v.0.75) was released today:
https://fusion-fangaming.itch.io/mushroom-kingdom-fusion

It's probably very much not for everyone, but I think it's impressive that something like this exists at all.

Same with the sole exception of N64 controllers which are so weak you can snort the powder that grinds into the crevasse.

That Fortnite money is really strong, a lot of developers are willing to sellout to have their entire game funded pretty much obligation free, just to fuel Tim Sweeneys rich person vendetta against Gabe Newell.

Nu-Hitman trilogy is kind of weird in that each successive game was less impressive than the one that came before.

Is it weird that I cannot possibly begin to care about Steam vs. EGS? Maybe it's because I don't do the majority of my gaming on PC, only some of it, I dunno. People get so fired up about EGS exclusivity and while I can understand having a preferred launcher, it seems like people are a lot more passionate about it than that.

I wouldn't care as much if EGS didn't suck so much. Epic has had a long time now to actually make their launcher more user friendly, they've done absolutely nothing, they just kinda dropped support on their launcher outright. To its credit you only need it to download games, after that, just make a .exe short cut of your games to your desktop.

Yeah, that kinda sucks. I can definitely understand just preferring not to use a worse launcher.

Any games I got an EGS I just linked to Steam and launched through that anyway. It just bugs me not to have the Steam features as standard and I always regret not just waiting.

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


EGS just has a lot of anti-consumer tendencies that I can only see getting worse, and the way they're using their startup capital to try to chip away at the existing market while slipping those lovely practices in reminds me of terrible companies like Uber.

I have no loyalty to Steam per se but I deeply mistrust EGS.
