jivjov posted:I love that Nintendo just KEEPS using "shove the name of the system into the title" as the be-all end-all naming strategy. Actually, I think they've cut down on that considerably since the GBA and DS. New SMB is the only series I can think of that still does it regularly. Like, even Mario Kart switched to normal sequel numbering.

[SCENE: A teenaged girl is standing in front of a mirror in a dark attic, nearly pitch-black but for the lit candles strewn about. After a long silence, she stares directly into the mirror and begins to speak.] GIRL: You can't transfer your NNID. You can't transfer your NNID... You can't transfer your NNID! [Quiet. Then, from the corner of her vision, a monstrous silhouette stumbles out of the darkness in the reflection.] JIVJOV: Well, actually, [All of the candles blow out simultaneously, as if hit by a gust of wind. Cut to the outside of a decrepit house. The opened front door is slammed shut by an unseen force as a bloodcurdling scream pierces the night.]

Aw man, I'm gonna have to buy like seven more full amiibo sets to afford this tote bag. Where am I going to-- *jivjov looks behind him and sees a pile of amiibos he doesn't remember buying* to find the...the room...*he turns back to the computer desk, where another set has appeared on the shelf above; he reaches to them in confusion, realizing that his arms are covered in barely-legible transactions scrawled in his own handwriting* Oh god, not like this! Not like this!

If only there was some other way to add profiles to Miitomo, like perhaps some manner of code your friends could share with you...

I'm sarcastically referencing the fact that Nintendo already implemented friend codes, a system to add people you may not necessarily know very well to your friend list, but is reluctant to allow their users to do that after the Swapnote controversy. I have not played Miitomo, because I could instead use that time on actual video games, so I do not know firsthand whether or not it actually uses friend codes.

Boten Anna posted:Sticker Star 1 sucked and I'm not even going to consider it unless they remove the "five guys -gate" joke no matter how accidental it was because gently caress that. also this is spoilered because I don't want to fight about it don't @ me no matter how good it ends up being. Don't worry, it'll probably be just as soulless and unfun as Sticker Star, regardless of...that.

In Picross 3D Round 2, can someone explain Tips and Tricks vol. 2, Skill 16? The one with a 5x5 grid and sets of circled 2s on the edges. The tip it gives to mark potential blocks doesn't seem to be helping.

Is Color Splash actually fun to play or are they still doing the Sticker Star...thing? It sure looks nice, it's still kind of bland and generic but at least the HD makes it a pretty-looking generic.

Alright. Personally I don't think Sticker Star's combat is redeemable, but poo poo, I've been wrong before. How about the environments then? I know they can't pull off another Shy Guy Toy Box or Twilight Town, but is it at least a step up from SS's Grass Plain, Water World, uhh idk I think there was a ghost house???, etc.

SeANMcBAY posted:The environments seem much more varied. Circus, train, pirate ship, restaurant, Mario 3 world, etc. Alright, that's good. Sounds like a step in the right direction. Still a rental, though. I actually stayed up to get Sticker Star as soon as it was available, and I am not making that mistake again.

Why is it always Nintendo fans who are like "No, I want to pay for the privilege of playing games I've already bought!" I'm not paying $10 again for EarthBound. I don't care how many bespoke, artisanal touches went into ensuring that the emulator works.

SeANMcBAY posted:I pretty much play just 98% Nintendo and I hope they, at least, let all 50 of us that bought a Wii U transfer our VC games for free and perhaps give us a nice discount on all the many Wii U ports the Switch will probably get. Neither of these things will happen, though at least Nintendo isn't the only one doing one of them

Houle posted:Alright, thanks. I'll hold off picking up the discount until it is about to expire. 54~CAD isn't a bad price. Just buy Xenoblade 3D and play the original version in Dolphin instead. I don't even care if you've beaten it already, you're honestly better off playing it again than bothering with X.

My brother's PC that was built in 2010 plays Rebirth at a constant 60 unless you do something stupid like exploiting the blank card to spawn like a thousand pickups in one room. Oh right, Nicalis. Never mind.

Why are they still putting stuff out for the Wii U, even VC? The Switch has, like, six games total. They can put Pikmin 2 on the Wii U, but they don't even have one NES or SNES game ready for their new console that's been out for three weeks?

In Training posted:The PS4 still doesn't have PS1 support idk companies are weird. I mean, the PS4 also had and has strong third-party support, and going by Wikipedia, it had at least two exclusive first-party launch games (Killzone and Knack), which puts it one ahead of the Switch. I'd say the PS4 doesn't need PS1 games nearly as much as the Switch needs VC.

A shame it never came out in English officially since it's easily the best one after the original. Oh poo poo, I didn't know they actually finished a fan translation of that one! I'll check it out, thanks.

Speaking of Dragon Quest, is anyone else not able to get bonus items in DQ8? It just quits as soon as it tries to connect to the internet. Resetting the game and the 3DS didn't help. I gotta get my lovely gimmick equipment, baby
