This is how it goes with basically every game I play with one of my friends. He's quite good at Tetris, and I'm fairly good at puyo (the only game system I had as a kid was a Game Gear, and the only game with good replayability on it was Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine). I basically get one shot in the beginning to build a combo big enough to bury him. If it's not big enough to finish him off, and he can dig down to the trash layers, I'm completely hosed, because each row of trash only has one empty square, so he can just go crazy on combos until I'm dead.

The Lobster posted:So this is off topic but I'm trying to get a TEFL certificate (teaching English as a foreign language certificate) so I've gone back to school for that and I'm currently in the class leading up to the practicum, which is supposed to teach us various teaching methods, how to make a lesson plan, etc. One of our assignments is to make a 50-minute lesson plan and then teach the "best" 12 minutes of that plan to our class. It's not until a little later in the year but I'm hoping to use my Switch in it. The teacher said we should incorporate something that interests us, for example if we can play the guitar or something. I immediately thought of the Switch. So I thought I would use 1-2 Switch to teach the present participle. I am counting balls, She is tilting the controller, He is eating sandwiches. It's something that has salvaged a game I otherwise have been unable to play. I brought a guy I am thinking of dating over to try and unlock all the games (which we did) and we had a pretty decent time with the game, but some of them were really obtuse or not fun. That said, video games with lots of text are a good way to learn a new language, but it has to be the students playing through them over a long period of time so that they see the words over and over again. You can't do it in 12 minutes.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:Then you should also have read more closely that the proposed lesson was not about pure vocabulary but involved the present participle, which because it describes action occurring through the present moment, actually benefits from live demonstration to separate it from simple present tense

The next five days seems like plenty of time for the Republicans to formulate and execute a new strategy for dismantling the American healthcare system and a fifth of the economy of the world's most powerful nation, yet also not nearly enough time for a role-playing golf game with 25-year-old graphics to become available for download on a popular gaming console.

Does Golf Story have a way to pan or zoom out the camera while in shot mode? I'm basically just trying to avoid moles and hazards on each shot, and then suddenly I'm on the green. I'd like to be able to have more of an overview like in NES Golf.

I use it for marking spots for the longer segments of the most extreme left/top possibility, and then use the cursor to count out the most extreme right/bottom possibility, and the marked off squares are invaluable for finding sections of guaranteed overlap. I also occasionally use them if I get to a point where I can't figure out how to proceed, but somewhere I have a 50%/50% shot of guessing. I use the empty square markers to play out one of the scenarios until I finish the map or a contradiction occurs.

GI_Clutch posted:Just wanted to remind people that Pinball FX3 (free download)'s promotion with the three free tables ends tomorrow (12/19). I downloaded it last night and have been having a blast. But I don't think I can justify the price to re-buy the tables I already have on Steam. Tesla's my favorite, but it only comes as part of a $10 pack, and I don't like any of the other tables. I'll probably hold off until some of them go on sale. Also, does anyone have any opinions on Stern Pinball Arcade for Switch? I've heard the Steam version is a broken train wreck, though I don't know the specifics of what makes it so bad. I tried the free Frankenstein table on Switch, and it seems fine, I guess - feels just like classic Pinball Arcade. Has the Switch version fixed some of the problems, or have I just not encountered them yet? I'm considering getting Ghostbusters and Star Trek.

DLC Inc posted:whoa, Lost Sphear comes out already in January? Thought that had a while to go but maybe was thinking of Octopath. I tried the demo and it seems alright, how did everyone else like it I can't say the little bit of story drew me in, though. Lots of talking. I just can't get into games where there are tons of NPCs to keep track of anymore. Making "lost" areas of the map appear with memory items also seemed kind of stupid. If general goon consensus says that it's amazing after release, I'll probably buy it. But otherwise I think I'll pass.

Fly Ricky posted:Is this new? How have I not heard about this... Pinball FX3 gives you three free tables, or at least it did at launch. Stern Pinball Arcade gives you Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. FX3 has pretty good online stuff, with tournaments and whatnot. SPA not so much. Overall, I really like FX3, but I couldn't bring myself to buy tables again for a new system (some of them would be for the third time). I might bite the bullet if they ever do Steam-style sales where selected tables cost $0.99, but I doubt we'll get that any time soon. I bought Ghostbusters on SPA, but haven't played it much. Seems decent enough, though.

man nurse posted:The line of “classic” mini consoles they’re making ain’t portable. Virtual Console when The Mega Man Collection is going to be a day one download, even though I've already bought it for 3DS. The dream is a proper VC, but I'll take even retail individual re-releases as long as they're on Switch. I'm just never going buy a standalone console that has to be played on a TV. I've moved beyond that now.

Also, I have my XBox One and Switch fairly close to each other, how can I make sure that I don't accidentally turn on my XBox as opposed to the Switch? XBox One controllers would work very similarly to the PS4 dual shock controller, I imagine.
