Dunno how they handle it in the Switch version, but in the DS version, pins need a specific type of PP to be the majority to evolve. If you have the wrong type, the pin won't evolve. (Sometime's you'll want to do this, since in some cases, evolution isn't always a good thing.) Not only that, but certain PP types have weight to them, meaning that 1 point of it is worth like 9 times as much as 1 point of another type of PP. Though I'm just going off of the DS version here, so I don't know if this is all the same for Switch. The system is likely similar anyway.

What the gently caress is wrong with the people at Nintendo!?

Bongo Bill posted:I think an earlier Game & Watch Gallery altered the graphics for that minigame in the North American release. There's no reason to expect that change won't be made again, because if it was obviously correct back then it's even more obviously correct now. However, "Nintendo" isn't a monolithic entity, so the people working on Smash most likely researched the original release and not the localized versions of later releases, and were unaware of the change. Managing changes for prerelease showings if games still in development is very complicated. It wasn't just a change made in the localized version. That version of that game changed it in all regions so the enemies were generic bandits instead of Native Americans. Al Borland Corpse posted:It's possible it already is and most footage we saw is from the Japanese version Ah, changing it for some regions and leaving in the racism for others will totally fix the problem, yes.

DoctorWhat posted:There are tons of people who will choose motion or otherwise nontraditional control methods. Kid Icarus Uprising's much-maligned controls were essentially the 3DS's best option for that sort of game and were fantastically implemented; Splatoon 2 and BOTW's gyro aiming is immaculate. Analog controls in console shooters tend to be fine. (Although yes, stuff like mouse controls are still king.) Splatoon's implementation of them is just horrible. They have so many dead zones and the camera is way too sensitive. Even by console shooter standards, Splatoon's stick controls are really bad. Motion is definitely an improvement, but it wouldn't be that much of a step up if they took the effort to actually make the analog controls good. But at least the option to play without motion is there. Which is honestly just a pretty baffling thing for Nintendo to be leaving out in their other games. Yeah in a select few cases, there really isn't much of a replacement for motion, but in a lot of other cases, they can easily be translated into an input of some kind. Which just makes it a very needless barrier for people that can't even use them in the first place. It's really baffling in Let's Go's case, given that there's an alternate control scheme the game has for capturing that the game won't let you use in docked mode.

Mokinokaro posted:The campaign is decently meaty and there's a DLC that is purely single player challenge missions (with some cosmetic unlocks that carry over into MP.) While Octo Expansion is good, you are essentially paying $80 for some short single player campaigns. As fun as it is, it is not worth that cost if you aren't even considering touching online (which would bring that cost up to $100+ if you're getting the annual plan.)

It's still really dumb, but it's a lot less bad than it used to be, since while it's not open 24/7, it's open for a lot longer and there's less downtime compared to launch where it was super easy to miss sessions.

Circle Nine posted:I for the life of me cannot find a control method I like in Splatoon 2 which is making it really unfun and frustrating when I keep getting slatted by people who are loads better than me in whatever the main online mode is called. Does anyone have any tips or am I just going to keep bouncing off this until either I give up or it just clicks? Try playing the campaign to get a feel for the controls and settings you like. It's meant to be the tutorial mode to ease players in for online and to get used to the general gameplay and mechanics. (The base campaign, not Octo Expansion if you have it.)

Bottom Liner posted:I mean I haven’t played a console shooter since Halo 2 but yikes. Game looks amazing but sticks suck and the motion controls are a pseudo hybrid where you still have to use dual sticks for broad movement and the motion for finer aiming and ugh That is in fact how you are supposed to use motion controls. Sure they're no mouse and keyboard, but it's a huge step up from just sticks. Allows for a greater sense of fine tuning in console shooters.

There's a time and place for short term gains, but that's typically if there's no long term to go after in the first place. Though people saying that being slightly short of "mega success" means failure is just moronic. It's not like Nintendo needs the absolute best results just to survive at the moment.

Well they definitely made the bosses not instantly die to 4 players this time (unless you opt to set Whispy on fire again, in which case never mind.) And got rid of a ton of blind spots that were in some of their attacks before.

Hal knows how to be rough when they want to be. The final boss fight of Heroes in Another Dimension is loving chaos. Makes me wonder what a game from them would be like when they stop holding back. EDIT: Holy poo poo they actually made it so that some of the bosses' attacks go through your invincibility frames. Guess they finally decided to cut down on that sort of abuse.

Soul Melter EX is loving brutal. The last string of bosses are easily the toughest in the entire series. Instead of giving you 6 tiny tomatoes, they give you 2 tiny tomatoes, 2 Pep Brews, and 2 Maxim Tomatoes. You'll need them! If you ever wanted to see what happens when HAL takes the kid gloves off, you'll get it!

Imo this applies doubly to Smash, where you have to disable like 1/3 of the mechanics for tournament play This goes for a lot of multiplayer stuff. If you're not interested in playing competitively, there's no need to concern yourself with all the hubbub up there. Just play how you want.

KingSlime posted:If you really want to give them the benefit of the doubt, you could construe that the black villager character was an attempt to get the general color pallette/tone between the spirit and the fighter match as closely as possible Apparently the Villager used in that fight had his skintone changed to black in a later build. So that one might have been an oversight. But the other cases? Totally malice. One case of this (Mr. Game and Watch's old feather, which got patched out.) could be argued as "ignorance", but multiple cases is just malice. And considering that this was a boss that in a game that Sakurai directed:  I really don't think benefit of the doubt is something people can afford to give.

The WiiU itself wasn't that great either. It might've had "good games" but it didn't really have games that people actually wanted to play. The console was just a massive failure all around. Very bad initial momentum, and it was just basically dead in the water after that.
