it's microSD, same as what most smartphones etc use for memory expansion. theres lots of counterfeit/dud microSD cards out there so only buy from a major brand/retailer like samsung or sandisk, don't try to save a few bucks with a weird one

i have a 128gb which is more than enough space to hold a bunch of indie & nintendo games, they're probably like 25 bucks these days

i picked up a 400 gb card on a recent sale, thank god

They are also speed rated so spend a couple more bucks to get a fast one.

Yeah that's what I read, to look for a high transfer rate to improve performance

mine’s 100mb/s and seems like enough

speed will mostly just translate to slightly faster loading times

Is that news, or only that it is coming to Switch? They had at least said it would hit other consoles in 2020, right?
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 16:14 (four years ago) link
switch version is new news
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 16:16 (four years ago) link
great news - my preferred console for indie games

will buy
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 20:37 (four years ago) link
Hmm.. I'm inherently skeptical of any game with that much tiny text playing well on a console tbh

i fear the baseball homunculi
― ciderpress, Friday, 10 April 2020 19:55 (four years ago) link
to be clear, in y'alls opinion: if i don't give a shit about baseball, i will like this series?
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 10 April 2020 19:58 (four years ago) link
no?
― na (NA), Friday, 10 April 2020 19:59 (four years ago) link
okay, i thought this was one of those where the gameplay trumps the genre
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:00 (four years ago) link
I don't give a shit about baseball but SMB owns. I imagine if I gave a shit about baseball it would own^2
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:00 (four years ago) link
good enough for me; downloading the smb2 demo
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:02 (four years ago) link
baseball has such a specific and constrained game space that you can't really make baseball gameplay that appeals to someone who doesn't like baseball
if you're saying you don't care about watching pro baseball then that's another matter
― ciderpress, Friday, 10 April 2020 20:03 (four years ago) link
I've never watched or played baseball, and didn't really understand the rules (never mind the nuances) until I played SMB... I still find it heaps of fun and it became more fun the more I learned about the nuances of the game so I guess to that extent it maybe means I'm 'into baseball'?

I like cricket
they should make super mega cricket

i was more of a smb1 guy but 2 is also good
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:08 (four years ago) link
personally i don't think someone who doesn't like baseball would like super mega baseball, but that's just me. it does have some cartoony/arcade-like aspects, but it doesn't go so far to change the game as, say, NFL Blitz or NBA Jam did
― let me be your friend on the other end! (Karl Malone), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:11 (four years ago) link
i'd say so, especially if you like cricket!
if baseball ever starts up again, mosey on over to the ILBaseball board. the team to root for is definitely the st louis cardinals - JOIN US

no thanks I don't like baseball
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:12 (four years ago) link
The hitting mechanic is relatively simple but different from any other baseball game I've played. It's like when you find a really good fishing game in an RPG. I could see it having some non-baseball appeal based on the fun of the basic mechanics.

ya I like thwacking it
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:15 (four years ago) link
I contemplated buying 2 on Switch already at some point but I'm waiting for 3 now.
― silby, Friday, 10 April 2020 20:24 (four years ago) link
i think i may have bought 2 and never played it now that you mention it
― ciderpress, Friday, 10 April 2020 20:30 (four years ago) link
i love baseball but i have yet to love a baseball video game. SMB2 is pretty good. i'm not crazy about the art style and i haven't found the right difficulty level to make it challenging but fun yet, but the gameplay is solid.
― na (NA), Friday, 10 April 2020 20:46 (four years ago) link
I don't give a shit about baseball but really liked that weird 3DS game with the dog that sells you cartridges for your Nontendo 4DS, but you could haggle with him to make them cheaper? now that I write this out it sounds more like a fever dream. anyway there was one in particular that was a baseball umpire simulator that I got obsessed with.

got slay the spire in the UK sale
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Sunday, 12 April 2020 20:39 (four years ago) link
I bought the Witcher 3. I played twenty minutes of it. It’s gory and um grimdark. Does it lighten up or did I spend $59 to be in a grumpy mood for eight million hours?
― rb (soda), Sunday, 12 April 2020 21:06 (four years ago) link
it alternates between zany and grim and gritty but it's best to take everything from the word go with an industrial salt lick

yeah the whole concept of the witcher is fantasy noir. its got a very deadpan humor to a lot of it though
