The Nintendo Switch

obra dinn is the best but you don't play it twice

I'm planning to replay it sometime to get the Captain Did It achievement

loved obra dinn
quite tricky tho

kinda love that, also kinda not sure if he's being a parody of Nintendo fans or actually is that angry

Dunkey is Josh confirmed.

I don't think he's that angry for real. Fwiw, I think his previous two videos were nothing but effusive praise for Super Mario 3D World and Bowser's Fury, the latter of which he called his presumptive game of the year, which might have actually been serious.

you seem to know an awful lot about his video history, almost as if ... Andrew is on to something lol

Almost as if I saw the latest one yesterday and thought, oh shit, I missed his last two, which were right next to it and which I watched right after, lol.

But yes, I'm also Dunkey.

japanese people must really love those japanese rpgs

They just call them "rpgs."

i think japanese people all like american games now and vice versa

that was supposed to be some sort of comedy joke but it came out just sounding defensive

i will probably play the square triangle octagon project tbrr

surely this time they will change the name...?

Seems unlikely

Triangapath Traveler

Looks enough like final fantasy tactics, possibly my fave game of all time, that I will likely buy it and perhaps not play it.

Mario 3D world has been enjoyable but not immersive fro me. I may be broken.

its not really supposed to be immersive like odyssey, its diorama style (except mauybe the new bowsers fury thing)

recommend going straight into bowsers fiery maw it rules

may do that

my favorite thing in 3D World has been to play as cat suit Peach in 1-1, run to the top of the ramp near the beginning, run and jump off of it, float and then cat-dive directly into the clear pipe, then run back and do it again. kind of an immersive experience in the sense that it makes me feel like a kid at a playground

bowsers fury is pretty cool kind of a mix between 3d world and odyssey, unusual thing to make, its a small mario game that has all the qualities of a big mario game, riding the dino is super sweet

JiC, Borderlands trilogy is half off once again

yah! the second two are $13 on PS4 right now, but I might as well get all three for $25.

i bought a much needed pro controller and i am living

my hands are filled with joy from being able to d-pad again

dammit, i need to buy a much needed pro controller too. shit's expensive though

Best battery life ever.

KM I urge you to consider the 8bitdo Sn30 Pro+ Controller it is incredible and maybe better than the Nintendo pro controller which I also have and love. And it is cheaper. Battery life has been great.

might want to hold off on that as they just announced the 8BitDo Pro 2, adds two paddle buttons and 3 switchable profiles for the same price

does the 8bitdo have gyro aim? thats a major consideration if youre planning to play like splatoon or any other shooters. otherwise yeah i've heard good things

the pro+ does, afaik the only downsides next to the pro is no scanner and no turning the console on remotely. the upside is analogue sticks that won't fall apart as fast, or hopefully never

are there tolerable third party joy-cons? mine drift and the thought of paying nintendo money to replace broken nintendo items is galling

(i know there's a replacement program i just haven't gotten my shit together to do it yet)

i'd say there are, but after a month my third party joy-con started to drift, grrrrrrrrrrr

seriously, between that and my ps4 being louder than a 747, i've been doing 99% of my recent gaming on my coputer. fuck that driftin noise

and yes, it's called my coputer, we are reversing mitosis

the replacement program is pretty easy and painless, I sent each of my joy-cons in (months apart) and each time got it back from Nintendo in like 2 weeks, no charge

ugh i should just get it together and do it. our post office is a hell of a walk away so i've put it off for *checks watch* a year

Townscaper coming this summer

Hm!

people who like monster hunter really like monster hunter, i would not get too caught up by hyperbole like that url

ugh i should just get it together and do it. our post office is a hell of a walk away so i've put it off for *checks watch* a year

Just so you know it's not USPS, it's a pre-paid UPS label

Wondering if it's worth trying to get a Monster Hunter Rise Pro Controller, keep it sealed and see if it's worth anything in a year or two...

vs buying gamestonks

You see me dawg

I skipped MH World due to being burned out after MH4 and Generations, so am excited to explore all the QoL improvements and stuff to do in Rise. not sure how I feel about numbers popping up when you attack tho.

also have always been a dual blades player so want to try another weapon this time, suggestions welcome.

decided to learn how to monhun

this game looks really nice for a switch game, best environment design i've seen on the platform since xenoblade 2 and it's probably a step up from that

i'm leaning toward dual blades but haven't tried everything yet

Oooh
