PS5 and White OLED looked perfect together. Especially when you pair the Smash Pro controller with the OLED.

We need pictures. For me the OLED Switch looks completely different since the OG Switch LED screen was grey. The OLED looks all black. I’m thinking of switching to all black and white now for my controllers.

they literally always have been and I don’t understand why people think they haven’t

like my massive massive gripes with them aside, the serializing of film at a scale previously unseen as their core accomplishment seems to have retroactively made people think MCU canon has been quality the entire time

I fervently fuckin’ disagree with that notion

I'm an MCU fan and even I don't think it's been quality the entire time.
So I guess I'm saying I.. uh, agree.. with your disagreement?

Today I learned its possible to sent save data to game developers from the switch. I reported a bug for Atelier Sophie 2 and had to send the save to KT

And same here. I’m an MCU fan as well, love the books, like the movies, characters and what not; however the MCU has always been a mixed bag. I mean you have stinkers/mediocre ones like the first two Thor movies, Iron Man 2, Age of Ultron, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Black Widow (sorry Florence I do love you in the movie) and Eternals. In terms of the shows I enjoy them, but only Hawkeye and Loki are the real standouts imo.

Honestly, as someone who also has experience with the Marvel books, I kind of approach the MCU like I do with the comics. The comics can be very dumb at times, but there are also examples of storylines that hit it out of the park. I mean I raised my eyebrows when they were doing Eternals. I mean cosmic Marvel is cool, but in terms of the books it’s really really weird. In that respect the movie is faithful to the comics, but it’s also its greatest weakness.
 
been going through my backlog. it's been a lot of ps vita, nsw, and wii u since the start of 2021. down to about 34 games but they're all generally long ones, except for a few. so after a really lengthy rpg, i'm breaking it up with odama.

except the gamecube, which i had since launch, didn't work. it turned on, and the disc would spin, but the laser wouldn't read the disc. for sentimental reasons... i didn't go out and get a new gamecube. instead i did some gamecube surgery and tripled the laser strength. it's now barely in working order and i may have to eventually replace the laser entirely, but i got some odama time in. the last time i played it was at e3 in 2004 when it still had bongo controls. up until i got it as a gift a couple years ago, i didn't know they changed it to/added the microphone.

If you still have a Wii, you could have just used that.

What is PROJECT-TRITRI?

A revival of 90s era RPG classics for the modern age. Nostalgic and moving for the adults today who were children back then, and straight fun for the children of today, playable by yourself or with everyone.

it died a little while after i gave it away (because my wii u became my wii and the gamecube had the gba player).

beyond that, i had a special-er connection to the gamecube. my dad camped out with me on launch night (he briefly left me on my own but came back a few hours into the line-waiting when he probably thought better about leaving his cellphone-less, car-less teenage son miles away from home with hundreds of dollars of cash in his wallet).

that night was rad though. a rare gaming-memory bonding experience with dad. it wasn't really about the gaming system either. it was just us kinda hanging out all night.
 
Hopefully we'll get another trailer for FEW 3 Hopes today!

I've got a gut feeling they'll show the Golden Deer class next, and keep Black Eagles for last. 🤔

But I don't really care about the order, I just wanna see the new looks!
 
So I'm slowly advancing with EarthBound and yesterday I
beat mondo mole and got stuck because I didn't know how to rescue Paula, so I guess that's a thing you can do somehow. Now I've got an underleveled Paula with me \o/

I'm really enjoying it so far. The music is great.

Yikes, you weren't kidding. Seems like the game will contain a lot of grinding.

I do like it though.

Oh yeah, I can get through the first one, no problem (even though it gets pretty nuts toward the end.) But both times I got to the second one, I fell off. Maybe I’ll get back to it sooner this time but I’m mostly hoping they announce a remake soon. (Last time I emulated the first two on my Xbox Series X. They worked really well aside from a dead zone issue related to using anything other than the original DualShock 2.)

Beat me by a minute was just about to post this! I believe in 咚奇刚!!!!
Edit: Meaning I think it's absolutely a new translation, don't know what else Dong Qigang would be.
Double Edit oopsie: Someone in the comments on weibo raises a good point I feel, saying it might be used for the movie. Don't know if they've officially had material for the movie talking about Donkey Kong in Chinese yet.

I don't really think the issue with the MCU is about quality or consistency in a strict sense but rather, uh, "digestibility", I guess?

Phase 3 had a rather high average Rotten Score of 89 with a comparatively narrow range. This is of course a very smooth brained way too look at movies or art in general and it's not really reflective of the quality of those movies. But I think it shows that they managed to hit a base level where a high amount of people were pleased or at least ok with watching them (thus digestibility). It was also 11 movies spread over 4 years.

Phase 4 has both a lower average, more divisive movies and also, perhaps most importantly, much more content overall. After the Covid-break they've put out 5 movies (soon to be 7) and 6 tv shows (soon to be 8) in the span of 2 years. We just got Moon Knight and Dr. Strange, in three weeks Ms Marvel will air and before that's even finished you'll be able to watch Thor in the cinema. Don't worry though, you'll have an entire month to get ready for She-Hulk.

The biggest strength of the MCU has always been that they delivered enough crowd pleasers at a decent rhythm. Every movie was its little event building up to a larger event. You'd go to the cinema 2-3 times a year, enjoy the characters and narrative hooks and wonder what they'd use in the next one. There was also this very loose overarching narrative leading to the Avengers squaring up against Thanos. They struck a nice balance where the average viewer had to invest comparatively little to get something out of the serialized storytelling.

Now everything is completely out of whack. It feels like there's barely a moment where there isn't anything new Marvel to watch. Before if you missed, say, Ant-Man & the Wasp you could quickly catch up before Endgame. Good luck with that in the Disney+ era: Even a 6 episode miniseries is as long as two Marvel movies. It's difficult to justify this kind of commitment regardless of its quality.

All that said: I think it's a bit silly to tear apart the first She-Hulk trailer for its CG when it won't release for another 3 months and probably still not entirely finished.

But all that said: It's always cool to tear into Disney.
 
Hello guys, it’s been a while \o/
What did I miss? There are some new rumors about an upcoming direct in June? 👀
(I just want a new FE tbh)

Raita Kazama is an amazing artist. His Twitter is so good!
 
Amadeus said:
still fascinating to me that a team who worked on a Nintendo exclusive game is releasing its next game on every platform but the switch.. and it's even more fascinating when the game is looking graphically on par with their previous work.... yeah I'm talking to you Atlus and Soul Hackers 2!!
Click to expand...
Unless its been brought up before I tend to forget Soul Hackers 2 is coming out soon and it's not a willful ignorance like when 13 Sentinels was a PS4-only title.

"Project TRITRI"

Triangle Strategy:

"Alright, look. I have this idea for a new game. We're gonna call it Project-Tri."
"Tri?"
"Tri."
"Tri, what?"
"What do you mean, Tri what?"
"Triangle?"
"What? No. Are you nuts?"
"Alright, then what? Triceratops? Triathlon? Trigonometry? Tri what?"
"Tri."
"Motherfucker, what does that even—"
"TriTri."

Looks really like a nice blend. I thought the Smash Controller is pure white like the PS5. I already have 4 white Joy Con, the white is a off white, and I bought some 3rd party white handles for my Pro Controllers, but the look too different.

The Smash Pro Controller looks pretty good with the OLED and PS5.

Older LoK games did not age well enough, so maybe they might go for full remake for those. Except for Defiance, the latest game in the series, still looks decent enough. That might get a simple HD remaster.

Interesting info: the first game in the series, a top down action RPG, was made by Silicon Knights, makers of Eternal Darkness. I'll find it hilarious if that game comes to Switch before Eternal Darkness.

Yeah this is what I’ve been saying. I just don’t get this MCU puppy mill these days.

I remember seeing Iron Man 1 when it came out, and thinking this is really awesome! Cut 10 years later, and I’m just…. Ugh. Enough!

Although when I was a kid I always did have a thing for She Hulk….

Tomb Raider, Deus Ex's New Owners Are Going To Milk Them For All They're Worth

Hope you like new games and old games, because you're probably getting both

This is funny because I don't think anyone was expecting anything else

You're telling me they bought the IPs to make games out of them and make money? Huge, if true.

Very soon Switch owners will get an onslaught of Tomb Raider, Deus Ex and Thief games.

Too bad other Eidos franchises were not a part of the sale. So no Kane & Lynch and Just Cause for us.
Click to expand...
I don't think I'll miss Kane&Lynch but Jause Cause 2 was an immensely fun time-waster.

Also, i'd be up for remasters (the nightdive kind) of the OG Thief games.
