Just came back from the US. I hung around in a sportsbar over there and got intrigued with baseball even though I'm not really a sports person. There's not a big baseball culture where I live but this sport intrigues me somehow. I'm gonna dive in adn read up on the rules, the teams and the culture.
 
Jedi fallen order installed on my steam deck. I know what Iโ€™m playing when things get better,

Even better since I found out about this mod



I have everything for it installed and ready for when the time is right
 
Seattle is ready for FF7 Rebirth

The world is so damn depressing and upsetting someone show me something happy and/or cute please
Maybe not CUTE, exactly, but I was in the mountains and ran into this big ol' boy at the top of a pass just calmly wandering across the road (slightly blurry pic from car):

BALLER NEW FAMIBOARDS UPDATE

Famiboards now has the Nintendo Switch Profile Icons as avatar options.

Just go to your Famiboards profile, Edit Avatar, and all the options are there.

Well... almost all of them. We're still adding them all lol

Wait.
Is this why the resident @Raccoon suddenly transmogrified into the resident @pikmin?

I thought that was just a nifty Halloween transmogrification.
 

my final shitpost has arrived
 
I know the Persona anniversary ended up being fairly meh overall, and we just got SMTV last year, but maaaaaaaybe they'll do something for this, like at least announce an SMTV:A or something?

The Seattle mariners are the team to follow. Years of misery but finally turning the corner and have the young stars to follow.

Wow, very cool. Baseball is my favorite sport and there's just tons of stuff to get lost in.
 
After my Cubs broke your hearts in 2016 (sorry, not sorry) I would be super excited to see Cleveland win the World Series.
Up until 2016, I was able to say the Cubs hadn't won a World Series since the days of the Ottoman Empire, but then they went and ruined my cool history tidbit and I've never forgiven them for it.

Nintendo just quoted Lady Gaga lyrics in a Bayonetta tweet

They understood the goddamn assignment
 
And holy moly I forgot how gorgeous Yoshi's Woolly World is, absolutely stunning even all these years later.
I loooove Wooly World, it's such a gorgeous game and the visuals have a really unique cozy feel that I haven't seen in many (any?) other games. I'd love to see an upgraded Switch version someday that's based on the WiiU version but has the extras from the 3DS version (like coloring your own Yoshis).
It seems a common sentiment that there's no point in Nintendo bringing Wooly World over, but I really do wish they would (a physical cartridge, thank you very much).

I want this wooly crafted world on my Switch already.

Hey Nintendo

If you could make the next Yoshi game a fast-paced, pastel-drawn successor to the original SNES Yoshi's Island, that would be much appreciated.

Signed, a Big Fan of the Original SNES Yoshi's Island

I could go for that. It doesn't need to draw attention to its being pastel-drawn, just use that for presentation. But, basically, yes.

Nintendo heard you loud and clear. Coming 2025 - Yoshi's Coloring Book World!

Ah, one of those deals where you revitalize and bring color to the world as you progress -- a bit more direct in its artsy influence, but it's not a bad idea.
 
Iโ€™ve never fully understood how people treat insiders like theyโ€™re the Oracle of Delphi or something like that. Just because someone gets wind of some companyโ€™s plan that doesnโ€™t mean itโ€™s guaranteed to happen. Most likely it will happen eventually but thereโ€™s a near infinite number of reasons for why things might not pan out.

Itโ€™s just easier to go โ€œoh thatโ€™s interesting nodsโ€ and then move on with your life and forgot about it when leaks and rumors come up. Itโ€™s uncool to get upset with the insiders because they have absolutely 0 control of the situation. Theyโ€™re just a messenger.
I know the stories. Going to Pythia is certainly not going to end well. Perhaps it's the same here.

Sure sounds like an Oracle at Delphi situation.
Oedipus surely didn't look back after and say "That accursed Oracle made this happen to me!" but rather "[pure agony]."
 
Yup! I donโ€™t think the cart physics/conteols really support what they were going for here.
Generally my feeling about everything with that cart. It felt like something they included because it felt like they had to, but it just never felt good to me.
 
Confession time.

Staff have the ability to "edit silently", which basically just means editing a post without stamping it with "Edited by". I used to use this ability to silently my typos all the time (I know I was not the only one who did this)

It is honestly the thing I miss most about being a mod lol

This is an effective advertisement for a Moderation Recruitment Drive if I've ever seen one.

Ooh would love an SMTV:A or similar game. SMTV was my GoTY last year and there really isn't anything quite like it out there. Would love a follow up with remixed or entirely new environments and a more interesting story
 
Okay, I have to say something.

The beginning of Yakuza: Like A Dragon hit me hard with just one scene and I had to stop playing and take a breather.

People always bad mouth Pandora but she was tricked by Zeus into opening that box and she tried to close it.
Zeus really is not to be trusted.

Everyone always gets in Hades' case about that whole Persephone incident, but, really, even that was Zeus saying "no, it's totally cool, dude. You must do this."

For his bad rap, Hades is actually super chill. Maybe it comes with ruling his own realm and not being part if the shenanigans of Olympus.

In fact, his competition in the chillness department, Hestia, left Olympus because she just wanted to be chill and the other gods are just decidedly unchill.
 
Finally got around to setting up my Steam Deck dock with an Xbox controller and man, it didn't feel smooth at all. Tried some Vampire Survivors and it just felt off.

In every myth heโ€™s in, Hades is just this lonely chill professional dude. He plays by the rules but heโ€™s not personal, he doesnโ€™t want to hurt anyone. He loves his wife and thereโ€™s like zero stories of him cheating with mortals, and thereโ€™s even times heโ€™s swayed by heroes even if he keeps the conditions tight. He got the bad end of the stick but he made the best of it and he has several aspects that are rarely touched on that would have made fun stories(like his domain over all treasures under the earth).
But hey death is absolute so people donโ€™t like doing upbeat tales about the guy in charge of it

Thatโ€™s what I was worried about. I think Iโ€™ll hold off on getting one until new Nintendo hardware is around.

My continued to deep descent into the madness that is the Sonic Youtube community


oh no you found that guy

I had to put his channel on my "do not recommend" on youtube because I just couldn't take him anymore. He has multiple videos where he refers to himself as having been all-caps "cancelled" and spends like a half hour each "debunking" the "lies" of the people criticising him. That video you shared is one of several.

Yes I used a lot of quotation marks there. Yes, you can picture me using exaggerated air quotes at those points. It would be an accurate picture of my genuine reaction.

In general, I don't like the YouTube community.

Or, rather, I don't like its political culture. It's very... elitist? I'm not sure how to describe it.

In a world where many people simply don't make videos, the ones that do and usually with the most skill in videography are the ones that are usually bound to thrive and they'll get the most followers.

That means that only a small minority of people are the ones that are influencing the rest of everyone else that uses the platform.

I think in terms of politics, it can be very, err, faulty.

IMHO.

I haaate when the games are "you are about to enter the final dungeon, you won't be able to save in a while" Why??? If its long you should let me save dammit

I feel similarly about point of no return notifications. I totally get why theyโ€™re there. But they are often at a point in the story where I never feel like I can turn around to go goof off finding random crap or doing side quests. That would break my immersion.

I'm doing something... (material for a future thread).. and checking SEGA's contributions to Nintendo hardware, going by franchises (as in, IPs that got more than one game), Shenmue is the only notorious one that I noticed it lacks ANY presence on Nintendo hardware.. Heck, even Space Channel 5 got a GBA game (that I didn't know)..

Ryo was in a couple of games on Nintendo, but never realized that Shenmue was one of the last few yet to appear on Nintendo systems.. What gives? Shenmue I & II HD are feasible on Switch... even III (even if SEGA has little to do with that one) doesn't seem too much to me.

Well, Murder Nun decided to cosplay as Lady Maria (who wouldn't?) and then reached her end in the blood moon:

Now her spirit lives in the nightmare, eternally waiting for another hunter to set her free...
