I think there’s something to the sitting idle angle. My launch joycons started getting drift 4-5 years ago. I did the usual clean out, then cut some plastic to put more pressure on the stick back plate and they were surprisingly fine. Two years ago I picked up an OLED, and my primary switch got very little handheld use after that.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago, when I grabbed my launch switch to upgrade the firmware and run some tests. The sticks were basically unusable. I have a couple sets of Hall effect sticks laying around, I guess now is as good a time as any to put them to use.

I grew up constantly surrounded by the latter and knew when I smelled the former that the adults were about to act like idiots. I think I’d rather lose my sense of smell than have to endure either consistently.

Yeah, blaming this on Nintendo is just rage bait.

So, par for the course.

Any word on if cross-platform multiplayer will be supported? Would love to play with my nephew but he’s a PlayStation kind of guy.

That was absolutely beautiful.

I love Nightwish, and this is a great cover.

Many moons ago, I was in an IRC room when power metal came up. Someone started talking about Elvenpath, so I went and looked up the band. “Huh, this is pretty good.” So the first three albums went into my rotation. Then a few years later I saw a music video someone put together using 10th Man Down and footage from 08th MS Team and was freakin floored.

Edit: just posted the video over in !gundam@possumpat.io if anyone is interested

Aren’t we all, though?

It is, just checked. I’m gonna need to give it a spin before buying. Not sure if the close 3rd person camera is going to trigger my motion sickness or not. 😒

a salad is feminine while steak is masculine?

When has a 90s cartoon ever been wrong?

If only AI summaries were half as good as this.

And if you’re a bot… fucking bravo.

Engage was pretty fun.

Really surprised that it tallied more than TotK. But then again I do have a tendency to leave games on pause while scrolling/choresing/nodding off on the couch because I’m old.
