You are quite welcome.

The demo they released is specifically for that Splatfest. They’re basically taking the “Test Shot” demo and turning it into an actual Splatfest. Probably a good way from them to test the load on their servers as well.

Not surprising. Both of those characters came from asking a good friend of mine for ideas on something to play that was different from my usual. So they were meant to be weird.

Neat! I’ve played Kingmaker (the table top version obviously) a couple times and it’s a fun setting and the kingdom building part of the setting can really lend it self to a video game.

“If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population”

Same here. If it it has the “See more comments” box, no amount of clicking will get it to work.

Anyone else getting the problem where the “Show more comments” box is not working? I click on it and nothing happens leaving me with only the first few lines of only the first comment.

Joking aside, it’s not too much of a leap. The last time they made a big deal about a controller being wired into the system was for the GCN WiiU controllers, which were only usable for Smash.

Which would mean Smash 4 on the Switch?

That was my thought. I had only played through the first one and part of the second, but I remember having fun with them.

Thanks for the explanation! I’ll have to check this series out.

I...I have so many questions....

Ha! As a designer/artist (and slightly crazy which I guess comes with the job) I could totally see my self going that far for the “realism” of the final piece.

Heck, why stop there? Get some label stock, make a Gamestop (or video game retailer or your choice) price sticker and then peel it of poorly your self. For added realism you could print off several with different prices and layer them on top of one another.

As a Graphic Artist, it think you did an amazing job. Not to mention the entire idea is very thoughtful. Hopefully your brother-in-law appreciate the hard work you put into this.

As a Graphic Artist, I find this kind of project neat. From a “technical” standpoint you have to get your self in the mindset of the packaging designers for games and duplicate how they would lay things out and make it feel real.
I’ve done similar projects for fun my self.

I think part of this argument goes toward things like the markings and stickers that some rental shops would put on their games. To some that provides a level of “provenance” to the piece. It shows where it came from. To some people that matters, to other’s it’s an eyesore.

Of course it was the left Joycon that broke...

Which is why I said I’ll just mow the lawn and enjoy some time outside with my headphones.

Yeah...if I refuse to mow my lawn my HOA will eventually fine me and make it so that trash pick ups stop for me. So I’m going to keep mowing my lawn if it’s all the same to you.
