Good ideas buried under hours and hours of bloat.

SS made Link a righty to better align with how most people are right handed. They really should have let you choose.

Nintendo’s gonna make 15 of them!

Tried 3DW co-op over the weekend (online, not local) and it was WILD. Nintendo internet issues and resulting lag aside, it’s like the levels were intentionally made to not be co-op, which is the perfect recipe for hilarity. Steering Plessie with four people? Madness. All scrambling to get powerups? Insanity. Captain…

I’ve been having the same bug! It showed up outta nowhere, yup, probably a month ago. Talk about immersion breaking, geez.

As someone who hates tower defense games, I 100% skipped that feature in Revelations. The menus were more fun.

What? You didn’t like having a bazillion Supplies but only three Raw Materials?! You actually wanted to get more of these super rare but apparently essential Raw Materials at a faster rate?

The stacking stones are a neat idea but they’re like one technological generation too early. These puzzles are begging to be done in immersive VR. The fact that you can’t move the stone in every axis from any given view is the problem: you don’t have full control over the stone—nor can you see all of it at once—and…

Ok, this is cool, as I’ve often asked this question myself. Now there’s an answer! And it all makes sense. I’m a big scotch guy, specifically Islay, and that’s all about locally grown grain and locally harvested peat using local water and aged locally. Hence, it’s uniquely an Islay product.

> This presents an odd situation. Generally, Amiibo offer minor bonuses—stuff like costumes or items—rather than significant gameplay benefits. In this case, the Amiibo offers a pretty major boon.

I did not know this. Thanks!
