And that’s the rub, isn’t it? Very few people bought a Wii U, so games like Mario Kart 8 and Zelda:BotW get a second shot at exposure on the new hardware. BotW was the killer app I had waited for before buying a Wii U, and now I get to enjoy it both on TV and on the go. I also finally get to own MK8 after years of…

It’s weird enough that it’s turned on by default. I can’t imagine anyone familiar with Mario Kart will actually want that.

Perspective for those chasing waterfalls.

I find it deeply disturbing how much people in games turn a blind eye to the reality of the newfound prominence of gambling methodology in games. More than anything, microtransactions make me uncomfortable because of that.

Because of this, and because of the fact that pulling for top characters can be really expensive and after spending a fortune you can still get nothing, some of the top posts in the FEH Reddit are serious discussions of gambling addiction and links to Suicide Prevention hotlines.

You can turn off Smart Steering (and Auto Boost) on the Kart select screen. The Pause menu isn’t the only time you can change that. :)

Hope I’m not too late to the party...

Hear no WW2

The police waste all their time on things like this, meanwhile the Tunnel Snakes are still running wild, terrorizing the public with their aggressive and provocative dance moves.

Because I am a cultured individual that HAS seen Tremors (and 2, and 3, and the series...), I knew to just throw a bomb out from my bastion on the rock and he’d go for the bomb, swallow it, and then I could detonate it! There was no rain of entrails, but the tactic more or less translated.

I’m actually 100% on Atlus’ side on this one. You spend years of hard work and buckets of money on creating a game, and then some chump with a you tube channel makes money our of it without your permission, and threatens to not only ruin the game for your actual fans by posting spoilers, but also harm the game’s sales…

1) What is even the point of the PS4 having a Sharing function if the developers seemingly block out the ability to use it for the entire game/for sections of the story? There have been many games that have this capability rendered useless.

And whether we have the patience for this shit now that we’re not kids with endless free time.

Given chameleons are lizards, I’m not sure the difference is as big as you think it is.

My version of that is:

Take it from someone who hasn’t had a 9-year-old for twelve years - don’t make a habit of lying to your kid about stuff. Suck it up and tell him you don’t want to take him to this movie, or suck it up and sit through it, because two things I’ve learned are that 1) kids grow up fast and someday you’ll wish you had a…

I agree.

Funniest moment in the game thus far, getting THE shield. The big one. You open the chest, it give you the classic Zelda “AH AH AH AAAAAAAAH” (which isn’t heard often in this particular Zelda), the game text tells us: “Yup! This is THE shield. This is what you were looking for!” it’s a big moment, we just went through…

weapon/shield should be in one quick menu with two rows, as should bow/arrow. That would free up a d-pad button for consumables.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who got the Yooka-Laylee reference. Has no one played Donkey Kong 64 here?
