Oh my God you’re right! I got distracted somehow, but you can see a right red Joycon in her hands if you’re looking for it.

This has been Republican strategy for a long time. In Colorado they passed a referendum called TABOR (taxpayers’ bill of rights) which had a bunch of unrelated things in it, then immediately passed a bill saying no referendum could have more than one thing in it. This made it impossible to repeal TABOR when it…

The cross dressing in BOTW didn’t strike me as mockery. Maybe I missed some subtext. Link’s perfectly cool with it and the other characters think he looks good as a woman, IIRC.

Isn’t there some rule that butts rank higher than nipples in terms of what you can show on TV? It’s weird but I remember this coming up when they first started showing naked butts on cop shows. 

2022

Starting to think this game may actually release (but it’s Nintendo so I don’t want to get my hopes up).

That’s because the games for Essential come out at the beginning of the month, while the games for the higher two tiers come out in the middle of the month. So most game sites are doing these updates twice a month. (It doesn’t look like Kotaku ever did one for the regular May update two weeks ago, which is weird.)

I definitely felt that from the very beginning. The interface was obviously meant to be played on the TV with your handheld tablet to scroll through all the menus separately, and it would have been great. Instead forcing it to work in handheld-only mode for the Switch made the interface horribly clunky.

I finished it and enjoyed it well enough, but it did feel like a slog at some point (I remember taking a break for many months). If you ask me what I remember the most about it, it’s moving blocks around with a magic wand in the shrines and the goddamned rain. Still I preordered this one, hope springs eternal.

Sony once again demonstrating that the Premium tier is only for the most gullible morons, like me who accidentally let it renew. The PS1/PS2 collection remains pathetic and way worse than PSNow was.

Yeah, I mentioned NYC specifically because it’s the only place in the US where transit commuters are the majority, but I was surprised to find that places like Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, and San Francisco are all above 30%. Lots of Americans with good professional jobs take transit.

If you're gonna play Switch on the bus, use your damn headphones. 

People who live around New York City often have good jobs and still take buses or trains because it’s easier and faster and cheaper than driving.

Still wondering whether the maps have been substantially improved. The ones in the first game were really bad, and some people seem to say they’re just as confusing here while others say they’re better. It was the one thing I really disliked about the first game.

“First-time buyers can get it for $50 while those who already own the game on PS4 can upgrade for $10. Save data carries over as well.”

I pray to God we don’t get the books, songs, TV specials, and movie about this kid that Andy Kaufman got.

This is good advice, since that’s totally what I would do. Must get 100% in everything even after it stops being fun (doing 2018 Spiderman right now...)

Interesting, I never dug that deep. Thanks.

I’ve said it before: release a real Banjo-Kazooie game, you cowards.

How did “Not Gay Jared” get that nickname? Was it because he refused Crowder’s “totally not gay” advances too often?
