Yeah, this one has definitely been made easier for casual audiences. The previous games have a higher difficulty and if you enjoy the general gameplay loop I highly recommend checking them out. (2 especially)

 

I’m about 5 hours in. I’ve 100%’d the opening stage and I just completed my first night mission. I’m loving it so far but have forced myself to take a break. It’s been 10 years since Pikmin 3. I really need to savor this.

Can’t pick a favorite. But I will say the one I return to the most often is Super Metroid

Would you say my opinion is… unpopular?

 

Something about the texture paired with the added salt makes them a superior topping. However I’ll admit it’s the only scenario in which canned mushrooms are better than fresh.

I had to unfollow ”politics” because it took over my entire homepage. It’s a bummer because the I like seeing the occasional political post. I’m guessing they drive more engagement and that’s why they’re so ”loud”.

Actually one of the best theater experiences I ever had was just recently… when I was the only one in the the theater.

Yes, people have become insufferable with their phones. I’m not shy about going right up to people and telling them to put it away. Out of the last 5 movies I’ve been to, I’ve probably had to do that 3 or 4 times. That’s ridiculous, yes, but luckily I’ve found they don’t check it again after being spoken to.

When I saw Across the Spider-verse some young guy one seat over just pulled out his phone and started scrolling. That was infuriating. I was the most frank with him. “Dude. Put your fucking phone away and watch the movie.”

This was a brilliant idea my wife had. She sewed this little cloth sleeve to slide over it to prevent screen scratches.

They did a good job with Wii U’s latency. The only thing that was shit was its range, which wouldn’t be a big deal because you’d only want to stream to the TV if you were in the same room as it. Ideally it’d be a dock that you can physically put the console in or stream to it.

I do love me some unique hardware experiences, but I hate that it’s inherently difficult to port them. There are a lot of wonderful games that have been stranded on consoles like the DS, 3DS, Wii, and Wii U.

That’d be amazing, like a reverse Wii U

…On the bottom. One on the top that can work in tandem with some sort of sensor bar would have to be squeezed in above the R and ZR buttons.

This is a weird one, but I’d love to see a reimplementation of the sensor bar. The gyro controls haven’t cut it for me. I like how the Wii U game pad had the sensor bar built in to the bezel. The real engineering nightmare would be squeezing IR cameras into the top of the Joycon

 

Here’s a size comparison for the sets. Obviously the original is more impressive, but it’s retired and SO expensive on the secondary market. It’s pretty remarkable that you can have an ‘89 Batmobile for a fraction of the cost, just by using the pieces from 42127.

This move is inspired. I would love to see Deadpool 3 as a send off to the Fox Marvel movies of the early 2000s. Bring back Affleck as Daredevil, Favreau as Foggy, the OG Fantastic Four with Evans as Johnny Storm, and heck- since Universal no longer has the Hulk rights, bring back Bana as Ang Lee’s Hulk!

 

I think I would've preferred to have Wolverine's cowl...
