Sounds like they should offer the game for free seeing as how it's just an ad to pick it up on another console...

TalkBack / Re: Bowser's Fury Revealed In New Super Mario 3D World+ Trailer
« on: January 14, 2021, 09:02:18 AM »I am curious if it is a single big level or what. It kinda seems like a playground where you are basically playing a Mario Godzilla game. Mario goes around doing little chores to earn "stars" or whatever currency you got...and a timer goes off and evil Bowser comes and you have to fend him off and then go back to work.
It also seems there may be places you can only reach during a bowser attack which is also pretty intense. Something tells me it will be a short bonus game but it looks fun.
From the extended overview, it seems it will be one big level that has Bowser coming and going. It sounds like your assumptions may be spot on.

« on: September 26, 2020, 01:36:07 PM »It's weird, I work at a major Walmart and we got no copies in at all (it's not even in our system). Maybe it depends on the area you live in. I ended up having to get it at Target.
The Walmart I got it at the employee said something about being in a different box than all the other switch games, about overlooking it several times, and some complaints about the system (I'm assuming inventory). She had just found the box and it was around 9am. I was overhearing all of this when she held up a copy for the other clerk and I saw the package and said, "I'll take one of those". Apparently I wasn't the first to ask, but the first to get a copy. As I was cashing out the clerk was going on about how rare the game was going to be for the holidays.

What is with Nintendo and NOT providing that option? I was going to pick up Luigi's Mansion until I found out it was plagued by the same issue.

Well, I got my one copy at Walmart, they had just opened the box up and had a ton (this past Friday). Target had 20+ copies.
Should I have bought them all instead of just 1, I dunno, seems like there will be a lot of copies floating around out there. I think the eBay sales are just panic buying or fake sales.
The Walmart clerk seemed certain they would be worth gold later, so maybe he'll buy them all.

When it comes to sending gifts from the catalog to friends, can you not do that if you have multiple accounts registered? When I choose "send as gift" I get the other registered residents and not my best friends or friends. Anyone else have multiple users and notice this "bug"?

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Link's Awakening - Remake, Re-release or Direct Sequel campaign?
« on: June 07, 2020, 01:37:40 AM »I've found your reaction pretty fascinating and wonder how many other first time LA players might feel the same way.
From thoughts I've seen on other forums it seems to be quite divisive. The majority opinion in my experience is praise though.
I have no doubt that if I had played it in previous releases I'd be drawn in a lot more with the nostalgia factor. I can certainly understand why classic players love it. But it's just not for me.
Pretty much the same here. Playing it for the 1st time on Switch, Link's Awakening just feels like nothing special. The puzzles and action were better in the Oracle games, and those were on the GameBoy as well (albeit the GBC).
Never played the original (never did buy the Gameboy cart), and really enjoyed the Switch port. No nostalgia other than exposure to other Zelda titles. Yes it wasn't "console grade" Zelda, but still felt polished. I never spoiled the original game, and after completing the Switch title and reading about the improvements... oh boy, I don't think I could handle the inventory management of the Gameboy version.... it sounds like a nightmare.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Tetris 99
« on: March 06, 2019, 10:04:09 PM »That happened to me last night, but once I got past the error code, I was able to play normally. The code kept popping up, however. I'm wondering if it's related to the Tetris Maximus thing, where there's an extra tracking feature on your wins for the purposes of the competition. The update came when that got announced, and the error along with it, so that makes me think they're related.
Same, the error seems benign, but keeps popping up.

Couldn't play earlier tonight due to servers being down. and it seems a patch was just released that brings the game to 1.1 (from 1.0). However, now I get an error code about data not being able to load when starting a match... anyone notice the same issue?

Nice to see buffs across the board, more or less.
Yeah, it seems Mii Brawler got a ton of buffs and I thought he was already a hard hitter (with a lot of combos for seasoned players)

I was kind of hoping that they would let some more time go buy to really see how things settle before doing that. A lot of folks complained about the newcomers being broken, but honestly none have seemed that terribly unfair. I think the unfamiliarity throws folks off.

« on: January 20, 2019, 08:44:23 PM »I mainly play with Link and can do really well with him but it'll be tough to clear 9.9 I think. Hmm, I wonder what minimum level you need to start at to get to 9.9 by the time you clear the last stage (assuming no deaths). Is it 5.0? Or can you reach 9.9 while still starting at 4.5?
The counter goes up depending on what your health percentage at the end of the fight is. If you perfect a round with 0%, it goes up an entire 1.0 points. I think if your under 50% I think it still go up 7-9 points. When I used Ganondorf I started at 5.0 and had it up to 9.9 by the second to last fight.
So I imagine you could start at 4.0 you could still get it up to 9.9 by the end. The key thing to remember is using a Smash Ticket doesn't dock your points if you continue so hopefully you have some saved for the last fight. Master Hand and Crazy Hand were insanely cheap on 9.9 and I had to use 3 tickets to complete it but since they were tickets I wasn't docked anything so I still finished at 9.9 despite dying three time in the last fight.
Good to know about the smash ticket. I always thought it was just for increased rewards, and always wondered why they were offered for continues.
I hate the Master/Crazy hand combo so I may try Link first as his boss is fairly easy to deal with (and I'm assuming there are no surprises at 9.9)
Edit: And I finished the first attempt at 9.8 after using one classic ticket on the boss with Link... unfortunately, that still impacts how much of a bonus you get from the fight and I was only at 9.6
