Whoa, whoa, don't go posting slash fiction in here.

I'll try to refrain

Man, Tempest is such a dope fucking arcade game. One of the best ever. I'd love to have a cabinet of it but it's unfortunately notorious for being one of the most finicky cabinets ever.

boy if Will Smith is actually on tomorrow's Beastcast

Can't wait

 

[Mister Negative]

I wonder why the framerates in the Switch trailer looked so awful

Like, worse than 30 awful. I'd rather see fake smooth gameplay than that.

That said, I think the switch is cool and the chance of playing splatoon without that fucking awful wii u tablet is exciting enough for me to consider one. don't really care about the portability. just need the controller to not feel awful.

I haven't watched it since this morning on my phone, but I don't remember any terrible framerate. Are you confusing Zelda's bullet time archery for poor framerate? Because I've seen that complaint.

I was told Zelda's bow bullet time looks like that.

I hope it's not like that in the final game, I've never heard of bad framerate slo-mo.

Yeah, upon a rewatch I guess it looks okay. Breath of the Wild definitely looking choppy though.

The one who rose to the top and earned their @willsmith twitter handle

 

[kuppy]

I wish Giant Bomb would more proactively get out on big news days like this.

It seems so weird to go to their site and have a small article about the Switch and nothing else.

Yup.

For the Xbox One DRM stuff for example they did two videos:
XBox One DRM Breakdown
XBox One DRM Policy Update Reaction huh

It's almost like not having a "news guy" is detrimental.

 

[Salarians]

That Zelda looks nice.

 

[Jintor]

The only thing I'm iffy on with the switch really is battery life. The 3ds is already horrendous - what is a half-home system going to be like?

 

[The Dear Leader]

I'm iffy about a 720p screen on a device releasing in the year of our lord two thousand and seventeen.

 

[Jintor]

I can't decide if "Ninty" or "The Big N" annoys me more.

I thought about it and I'm pretty sure the only reason I call them that is the Aussie desire to shorten the hell out of everything

 

[LurkerPrime]

I'm not iffy at all towards Switch.

The only question in my mind is: will Persona 5 grace the platform?

 

[Jintor]

I did see atlus on that slide going around but who knows what that means

 

[Data West]

Switch just makes me think of that Will Smith song

 

[jgminto]

I can play the new Ninty Switch when I'm eating at Maccas.

 

[Jintor]

Pokemon s & m
Nintendo switch

Can't wait for Metroid sub or f-zero top

 

[LurkerPrime]

That collage with all the devs supporting Switch? That's the reason I'm curious.


Although another reason I like the concept of Switch is that I'll finally get to play all of those handheld titles I couldn't bear to play on said handhelds. There's Pokemon, Fire Emblem, etc. It's a dream come true!

What other words do Australians inexplicably shorten?

From IGN:
"We’re excited to be supporting the Nintendo Switch and believe the games we publish are a perfect fit for the portable nature of the console." - Atlus representative

Take that as you will.

G'day, footy, cuppa, maccas, arvo, biccy, devo, servo, bottle-o, postie, garbo, barbie, aggro, beut, bikey, smoko, ciggie, derro, mozzie, preggers, sickie, super (for superannuation), woolies

When does Nintendo start a Switch Internet Time?

When does Nintendo start a Switch Internet Time?

The current time in Nintendo Land is 260 Elite Beats

 

[Lunar FC]

Thought about the Switch all day at work. I need it bad guys.

 

[chogidogs]

So I've been craving a modern open-world game since they played Mafia 3. But since I can't justify buying that game full price I decided to check my backlog.

Watch Dogs! Surprisingly solid so far. Plus there's still a bunch of people playing online. I'm actually enjoying Assassin's Creed-esque Multi-player. Feels very satisfying fooling a dude you are AI.

People should bring back that mechanic.

[BlackGhost]

lol I feel like Nintendo left me so thirsty. I want to know more about the games and console -_-

 

[Twin Tails]

Brad home stream that is what is going on

 

[Bowlie]

edit: his Recore stream also was on yt, TT

 

[Twin Tails]

Brad has already forgotten being told that the courier is at the cafe.

 

[Ashby]

Pretty cool of Brad to be doing this on his own time!

 

[Maiorum]

Did he say why they didn't do it on the site?

 

[Twin Tails]

wow already

[Bowlie]

thanks, Brad

oh okay, you'll keep playing. sweet

 

[chrominance]

I've never played Hitman before. I assume it's not always this incomprehensible and baffling?

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Well that went swimmingly.

 

[Maiorum]

It's an elusive target, so the game gives you no information apart from the briefing video at the start. Normally, you can set how easy/hard you want the missions to be- objective markers, hitman vision, etc.

 

[dannyglover]

I restarted this elusive target 4 times before beating it, which is against the spirit of Brad live streaming it.

 

[alr1ght]

Are they ever going to release all the episodes on a disc with no always online DRM?

 

[Tubobutts]

Are they ever going to release all the episodes on a disc with no always online DRM?

Yes to disc with all episodes. I doubt they'll remove the always online stuff.

I wonder if I'd be any good at this game. It seems like every time Brad opens a door, he's somehow committed a crime that is immediately noticed. I guess this is based on the whole Hitman Absolution thing where taking someone's uniform makes you invisible except to other people wearing the same uniform, who immediately mark you as a fraud?

(I have never played a Hitman game)
