They should do Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 and 3 for the NES.

Dan is better at Contra than Vinny.

 

[Wunder]

Yep. That's how it should have ended. They're showing obvious improvements, though. I expect the next time is the run.

They still have two levels to go though, unless you meant that next time they'd beat that stage. I think they have the first 4 levels pretty down pat but the snow and energy zone will always be precarious and could easily cost them a continue on the way to 7 and 8.

 

[Xater]

Yeah I know people who call it the best controller of the current generation or even ever and Jeff basically said it's shit. What is it? I've never used one.

It's a really good controller. I played hundreds of hours of Monster Hunter with it. Jeff is just a crazy person when it comes to this thing.

 

[Death Metalist]

That ended perfectly.

 

[Chuck]

I tuned in late, how far were they?

Pro controller is really good. Not as good as Xbox One Elite, but a bit better than the DualShock 4. We are really living in the golden age of the controller, though, they're all great.

The WiiU Pro controller's right stick is above the buttons. It's above the buttons.

What were they thinking? Glad they came to their senses with the Switch.

Sticks in the wrong position.
I tried playing Blops 2 with it, and just couldn't figure it out.
I never realized how important having a stick below buttons was until that.

Preach it, brother!

yup

edit: not too long ago, someone complained that the video player was not offering the "fill browser" option anymore. I just saw that it's been added, alongside "embiggen".

Spoiler

They got to (what I assume is) the boss of that level with the flame things. They lost twice to him. On their final run, they just messed up spectacularly and were unable to reach the boss for a third time.

Jeff is super wrong about things sometimes, like EDF for example. It's an awesome controller, I prefer its stick placement over the DS4 but maybe not over the Xbox setup. Buttons and d-pad are great. I'd use it on PC if it wasn't a pain in the ass to do so.

Also an 80+ hour battery might not be a big selling point for some people but when you use it to play a Monster Hunter game it's essential.

 

[TheMadMan007]

It's the best controller for the Wii U. It's the worst controller for the 3 platforms. I finding it just not as good as a Xbox One controller, or a PS4 controller. But for the Wii U its hands down better than the gamepad.

 

[popo]

I named an old Cat of mine Schrodinger. Sadly he ran away from home a few years ago. I never saw him again after that. No one I ask knows what happen to him.

He ran away from you because you are terrible. I know someone who named her cat 'mandoo and you are tied for worst pet owner.

you guys should all meet up

This girl I know just texted me and invited me to an orgy ...

It was jarring at first but it took me roughly twenty minutes to get used to. I love that controller.

Really doesn't matter. It never bothered me. You move your thumb between buttons and stick all the time, so it really doesn't change a thing.

 

[Mr. F]

It's weird they wouldn't have stuck to their guns on stick placement considering that would have solved the awkwardness people mentioned when holding the right JoyCon

Exactly.

I dunno, but it's not a knock on it compared to the WiiU tbalet.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

But then that wouldn't work when using the Joy-Con on its own. It would essentially be mirrored, with the stick on the right of the buttons, not on the left. And you couldn't flip it around, unless the shoulder buttons were on the exterior of the Joy-Con when docked with the Switch.

You don't quit your job from CBS to transfer to another job at CBS. That isn't how you transfer within a company lol

Oh yeah, the tablet is terrible too, but I had to shut down the Pro controller praise.

It's all bad and if it was good Nintendo wouldn't be switching it up.

I noticed The Lobby was live, so I tuned into to see was it one person crying alone in a bunker.

The trio are having an okay conversation. It's not too bad. It still lacks the unique feel it had when Danny was hosting though.

 

[Data West]

So where does Peter Brown go in 2017?

Waypoint?
Polygon?
Ubisoft. The answer is always Ubisoft.

P. Brown is talking about feeling balls on The Lobby right now. Mary will be on in a bit I think.

Oh *snap* you're right.

The SHSHGAHWGSV-R and LLAKSWVSU.2-L buttons totally slipped my mind.

The main problem with Wii U Pro controller was it's glossy shit. Getting sweaty hands while playing Bayo 2 didn't feel great. Is the Switch Pro matte?

 

[bemusedchunk]

Not new.

Old Dan strikes again.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

This is the Run is a really good feature.

 

[EdReedFan20]

Man, if anyone here has No Limits 2 (a PC roller coaster simulator) on Steam, you owe it to yourself to check out the Twilight Zone roller coaster someone made in Steam Workshop. That thing is phenomenal with all the sounds, scripting, effects, etc. The ride itself is great, too. A neat plus (if you have Vive or Rift (or know how to get PSVR on PC), you can play No Limits 2 in VR.

It looks matte in some of the photos.
It doesn't look glossy, which is a plus.

Wow just watched the video.... Great stuff

 

[Lunar FC]

This is the Run is a really good feature.

Have they attempted to do the run yet or are they still on practice runs?

 

[killroy87]

They've been killing it with content over the past couple weeks, I'm super impressed (even if I'm already over This is the Run)

 

[EdReedFan20]

I wish my PC was VR capable. That thing would be nuts in VR.

Just missing a segment where it gets torn down and replaced with a Marvel ride.

That was super well done. Kudos to the guy that got the narrator from the actual ride, that's some commitment.

Danny produces SKU as "skoo" not "skew"?

Yeah. Apparently it was a Kickstarter that the guy made for this ride. The voice was labeled as the authentic Twilight Zone voice. By authentic, I assume that means it's the voice of the Disney rides, as Rod Serling has been dead for about 42 years.

 

[DanLongman]

Must not have been a requirement when Dan was hired.

I think Dan is the reason this is in the posting, Not wanting to make the same mistake twice

Produces which "skyoo's"?

Eventually East will get tired of it like West did and he'll kind of but not really stop as he introduces Neo New Nuevo NuDan.

Currently sitting in office waiting for this contra stream to start while fiddling with powerpoints

Maybe I should try and work my way back into academia because fuuuuuuuck my job

From watching the Lobby, the Mary to GB dream is dead. It sounds like she won't be in the building anymore.
