@kirbizard

@Dex It didn’t. Also, super excited for the sequel.

@qdot Also, that build specifically nerfed the Poker station, so the game’s economy could work as intended.

@qdot It’s still going! They even released a Steam build a couple years ago on a new Doubloon ocean.

@kelseyhusky TBH, they may have recognized they lost that demographic to the emulator and speedrun scene. If you’re ever interested in setting up a tiny portable emulator machine, lmk.

An oddly specific thing about Tetris 99: the format and presentation look exactly like how Puzzle Pirates did its naval battles (except using Tetris instead of clones of Puzzle Bobble and Super Puzzle Fighter).

I know of a few people that this appeals to specifically, and I kind of wonder if Nintendo hired them or any former Three Rings employees.

Nintendo: Here are games where you can be a Yoshi. Here is a game where you can give gifts and belly rubs to your friendly neighborhood dragon. Here is a glorious remaster of your favorite childhood game. Fire Emblem now has deep character customization. Oh, and Tetris now has 99 players, because why not.

I... huh.

... they’re remastering Rune Factory 4, and that means getting an updated version of Ventuswill. Eeeeeeeeee

Also, that was an end-to-end spread of games that I’m all interested in playing, time permitting. Huh.

@kirbizard Very edge of the map? That’s the one that failed in mine yesterday.

Seems like these are all preplanned instead of random, so forgetting one seems to be what happened.

@kirbizard Had this happen yesterday, didn’t see an area indicator either, and was all “?????”.

@Kilroy@snouts.online Alexa was a bridge too far for me in terms of data security for the same reason we skipped having a smart TV: there’s a big difference between a mobile device that collects metadata that is heavily regulated vs giving arbitrary voice and picture data to poorly defined IoT.

For me, it’s less about what happens to data that lands on our friendly neighborhood megacorp’s servers, and more about not wanting my TV or Alexa unit showing up on Shodan visible to anyone.

@kelseyhusky Somewhere in my stuff, I still have a tube of them and a few $5 slammers.

Petition to call current Seattle weather “Sno-cone”

Current status:

In a game that is 95% about things being loud and shooty, someone decided “what if we made this into a nature documentary that you can play”, and I think that is wonderful.

Warframe for Switch added a mechanic where you can save fuzzy woodland creatures and be rewarded with virtual plushies, and now my game’s Orbiter is a giant plush pile.
