"I'LL SHOWER YOU WITH COCONUT CREAM PIES!"

That line is just... what the heck, man?
I mean, there's actually nothing wrong with saying that. Like it's hilarious as a sexual innuendo, but he's literally just talking about food lol. It'd be the same as saying "I'd shower you with chocolate fudge cake".

The DKC cartoon did much more to endear me to King K. Rool than any of the games. :p

Its weirdness and the cheesy songs made me like it more. The writing wasn't bad though, so I can't say enjoyed it ironically. It was good enough for its time.

lmao the new Kamen Rider keeps having SOMETHING to do with the Switch
The first episode of the show came out in the same month
The Mario and Luigi themed form debuted around the time Mario Odyssey gets officially announced
And a new guy called Para-DX 'switches' between 2 forms on the go, one of them seemingly being Street Fighter inspired

Anyone else got this problem on Youtube? When I watch videos and it get to the end bit where they show other videos to watch (with those ugly oversized clickable images but that's another rant) but the video suddenly skips to the end. I wouldn't mind but a lot of people I watch talk over that part and it super jarring. I thought it was an ad blocker problem but I disabled it and it still happened.

Okay so I got a problem. My Xbox One keeps turning off by itself every time I play GTA 5. I unplugged it and let it sit for 5, thinking it was a heating issue, but it still turned off. I gave the system some additional space for ventilation- still turned off. I checked system settings. Nothing there is doing it.

I don't know what else to do here. Anyone got a fix?

Is that ReviewTechUSA?

His comment sections are typically cancer.

We mentioned how dumb Bow units in FE can be, but is there a class you always hate seeing? I personally am not a fan of Knights, they can't move, usually have **** growths, usually have difficulty killing enemies and their only saving grace is lots of Defence. Oops, here comes a mage! Other than Oswin, knights have always been crap from my experience

Don't know if it was discussed here, but apparently Breath of the Wild will be the first Zelda game in which you can't rename Link.


Undoubtedly this is because of voice acting (can't reasonably have Zelda say every unsavory name the player thinks up :p), but I have to wonder if it's also part of making Link seen as his own true character as opposed to an avatar.

Mario Run didn't have anywhere near the same hype as Pokemon Go. So to see it drop off isn't too shocking. Though to be honest, I mostly ignore phone games as it is.

Wyvern Riders, full stop. There's always that feeling of dread whenever a map is full of them.

It could just be a voice acting thing. If Link was made to be more of "his own" character, they might have given him a voice. Glad they didn't though. I hope they don't screw up Ganon's voice though.

Actually, Four Swords Adventures and the non-anniversary edition of Four Swords couldn't rename Link either.

This was pretty much confirmed way back at e3 with his name actually being in the dialogue...Doesn't make sense to be able to change the name if characters in the game will just ignore the change anyways...With only hard confirmation now it's pretty much just accepted at this point...

I never really saw Link as an avatar character anyways...He is a silent protagonist who is still very much his own character, very much like Mario and Samus in their respective games, even though Link differs because there is more than one of him throughout Zelda canon...

Those pricks can always be annoying, but I was moreso talking about units you hate, when they're on YOUR side
In that case, thieves. Incredibly frail and often lack the power to overcome it. Yeah, the utility is nice, but often they feel like dead weight.

Forgot about the Four Swords games. :p

Sometimes I feel the only one that actually like Knights/Generals. I mean, until FE6, they were pure garbage because Mov was super valuable due to the maps being big(especially in FE4) and lack of Spd aka the best stat in all of FE. But FE7 gave use Oswin and Wallace, and then FE8 gave use Gilliam and, despite many calling her useless, Amelia. Dunno how they did in Tellius but I know Awakening ****ed them up even in their design and the two avaible Knights being the most forgettable characters in their respective generations.
But man, did they make a comeback in Fates, Wary Fighter is the skill that erases their one weakness and Benny can tank for days while Effie OHKOes everything.

Anyways, answering the question: Pegasus Knights
I don't think I ever enjoyed using one of them, high Res is pointless when you can't counterattack Mages, they are all very frail and weak on the physical side, low Con makes their high Spd useless, prone to death by 360 no scopes and Wyverns just do the flying gimmick better. I sometimes even try to use the because the GBA Pegs are all cute girls and to get in my army you need to be cute but I dropped them all after either a stray arrow or having to stick Slim Lances to them that are as effective as me beating a wall with a spoon.
The closest I ever got to it was using Shigure in Fates... as a Kinshi Knight
Wyvern Riders, full stop. There's always that feeling of dread whenever a map is full of them.
On the case of units I hate on the enemy side, two words: GBA Heros
Heros are one of the few Jack-of-All-Trades RPG classes that actually manage to become Masters-of-All, unfortunately, that applies to the Red Units as well, which means they have a sturdy, strong, bulky and fast machine of destruction blocking your way to Jaffar before he suicides into Ursula. And for good measure they can also carry Axes and make good use of them because unlike Warriors or Berserkers they can actually see. The only thing you'll see, however, is a shield spinning in the air before a Killer Axe makes you black out

As for my list. . .

Breath of the Wild I already paid for, so that's obviously a definite.

Other than that, Splatoon 2 is the main definite, with the rest being on varying degrees of likelihood depending on what I see of them. Considering it's pretty easy to guess how Splatoon 2 will play while most other titles on my list are still varying degrees of vague, that's probably the "responsible" way for me to approach it, although with only two current guarantees and a launch system I'm sure I'll at least get some of them.

Sonic Mania
Sonic Project 2017
Xenoblade 2
Fire Emblem Warriors

Although. . .if Smash Bros and Pokemon turned out, I'd probably get those in a heartbeat.

I'm also waiting to see if anything is said on Terraria since it was implied by the developers. Miiight consider an additional copy of Minecraft as well, but that depends on my mood.

Who knows, I might get something else depending on what hype trains there are. I'll probably end up dipping into Virtual Console a bit more as well if that's there, as with the Switch coming I only really bought two titles for the Wii U. . .granted I'm kind of bad about finishing older games in general and the genre that I picked up for both of said games on the Wii U in particular but uh

Anyway I'm also considering Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadow of Valentia, but I guess that depends on my mood at the time as well seeing as it's a 3DS game several months after the Switch launches.

I can't say anything about Kjelle, but if that's the case then it's less that they messed up and more that they did exactly what they were going for. I mean, _____ has their whole gimmick being that no one remembers them.

The sheer forgettability loops back around to being memorable. That's why _____ is a meme in the first place.

. . .Hey, where did the image I posted go?!

That meme gets boring quickly, especially since most of the time people feel the need to point it out
It's best to be subtle
And it's not like Kellam is actually a good character or unit
EDIT: Maybe that's why he's so forgettable in-universe
