Fun Fact: The only Smash shoo-in is Yomi and no one can say otherwise.


What, you expected me to beat that dead bear again? :troll:

At least this is Brash worship anymore.

She's got a hard on for charter schools above all else, in an attempt to encourage "choice for schooling." She has proposed giving more funding to private schools.

In theory it's not so bad, but when you realize most of what she herself has funded are far-right Christian schools, it doesn't inspire confidence...especially when it can give marginalized groups and poor people less of a chance due to charter schools always caring about their own agendas and their own money more so than the students.


There's also the fact that a good amount of them would choose to teach "alternative facts™" about things like evolution, history, and climate change, but that's a whole other can of worms...
I see.

That's.... messed up.

Not to mention the fact that she has no qualifications or background in educational administration...which has led people to notice that what she did do was make some pretty significant campaign contributions.

But the aforementioned things are the bigger deal. What about all of the families out there who can't put the money together for private education? Are they not aware of that? Do they not care?

Or is this yet another case of someone with a lot of wealth and success looking at the less fortunate and assuming they must somehow deserve their misfortune?

I can see the Master Sword breaking in BotW; probably because malice causing the sword to "rust". Resulting in a quest to restoring it or being forced to use other weapons; the ending might change if you slay The Calamity Ganon with the Master Sword or not.

With the master sword means a good ending.

Honestly, while super stoked for Breath of the Wild, I have barely looked into deep details on the game outside of article headlines and trailers. Maybe because I want go blind, IDK.

What, are all the bosses some kind of weird incarnation of Ganon?

"Wind Ganon" "Calamity Ganon"

Mod edit: Spoilers added.

I'm thinking that the dungeon Ganons might be elementally themed, with each one in a different animal machine. Maybe this one in the bird, Earth Ganon in the desert one, Fire Ganon in the colossal thing noticed on Death Mountain, and an unaccounted for one for Water Ganon?

Maybe the ending is different depending on whether or not you tackle the dungeons because if you don't, Ganon's influence is still out there or is able to mess things up somehow. Maybe Ganon had his form split into pieces on top of being sealed.

So, from what I've seen here, Trump is continuing his journey of turning the USA into a laughing stock on the world stage?

And here I was going to ask everyone for fun ideas of how the USA might come to stop existing one day, I had this amazing scenario where Canada has had enough, eh, of the USA always taking credit for everything, eh, and defeating the USA with the majesty of Niagara falls,eh

And now I would like to apologise to all Canadians for the forced eh jokes I put in the above sentence.

It's awful, terrible, Switch is dead.

That's what Neo GAF told me.
I may be spelling out the joke here, but isn't that what NeoGAF says about everything? :secretkpop:

They're freaking out about no internet browser at launch right now when we already knew that. . .and the "at launch" part means they might patch it in, which is already better than a flat "no."

If only there were other ways to use the internet.

I should Google it on my phone and see if I find an answer.

Anyway, so I've got a question for all you guys, basically, I'm going to ask a simple question, how badly do you guys think Trump is going to age because of being the USA president, because if you look at previous presidents, from looking from start to finish, at the end of their terms its quite clear the stress of the job shows on their faces, as can be seen here:

http://content.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,1872168,00.html

Also turning back to the UK for a second, you guys can ignore this if you want I just want to vent:

Those who voted for the UK to t leave the EU are really pissing me off, with their whole let's just leave the EU without consulting parliament at all, and just make it so all our trading deals with them fall apart, and cause lots of people to lose their jobs. Seriously they also seem to think that leaving the EU will equal hundreds of jobs to spring up on the UK.

Plus many of them are calling for UKIP to be in control of parliament, who really don't care and have only ever fought to leave the EU that's it, nothing else. And so many people think that Nigel Farage, a lying piece of **** who said the money that's given to EU would be used to pay for our NHS, which was probably ever going to happen, since our MPs never seem to do their job, and end up taking more from the pot then they need, don't get what I'm saying look up something called the MP expense scandal, which basically destroyed any trust that the UK public has in its MPs, since all the major parties are more concerned with lining their pockets then actual helping the public.

Anyway, something more fun, so who do you guys should be president after Trumo, after all if somebody who thinks they can sway companies to bring back jobs to the USA, where over a thousand American politicians have failed already, why not let say Swamp be the next president? I mean after all at least Swamp doesn't live in a fantasy land.

Plus he's pro Swamp, and who doesn't like Swamps?

I think some of the people terrified about the Switch's features might not realize just how much of the 3DS' features were patched in.

Apparently the 3DS didn't have an internet browser OR an Eshop at launch. I jumped on late enough that I didn't see that for myself, but I was there when they patched in Miiverse, then Themes, then Badges.

If the Switch is getting similar support, then while we aren't getting every nice thing -right away-, I think it's entirely likely that the UI by the end of the Switch's lifespan will be a whole other beast compared to the UI at the beginning, so I'm not really worried about slim features quite as much. That, and the Switch menu seems like it actively has space set aside that extra menu options could be patched into, which the 3DS didn't even have.

Maybe it's not going to have certain things as an "immediate system seller," but the way some people react you'd think the assumption was that things will NEVER happen. I guess they're the types that stick to consoles and never had a 3DS?

Trump's already looking like that, according to secretaries, he got visibly pissed at the woman's march getting more attendants than his inargation lol
Brexit was a horrible mistake

Swamps are good for the environment. Many swamps were filled in at various points in the past to the detriment of their local ecosystems. We can always use more swamps.

The major dungeon they mention has to be the airship. A gimmick where you can tilt the entire structure would feel weird normally, but not when it's a massive flying machine than can just angle itself. And a wind-themed boss with a gun arm? Fits right into the mechanical nature of the ship!

I'm actually starting to pull another theory together about these rumored dungeons and the major NPC we've been seeing...

Switch preorders are apparently up on Walmart.com if anyone's interested. If anyone wants in, you might wanna start running. . .

*EDIT* It ran out after a few minutes from what I read. Hopefully I warned someone in time, although I probably didn't.
