Social NintenZone Social 5 - Thanks, Everyone

[Aetheri]

Trust me; I'm having a hard time avoiding spoilers myself until I can access the Switch. Let me just say that its not particularly fun and I'm hoping that I'll be able to get my hands on a Switch soon. Alternatively, if I am that desperate, I could aim for the Wii U version of Zelda. However, this is only meant to be a last resort...

I would honestly suggest getting the Wii U version if you're not really that bothered by the limited portability...

I only bought the Switch version because...
1) I had the money saved up for it...
2) I didn't want to wait to get the game until later and have to avoid spoilers until then...
3) I know I'd regret getting the Wii U version several years down the line...

Mainly because I had the money for it, as I started saving up for it around this time last year...

Heck, you can actually go back to the Test of Strength Trials and re-fight the Guardians fought in them and get their weapons from them again.

Now I haven't played BotW to have an opinion on the overall mechanics of weapons, but this still sounds like a pain that otherwise wouldnt be necessary without weapon degradation.

 

[Z25]

Actually, I should probably ask something since I've been gone over a week and I'm curious. How far are all of you into BotW?

Nowhere, I don't have it yet

Soon hopefully.

Just passed the halfway point of Season 1's Samurai Jack.

I'm getting memories of my childhood after watching these.

You know I want from this final season?: I wanna know Jack's REAL NAME plz.

Got ya covered:

That depends on people's perspectives since you can literally beat the game at any time...

However, I cleared all four main dungeons, completed over 80 shrines, Over 120 Koroks found, only need two more memories, acquired the Master Sword...
I have twenty hearts and 2 and a half on the stamina wheel (plus 4 more Spirit Orbs I haven't used yet)
I've uncovered the entire map (though nowhere near explored all of it)...

So in comparison I'm pretty far...I'm going to be doing a whole lot of sidequests...as well as hunting down shrines I've missed...

I also just realized I haven't tried out the Wolf Link amiibo yet...or any amiibo, though I haven't bought any of the BotW amiibo yet...
Zelda is the number 1 priority...............and the only one I can't find

 

[praline]

All main bosses (aside from final) down and over 100 shrines done (most left are in the Gerudo Desert and Highlands plus the odd one elsewhere I think).
Full 30 hearts plus three Stamina upgrades.
All memories (ergo Master Sword acquired) and towers done.
Not sure on Koroks. Maybe around 90 at most. Not too bothered with them really.
All Great Fairies activated.
House completed. Tarrey Town done.
Not fussed with the compendium.

There's 900 koroks. Nintendo doesn't expect anyone to get even half of them.

As if the Sheikah Armor Set didn't get my attention greatly on how frickin' useful it is, all of the sudden, I got the last 2 pieces of the Climbing Armor Set. And OMG! It's so incredibly useful! Considering how much you climb in this game and how slow you are at climbing at the beginning, the Climbing Armor Set is a godsend! You are the Flash with that set when it comes to climbing! It's amazing! And once again, it looks pretty good in looks. Or Link just makes everything look good.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Or Link just makes everything look good.

you should see him in the garudo garb with earings, omg

 

[Chrono.]

WRESTLING and Breath of the Wild come together beautifully.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Ivander]

I have. I'm just more surprised it isn't up-gradable.

 

[Strider_Bond00J]

So over the past three days since I've picked up a cold:
>Gold Mario is an unlockable for MK8 Deluxe
>@Zebei becomes a mod (Congratulations!!)
>Garry's Mod videos brought me back to Tf2
>JonTron crosses a Moral Event Horizon
>Firestorm is confirmed for Injustice 2

Actually, I should probably ask something since I've been gone over a week and I'm curious. How far are all of you into BotW?

So far I'm up to my first Divine Beast, Vah Ruta. I'm liking the mechanic that you can manipulate parts of the dungeon/Divine Beasts to enter new areas, but I haven't spent much time yet because I'm letting my wallet recover after spending 3000 Rupees buying the House in Hateno Village. I'll be getting to the rest of the dungeon soon, but I've got some university work to catch up on, so I'll get to it later.

I've also managed to collect 2 memories and acquire three new Hearts from the various trials I've found here and there. So far so good, but have yet to increase my Stamina meter yet.

And Sidon is perhaps my favourite Zora character in the series.

The Voe armour is pretty baller.

 

[Robertman2]

I wish there were some Sonic CD tracks in Smash. That'd have been nice

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

So far I have just the Voe hair and yes, that hair is great

 

[Chrono.]

That's why Modding is beautiful.

 

[Robertman2]

Tell me hoowwwwwww. I need Sonic CD tracks

Is stage modding a thing yet?

 

[praline]

I just need to get some white chu chu jelly to upgrade it or the shirt. Haven't decided yet.

Holy **** a mod that does his job.

You're turning out to be quite the prize.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Wound up finding the info I wanted about that amiibo stuff
Cool stuff there

Holy **** a mod that does his job.

You're turning out to be quite the prize.

And I don't even moderate this place!

 

[praline]

Man how long do we gotta wait for more Fire Emblem Warriors news?

 

[Chrono.]

Man how long do we gotta wait for more Fire Emblem Warriors news?

Till E3 I'm sure.

It's gonna be ARMS/Splatoon 2/MK8DX all up in this ***** till then.

 

[Opossum]

Man how long do we gotta wait for more Fire Emblem Warriors news?

Honestly I'm not holding my breath for anything prior to E3, but would love to be wrong.

Even then I think we'll just get confirmation of Marth, Corrin, Ryoma, and Xander, since they're already hinted at.

 

[Robertman2]

I want and .

And for to learn how to have custom songs and stages in Smash

 

[Kurri ★]

I wish there were some Sonic CD tracks in Smash. That'd have been nice

Isn't Sonic Boom in Smash? Or was that only in Brawl?

I do wish they had other tracks though, particularly tracks from the JP/EU soundtrack

 

[Robertman2]

Sonic Boom is only in Brawl. I really want both version of Stardust Speedway Bad Future, plus SiIva's rip of Generations version of it because Jojo

 

[Aetheri]

I just had one of those 'I can't believe that worked' moments in BotW...

Spoiler

Kopeeki Drifts in Snowpeak...

You unlock a shrine by rolling Snowballs down the hills, they get progressively larger then bust through a door blocking access...

Another thing I love about this game is that there wasn't anyone or anything to tell me to do so, I just tried it...and it worked...

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

The Sonic CD JP soundtrack <3
I like the game in general, but the CD JP soundtrack is one of my favorite video game soundtracks ever.

Favorite level in CD is Palmtree Panic, but I also like Quartz Quadrant a lot.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

Now I haven't played BotW to have an opinion on the overall mechanics of weapons, but this still sounds like a pain that otherwise wouldnt be necessary without weapon degradation.

Just as a note I have 114 out of 120 Shrines, 3/4 beasts, plenty of Rupees, a ton of shields, more than enough bows, and weapons upwards in the 50's that I haven't even used yet. I have not once revisited a single shrine. That's one of the many beauties of this game. You need to take weapon degradation into account but it never really feels like a hassle. More like a strategic element present in the game. Plus, if you don't start upgrading the hell out of your weapon capacity ASAP you're going to have to make some hard decisions on what weapons to take and what weapons to leave behind.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Finished re-watching Samurai Jack season 1.

I forgot just how great this show truly is. I can tell I'm going to be in for a treat.

 

[A Distant Demon]

>Found a new avi and a good reaction gif
>May have done way better on that test than expected (feels like I did at least)
>Seth Rollins came back seemingly healed from his injury
> Became a gosh darned moderator!


You know today was a pretty good day. Hope your tomorrow is as good as my today

Guess who is buying shovel knight finally

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I dunno, Swamp?

 

[Deleted member]

Not you, because Shovel Knight is a game about mathematics.

Edit: Also, does anyone know how to get rid of the broken image in my sig? I don't even have anything my sig, it's just there.

I've had that issue with some of my posts. Where I'll remove the image but it still appears as broken and i can't do much about it.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

How dare you
But yeah, I am downloading it

Also thanks for reminding me to study for my test tomorrow

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I laughed way harder than I should have.

XD

"I'm too nervous about the enemies to approach the last tower I need to."

I think as I am FARMING WHITE-MANED LYNELS.

You know what? On second thought, forget my concerns. *warps to go clear out area around tower*

*EDIT* And then I get distracted by something else important as I was climbing and hilarity ensued. At least I got the item I bolted off for. I need it for something down the road.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Thoughts on this?

 

[Knight Dude]

X-men, X-men is the best anime.

Cry for the Moon!

On another subject, I've messing around with THUG Pro. It's a mod for Tony Hawk Underground 2 for PC that basically adds in all the levels from the PS era of Tony Hawk, from Pro Skater to even American Wasteland. Everything is there from onset, ready to play right there. It even includes online play. If you have ever loved Tony Hawk, this is a love letter to those games and I'd highly recommend it.

Man that's gotta be one of the coolest mods in a good while.

Reminds me of the, uh...certain tower sitting in the middle of a lake. Clearing out the enemies around there without getting killed ended up being a puzzle in and of itself, especially since I was running low on arrows.

I shudder to think what it was like for anyone who didn't think to cryonis themselves some platforms...
