Social NintenZone Social 5 - Thanks, Everyone

[praline]

praline sorry about not seeing that message on my profibe until now, that was really sweet of you~

Hey don't worry about it. :D

If you want Linde, you best bet is NOT to pull the current banner, and instead wait for the Mage Gauntlet banner. You have a higher chance there since she isn't competing with Cordelia for the blue focus unit spot.

Now if only I saw this before spending 100$ trying to get her.

Why is nearly every unit I want a blue one?

 

[Aetheri]

You said the opposite thing as an argument as to why my statement about a toy's children having a train **** neing suoer weird wasn't to be believed

I looked at those and they told me reptiles don't have feathers
Dinosaurs are reptiles
Raptors are dinosaurs
Raptors are reptiles
As such, raptors have no feathers
Checkmate, christians

The books you're reading are clearly outdated then....

With dinosaurs like Y. Huali (which is basically a T-Rex with chicken fluff (I also painted a picture of Y Huali)) that have been discovered with preserved feathers in their fossils (this also includes some species of raptors), our perception of dinosaurs is changing...

I have the opposite problem, I can't get red mages and really need one.

 

[redfeatherraven]

Are you sure this is really what you want..?

So sure I even snipped it out for you.

Trying to get a specific unit in a gacha is like trying to win the lottery.

You won't. Gachas are specifically designed on making you want to do something but not having any reliable way to do it. Just need to play and hope but not care if you dont get it and work with what you get.


Occasionally you get lucky, like me getting both versions of Squall without issue in KHUX
Sometimes you fail to get Lyn or Roy but manage to get every other Red Lord available.


Tis but another day in the world of gacha

I only started playing Heroes myself for the D.VA skin and her incoming inclusion in the game, but I do have to be honest even though I've played WoW, Diablo and Starcraft at some point in my gaming career.

I have like zero idea who any of the characters save Nova and Diablo are that aren't Overwatch characters.

I did remember some of the characters just from looking at their name or portrait, like Raynor, Jaina, Thrall, Tassadar, Kerrigan, Illidan, Arthas, Medivh, Artanis and Kael'thas. Some others I remembered after looking at their profile or appearance, like Zeratul, Anub'arak, Malfurion, Tyrande, Rexxar and Sylvanas. Besides the Overwatch characters, the rest I had no clue, except for two:
Nova, because I remembered her being the main lead in the cancelled Starcraft: Ghost game, and Diablo, cause A: It's Diablo, the namesake of his game, and B: Because I did see images of him during my long-ago hunt for portraits for Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale.

So today my buddy and I have basically experienced everything we could while playing Snipperclips as two players...

We completed the World mode (1-2 players), very disappointed that it was only 3 worlds long...though I suppose 3 worlds at 15 puzzles each is a fair number...

Party mode (2-4 players) was alright, I'm not sure if it'll differ depending on the amount of players but it was an additional 21 puzzles....most of which didn't even need 4 players as we both were able to solve some of the puzzles without even using our spare...whatever those dudes are called....Snippers? Yeah I'll call them Snippers...

Blitz mode (2-4 players) is pretty neat as it's sort of a versus mode, one was a basketball match as you try to get the ball in other's hoop, another was frikkin Air Hockey! was pretty fun, and the other was a dojo which is basically snipping the crap out of eachother...lol
Once again I'm not sure if they'll have different games depending on the amount of players...but this seems like it's be a cool alternative to Smash or something if there's a couple other people with another set of Joy-cons...

Overall, the game was pretty fun, we had a few good laughs and some of the puzzles were really fun, I do wish it was a little bit meatier, mainly in the World mode as it's a lot better if you haven't already experienced these puzzles beforehand, and it's fairly short after going through all the puzzles once...but it's still a fair price for what it is...and was a really fun game...

but seriously **** the single joy-cons...For one session I decided we'd switch the left and right joy-con to see if there was a difference but I still had a similar discomfort in my hand as before...there's not enough for my larger than average hands to hold onto with those tiny things, with that said however it's really cool that a single portable unit has the capability to have two players without additional controllers...so I can't be too mad...

Man, you have no idea what you've been missing out on.

In other news I totally missed the news that The Dark Tower got a trailer today...

For those who don't know The Dark Tower has been my favorite comic/Graphic Novel series since it was first released in that way. As I'm a fan of Stephen King, when I heard one of his novels was going to become a Comic published by Marvel my hype skyrocketed. I was super excited about the movie until I found out who uploaded the damn thing... Sony Pictures. Oh god I'm so worried about this movie being bad now. Don't get me wrong Sony CAN make a good movie or two but they usually screw up tremendously with sequels. Especially Comic Book movie sequels. Spider-man and Spider-man 2 were great but as soon as Sony wanted to start making MOAR MONEY we got the disgrace of Spider-man 3, The Amazing Spider-man, and The Amazing Spider-man 2 and yes I hate the 'Amazing' movies I'm sorry. Then you have Men in Black and while the first one is great the second one is the opposite and the third is just rather mediocre.

So, what I'm saying is this one might be good but I have almost no hope for the future of the franchise... And that sucks too because this movie has Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey whom are absolutely stellar actors who I would love to see more of in this role. I guess we'll just wait and see though...

Thank you, but I shall not need luck. My brain is too powerful.

Just recently got my Switch with Zelda and Mario Kart. Needless to say, it's quite the blackhole of time consumption. I'm enjoying the ride, however.

I'm currently Switchless (so no MK8D for me), but I'm fine.

Stupid Dr. James Rustles doesn't have MK8D yet, so I'm going at it solo for the time being.

Been watching some Arms gameplay for the past hour or so...

It's definitely looking quite promising for a unique fighting game...hopefully there's still a decent amount of content still yet to be announced, we know of at least 10 characters but I wonder if there will be more...

Regardless Helix is looking like a top candidate for a main, mastering his movement could make him a very viable character; Ribbon Girl's another candidate just because I love her black alt, but in addition to that she seems quite fast and the multiple jumps can make for decent mix-ups; Despite my initial criticism of the character during her reveal Minmin's looking pretty cool as well, at first I thought her dragon arm was just part of the weapon she was using (since it was a dragon head) but it turns out to be part of her gimmick...Was also considering Ninjara since he's quite fast and his ninja vanish could be useful but Ribbon Girl's also quite speedy and she has multiple jumps which I feel may be more useful in certain situations...

BTW May the fourth be with you!

Be a responsible adult and play Etrian Odyssey on your 3DS to improve your cartography and stealth skills!

Shish thinks kids would be arrested for pedophilia. All the rangersin that show are about 8 or something

 

[Bestmand902]

Started Evangelion a while ago in the interim between reading Jojo parts (Just recently finished Stardust Crusaders: I really, really liked it but there were parts that definitely could've been cut for pacing).

I mostly started it because my friend's been bugging me about watching it and I finally caved, and...I really like it so far! I'm so looking forward to when it gets scary though, I'm on Ep 11 and there's not really too much psychological horror yet

 

[Kurri ★]

Heroes of the Storm is not a fun game and I do not look forward to playing 10 more games for the rest of the rewards.

This D.Va skin is fire though.

Now watch W, Drive, Blade or start Ex-Aid

Still gotta finish Fourze, and then I'll get into Ex-Aid. I have a looooot on my backlist XD. Debating on checking out Thomas The Train Sentai as well

Going to set up a proper spreadsheet for my Dungeon Crawler. Only issue is I still don't have a name for the game. D:

I don't know what you're talking about, this thread is an anime. There's no way we(by we I mean @Shishœ) could be so weird and not be one.

You got Hector. Very nice! He's one of the rarest summons you can pull in the game. I've been trying to get him for a while, and I still haven't been lucky (even in my previous summon when I had 4 green orbs...which ended up being 2 Bartres, an Arthur, and a fourth unit I forgot; all four of which were 3-stars)

It's also worth mentioning you pulled father and daughter as 5-stars in one summoning, and that is some incredible luck!

Oh, I remembered you probably need to watch Movie Wars MegaMax, otherwise about 3/4ths in the show Gentaro will have an orange form that has no explanation without the movie

Psycological wise, **** starts to hit the fan by Ep.14, then a full bag of manure smashes the fan by Ep. 22.

 

[Strider_Bond00J]

Well, I've just had a Japanese Test about two hours ago. Hopefully I do well in it for a pass, but for now I'll just take it easy, before getting on with some general stuff during my free day tomorrow.
