Free gaming journalism is pretty bad.

If you pay for a magazine, the quality jumps.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I used to get Nintendo Power, but it doesn't exist anymore. I think the last one I got was the one for Mario 64 though

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Such is the fate of most, if not all journalism, honestly.


Pay for a newspaper subscription, people. It's basically chump change in the grand scheme of things and you get actually good content. You get what you pay for, after all, so those free sites set a bad example.


This has been a "don't complain about poor news outlets when you don't pay for quality news" PSA from someone going into the news.

 

[Coricus]

I cant stop looking at it

Its top teir
what a ****ing nerd. I love him

Merry Christmas, boys and girls!

Spoiler: Large image

Hug me.


I wondered a moment just now where he even learned about Christmas, but "Outrealms" is probably a valid answer so it's far from the most confusing mystery of gaming. An alternative explanation involving Smash Bros where someone taught him the true meaning of Christmas and he caught on HARD would make a hilarious fanfic, though.

He was just fascinated by Dedede's sense of style and invented Christmas in the process.

How do you raise the star total for a unit?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Ooh 10 free orbs from My Nintendo!

How do you raise the star total for a unit?

I'd like know this as well

I guess there's a new 'Circle of Life' policy for Gamestop employees to force their customers to buy used copies of a game...

It's bad enough to the point they will lie about not having any new copy of the game in store and try to sell the used copy, simply because the company makes more money off of it and the employees get benefits the more used copies they sell...

This is pretty scummy...

 

[Coricus]

Yeah, but Sonic already cosplays for Christmas so he could have got it from him too.

Of course, Robin went the extra mile compared to the hat and jacket Sonic puts on, but then putting on a jacket is already the extra mile for Sonic.

lol idk what gamestop you are going to but mine dont do that

 

[Thatkidwiththeafro]

You and me both would want him.

Even Thatkidwiththeafro too.

After playing a lot of Hawkeye in Ultamite Marvel vs. Capcom 3, I can easilly say that his niche has been found for Universe.... - Afro

 

[Robert of Normandy]

Got Nino on my second pull from the gacha. :D

 

[Coricus]

I think they found one of the NeoGAF topics that's been bobbing up and down.

At least that's what I instantly thought of when I heard them relay that since that's where I read it.

Apparently it's a thing going around about their new policies as I saw a bunch of videos speaking about it in my recommendations on YT, I've never had an issue with my local retailers about something like this...but then again I haven't been to Gamestop for a little while (mainly because I had no reason to)

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

has anyone ever laughed at random things?

I asked google " how long do echidnas live?" and it picked up " How long to chickens live" and it started talking and the first thing it said before I dropped my phone laughing was " According to my pet chicken"

 

[Ivander]

Never too late to get in the Christmas spirit, eh? Have some early/late/whatever presents from the datamine.

(These were stored under Ninian's folder, of all places. Ninian herself gets nothing, though. Maybe a future update...?)

That Robin costume is going to be in Smash Bros or Fire Emblem Warriors, right? Right? RIGHT?!

But either way, after seeing Robin and Tharja in Christmas gear, I got to ask:
How would you feel of Nintendo doing their own Moba/Team-based game, not so much like Splatoon, but like Overwatch and Moba games like League of Legends and Smite? With the main game being constantly updated freely and such while cosmetics are gotten through lootboxes either through the game or cash? Would you be interested in it if it was an existing franchise of theirs? Or would you be more interested in an original IP for that style? Just various questions on what your opinion for such a situation be.

Wait. You're phone has a pet chicken?

Well that explains why the chicken crossed the road.

It was taking the phone to a WiFi hotspot.

None of mine force me to buy used games at all. I can buy new games with no problem

A talking pet chicken, you say.

"Actually, I have no idea what the answer to that is."

 

[Aetheri]

I guess you don't have to worry about it then...

But still something to consider in the future, as this is a new policy, I've only just heard about it...

As much negativity and ugliness we got in the news and the world today, it's important to highlight the goodness I think we still got.

Same.

I laugh at the stupidest things sometimes.

It's not about whether or not it happens to you, but that it happens at all.

Me and my sisters humor has been beat to hell so bad that just the word "succ" makes us laugh

[Aetheri]

Also just watched ReviewTechUSA's video regarding the Switch super bowl ad...The only negative thing he said about the ad was that it's dumb to play the Switch while cooking with grease, but he mentioned it was smart as it was a way to show how it can be played anywhere...

It's very strange seeing him so optimistic about Nintendo...I usually don't like watching his vids because he comes off as very condescending...that and the added cancer in the comments section...

Aw...

That's just sweet.

Sharing their synagogue is a pretty big gesture.

I hope we can all learn from these peeps.

I've played my DS while cooking, lol

 

[SkywardStriker16]

What I meant by the first one was a veteran who wasn't already in Smash 4, like Wolf, Snake, or the Ice Climbers.

...oh lord, I can't read, can I?
Yikes.
Super Smash Bros: Every Fanboy's Wet Dream HD Remix
1.) Wolf
2.) Ridley
3.) Inkling
4.) Rayman
5.) Chrom

Super Smash Bros: My Actual, Totally Not Redone Decisions
1.) ...fine. Wolf.
2.) Fine, I'll change it up. Ghirahim.
3.) This too. Ninjara from ARMS would be awesome. Or really, just any of the ARMS characters.
4.) Banjo-Kazooie. Not budging.
5.) Hmm...Cordelia. Horse included.

[powerprotoman]

so to sum up promoting in fire emblem heroes you need A a hero at level 20 B a **** ton of feathers and C a nice boxfull of badges greater badges are for 4* characters to promote into 5 star characters and can only be gotten on the "6th stratum" or higher of the training tower

 

[Moydow]

Are you posting all the pictures of all the heroes to the wiki?

I would like the Sprite sheets that probably come with it them also, for icon and sig purposes

I'm uploading all the artwork, at least. As for the characters' map/battle sprites, well... let me just give an example of what they look like in the game's files, so you can see why that might take a bit longer:

Spoiler: Niles

...Yeah. If anyone fancies trying to stitch them together, or wants the animation data file so they can try and decode it, I can pass them on to you if you like. It seems like the same way the skinship portraits were done in Fates, so someone will probably figure it out eventually.

Oh, ouch.

That's kinda similar to what I found when I tried to track down the portraits used in map conversations in Tales of Symphonia. When I finally found what I THINK was it on a website, it was in. . .pieces.

So yeah, not blaming you at all for not trying to stitch that together.

That would take me a while to put together.

This for some reason reminds me of paper dolls you pin the parts on
