Gonna tag my two SEGA Partners of the server ( Speed Weed and osby )

 

[TheMightyP]

Well

Spoiler

Jynx is in the datamine


Oh boy who's ready for controversy 2.0

People still care about the controversy?

 

[Shroob]

Do you really need to ask?


Besides, who's to say that the supposed new form won't be controversial in of itself?

Don’t Jynx it, bro

 

[Wario Bros.]

Other than being changed to purple in Virtual Console games, not really. She still appears in the Trading Card Game occasionally (same goes for the Porygon family).

Poor Kababra hasn't made an appearance in the TCG since 2004.

 

[TheMightyP]

So Jake Paul's house just got raided by the FBI. Seized a ton of drugs, pornography, and firearms. He's got a search warrant now.

It's every day bro with that Prison Channel flow!

 

[Noipoi]

Just realized something: In the data of Pokémon HOME there's a unique cry that seems to be for a second Jynx form and datamining Sword/Shield suggests Jynx will be one of the returning Pokémon in The Crown Tundra DLC.

*thinking emoji*

Oh ****

Spoiler

White Jynx

 

[Knight Dude]

Crazy how I'm more excited for the Miles Gaiden game than I am for the Avengers title. Well not that crazy, Spider-Man games from SM2 had a pretty solid track record.

Maybe I'll get invested if Black Panther joins up.

Isn't that due to legal issues? From what I can find online, a magician was going to sue over Kadabra's appearance, since he's famous for bending spoons and Kadabra's Japanese name is similar to his own.

That's pretty ****ed up. Though I was expecting the "smut sold without people's knowledge" to be even worse given all the BS recently. What are the chances he actually stays behind bars for long? Cause I doubt'll be long unfortunately.

Rival Schools fans finally eat after more than a decade since Batsu was in Tatsunoko vs Capcom.

Batsu was also in the Capcom, Namco and Sega crossover, Project X Zone. But yeah, it has been quite a while since we last heard from Rival Schools. Here's hoping they can do the same for the Darkstalkers series too.

So a page from the book, 'The Traveller At the Gates of Wisdom', by John Boyne, shows the ingredients to make red dye, except its the ingredients to create red dye in Breath of the Wild. You can see the words Octoroks, red lizalfos and four Hylian shrooms. I don't know how this happened but it's kind of funny.

OKAY. This is a thread, but it’s worth it I promise.

On Reddit today, user u/NoNoNo_OhOhOh posted a page from acclaimed Irish novelist John Boyne’s latest book, ‘The Traveller At the Gates of Wisdom.

Note the ingredients. pic.twitter.com/4RTgZxtUT7

Yup

Though this didn't stop the Virtual Console release of the TCG video game.

Man, the more I play Sushi strikers the more I'm bummed it's theme music isn't in smash.

Speed's super move leaked

Great. You got ProtonJon in my head now.

I just finished mowing my grandparents lawn and got a good $25. Time to buy some sleeves and upgrade my D-Heros methinks. Out of the 3 YGO decks I'm building that seems like the one that needs upgrading the most.

 

[DerpingPikachu]

I just remembered there was a smash update
Need to try out small battlefield lol

 

[Wario Bros.]

So arcade Super Punch-Out!! is coming to Switch August 14th.

Now all we need is Arm Wrestling to complete the arcade Punch-Out!! experience.

 

[TheMightyP]

Depends on whatever they say the warrant's for, they never said.

I'm gonna correct my statement, so far, it's just the firearms confiscated, but him being a drug dealer and the pornography is heavily rumored. Some rumors are saying it's for having intercourse with minors, which honestly would make sense for the FBI to be involved.

Ah yes, my favorite sequel to the Ninja Gaiden series.

Once again, I repeat, that's pretty ****ed up.

So as it turns out, Ultimate Online did get a change.
In 1v1 with no spectators, the tickrate has been doubled to 60 as opposed to the old 30. But with a spectator or 3+ players, it goes back to 30 ticks.

Why did Ultimate run at 30 hz beforehand?

Because Nintendo.

Because Nintendo.

For those who don't understand this technical jargon, let me explain more clearly:
The tick rate is how often a packet of data is sent to the server. In this case, the data would be the inputs that you performed. In old Ultimate online, your input would be read once every two frames. This would lead to a lot of dropped inputs which would make the game much more frustrating. Now, in an optimal 1v1 scenario, it will read your input every frame, meaning that it's possible to perform more percise inputs without the risk of it completely dropping all together.

TL;DR: Ultimate, the game that runs at 60fps, now has the tickrate to match it. Nintendo did the impossible, and actually improved the online.

Why was the game at 30hz beforehand lol?

Disney cut ties with him at the right time.

As if hiring him in the first place was actually a good idea.

 

[Z25]

Not sure about the Eda theory though if it were true it'd be amazing.

The King and Bill CIpher theory though, that's a hill I'll die on if I have to lol.




You'll be missing out on a lot of story concerning Olimar and the background of other things if you go to three, but three is a great place to start from a gameplay perspective. It introduces plenty of new game mechanics as well as mostly improving on those from prior games, and does a good job of explaining the basics. Managing and ordering Pikmin has always been fun to do, so you're set on that front. It also has a time limit like the first game, though it's less restricted and relies instead on how much progress you're making. It also lacks a dungeon system present only in Pikmin 2, so no matter which game you start with or what order you play the games in, Pikmin 2 is always gonna be the odd one out on that front. It's still a great game, but all in all I can agree that three is still a perfectly good place to start, from both a gameplay perspective and considering the fact that it's much more easily available than either of it's predecessors.

The first two Pikmin games have aged perfectly well, imo, just...as long as you aren't playing the original Gamecube version of Pikmin 1. The New Play Control version of it on the Wii has some bugs but it's better than the original simply because Pikmin are much easier to control and save from environmental hazards than in the original.

Here this has some really strong evidence in it:

This is weird but pretty cool. Now remake it Sega!

Drug stuff seems very likely. Multiple posts are floating around from his party two weeks ago. People had to sign waivers to get in, with around 8 minors being sent to the hospital for drugs and almost getting taken advantage of. That and the guns seems to be why they stormed the place today with a army.

 

[LAA9000]

If you think that's bad, Splatoon 2's online tickrate is limited to 15Hz. Apparently it's supposed to be less demanding for slower connections, but I'm not sure that's true, and even then, many people today have a fast enough connection to handle online gaming at 60Hz.

 

[Aurane]

Theivul has been banned from PU and has now been moved up.

To PUBL.

GF, please save this poor baguette fox.

Trust me, us Splatoon fans know how awful the netcode in that game is lol.

I'm just now noticing that Speed racer follows the same general tropes from the Scooby doo clone genre from the 70's despite coming out a couple years before Scooby doo.

Ninja has been arrested for burning down an entire forest and 15 counts of arson and property damage

Considering how they accommodate for single player balance as well, you'll have to wait for it to not need to be balanced around the early game.

Heavy is apparently a character people really want: it topped a fan vote going by this news article. Not particularly surprising tbh but just a neat little tidbit.

edit: here’s the original tweet too

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Wario Bros.]

I have a feeling that the Switch port of arcade Super Punch-Out!! will have a higher age rating than the first arcade Punch-Out!!

Reason why is arcade Super Punch-Out!! has an alcohol reference (Soda Popinski's original name was Vodka Drunkinski).

Getting Heavy into Smash would be one of the greatest things to ever happen in Smash, and I don't even play Smash anymore.

I'd still prefer Chell and Portal getting in over TF2.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Wait, when did Disney hire him? That sounds like a disaster.

 

[Shroob]

I love Portal, but the best way to rep the series would be GlaDoS imo.


That, or maybe the two droids.


Sadly, GlaDos could never work as a character for obvious reasons.
