Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Peepo T. Skeleton]

So is it just me or are Yoututube embeds autoplaying on Smashboards all of a sudden? Twice now I've been jumpscared by random videos going off.

It's not happening to me on Smashboards, but Reddit ads started doing it last week.

Really hard to read F-Zero X master mode tips when Phil Swift is yelling at you.

 

[Guynamednelson]

I ended up watching it with the family as a joke, and I've gotta agree that it was actually kind of alright.
I think the reason it gets memed on (aside from what you mentioned) is because it was a yet another by the numbers superhero movie released during a time people were getting sick of them.

Oh, and Morbin' Time.

I at least...downloaded the movie in Doom WAD form. I still don't have any motivation to actually sit through it, not even with Doom's HUD superimposed over it.

YouTube automates the Games choice; Don't breathe too much into it.

Maybe but I’m pretty sure they did this exact thing with Diamond and Pearl last presents. Auto generating game from 1999 also does not make much sense. It’s usually a recent game.

True, but also YouTube and Google have gotten objectively worse at stuff because of not just Ai stuff but also for seemingly no reason aside from SEO

Fair enough - Still wouldn't take it as confirmation, but it's something to note.

 

[Shroob]

Oh thank god there's no Embeds on this page.

 

[TheMightyP]

One thing I find interesting about modern Pokemon is that they're bent on making actual "Boss Battles" beyond trainers. Gen 7 had the totem mons, SwSh had the Dynamax stuff, PLA had the Yellow Texture mons and Alpha mons, and then SV had the Titan mons with the DLC adding a couple more.

And idk I... actually kinda like them more than the trainer boss fights? Besides dynamax boss fights thoae just suuuuuuucked.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Oh dear, there's been embed issues? Will keep that in mind.

Much as I wanna share DC episodes I don't wanna jumpscare you guys with Kristal's booming voice.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Oh thank god there's no Embeds on this page.

Also, there is no autoplay for me

I think it's from an old Looney Tunes short, but I can't name which one or the character itself.

Roadrunner

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Hopefully that content, as well as the FES content, eventually makes it’s way to the game officially.

data shows that The Answer and Episode Aigis are dlc storylines coming up...but no Kotone involved

I thought I heard from NASB2 discussion that crossing over TMNT continuities was something Nick was against.

Then tne trans-dimensional turtles episode from the 2012 series shouldn't exist. Thsi disproves that rumor.

same with the same show's Bebop & Rocksteady storyline involving the 87 cast

 

[Shroob]

Looks like Scar/Vio is gonna have a Hisuian Voltorb outbreak


Which is great since Hisuian Voltorb up til now could only be caught legally in Strange or Pokeballs.


Increased shiny odds too.



......maybe this is what I'll shiny hunt actually, for novelty's sake.

Nice job properly covering H-Voltorb, GameFreak. Lazy devs smh.

While I have good bets on Johto appearing in the Presents, Pokémon doesn't give away clues that obvious for stuff like this, and definitely not an entire week in advance.

I want to say it's YouTube's doing.

‘Jurassic World’ Director Found in ‘Rogue One’ Filmmaker Gareth Edwards

The studio was forced to conduct a speedy search after the quick coming and going of David Leitch.

Oh joy can't wait for the cutting away and cockteasing of the dinos as what was done in G14!

A forgotten looney tunes character in the short called Cheese Chasers 1951. Name is Claude the cat.

I committed one last DCEU tier list sin

[Shroob]

Okay so apparently Youtube is just broken for a lot of people right now



Videos are just auto playing for people and they're not even fitting the screen's resolution.



Seems like the broken Embed thing is on Youtube's end

Why would they do everything except the female protagonist?

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Okay, the resolution issue I've had a few times. At least I think.

Some videos seem to be playing in bigger screens than what they should be or normally do and end up a bit blurrier and taking up more of the screen as a result. And this is while using the smallest video screen setting.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Has anyone here ever thought of doing let's plays?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Has anyone here ever thought of doing let's plays?

Yes. I thought of starting a podcast style let's play with a friend. But now given how... different my relationship with that friend has become... I don't think it's gonna happen.

 

[Noipoi]

Has anyone here ever thought of doing let's plays?

No.

But I have considered one of those gaming retrospective channels. Something like KingK or The Geek Critique.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Gift me a streaming PC and maybe Ill start

 

[Shroob]

So like, is the switch port of Nier good?


Or just in general, is the game good?




Cause all I know about it is 2Booty.

 

[TheMightyP]

I don't rage out or really scream when I play games (I'm pretty mellow with some variation of excitement) so I'd be a pretty boring Lets Player.

And also I don't have equipment nor do I really want to Lets Play. Middle School me would be devastated to hear that.

Pyoro is implying Xbox will show up. Maybe last week's Xbox thing did delayed the Direct.

Odd! I was thinking the same thing, myself!

 

[Wario Bros.]

Xbox added touch control support to remote play on mobile. Neat, but I'll stick with my phone controller.

Now I still wait for Xbox original and 360 support on mobile remote play.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

cause they wanna be as accurate to normal 3 and FES as possible

even tho Kotone is a really awesome protagonist

Haven’t played it myself, also only personally knowing it for dat robotic ass (Aigis you still better tho), but most people say the Switch version is a freakishly amazing port of what’s already a top tier game

I mean.... it was an alternate selectable character. As far as I know the stuff in the female route doesn't effect the male route at all.

Like... am I wrong? Is the story different between the original and Portable besides the obvious difference of a different selectable character with different romance options? Cause if not than this is some BDSP level of Bull****.

Female MC lets you save whats his name from dying assuming your social link is high enough.

OK... so one thing. But still. Having that be an option in the female playthrough, which I assume is all it ever was, an option that you only had in the female playthrough, does not effect the content from the original game they want to be accurate to.

Like... adding stuff that wasn't there is fine changing/removing stuff that was there to begin with isn't. And considering this stuff was already in a version of the game that everyone loves, why not bring it back?

Like seriously. Is there any real reason to play Reloaded over Portable when it's just going to not have some of the Persona 3 content because of this... i guess you can call it dogma.

I've been experiencing this when I try to make a video full screen for the past 2ish months. All I have to do to fix it is tap the screen and it shrinks the correct size.

No.

I'd definitely give it a watch if you did.

Since we're on this topic, any Nitro Rad enjoyers in here?

Well, The Answer is canon to the series, and the only way to experience that is owning either a physical copy of the og game, or emulation.
