Okay Good Job looked fucking hilarious. Untitled Goose Game except now it’s Untitled Intern Game

Yeah Good Job was what caught my eye too. Eager to hear some hands on impressions.

Apparently this has some weight behind it, people from Polygon and such chiming in with ‘not a rumor’.

Nintendo has big plans for Super Mario Bros.’ 35th anniversary | VGC

IGN and Eurogamer have jumped in on the ‘true’ bandwagon, too.

I can’t get past the tutorial on how to use the gun in Luigi’s Mansion 3. A circle with the “A” button pops us and fills up with a green color and also there is an arrow pointing down (or sometimes up) on top. I’ve tried different timings of pressing the A button and moving the sticks up and down. How are you supposed to shoot the gun, I’m guessing at the dog? I’m using the pro controller.

In the new house we’ve put the Switch in the study attached to a 43" tv. I used to play almost exclusively in handheld mode, but now I play on the TV mostly. So I finally grabbed a Pro controller and it arrived the other day. OMG! What a great controller! Immediately became my favorite controller ever, over the newer Xbox One controllers. Wow! Its like a totally new system with the Pro controller.

Same here.

Nintendo is making 3D Mario remasters for his 35th anniversary

Paper Mario is probably what I’d be hyped about the most.

Yeah, it’s one of my favourites too! It feels so solid and comfortable.

So… crossing the streams here, but the lovely pro controller does not have analog triggers.

So how do you bring Mario Sunshine to Switch? That game needs analog control over the FLUDD device.

I was wondering as well if PWOTCH was need for Fluffy. I’m obviously a QV fan.

I don’t understand anything referenced in this message.

Nintendo Switch does not have analogue triggers, so it’s not really a specific pro controller omission. :)

If the rumours are true and Sunshine is being remastered (along with a bunch of other Mario games for 35th anniversary) I think they could just use 2 buttons for FLUDD, since that’s all the analogue trigger really did in this case.

And it will probably support GC controller for the more harcore.

I’m in the same boat. But it’s entertaining, nonetheless.

[dgallina]

Good job is reviewing well so far.

[fiveolddogs]

During the Shelter in Place, my daughter, and apparently most of humanity, wanted to buy a Switch. They appear to be sold out everywhere I can think to look. Any tips here on how to pick one up?

[rowe33]

I used one of the in stock trackers I found in Google, then just kept checking it. Ended up with two - one from Games top and one from Walmart. Took a few days but each one shipped and arrived.

[Scotch_Lufkin]

I can explain!

PWOTCH is a Titch streamer, though he has no videos and doesn’t seem popular. Fluffy is the name of a popular comedian, and QV is quod vide, or “on this matter see” and is used to source referenced material.

So @Left_Empty is probably suggesting that a Twitch streamer should have been used in a Fluffy sketch, and then he would have been able to source that sketch!

Nailed it.

[Chappers]

Beat me to it, well done Scott.

[dgallina]

Yep. That’s the only way I found that worked. Used nowinstock and set email or sms alerts on the SKUs we wanted. Then sniped them as soon as was notified, took a couple of days for stock to appear anywhere in us fwiw.
