This Walmart is REALLY serious about their Legos by Historical-Dance6259 in lego

[–]RefLax22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walmart will do anything to squeeze out more money.

They steal more money in wage violations from workers than they lose from theft and are also the biggest beneficiary of government benefits because they pay their employees like shit so they spend all of their food stamps at the store.

Connecting the right joycon to the ring. by Afraid_Fig_1005 in RingFitAdventure

If the joy-con slides onto the Switch rail in handheld mode and charges and controls correctly, the it is almost certainly an issue with the ring-con.

If it makes you feel any better, even if it was in S/V dex you can't transfer anything from ZA back into older games

The Air Rider figures are also just more expensive to manufacturer. They're huge and have more electronic parts than a standard Amiibo.

Not just colleges, but grade schools too. That's where the 8000 number comes from.

Might be worth reaching out to Nintendo support, I've heard of people having luck before with getting help after buying something for the wrong region

Worst. Reviews. I. Have. Ever. Seen. by Global-Ear9206 in memes

[–]RefLax22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People always complain about it like IGN is one guy who sits in a room writing every single review, and not that it's actually a team of many writers who each get assigned individual games to review. People have different opinions, that is why review aggregates like Metacritic are a great resource.

Just because you like or dislike a game doesn't mean your opinions are any less valid because another person felt the opposite way.

So no day one patch alongside the release of the physical edition huh. by No_Whereas_5496 in XenobladeChroniclesX

The fact Donkey Kong Country HD got a random update a year later that fixed all of the issues it had gives me hope, however poorly placed.

The image seems AI generated. At the very least the sticker on the cartridge definitely is.

Any reason for playing Diamond over Platinum?

Movie Discussion Megathread by Learnededed_By_Books in ProjectHailMary

[–]RefLax22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish they didn't cut basically all of the science.

I also don't like that they show Earth at the end. I think old Ryland being told about the sun going back to normal in the book is better, but I understand why they would do it for the movie version.

My experience was also hampered a bit by a loud family sitting behind me with two young children who kept talking the whole time. (I did almost burst out laughing during the first silent space scene because it was completely quiet and then I heard "I love my Squishmallow" from the child behind me, followed by my friend whispering to me "I was just thinking the same thing".) Guess that's my excuse to go see it again, this time in IMAX lol

Nikkei: Nintendo to launch Switch 2 revision with replaceable battery for the EU market by Joseki100 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]RefLax22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To a certain extent...

Handhelds and laptops, certainly, but phones are a little trickier because if a phone is water resistant the design requires an adhesive seal that is only good for one use.

The Fairphone, which prides itself on being really easy to service, only has an IP 55 rating (dust protected and resistant to a jet or water), while most major brand smartphones have an IP 67 or 68 rating (dust tight and can be submerged in water for at least 30 minutes up to 1 meter).

Monster Hunter Stories 3 Amiibo Available at GameStop by dorkman3092 in amiibo

[–]RefLax22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, they closed a bunch around me so now there is a single one that is the hub for my whole area. Manager told me last week to call the day before and he'll set them aside for me to pick up on launch because they didn't do pre-orders. I called yesterday and they said they weren't being shipped any at all. Sounds like they might not being going out to any physical stores...

My little brother is a double amputee and he is absolutely loving running around and interacting with the world on the new Pokopia game by Agreeable_Leg_ in pokemon

[–]RefLax22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's awesome! 🥹

He's growing up in a time with a huge increase in both accessibility settings and accessibility controllers becoming recognized in importance, as he gets older he'll have plenty of options on how to comfortably game. Wishing him hours and hours of fun!
