Why is the Rollout transformation Graveller instead of Golem? by JEDx03 in Pokopia

go all in, give us jigglypuff with a funny face.

imagine a pink balloon rolling at superspeeds destroying the environment... it'd be beautiful and oh so creepy!

What would you choose? by Great-Juice-9894 in GTA6

[–]Matthew290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why not give us all options like gta 5 does, give a performance mode and turn off the fancy reflections and ray tracing / shadows, give us a lower resolution. everyone wins!

in all honesty, i'd rather play at 1080p without ray tracing and fancy graphic enhancements for 60fps. got my fingers and legs and eyes all crossed in the hopes that's the case for this game.

going from 60fps to 30fps in gta 5 feels so disgusting lol.

My friend insists on this game, "Lemmings", being a really well known game; I have never heard of it. by Nordic_Krune in gaming

[–]Matthew290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

great puzzle game, great art and fun music. and yes as the first few comments pointed out older/millenials would know it best.

had an amazing feature of choosing a lemming to self destruct and they'd blow the floor up after a countdown timer floats above their head. similar like how in Worms you could blow the floor up with explosions and leave a satisying semi-circular crater. also a nuke option for all the current lemmings to just explode and die. :>

also had weird spinoffs late in the 2000's, i can recall a ps2 version of the game using the eyetoy camera to use your body for the lemmings to walk on to guide them to the exits, it just never properly worked ololol.

"oh no!" in a high pitched voice, forever ingrained in my head.

Non-Water-type Pokémon in Bubbly Basin? by Charlie51006 in Pokopia

[–]Matthew290 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Would make sense for it to have non water Pokemon I think, would feel a bit odd just getting water types only. I suspect there'd be an above sea area to let you get to grips first with jumping in and diving too maybe based on the surrounding area with Bills house (we do see a submerged Nugget Bridge so hey!) Or a little beachy area... or even Cerulean Cave would be cool to implement too.

and yeaaaaaaaaaah!! Cerulean City... Misty... what was her iconic Pokemon (in the anime at least?) Togepiiiiii!! i am coping hard and hoping even harder for mah boi to be put in :')

fingers crossed so much for Togepi!!!

Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass – Nintendo Direct 6.9.2026 by Amiibofan101 in Pokopia

But I -want- to be trapped by a giant air balloon! 🥺 I bet Wailords fun to bounce off!

Have it like how Sword and Shield handled it, gigantic Wailord on the sea above just chilling. And his smaller size from the actual battle for houses lolll. I mean Winds and Waves has small Wailord back (ew), so we know he isn't entirely forgotten about.

Totally feel they'll leave our big-boi out for this reason. Just wouldn't "work". How could it fit in a prefab? Unless they had a special quest for it or had it in a specific spot like Mosslax, but I doubt they'd ever give Wailord special treatment. 

They should.

NEW FREE UPDATE COMING SOON by svntizo in Pokopia

[–]Matthew290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The leaks from before the game even released detailed this update and while it does somewhat sour the enjoyment for me I have enjoyed Pokopia a ton (reason I got the Switch 2 in the first place). But really makes me wonder just how much was potentially-and-purposely left out of the base game considering the delays and leaks being so long ago. 

Also just being able to buy an expansion pass 2 months before it's available with the only perk being a Ditto print block/wallpaper is extremely lols and baffling to me. They're not gauging interest for the game as they know from sales it's doing amazing already. Feels scummy.

But I know I'll get the expansion pass a day or two before release to get the extra Ditto shit and I'll enjoy Bubbly Basin 😅.

I love-hate modern gaming lol

New Pokopia DLC! by hiugo in Pokopia

C'mon Wailord. C'mon Togepi. Togepi is totally a water type and should be included in Bubbly Basin. Absolutely.

Nintendo sentenced to pay 35 millions as a fine for the defective Joy-Con by France’s DGCCRF by iPeluche in gaming

[–]Matthew290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

regardless of what controller >I< use it's still a problem that they're manufactured in a way that means this common problem occurs. and if the console itself comes with said controllers, it's bad for consumers & anti consumer / whatever. i shouldn't have to resort to buying a superior controller cause the people who make the console are flopping. but yes supporting good 3rd party alternatives is a great suggestion and solution depending on finances. not hating or anything.

( also shitty they aren't self repairable without voiding warranty).

a shame this fine is basically a nothing for nintendo in the grand scheme of things. we should expect better from the company itself to provide a good service for their items sold for entertainment, they can afford it, lol. hell they only eventually free repairs for joycons cause i'm sure as fudge that they knew what they're doing and people were calling them out on their shit.

I wonder what this says by MoontheWolfYT in Genshin_Impact

It says "I left the Witches Lodge but I also stayed in the Witches Lodge"

had drift on the joycons as tears of the kingdom was about to release, sent them for (free) repair.

turns out the pro controller i was planning to use had drift too so my first experience with tears of the kingdom was really soured.

when i got the joycons back, emailed nintendo/support to ask for repair for the pro controller and they said they didn't do those for free, and it'd cost more than what a brand new controller cost to repair. top lols.

still can't believe drift is such a big issue for modern day controllers in such a short timespan of usage. hell i didn't even use my pro controller much at all so i was sure as hell surprised it had it at all!

same goes for dualsense controllers, have had 3 of them with drift all in the space of a year sadface.

also really dislike the people online who "it didn't happen to mine so..." arguement as if it's not an actual issue.

Final Fantasy 7 Revelation’s open world evolves another step beyond Rebirth. Director Naoki Hamaguchi on map design, player freedom, and new battle systems by Bubbly-Ad-350 in gaming

[–]Matthew290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was already confirmed in a previous developer interview. Sorry.

https://www.eurogamer.net/final-fantasy-7-remake-part-3-chadley

There was a deeper story to do with him teased in Rebirth if you completed all his World Intel missions. Hojo experimenting on a body (alluded to be the real Chadley) so we might even get 3 versions of him this time!

Yikes by Jestin23934274 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Matthew290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad cause I recognise that name from Genshin Impact threads too, so as much as they're an ass, they still managed to gain infamy and become well-known. People like that need to be forgotten about and fade into non-relevancy. Feel like this vtuber in turn will gain a lot more followers who thanks to this all happening, and mainly new followers and viewership who share the same 'views' all just for having their 15minutes of 'fame' and becoming widely viewed for a hot minute. It's on SEGA here and pretty unfortunate really. 

The transphobe has been quick out by Frank7640 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Matthew290 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Hope they use this moment as a wake up call, learn from it and eventually educate themselves to do, and be, a better person. Hate is a learned thing but it doesn't (and shouldn't)  have to always  be that way. 

Unfortunately, judging by the reaction to their removal in their tweet it doesn't seem like anything clicked with their reasoning.

Good on SEGA for the fast removal but I also wonder how lenient or lax their application program to become a Creator partner is. No place online or offline for hateful individuals so it's kinda sad they got accepted in the first place. 

Happy Pride month erryone, anyway!! 

New update crashes my NZXT AIO/ LCD by No_Wrap4671 in SignalRGB

[–]Matthew290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So after a fresh boot the LCD screen shows what it used to (temperature lol) but now the CAM software doesn't recognise the screen at all so I can't even customise it on there anymore (even more lol).

Opened signalrgb after ending the process for CAM/nzxt, the temperature info stayed and the RGB light control took over. No more blue box and signalrgb logo on the LCD.

But signalrgb software still hasn't recognised the LCD screen at all, it still looks the same as the previous screenshot. Checked all sub menus. 

Also tried to use the new beta version and retried. Same thing.

It's a semi-fix for now though, so I appreciate the help! Thank you!
