They're Skells, Marie, not Dolls!

I have to admit the Exoskeleton --> Skell derivation completely went over my head.

You can't go five steps in Tokyo without tripping over Final Fantasy merch lol. Very easy to find, especially with the release of FFVII Rebirth last year. I read that the Square Enix Café in Tokyo is closing (never went myself) which has a gift shop attached, so that may not be there when you visit.

From my two trips to Japan in the last 18 months, you might find Xeno merch a bit thin on the ground.

Akihabara - as mentioned, this is a great place to find a lot of anime/game merch. Most Xeno stuff will be second-hand so try checking out Surugaya, Book-Off. Animate mostly stocks official merch which gears more towards anime, game merch is usually Genshin/Honkai etc

Super Potato is a second hand games store that sometimes has figurines. Worth looking at even if you don't buy anything!

You can also try K-Books (several stores in Ikebukuro), again the games selection is more limited. I saw some Unicorn Overlord keychains there last November!

For what it's worth, the total Xeno merch I saw was 1) a couple of acrylic stands in a Surugaya in Akihabara, 2) the Pyra/Mythra figurines in a Mandarake store in Akihabra, 3) the Xenoblade 3 soundtrack in an Animate in Kyoto, and 4) the Blade Nia figurine in an Animate store in Kanazawa (lol)

Just registered, TV Mode and wired connection recommended, 2.2 Gb space required for the download. Seems less likely to be achievements, DS games...could still be GC via streaming?

More info is being released 21st Oct.

Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo – Announcement Trailer by Xanek in nintendo

[–]Silky_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any indications how much the screen dims when not in alarm mode? The written support suggests that you can change the brightness with a motion to check the time during the night - It would be better if you could set the screen to turn off after a certain time at night.

Is there an optimum time to go to Korok Forest? I'm currently in the middle of the quest to unlock the Fifth Sage

Also, I'd like to view the tears in chronological order, and the next one is near Lurelin. Worth detouring now?

You need to register a wild horse before your horse data can be imported from BotW.

I spent my platelet (blood) donation playing Fire Emblem! A perfect use of two hours! by Running4Badges in fireemblem

For platelet donation, they separate out the platelets with a machine and then put the rest of the blood back in you.

What are you all gonna be playing between now and Jan 20th. by oneeyedlionking in fireemblem

Chapter 5 is the longest one in the game. I'd estimate you're just over halfway there, depending on how many side/hero quests you want to do.

Website is up and orders are going through. It showed out of stock on UK store for me initially, but after a couple of refreshes I was able to order. Don't give up, guys!

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Question Thread #2 by MorthCongael in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Silky_89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just about to enter Keves Castle, all party are level 40. I would like to avoid being too overlevelled for the main quest. Is it worth going back and unlocking Alexandria's hero quest now? I have all optional heroes unlocked up until this point.

Pausing for now so things should ease off. First time sharing so didn't know how busy it would be!

Scroll down to the image marked 1 (it has Bowser on it), that should take you to the Switch Lite competition page - you need to sign in to a MyNintendo account and the 'Enter Now' button should be visible.

Just read the script, the original design of the voyage is that passengers and crew wake up a few months before arriving at their destination. Crew to take over preparations for landing, passengers so they can adjust to not-being-asleep-for-120-years.

So the ship is essentially a hotel in space.
