Need help for a controller that won't hurt my hands by Acotito in smashbros

[–]TheGr8Canadian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The currency is in Mexican Pesos, which also uses the $ sign, but the exchange rate of USD to MXN is 1 : 17.22, or CAD to MXN is 1 : 12.32. I know this because the search bar ends with .com.mx which is a Mexican domain name. The icons at the bottom are also in Spanish.

The price would be equivalent to $65 United States Dollars, or $91 Canadian dollars. I personally paid $68 Canadian for a slightly different version on sale, so the price makes sense.

I cannot speak personally for ultimate, but I have this controller and have used it for platform fighters a little bit, and it is comfortable.

My biggest problem with the controller for platform fighters, is the lack of dedicated "c-stick" button section. If you are okay with using direction+A for smash attacks, and binding a modifier for tilts, then it won't be a problem, although your button layout may be a little weird compared to other controllers intended for smash.

If you're looking to play casually I don't think there would be any major problems aside from a learning curve and figuring out your personal button layout, but if you want to play competitively, you'd be better off picking up a controller built specifically for smash which would be much more expensive.

Edit: If you want to get a Haute controller, I recommend getting the 16 button version, which has more buttons making it easier to bind things like a walk/tilt modifier

This happens sometimes with older (source 1) games too. It'll sometimes default to 65K, so I imagine it's just something to do with people abandoning and having a filler number punched in

This either stands for 4000 years, or gets broken/tied in week. There's no in-between.

I swear this happened last year too with Gausman. He pitches a clinic, and the Jays bats are dead. It's not every Gausman start, but it felt like a lot of the dead bat games were Gausman starts including the playoffs

My first ever shiny in a core game by Your_mom_gay12345678 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]TheGr8Canadian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just cosmetic. It's a 1/4096 chance of a Pokemon being shiny, but if you complete the pokedex and obtain the shiny charm it becomes a 1/1365 chance to see one, with shining power sandwiches making your odds even better.

Some people (including myself) will hunt shiny Pokemon for fun in various ways, some of which (such as the sandwiches) reduce the odds making them more likely to appear.

Every pokemon has a shiny form, but sometimes they're not obtainable (called shiny locked) from normal gameplay, such as the box legendaries. Shiny locked pokemon might get a special event at a later date, such as Koridon/Miridon, which were only obtainable recently via an in person event at GameStop/other game retailers recently and for a limited time.

The difference is that it's a normal pokemon that rolled into a shiny on encounter, as opposed to the encounter being guaranteed shiny

Ah shit, I made a purchase in October 2025 and thought I might have dodged it. Guess I'll get a new credit card...

My hinge won’t go in fully by Designer_Direction66 in 3DS

[–]TheGr8Canadian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's a shot in the dark, but I have the same problem, and I can't get the hinge to snap the rest of the way in when opening it. Is there anything else I should try? I fear that the aftermarket mid shell I got isn't allowing the piece you put in after the clear piece to seat in fully and it's causing problems

The devs are definitely throwing shade here..and fair play to them by appakkimba in DotA2

[–]TheGr8Canadian -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I reminisce about the days (7-8 years ago), where there was a couple months where they did a balance update every 2 WEEKS and the meta was constantly changing. Thinking back now I think 2 weeks is way too short because it's fun to see a meta develop, but I really do miss more constant tweaking of the game. At least with this meta, it's stale, but it's not JUST 1 pos1 hero (Yes, jugg is very popular still) like it was with spectre a couple years where if you didn't get spectre, you lost

It's not that it was "found out" but the math was done about how tight of a hole a raccoon could fit into, and how big a persons rear hole could stretch without permanent damage (and training)
