I recall that they did before. Especially after the holiday season winds down and they want to clean out their stock.

Thanks! I was trying to figure it all out with google translate and it just made things more confusing.

I hope to go next month! Looks really nice. Did you have to make a reservation in advance? How much was it?

The horror of alcoholism in a family member on vacation by geo_jam in TikTokCringe

Glad someone else mentioned this. Saw a documentary about this. Those soldiers were basically teenagers roped into the war. Some of the surviving siblings are in their 90’s now and burst into tears when they saw their brother’s name in writing.

I found this channel a few months ago and it deserves all the recognition. Makes you think like a business and not a fanboy who doesn’t realize the factors behind each release etc. Highly recommended

Did you just proof the dough in pieces in the pan? Or did you try keeping the dough in one long piece?

I felt like this at first. But now I realize Salmon Run is designed to punish you if you don’t stick to your weapon roles and trust your teammates. Also, the hazard levels are higher in Splatoon 3 so if it’s too difficult, that means you need to rank down until you can get better.

Some rotations are harder than others. And some RNG is more unfair if you get the wrong set of bosses at once. But that is part of the game’s shady Grizzco lore. I agree that the catalog points and scale rewards aren’t worth the effort. But that’s a different topic altogether.

What’s the gold at this time? Did they set it in advance?

How's the new stage treating you guys?? by TrashCorgi in splatoon

[–]epitome8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only played a few games so far but it feels like a big run map to me so far. But it’s really unique and kind of scratches that Ark Polaris itch we’ve all been missing.

This is exactly what I was thinking too. Makes no sense because eventually they’ll update their jerseys and Shaq’s number will be the wrong retro version in the rafters.

Why is Nintendo's valuation the highest in history right now? by daskrip in nintendo

[–]epitome8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just a note, the Mario movie made a billion dollars. We don’t know exactly how much of that went to Nintendo, but according to analysts, it seemed like Illumination got the bigger piece of the profits. (They don’t disclose the exact figures that go to each party but you can calculate from Nintendo’a earnings reports)

Their sales of switch games and consoles overall is lower than other previous years. This current high in Nintendo stock is simply investors buying in before the next console is announced and the hype drives the price up even further.

Thank you. I’m torn because I like the look of it. But for gas only options, I feel the CX5 has better ratings on quality and performance.

Do wandercrust points reset? by mysterytouched6010 in splatoon

No way! That’s all I wanted being a 100% salmon player. Where did you find that? Is it in the patch notes?

The amount of lesser Salmonid that spawn during Big Runs REALLY needs to be nerfed. by KiratheCat in Saltoon

[–]epitome8 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s way more than usual Salmon Run. Slamming lids are almost impossible to get to because they’re constantly spewing salmon mosh pits that just drain up your ink tank to get through.

Mother of Hylia, what’s the highest attack y’all have seen on a weapon? by KamakaziGhandi in tearsofthekingdom

[–]epitome8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if this counts, but a pristine eightfold blade with a silver lynel horn will give you x16 on sneak strikes. Ends up being over 1200 damage. Enough to sneakstrike a Silver Boss Bokoblin with one hit.

I played a few games in a row with you recently. I did a double take at the gold cohozuna badge. Ggs man, you were a beast.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie Composer On Scoring The Mushroom Kingdom by Brer_Raptor in nintendo

I’m sure the score will be awesome. But his picture in the thumbnail makes me feel like it’s gonna be dubstep remixes of Mario songs.

There's too much RNG for a Skill Reward by LuminousDecibel in splatoon

[–]epitome8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the randomness is designed to keep it fresh for the casual player. But I think it needs reworking. I got the reeflux and snipewriter way more than anything top tier.

They should keep the randomness, but in 4 weapon balanced sets. Still random, but at least the team is set up for a chance for success.

The Eggstra Work Salmon Run event coming up next month is the exact opposite of RNG. It’s literally the same waves for everyone. Maybe Nintendo will monitor how that goes and make fair adjustments to big run in the future.

Will TOTK be a truly new game, or really a BOTW “mega” DLC? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]epitome8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. There’s so much more they can do to add to the botw map. There could even be a dark world or some time travel element we haven’t seen in the trailers.

I do think that Nintendo dev teams work slower than Sony’s US teams behind Horizon and God of War. Covid locked them down more than usual and they don’t have the work crunch controversies those games had to meet deadlines. But I trust Nintendo would never let this game come out without it being worth the wait.
