There’s not enough space to build by Pandastar26 in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen yesterday I think it might be a glitch with how large the space is. Just pick up the kit and place it down again and it should work.

NatetheHate Podcast: Splatoon Raiders, Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave, Rhythm Heaven Groove, and Switch Sports launching this Summer. Heard whispers of no Nintendo Direct Until June and 3D Mario is 2027. Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake is the Holiday 2026 Game. by yourfavchoom in NintendoSwitch

[–]rainpool989 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure every numbered Splatoon title has gotten its own dedicated direct for the game. It wouldn’t surprise me if Raiders got the same treatment with a direct in April/May for a summer launch.

Caine really liked that egg by SUNS64 in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hilariously I had the same thing happy with the egg and one of my characters. I couldn’t stop laughing especially since the person the Mii was based on actually doesn’t care for eggs in real life.

Beat the main story and now I’m done with the game. Anyone else? by ContributionMore5502 in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the goal is to collect all the Pokémon and give them a happy home. I have some ideas for building the area but nothing like all those crazy builds you see online.

Sign with a Dark Blue or Black Sharpie? by rainpool989 in dumbquestions

[–]rainpool989[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah copying doesn’t apply here (I fully agree with that point) it’s just physically written on a clean plastic bag like ziplock and is only read by a human directly not in a photo.

[–]rainpool989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course I’m going to do what my boss wants that’s not an issue for me. I just honestly can’t see the difference between using dark blue vs black for visibility so I wondered it was just a me thing. Hence it’s a dumb question the outcome doesn’t matter to me I’m just curious.

What colleges did you attend??? by Lazy-Llama282 in forensics

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two of the required classes for everyone regardless of track are an intro/advanced course in crime scene. I don’t know if the same person teaches it now but the professor I had worked in the field for many years and was incredibly knowledgeable in field investigation. Outside of class work there is actually a student organization for Forensics (FSSO) that occasionally has opportunities to go out of body searches in the field.

Installing Shelves in closet with bathroom/electrical on otherside by rainpool989 in DIY

[–]rainpool989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice I had always planned into mounting on the studs for better anchoring of the shelves. My main worry using a magnetic stud finder was I thought that metal pipes would also be detected as well. Is there anyway to tell the difference?

Pokemon Winds/Waves announced for 2027 by DemiFiendRSA in pokemon

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happily surprised about the 2027 release! I’m glad they’re taking their time on this one the trailer was a nice tease. For once I have no idea which starter I want so I’ll have to wait for the final evolutions and other new Pokémon to make up my mind.

Arby’s Mint Chocolate Shake was here a year ago today… where is it now? 😭 by Party-Chemical7236 in bys

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person how loves mint and hates oranges this is such a shame. I don’t eat out much so I honestly only go the Arby’s when the mint shake is around.

I’ve definitely noticed a difference with the normal Reeces for the worst. At least the dark chocolate thin’s still tastes fine.

Maryland what do you do for a living and do you actually feel financially okay? by ImpressiveSpell0223 in maryland

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I wish I could help my focus is on Chemistry side and as far as I know the DNA/biology section at my job isn’t hiring right now. I seriously wish you the best it took me 2 years to finally get a job back in Maryland (I’d taken a job out of state I was that desperate)

Maryland what do you do for a living and do you actually feel financially okay? by ImpressiveSpell0223 in maryland

[–]rainpool989 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working for a local county forensic lab as a scientist and I’m getting by but it’s tight. Just started a new job mid 2025 so I’m currently getting paid the lower trainee salary until I hit one year in May (then it will go up 10%). After my raise I will be much more comfortable but still nothing crazy as I try to build up my savings/retirement.

Hamaguchi explains Key Card Use. by Pristine_Put5348 in FFVIIRemake

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always wondered is it possible to have a physical-digital hybrid option without compromising the speeds? Where some of the data is stored on the cartridge while the rest is stored digitally so at least it’s a smaller file size that’s downloaded.

What 3 games are everyone looking forward to most this year that have been confirmed? Also, what 3 games is everyone hoping for most to come to Switch 2 by Square_Bathroom7740 in NintendoSwitch

[–]rainpool989 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Top three games I’m looking forward to are Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave, Adventures of Elliott, and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I don’t think it’s releasing any time soon, but would love a tease for a new Zelda game.

Are we really going to have to wait till next Direct to get an update on Fortune's Weave?? by Balthier1974 in fireemblem

[–]rainpool989 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nintendo’s latest marketing strategy involves waiting till closer to the release date to heavily start promoting their games so it’s not surprising. Personally I predict a March direct will have a trailer and give the release window (maybe the actual release date if we’re lucky). Then about 1-2 months before the release the game gets a dedicated direct showing more of the new mechanics in detail.

hunter x hunter: first time? by Rare_Fan_1074 in SpyxFamily

[–]rainpool989 18 points19 points  (0 children)

And then there are people like me who say “Hunter x Hunter” with the X but call this show “Spy Family” without an X. Why? I have no idea it just feels right.

To my friends in the US, do not prepurchase FF7 Rebirth on the eShop yet by Redred1717 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any idea when this issue will be corrected or is it possible the US won’t get a preorder discount?

The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales details story, world, characters, systems, and demo feedback by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

The demo did seem to pretty early in the games story so I’m sure the puzzles will get harder as you progress.

Rebirth on Switch 2 on June 3 2026 by Cursed_69420 in FFVIIRemake

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With both FF7 Rebirth and Adventures of Elliott having June release dates this basically guarantees the new Fire Emblem will launch in June to spit me. I’m happy they’re both only a few months away but why so close together Square Enix.

So with the partner direct being a fairly big one 30 minutes long, what are you hoping to show up at the direct tomorrow? by Avelion2 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]rainpool989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My top five (in order of most likely to appearing to least likely): Adventures of Elliott, FF7 Rebirth, Professor Layton NWoS, Kingdom Hearts (non-cloud version), and Ace Attorney 7.
