Bamco knows bikini skins of their characters are gonna sell like hotcakes.

That being said, I’ll forgive them if they only release a Kazuya bikini skin with jiggle physics for his pecs.

garretble, do games w New Nintendo patent suggests Switch 2 may solve joycon drift
@garretble@lemmy.world avatar

I had to replace my original sticks this year because they finally started to drift after five years or so.

I now have some Hall Effect sticks in each side, and I haven’t had any problems in the last six months with them. I really hope they go this route for the switch 2. It makes a lot of sense for them to, as well. They wouldn’t have to deal with fixing as many, and consumers would get a better product. Could be a rare win for both parties when I’m sure there’s some bean counters going “but if the controllers break more often we can sell more controllers!”

Hopefully a class-action wipes off all profits gained from that way of thinking.

Viking_Hippie,

Unfortunately not. Planned obsolescence fuckery is the norm now, not the exception.

At least one class-action going ahead so far.

Viking_Hippie,

Yeah, but that’s in Canada. Unlike the US, they don’t let companies get away with LITERALLY everything yet. Good on them for staying sane on top of the asylum though…

morphballganon,

What is Hall Effect?

sleep_deprived,

It’s a way to detect which way the stick is pointing using magnets. It’s way more accurate and incredibly reliable.

9point6,

Also because the moving parts don’t actually make contact with the sensors, the wear issues that affect joycons basically don’t exist

Engywuck, (edited )

HI! My son just received a Nintendo Switch for Xmas. Would you mint telling me more about those Hall Effect stick i.e., brand/model? It’d be interesting to know hot to get them “just in case”. Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello! I just remembered your message.

Here’s an article about the ones I bought (though I bought them through another site besides Amazon because I’m not an Amazon fan.

Anyway, the process is pretty easy, though there are some smallish cables to be careful about.

Engywuck,

Hey, thanks a lot. I’m not an Amazon fan as well, so I’d buy them elsewhere when/if needed.

I lost four sets of Joycon to drift. I even sent two in to be “repaired”. Talking to support was worthless - I’m convinced that the people I spoke to had never seen or used a Switch before. I don’t think they did anything other than calibrate them and send them back. I ended up buying a 20 pair of knockoff Joycon that have worked perfectly ever since.

deft,

what brand?

Dick_Justice,
@Dick_Justice@lemmy.world avatar

My old Amazon order says Vivefox, but they don’t seem to be for sale anymore. I’m pretty sure at the time there were a bunch of companies offering the same ones, like a Chinese dropship kind of thing.

Sniper,

repairing joycon drift is super easy. ifixit.com and the joystick modules are 5 bucks on amazon. People need to lose this fear over opening and repairing their own electronics.

rikudou,
@rikudou@lemmings.world avatar

Why, though? Let them fix it, if they’re selling broken. Especially here in Europe they have to fix it within a mandatory 2-year warranty.

Sniper,

Cause i’m never gonna let them fix it themselves after they lost one of my ($40) joycons then threw their hands up and said it was my fault. Plus it takes them 3 weeks to do it anyway which is a long time without the games console I paid for

Engywuck,

It’s 3 year in Spain, since Jan 2022 (just adding info).

A bunch of controllers have extremely obnoxious security bits required. I had to get two separate bit sets to open a bunch of controllers.

Watching Activision burn is great. What a shit company with shit ideas. No wonder another dumpster company like Microsoft wanted it. Shit sticks together brothers in arms 3 unlimited money and medals.

5 years is a long time. When Smash Ultimate came out, it was one of my favorite games ever. Now I hate Nintendo.

ted,

I did not see the last sentence of your comment coming. Caught me by surprise.

For people that hate Nintendo but like Nintendo games there’s always pirating if you have a good enough computer (or so I’ve heard)

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

Nah, I'd rather not give them my time or my money. If I'm playing Tears of the Kingdom, even pirated, it means that's time I'm not spending on games from companies that have more respect for their customers. If I pirated it, it also means I'd have thoughts on the game that I'd share with friends or forum users, and that would encourage more people to also buy the game. So no, they don't even get my illicit download.

fracture,

based

also i’m sorry, having done a similar journey

GARlactic, do gaming w Smash Ultimate reveals 5th anniversary event & confirms new content in 2024

Can the new content be not charging almost the full price of an entire new game for the DLC?

HawlSera,

It’s just spirits

AlolanYoda, do gaming w Smash Ultimate reveals 5th anniversary event & confirms new content in 2024

The “new content” is new spirits and new spirit board events, which is OK but not the incredible thing this headline is claiming

AFallingAnvil,

I fucking hate this article for giving me hope there’d be actual new content anyone gives a shit about like with Mario Kart 8

HawlSera,

Glad you mentioned that, because I thought maybe they were going to do one more round of dlc. Preferably one that focused on first party characters. I am a Nintendo fan, I don’t know who these sephiroth and Joker fellas are

It really does look like a texture glitch.

That fucking sucks if it’s intentional.

Wtf, happened to CoD? Such a hello kitty show.

SlacksMcTavish,

Things went out the window for me when Niki Minaj killed Messi with a neon green sub-machinegun. You’d think that would be a great game, but it’s a bit too much for my likings.

Sylvartas,

They usually get it right when they do “tacticool” stuff too. But this shit feels like they’re trying way too hard to appeal to the Fortnite crowd

Schmuppes,

I haven’t played any CoD games since maybe 2010 and thought you were being silly. Holy fucking shit.

BruceTwarzen,

I never really agreed when people said that they want their super realistic call of duty, but this really is just absurd. Even if these skins were free is would be obnoxious. At this point you can only blame the poeple who buy that garbage

Rubanski,

Lol I thought you were joking. There’s actually a Niki Minaj skin in the game, holy fuck haha

Zahille7,

And you’re not talking about Fortnite, correct?

verysoft,

People love it and spend $20+ on these skins over and over again.

@Fallstar 60 buck skin? What the actual hell? Have some self respect. Play something else

Fallstar,

Yeah, it is wild.

But people are free to spend money on whatever they like.

I waste plenty of money of Nerf blasters LOL.

Palacegalleryratio, do gaming w CoD players roast $60 Modern Warfare 3 skin that acts as an endless flashbang - Dexerto

Conversely I’ll just roast all CoD players, for continuing to play and spend money on a franchise with all the genuine creative vision of a photocopier and all the predatory financial behaviour of an online gambling website.

DrRatso, do gaming w CoD players roast $60 Modern Warfare 3 skin that acts as an endless flashbang - Dexerto

This site has the most infuriating privacy popup I have ever seen, theres a tab for 1400 partner consents. Like what?

neutron,

Malicious compliance mixed with “let’s see you click all that shit”. I don’t think the devs wanted to implement this…

Mkengine,

Have you tried Consentomatic? It usually takes care of those and deactivates them automatically.

DrRatso,

I actually opened it in safari just to see, but it did not seem like it managed to, at least on iOS.

Mkengine,

I don’t know how many people are behind this, but I think they implement the consent frameworks manually, so if it doesn’t work you can report the website in the extension and help other people in the future with your contribution!
