Oh yeah, speaking of Capture Cards, forgot to mention it here, but for the longest time I had an issue with audio pops/crackling with my Elgato 4K X. Eventually they confirmed the issue dealt with AsMedia USB-C controllers (The most common one...) and suggested using a 5GB USB-A port instead... 🧵

Problem with that, is it couldn't capture at 4K60 at that speed, which, ya know, is kind of the reason you would buy one!! So some said to use a PCIe expansion card that DOESN'T use an AsMedia controller. That also was difficult to find. 🧵

Eventually I got this relatively affordable PCIe to USB-C card from Sonnet who uses their OWN controllers. Lo and behold, NO MORE AUDIO CRACKLING!! Now, it's incredibly stupid that I had to resort to a "solution" like this, considering they found out about this issue TWO YEARS AGO, but whatever...

My Star-Crossed World Kirby Canon video is over 60% edited now. REALLY trying to get it done for Saturday, but at the VERY least, it will be ready for NEXT Saturday! (It will also be over 14 minutes long)

Okay, so Marx & The Novas is the oldest Kirby Canon remake on my channel, the 5th shortest clocking at just 4 minutes, and has that "old era" quality going for it. Realistically, I can't see any REAL huge lore for Air Riders, but I'll take any excuse to redo it at this point.

Fun Fact: Now that we have a release date for Metroid Prime 4, we can say for sure it will take 3096 Days (6/13/17 - 12/4/2025) to release from the original announcement. The time between the ANNOUNCEMENT of the DSi to the LAUNCH of the Switch was 3074 days! (10/2/08 - 3/3/17)

Only played for about 2 hours so far, but I can already tell this game is going to be truly incredible! One early challenge stage stumped me for a bit trying to play it like a Mario game before realizing: "Wait, what am I doing? I'm freaking DONKEY KONG!" Definitely going to take my time with this!

Oh yeah, here we go baby! About to play what I feel is the TRUE start of the Switch 2 generation

Played in the Mario Kart 8 Tournament again this year, Good news! I made it to the finals!! Bad news: I came in last in the finals...quite humbling indeed.

Today, I ran into someone I hadn’t seen in 18 yrs. I met them at a GameStop event when I was 17 and we talked for hours about how I wanted to be a YouTuber. They ended up finding my videos, realized I was that same guy, and I remembered his name when he walked up to me today.

Hey guys, I will once again be at TooManyGames this year/weekend. Still won't be doing anything special, but will be around Friday & Sunday if you wanted to say hi or something! I will be wearing this lanyard and one of these two shirts!

Okay, two months later and I finally got around to beating this game! Gotta say, it was pretty hard to finish. I feel like there was a LOT of potential for greatness, but it got repetitive QUICK. Having to hold down the L/R buttons for so long, WITH RUMBLE, sure didn't help... (RIP trigger finger)

Now that the 110+ hour behemoth is finished, my next game is a shorter little gem we most certainly will NEVER see a sequel to...

Okay, I just recently played this game a few months ago. If you like Kirby, or either/both of the games TobyFox has developed, I REALLY think you should pick this game up for the price. One of those that's better played as unknown to the concept as possible!

Wandersong is $4.99 on Steam buff.ly/X0FCIXE Deck playable

Decided the best way to find out, is to do it myself! I played Tetris Effect Connected, as that Tetris game seemed EXTRA sensitive with the inputs, where every time it would misregister a hard drop, it would sometimes drop SEVERAL at once. (1/2)

Okay, looking up reports of the Switch 2 Pro Controller's D-Pad, a lot of people seemed to think it was a huge improvement, but now I see a couple saying it's just as bad as the Switch 1's? Can anyone who plays Tetris/Fighting games confirm which of the two is true?...

After playing for a while, I only had it misread a hard drop/shift once EACH. While still not perfect by ANY stretch, it's definitely something I can tolerate for semi-casual play, unlike the LAST one! If I WAS to play more competitively, I'll stick with the Joy-con grip... (2/2)

I was genuinely curious if anyone who helped develop Drill Dozer is currently with WayForward, as the bosses, villains, and pixel art seem STRAIGHT out of that company, despite being made by GameFreak. What I got was possibly the most inaccurate statement I have ever read.

Overheard a conversation where two people were discussing Madden. One guy said it's basically the same game each time. The other guy defended it saying "ALL fighting games are the same too!" I'm not even good at, or into, fighting games, but that kind of defense is a STRETCH!

Ya know, the Wii U had a LOT of issues, most of which involve the GamePad, but I will say this: Wind Waker HD would NOT be the same without it! Having that map on hand while sailing, or being able to see which way you're standing to direct wind makes things SOOO much better!

There is one last game I wanted to play and finish before the Switch 2 releases. A remake of one of my favorite Zelda games of all time that I put off for almost 12 years... Will it hold up, or is my love for the game pure nostalgia? We shall see!

Well, I can tell it's been a REALLY long time since I touched an actual Wii U game on this thing. My GamePad's battery life is less than two hours! Thing has definitely been SEVERELY overdue for a battery replacement...

A bit over 24 hours after the Dream Display, will now remove the video off my channel. Didn't feel like it was a video worth keeping, but just wanted to give everyone a fun little update who DIDN'T watch the original. I instead just updated the 'Wake Up' video's description to say I got a Switch 2!

I never clapped, or gave a standing ovation to a video game of all things, but OH MY GOODNESS, this was probably the first time I EVER wanted to... That game was simply INCREDIBLE from start to finish!

I keep putting this game off saying how I "Don't have time" and "It's waaay too long for me to finish!" Well, that's it, no more procrastinating, the Band-Aid's coming off NOW! We're DOING THIS!!!

I swear, these past few days have been the biggest freaking whiplash of Switch 2 news, or Nintendo news in general I have ever freaking experienced. I... I just want to play Kirby... Is that really so much to ask?... 😞
