Ruling the World?

Many tricks and traps are waiting for you on your adventure as you set off to obtain the seven world stones. Can someone really rule the world I wonder? Does anyone have a problem with that? Now, under my instructions, the hero “Kulu” and the beautiful goddess “Arika” shall depart on their adventure.

Any word on what they're doing about the stocking issues? This thing is sold out fucking everywhere. Locally and online. I can pay 399 for a bundle I don't want, but yeah. I just want the console at MSRP and that's become impossible. Haven't been able to find anything mentioning reshipment or stores restocking anytime soon.

There was a restock last Friday when Splatoon 2 came out from what I saw.

[Madeline]

Wow, and they're all gone already. Promising that when I get paid I'll actually be able to find one.

[Deader2818]

Ive seen these everywhere since last week, Best Buy, Walmart,Target etc, have all had them and been in stock. I guess its just this are though.

[Serra]

Gamestop listed some today, but bundled. Luckily they're bundling it with only one game and the game choices are the ones you'd probably want.
Zelda Bundle
Splatoon Bundle
Mario Kart 8 Bundle

[Madeline]

I'm just gonna bite the bullet and grab a bundle, yeah. I didn't see the ones for $359 the last time I checked gamestop. That's fine. The only ones I saw prior were listed at $399 and fuck that. I don't board game.

Here's hoping they last a few more days. I'm not holding my breath.

[jmc]

[Kaslo]

Why do developers feel the need to include motion controls just because the joycons can do motion controls? ugh.

Brawlout - Late 2017

Party fighting game, available now on Steam Early Access, and coming later to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Brawlout mixes the precision of violent fighters, with a gorgeous animated style.

Key Feature

• Streamlined combat - Brawlout does away with shields and blocking, focusing heavily on the aggressive, fast-paced combat which has made platform fighters so fun to both play and watch

• Action is kept fast and fluid - Advanced techniques like air dodging, wavedashes, directional influence on stun, ledge grabs or Rage Bursts.

• Vastly different combat styles - Each character is designed around a unique fighting style, to make each fight more strategic: grapple opponents, freeze them, dive kick their face, bomb them with projectiles or smash them with long range whips.

• Rage Meter - Powerful special attacks consume your Rage Meter. When filled up, your character gets much tougher.

Online Features

• A robust Ranked match system, complete with regional leaderboards

• 1v1 casual matches for low-stress competition

• 2-4 player private lobbies where players can practice or mess about to their heart’s content

• The Brawlout Network where players can check their fight stats, match history and replays
