  1. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    If that starts happening, quit after the next match and re-start ranked. You'll then get a different bunch of people, who'll be bad/good until you become That Guy.

  3. I Had a Random Thought (About Video Games)

    Imported DS games will work on your 3DS, as I have Japanese DS games I can play on my 3DS. but the weird mingling thing for PP (which is basically Streetpass before streetpass was a thing) won't work on your UK 3DS if you have an import copy. I think the mingle thing will work with my UK copy, but it'll be pointless any ways, as nobody else will be using it. Which is a shame. Sure thing. PM me your Address and I'll send it over (providing that it's at home, which I'm pretty sure it is) Take your time and enjoy it!

    You're more than welcome to borrow my copy if you want, which is a UK copy.
  5. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

    Yeah, I feel that this is a common misconception which people attribute to a broken R button. You only hold on after a full slashing animation, so if you're unlucky, you can start the animation as soon as it starts flailing, and it feels like you're not holding on. I'm good for some MH4U tomorrow!
  6. anime

    It's mostly just boring. There's only one character, maybe 2, who I really like. The main lass is annoying, and worries over literally nothing. It's pretty, but that's not really saying much from KyoAni, as it's their generic anime style they've been perfecting for years now. K-On is better, but neither of them holds a candle against Sakamichi no Apollon as far as musical anime is concerned. Personally, I wouldn't bother, but I'm also still watching it, so what do I know?
  7. Ouran Boast Club - Planning an Anime Podcast

    Lady Squirrel's theory (as a Japanese linguist) is because the 'n' in Ending isn't a stressed syllable, whilst the D is. Same with OPening. Also it's hard for japanese people to say 'N' on it's own, as Japanese is sylabic. If that makes sense. Also 'English' in Japan is usually represented by the first kanji of 'eigo', apparently.

    Ugh totally. Related:
  9. Ouran Boast Club - Planning an Anime Podcast

    HA! Amazing! I know what my next avatar is going to be now.
  10. Ouran Boast Club - Planning an Anime Podcast

    Yeah, I really did. I'm working on it though! Lady Squirrel also voiced the same opinions too. Also that I was wrong in a lot of instances/cases, especially about School Days. I certainly aspire to explain my references more! I dunno, I feel like we're on even ground in this aspect. I have to confess, I have never watched DBZ. Started watchin DB though.
  11. anime

    It's a real gateway drug. Even now I go to conventions and see lazy-ass L cosplays. Also, if you don't mind reading it online, you can totally read it online for free, even with minor illegalities. like it being illegal. But if that doesn't bother you, batoto.net is your man!
  12. The terrible wallet scourge of the Amiibo.

    A quick PSA: there's a Marth amiibo going at my local game shop for £15. Would anyone want it?
  13. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

    It's under Event Quests in the Gathering/Elder Hall. And it's not too late at all. There are still loads of people who do gathering hall for fun, even if they're G-Rank.
  14. Nintendo 3DS

    go to the main menu, and click on the orange face at the very top middleish. You should have your name there on the top screen with you code.
  15. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    Do your main skills give you more than your sub skills? also, that crossover is amazing. Partially because I'm amazed Nintendo would even consider it. It's so common for Nintendo to let other companies include their mascots in their titles (like MH4U), but the other way round? I can't even think of one example! I wonder if we'll even get it over here? I have no idea how popular that anime is. (I didn't really enjoy it when I watched it)
  16. Nintendo 3DS

    Honestly, I don't know. I just talk about them a lot, and then people either say 'what are you on about' or just engage in the conversation. I'm also a developer, so I guess it comes with the territory that there's a high interest in games. At the last place I worked at, I spotted people wearing game-related tees, which was a bit of a give away. As for my current place, it's a tiny company (about 20 people), so you know everyone's interests here pretty quickly. I would bug him into downloading the demo, and playing that with him. It's what got my work colleague into it. I would also be up for some MH4U at lunch, but our company doesn't have good interent, or WiFi. When we do, I'll be totally down for that.
  17. Nintendo 3DS

    Yeah. I played 52 hours of X Zone, and I have no idea why either. It was kinda lame, but not lame enough to not want to play it. And the fighting was strangley enjoyable too. I should really go back and finish that game. I play MH4U with a colleague every lunch time. According to my play stats, I've amassed 184 Hours. It is only second place though, to an astonishing 278:04 hours played on Animal Crossing. Damn.
  18. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    Flippin' Judd misinforming me like that. dumb mog. I'd be more interested in the ink savers too. Oh man, I noticed them, but thought that it was just a cute thing they added to some! I didn't know it actually had a reason. Amazing.
  19. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    I love ranked mode. I had the most amazing arc of starting out hating it, because it's so different to turf wars, so much so that I turned off Splatoon angrily after I lost like 5 times in a row. Then grumpily trying to play Final Fantasy 0, but not enjoying it because splatoon was on my mind. I then went back to splatoon, and then everything just clicked, and it was an amazing, beautiful moment. I love this game. For me, I think it was like level 8 or 10 before he sold it to me? I could have imagined it, it was quite a while ago. Even then, 10-15k is a huge amount, especially starting out, where you only get around 200-300 per match. The amount you get does increase as you level up though. Also, do skills stack? I have seen some hints by Judd which indicates that they don't, and that it's best to have a wide range of skills instead of all the same.
  20. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    I got to B- in ranked last night. Does anyone know if you can go down ranks? I used mines really efficiently last night in the zones to kill people trying to take over. I don't think this is that good an advice. Ordering 3 star gear comes at a huge price, which you won't get at all quickly at that level, unless you have the amiibo's. on top of which, Spyke won't sell you 3 star gear until you're an appropriate level. I'd say to stick to low star gear, because they level up quicker, and at the price for one piece of 3 star gear that has 3 extra slots + 1 regular slot is more expensive than 3 1 star gear with 3 slots + the extra 3 for each gear. Also it takes a day to order, and you can only order 1 a day. You might as well just fight and level up naturally.
  21. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    So, I just noticed something about this image. In the ridiculous controller at the top, the a, down and ZL + ZR are all highlighted in red on that image. Maybe it was meant to be a hint at how you can unlock that mode? It would make sense for Nintendo to put it in as a fun little extra, and then decide to spill the beans any ways to get more likes. Now I want to scour every scroll page to find more hidden junk. Also, the flip book thing on the bottom right of the page is the best. I love Nintendo.
  22. Wake Me Up Before You IndieGoGo: A Crowdfunding Thread

    I've known about polybius for a long time. Whilst It'd be super interesting to watch, I doubt that there's going to be anything interesting or new that they'll uncover that I didn't already know from the things going round on the Internet.
  23. Fallout 4 — Boston Makes Me Feel Good

    It would be excellent/the worst if it was just a film announcement. But yeah, I'm really looking forward to jumping back into the wasteland sometime soon.
  24. I Had a Random Thought (About Video Games)

    I'm pretty sure they were talking about crysis 1, and that the reason why there isn't any multiplayer is because they haven't rigged the bodies to move when looking over cover. Someone modded the game to force the third person perspective and that's what the hilarious result was. As for where the video is, I have no idea.
  25. Splatoon is Ink-redible

    Oh man, I didn't know ranked matches were now a thing! I guess I know what I'm doing tonight! Have any of you guys tried staring at Cala and Mari in the home hub bit yet? If you do it long enough they do a very patronising wave to you, and it's hilarious. Oh man I didn't notice! Sorry! I tried joining your game the night before but to no avail! I'll look out for you next time! Were you in the match where we won by 0.1%? Pretty intense stuff! Conversely to all of you guys, I really like the skatepark. It fits the theme of the game the best, and transforming into a squid and jumping up ramps is the best. Also that central tower is a really great advantage point to hold, and you can pull off some really neat tricks in order to gain control of it. I absolutely love this game.
