I had a bad experience with matchmaking but it worked fine when I was throwing down with mntwins1991. At least on my end it looked fine. Anyway the matchmaking problem is real and probably unfixable because Nintendo

Not long ago I was at brunch and there was a 10ish year old girl and her dad near me. The girl had headphones in and was watching Sonic Adventure speedruns or let's plays or something the entire time. It was so weird that I wondered if she might have been on the spectrum. Either that or an extremely bad relationship with weekend dad

Walker was a lot better than Helton but I think they might both get in honestly, they were popular among their peers which is maybe the most important thing

This confirms that the hall will put Larry Walker via the Veterans' committee. But probably not. Fergie Jenkins is lonely as the only Canadian baseball hall of famer.

I was trying to think of a relevant person and Walker is one for sure. I think he will probably get voted in by them

His WAR is about the same as Tulo and Ryan Zimmerman. Then you get into the guys above him who are still solidly not HoF guys

Also FWIW he was a veteran's committee selection and I thought those guys were usually not as good. Not that I'm excusing it but I don't know if I'd say it makes that the "standard", though feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

You're right about the veterans committee and we all knew Lee Smith was getting in because of them (his admittance isn't egregious imo without looking into it) but I'm still shocked by this, it never even occurred to me that this would happen

He's probably now the worst player in the hall. He had like two or three years where he played at an almost elite ish level. If he's the standard the standard is now so low that you should probably let in Jacoby Ellsbury and you should definitely let Ryan Braun in

I asked for it for my birthday.

I don't like to think outside the box so I'd probably just predict the same stuff that everyone has already mentioned/spread rumors about before. Steve, Banjo, Isaac and Geno. I know you're joking with your list but Crash doesn't seem all that out there to me

Edit: Actually Steve is like the only one that makes much sense because why would you make DLC of a legacy character instead of something that is actually recent? Though I guess since Cloud was DLC anything is possible

Not joking, I'd bet money that I hit on at least one of the Capcom ones

You're right, people do say it's better without items, because it obviously is if you're interested in smash as a fighting game and not a sub for Mario kart at a party (which it's also a far inferior party game because the skill gap is extremely high in smash) But you are allowed to play how you want and no one would dream of saying otherwise.

the song when you launch Smash Bros makes me want to take a drive in South America

Smash songs with vocals are always pretty bad especially when compared to the gigantic music library the games come with. Anyway based on a classic mode run I think Shulk feels much better in this one.

I haven't unlocked him yet, I only have 11 of 72 characters now and those two I mentioned are the only ones I've played so far. He never really seemed that good to me in Smash 4 though, fucking around with the monado settings was a cool idea but kind of annoying if you're trying to win

Just played a lil smash on my lunch break. I ran classic mode twice. Once with Link and once with the character I unlocked after the Link one.

Link feels very good but I definitely need to get some reps in to feel confident playing this game. Making his bombs into the remote bombs from BotW is extremely

King K. Rool is good as hell. They will be a huge noob character in early online play. Little Mac with that HUGE side smash but better and safer to play.

Now I won't be reviewing all 72 characters but I wanted to post about them. That's all

Our older brother actually got me and Brian a Sega Genesis version of that like five years ago for Christmas. Classic gift you get when the person you're buying for doesn't need anything. Anyway here's what was cool about it: the pads were very much Genesis pads, and it boasted like 120 games and about 20 of them were for real Genesis games of varying quality. The older brother and I spent that Christmas Eve morning running some golden axe and what have you and had a great time.

Here's the bad stuff: the pads were wireless via infrared. You had to have them pointing at the console or it wouldn't work. I got my ass handed to me by random thugs in Streets of Rage 2 (still holds up btw) because I couldn't move until we realized that the button inputs were shooting out lasers. It was truly terrible. Besides that, there's a basic problem that for as cool as Sega was back then, there's only probably 15 or so games that are still worth playing at all and most will bore you pretty quickly. But besides personal preference, the thing was LOADED with fake games. 2600 looking ass garbage called Tennis or Helicopter or whatever. So they juiced the number on the box by including a ton of games that weren't even Sega games. It was so stupid and they were so bad.

On soulja boys website where you order the console, there's a dropdown menu to select what color you want and the only option is white
https://souljawatch.com/collections/frontpage/products/souljagame-handheld

How is this so good? You know they used to (and maybe still do) sell these at mall kiosks when I was a kid. Like $50 for 900 games. Even as a kid I could tell it was too good to be true even as the Russians at the kiosk showed me duck hunt. SouljaGame Console has taken this to the next level though since now you can use it to play Destiny 2 without an internet connection (probably)

My mom just moved but she still has the old house for a little while. My bike was there but I lost the key to the u lock so it had just been sitting there locked up for over a year. I decided to go and get it this morning before the house gets ready to be sold. I froze the lock with a can of compressed air (surprisingly easy to use one of them as like a freeze Ray) and wailed on it with a hammer for five solid minutes. My bicep is very sore now. It didn't work. I know my dad spent a lot of money on this lock but I still thought I'd be able to bash it open. I freed the lock from the wall anyway but it's still attached to the bike which is now unusable in my apartment. Do I have to walk my damn bike to a friggin locksmith and are they even going to help someone who has obviously been trying to break a lock
