I think they look good - they have a more realistic approach to how they could look, scaly, furry, humanoid. But now that you mention it, Mr. Mime does look a bit creepy and could easily star in IT 3. This looks way better than I would ever have thought.

Fixed. I saw some non-spoilery stuff as well, and it turns out Eevee might be the better choice after all...!

I thought that as well.

Plus, unlike Eevee, Pikachu can actually be useful.

91 GB - that's a lot of Switch cartridges. So it probably won't come out on Switch then.

Yeah. I don't get any real exercise and I'm just getting thinner with no upper body strength. Also, it's rather low intensity, it takes me about 35 minutes to go that distance (14-15 km). So by more exercise I mean more high intensity exercise.

It's very popular for offices in my field to have a daily plank "challenge" where we just meet up and lie in the plank for a set amount of time, for us it's four minutes and then after 2 minutes some vary it by doing side planks for 30 seconds. Then some stop after those two and a few others go for four minutes with the last minute being the normal plank again. I don't do the side plank but in the beginning, a little more than a month ago, I failed at 3 minutes. Now I go for four minutes straight with the last 20 seconds being really painful - I'm the only one that doesn't do the side plank so I feel awesome afterwards. It's a nice little ritual, I think. Other than that, I'm still struggling to do some exercise during the weekdays and then I only get out once during the weekend. On the other hand, biking 28-30 km every day keeps my fitness level alright but I miss doing weights so I'm thinking about just taking the car a couple of times a week to save a bit of time and get some exercising done during the evenings.

Don't know if this has been said on here but GRIS is releasing on December 13th. A new trailer has been released:

Well that explains it then!

Aren't there some games that you can just archive? I do this a lot, especially with single-player games as I rarely return to them after completing them. This way, a 128 GB SD card provides plenty of storage.

I hope to get a review copy of it - otherwise I'll probably not get it at launch but later down the line.

Moonlighter is out today

Ah, I had PoGo running in the background. However, I don't find Google Fit quite accurate when biking. May try it again at some point.

I think Adventure Sync is available to all now. Tried it out today and while it's nice to get some distance without having the app open, it's definitely not as accurate as it doesn't update the GPS as frequently as Pokémon Go itself. That means I missed about 400 meters of 1.2 km as it just measured the distance as the crow flies (is that the correct bird in English or is that just from Game of Thrones?). So will probably keep PoGo open in my pocket instead.

I'm at about 22 % through the game (2.5 hours) and it's for the most part just got worse. But I've seen some reviews, and most mention that it has some frustrating moment but they still say it's a good game. I just feel like it's not a good design and I had hoped for a casual platformer as well. I find that most frustrations would be gone if Tako could just take a couple of hits before dying.

I'm playing through Save me mr. Tako now - anybody tried it? It's a tribute to the GameBoy era, a good tribute. However, the game is frustratingly hard but not because of clever challenges but rather because you die from one hit and there are no powerups in the levels at all. You can get a hat (that gives you some ability) that allows you to be hit twice before you die but once you lose it, you have to exit the level to get it back. This is a bad mechanic and makes the game harder than it should be. Also, enemies just appear from the right and surprise you, or they can haunt and target you in small places where you can't really avoid them. I'm just not enjoying the game at all and just want to know if anyone has tried it and feels the same? It's a shame because it looks and plays like a GameBoy game (more specifically, a hard Kirby game!) but the gameplay just isn't there and I don't know if it's intentional or just bad design.

Never put much time into the 3DS version myself, mainly because I couldn't really put the effort into it with the controls. They hindered my enjoyment in the game, my hands cramped and the control stick just didn't do it for me.

I've booked some vacation with December 7th being the last day so will also be off when this hits. That's awesome. Also had the day off when Smash 4 hit.

A week off for Pokémon Let's Go? I don't think that game is going to last that long.

My first thought as well but it's possible to do it without doing the motion. https://www.vgr.com/heres-how-to-catch-pokemon-in-lets-go-pikachu-and-eevee-without-motion-controls/ https://nordic.ign.com/switch/19250/news/pokemon-lets-go-works-without-motion-controls-but-theres-a-c https://gadgets.ndtv.com/games/news/pokemon-lets-go-pikachu-and-eevee-for-nintendo-switch-dont-use-motion-controls-in-handheld-mode-nint-1923684 So it seems that they reverted the decision that you have to use motion controls. It's just better to do so. I'm really excited to hear about how this game plays in handheld mode.

The game(s) won't support Pro Controllers, by the way. Weird choice.

Attended a Raid for Giratina yesterday and got it on my second-to-last ball. Phew. It was at an Ex Raid Gym so I hope I get a pass for the next Ex Raid - however, they tend to be on work days around noon so I won't get my hopes up for being able to attend.

I regret getting Mario Kart physically so going digital with Smash for sure. Also preordering it.

English trailer So.. the Event-like battles from Spirits are the stages of this World of Light adventure mode?

So.. Piranha Plant is post-launch characeter - but is it one of the five confirmed DLC packs?
