@slimerancher same! I have all four, so far finished only 1.

Also need to finish the last boss in Metroid Dread and finish Prime 1 in time for Prime (2, 3 and) 4.

@slimerancher ,

hopefully finishing Darksiders 2.

@ngwoo, I really enjoyed the old text-based ones when I was younger. I played the original Where in the World and I think so the Where in Time. But those were early gaming days and I was younger too.

So I'm curious, but not too excited.

@picandocodigo

@TAG @astrsk , there is a demo for (at least one, if not more) Fitness Boxing (games). Try it out.

For me, I much prefer Ring Fit, as it provides more varied exercise, and for kinda boxing I play ARMS.

@QuarterSwede, I hold no nostalgia to any of the (S)NES games, but that one does look intriguing

@picandocodigo

@picandocodigo, gameplay-wise seems like inverse Fight'n'Rage. That one was a very fighting/combo-inspired beat'em'up, while this looks more like a beat'em'up-inspired fighting game.

@slimerancher

@picandocodigo, check out other Zelda videos by TerminalMontage for where it came from.

@Entropy, @MetricIsRight, awesome, thank you both.

I still have a set of spares, but once I’m through those, I’ll get the hall effect ones.

My current gripe is to get the right rail to fit tighter so the right joycon does not lose connection. I’m thinking of adding some teflon. (One of the screws’ heads is too worn out to disassemble fully)

@Entropy, do they also feel good? I heard conflicting reports on that part. @slimerancher

@JonDorfman, right, but Hall effect analogue sticks themselves have existed for a long time, so that technology in general (except any novel addition) is (most likely) not patented anymore.

@JonDorfman, I did a quick online search for Nintendo’s JoyCon patents, and interestingly found a US one from 2023 (2020 in Japan) about what looks Hall effect analogue sticks:
https://patents.google.com/patent/US20230280850A1/

@JonDorfman I wonder how they would do that while also not violating patents on JoyCons that I suppose Nintendo has.

I have not checked, but would be surprised if they do not.

@JonDorfman, what legal challenges?

@Cicraft

@slimerancher, de gustibus, I guess :) @TORFdot0

@TORFdot0, Phantom is the best character in any Mario game IMHO :blobaww: @slimerancher

@StarServal, you mean patents (not copyright), since it is about inventions.

And there is at least one hall effect controller patent that already expired. It is from 1988, so hall effect joysticks are not a new thing at all.

@slimerancher

@Squirrel, there is a demo, if you're interested.

@doomgazer

@slimerancher, dunno about Tetris 99, but I totally switched to Tetris Effect and love it. That one is still very alive online.
