Yeah, popularity has no bearing on how many times Scorpion will actually win. Anecdotal, but, despite being trash at this game, any time I go up against a Scorpion player online, I tend to win. Read more

It’s okay. I was a Battlefield wookie once. Read more

There are a lot of subtle things like that that may contribute to people picking Scorpion. He’s the first character the tutorial lets you play as. Your little icon thing when you go online defaults to Scorpion. I didn’t notice that he was the default character on the selection screen, though! Read more

FWIW I do not mean “gods” as in “the specific players that the hardcore community labels the best players of all time.” That said, as some of the commentators said in this tournament, it’s getting to the point where some of these top players could at least be considered “demi-gods.” Read more

Honestly it would be weird if our Pokemon-centric subsite did not cover one of the biggest Pokemon-related things to happen on the internet this week. That said I sympathize with being barraged with the same thing in multiple places! Read more

In conclusion, Twitter is the worst. Read more

Oh really? What does she say? Read more

We like to have fun here every once in a while. We are talking about video games after all. Read more

I think the dude-broness adds to it! I’m not saying it’s good, mind, but it can be entertaining in a very silly way. The all-women version of Ghost Adventures is worse. Read more

Yeah, that’s correct. That’s what happens. Read more

If it seems on the nose, it’s because her stream is satire. She intentionally baits people who think she’s doing some breast stream. People play along. The result is that you can’t tell who is in on the joke and who legitimately thinks she’s the character she plays on her stream. Read more

That would make a lot of sense! The PS4 does this thing where it blacks out messages you get for anyone that’s watching on the stream. More games/systems/services should find ways to keep info like this safe, especially as streaming becomes more popular.

Damn. I was trying to get a sense of how often this happens, and it seems like it’s not unusual? Hell it even seemed like some people were actively looking for streams to do this with. But who knows! Read more

Yep, you should be able to play VC games on it. I think the only tip that doesn’t apply to the 2DS here is the Breakout one. That said, if people have 2DS-specific tips, please do share! Read more

I can’t find an option to turn it off, other than simply letting the game blow up on your screen/not displaying it in its native resolution, unfortunately. Read more

Not porn, obviously. Read more

Good to know! I’d only tried it with VC, but I will edit this in. Thanks! Read more

There are also occasional sales. It’s often not much, but still: Nintendo games don’t really go down in price at retail stores, so! Read more

Stephen jokingly suggested a headline around the lines of 'The Hoopla About Hoopa,' haha. Read more

It's not. But again: the context is that there was a ton of hype for this specific unreleased Pokemon. People were expecting it to sound cool, not cutesy, I guess! Read more
