Wavebird wireless GameCube controller FTW! I still have mine, 20 years later. Still works too. I bust it out once or twice a year when we play Mario Party 5 or 7.
It's crazy that I still have a ton of gamecube controllers in perfect condition that have hundreds of hours of use each and yet I've got a box of useless joycons.
They literally don't make them like they used to.
I've had to throw away 3 Switch (3rd party) controllers due to drift issues, and I had to send my stock joy cons back to Nintendo for repair due to drift. Ridiculous.
Its not too difficult to swap out the thumb sticks with hall effect versions and (mostly) solve the drift problem.
Probably, but that's not the consumers responsibility to fix a defective product. Now maybe after many hours of use, but mine was drifting within the first year.
I still have my original joycons on my release day switch and never had an issue with the joycons on my oled or my other set bought used...I must be lucky
I broke my first one raging at Soul Calibur 2, but my replacement is still going strong!
Does anyone else get irrationally upset when people leave pizza boxes wide open like that? You're letting all the heat escape!
Meanwhile I have to keep everything I eat in a food warmer up until the very minute I'm about to eat it. Warm foods taste so much better when they're hot.
I want the heat to escape. I'm a weirdo who likes my food to be just above lukewarm.
What if you drop your controller? Do you want controller in your pizza? Pizza on your controller?
This is the same as the toilet lid conversation, isn’t it? If you’ve ever witnessed something falling in or even heard of it, for the love of god, why aren’t you keeping that closed when it’s not in use?
I'm lost as to how you got from food temperature to game controller?
Priority(controller) > priority(food temp)
Sometimes I don't turn on the light, so I don't have to turn it back off...am I doing this right?
I just take so long to eat anything that as much as I might savor those first hot bites, I know I can't eat fast enough to enjoy more than that unless I wanna warm it back up before every bite
Well that's where the food warmer comes into play. If you don't have one, then you can use the oven or toaster oven (set it to 140°F if it'll go that low). Take out one portion at a time and the rest will stay warm until you're ready to eat it. You can even add a small bowl of water to the bottom of the oven to help keep the food from drying out.
Gale of Darkness to replace Colosseum and I am sold. Give me a TV stand and a chair with a back and this is golden.
