Mii costumes this time around are pretty head-tilting, mostly because of how Lloyd seems like an incredibly obvious one to pair with Pyra & Mythra - both RPGs with a similar aesthetic and he has a two swords gimmick in his own right.
Probably doesn't mean anything but he's the last SSB4 Mii skin standing so we'll see I suppose. ... I can't claim to really have any interest at all in the Tales games to be honest.

Can't wait to see all the new stuff they put on the Switch Upgrade while they use the same piece of shit joycons

Got some playtime as Pyra and Mythra and over all they're pretty enjoyable. Something I'll really give the Second Fighter's pass is that while all four of the fighters in question aren't terribly exciting to me (with me not being into AMRS, Minecraft or Xenoblade and preferring a non VII Final Fantasy character) they all have been been fun to play as with their mechanics. By comparison, the first pass had two characters that I never really got into that much in Joker and Hero in terms of moveset while also have one that is fun but still never felt wholly natural to me in Terry.
If nothing else within the context of Smash itself, the Second Pass is batting strongly.

Pyra and Mythra's Classic mode is majorly making these two start off on the wrong foot with me. For some reason the computer utterly refuses to actually fight me and repeatedly tanking my score by running away for ages. I'm on my sixth damn attempt at it and haven't reached the halfway point yet.
Edit: Had fun with them once I managed to actually get some fights at least, grabbed the 9.9 to continue having all of those done. I'll need to make room for Strikers on my main Switch later, partially for the Sophia Spirit, partially so I can get Last Surprise and Take Over in it. Really sucks that Arthur's going to be a blaring gap in my collection for awhile because not dropping $30 just for a Spirit, though might pick up the game some other time.

Digivolving mechanic throughout the fight would probably be pretty cool and even having never been a fan of Digimon Agumon vs. Pikachu would be pretty awesome.

Been replaying Xenoblade 2. I'd been meaning to for awhile anyway, then the Pyra and Mythra thing got me more in the mood for it; my previous attempt to go through it had stalled out right at the start of chapter 3. I just caught up to that point and have much more of a feel for the game this time, really enjoying this go around of it.

In North America they presently have 35% off Mario Maker 2, Super Mario Party, Tennis Aces, and Luigi's Mansion 3.
I already have Mario Maker and Luigi's Mansion, not really interested in the other two (though if Party had more than four boards and could be played handheld I'd have gotten it a long time ago), but thought I'd relay it.
Edit: Mario & Sonic is also included but isn't listed with the others for some reason.

There's another Monster Hunter event coming up at the top of the hour if anyone cares. Three actually for the next three days.

Finally got so thoroughly fed up with the, "Ganged on by five people the second the game starts, out almost immediately with absolutely zero that can be done about it," bullshit in Tetris 99 that I just deleted my save data so that I never have reason to touch it again. Happened to me like six games in a row. I had every one of the special themes to this point but this game is just so torturous to play during these stupid events that I wanted to just stop bothering.

So it's been confirmed that the ARMS graphic novel was cancelled, and this is leading to a lot of doom-mongering about how the game itself is just going to be a one-and-done Nintendo wants nothing to do with now, as though comics don't fall through all the time. Apparently ARMS selling very well doesn't count because it was early in the console's lifespan or doesn't have a very active community or whatever.
Personally I never did buy it myself - too shallow of an experience to be worth the $60 - but I could see myself buying a sequel so long as it had a story mode and expanded the roster.

I thought ARMS was really lame though I like some of the character designs. Felt half-baked and there was almost no content. I hope there’s a sequel for the fans but I’m not clamoring for one.

Spent about 30 minutes playing ARMS on a free trial weekend. Didn’t get into it at all, I’d much rather see them go back to Punch Out if they wanna do a boxing game

Or Nintendo's going in a different direction with the sequel that the comic doesn't line up with.

Did anyone else get RetroMania Wrestling for the Switch? I just got it in the mail today, but there's no cartridge or download code included, unless I'm overlooking it.
