Bsky has pretty good "NSFW tagging" tools. If people don't want to see that, they have the tools to hide it!

OK No here's the pitch: A Labo Trackball controller where you put a ball in a cardboard enclosure and put a joy-con below the ball and it uses the optical sensor to detect the ball's rotation NINTENDO HIRE ME

Honestly, base level iPad (simply called "iPad") is the one, unless the size of the iPad mini would be more comfortable for her. As for Apple Pencil, the "Apple Pencil USB-C" is the right pick.

RE:2)
he's basically THE "3D Mario" guy at Nintendo. I have loved just about every single game he's worked on so I have zero reason to believe Bananza (which I do believe he's heading up) will be anything short of amazing

My reasons for buying it:
1) The subtitle
2) Yoshiaki Koizumi can do no wrong
3) It comes out on my birthday and is therefore a personal birthday gift to me from Nintendo (I still have to pay my own money for it but that’s okay)

To each their own!

I do feel the need to reiterate: "Bananza" is, maybe, the best video game subtitle I've *ever* heard

I was literally playing this moments ago and said “DK Ass” when I saw the words “DK Pass.” Glad I’m not the only one!

I wonder if Nintendo's got 'em all hushed for now until they have a direct?

The ZR Button wasn't registering inputs reliably. It'd "click" but I had to press in particularly firmly for it to reliably register.

My SO's been letting me borrow her Right Joy-Con 2 which I've appreciated... but I do miss having my own. Look how lonely my left Joy-Con looks without it...

I really enjoyed you on that podcast! My two thoughts were “wow @jeffgerstmann.com should have this guy on more often, he’s a great fit for the show” and also “I bet this guy gets a haircut within the next few days”

"[Publisher] should put [Game] on Switch 2"

I'd love to see you do a side-by-side comparison on Giant Bomb, with the GameCube version running on one side of the video and the Switch 2 emulated version on the other.

But I don't even know where to begin on the topic of "is it good or bad, culturally, that this one extremely large corpo entity has commercialized, to immense financial success, the childhood-endemic play of slamming action figures from different brands together." That's for someone smarter than me.

Fortnite as an entity, seems to be the biggest "catalyst" for this. That game is a massive collection of humanoid characters somehow legally cleared/licensed and thrown into one big cultural vat. Honestly it's impressive on a licensing level that they've managed to do it and get away with it.

However: it's a recent cultural phenomenon for this franchise mashup to happen on a corporate level, whether it be due to the kids in the first generation of "figure-based play" now working for those companies, or those companies seeing profit in facilitating that style of play, or both.

Putting on my "smart boy" hat for a second:
As long as there has been "action figures" there has been imaginative crossover, insofar as kids like to take different franchises' figures and play with them together. This is endemic to figure-based play patterns in children.
