I love Pikmin 3

I also love how they all fail in one way or another at their job but by the end of it, they've grown as people in some way and can save their planet.

It's actually kinda crazy to me.

3's heroes were basically the apex of Koppai, a botanist tasked with finding edible fruit, enough to save her entire planet.

An engineer made to keep a tiny interstellar working for weeks.

And a captain with the social skills to stop them putting heads.

Busy isn't as bad as the reputation, but Nintendo really, absolutely, undoubtedly, should have offered a gyro pointer and touch solution for NSO mouse games.

10 sources disagree.

God AI is bad, but ironically searching the AI text causes the AI Overview to error out and serves the actual Nintendo Supply article. What. The. Hell.

Mobile Google search for "5 Reasons Why Pikmin's Oatchi Bel..."

First Result:

AI Overview - Reddit, Wikipedia, unknown source, +7 other sources.

AI says: There are no factual reasons why Oatchi belongs in a blender, as Oatchi is a beloved and helpful companion in Pikmin 4, designed to enhance gameplay and assist the player, not to be a food

And so on.

“Trump is such an accessible President … Anytime the camera's around and reporters are around, it can turn into a press conference … President Obama almost never responded to shouted questions … Trump upended that when he came into the White House.”

an image of JFK looking at the camera very JFKingly with the 4chan post "it's actually far worse than you think" meme.

Correction, Gold Point claim period is TWO YEARS in Europe, meaning Xenobladr Chronicles DE's won't expire - even on future prints, until the 20th of March 2027. Yep.

I wonder if there were any digital games you could pre-order in March that still aren't out?

Elly Octobrush @realphantomhours.bsky.social · 16h

Until the first anniversary of the release, Xenoblade Chronicles X DE copies will continue to give Gold Points. Released on March 20th. Just before the cutoff of March 24th. So, 2026-03-20.

Any digital pre-orders made before then that are still standing will ALSO grant gold once paid for.

And 60% is a solid majority that wins a FPTP election.

She doesn't NEED them. That's just... The truth! Whether it's strategically wise to voice it is different, KINDA, but.

Some people who sat out the last election might actually want to hear what she's saying.

This is REALLY cute, but I wish the Gold tank would disappear. I know some physical games will continue to distribute points for some time, but you know, at least get rid of it when it's at zero?

See this is why I dislike her. All I saw in the interview was her getting annoyed when someone said something obviously wrong. But this is actually bad.

But this seems entirely reasonable and correct?

Of course she wants every vote and of course, the gubernatorial race of CALIFORNIA can be won without Trump voters.

What's the issue here? "Don't ask me the same question seven times"?
