I'm a Nintendo and indie games lover on the autism spectrum. I'm never gonna stop playing, and you're never gonna make me.

Alright, Mario vs. DK. I think you're fun. You're a solid, cute little puzzle experience that I'm glad I get to play on the Switch since I missed out on the original GBA release.

SLIPPERY SUMMIT CAN KISS MY ENTIRE ASS. With how Mario controls, WHAT made you think ICE PHYSICS were a good idea?! And this is a NEW ADDITION to the Switch version?! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?! 🤬

Alright, I'm enjoying Banjo-Kazooie so far... but WHY do I need to recollect a level's musical notes every time I reset or lose a life?! So much frustration would be mitigated if the game would just let me keep the notes like with the Jiggies. Damn you, '90s game design! 😫

PSA: Google has now begun to roll-out the Ad Topics "feature" onto Android itself. It's not just in Chrome you have to disable the settings. Please #Boost to spread awareness.

If you didn't get the pop-up screen on your Android device (it looks like the first two screenshots), to opt-out of these settings:

  • Go to your device Settings
  • Press "Google"
  • Press "Ads"
    • While you're here, press the "Delete Advertising ID" button and delete it
  • Press "Ad Privacy"
  • Review: "Ad Topics", "App-suggested ads", and "App Measurement". Make sure all are labelled as "OFF". (This page will look like the third screenshot)
  • If you don't see "Ad Privacy" in Step 4 then it means that it hasn't been rolled out to you yet. You might need to wait and check back in a couple of days to see if/when it has been implemented to disable these settings.

    EDIT: There's another setting to review. In step 2, scroll to "Personalize using shared data". Turn everything off.

    What a great bait and switch! We thought it was a new #Splatoon game or DLC, but it turned out to be a reveal that #SuperSmashBros was coming to #NintendoSwitch

    Super Smash Bros. is coming to Nintendo Switch!
