Yeah these release times are all over the place. Tumbleseed was the same. Where as other indies have been in the morning like Snake Pass and Wonderboy.

Needs to be a rule that as soon as it hits 12:01am the game is available, regardless of region.

 

[midorigreenwood]

finally thumper released at 11pm =,=;;

guess I'll play it on the way to work.

t-17 minutes to test punch

 

[midorigreenwood]

it was.......okay :/

not sure about the longevity of the game yet. I don't think my hands could play motion control for more than 1/2 hr at a time.

Played using pro controller and though it was awesome, had a lot of fun.

Being in the lobby and switching up match types with a bit of volleyball worked really well and it helps that I won most matches as well

Like Ribbon Girl and the Ninja guy the most because they have the best jump dodge which I used a lot.

 

[midorigreenwood]

the good thing about online is that it was bloody fast with the switch up

in one hour I played about 20 matches so you can pick up for short bursts and get your game on.

mario kart on the other hand can be abit of a drag waiting.

 

[kangle4]

Yeah it worked seemlesy which is a big bonus, even better than the Splatoon one.

Plus you can always do the target practice while you wait and try out the different fighters and weapons.

I hooked the switch up to my PC monitor, God MK8 looks nice at 144hz.

Huh? Isn't it capped at 60?

Capped at 60 fps maybe? Hz is the refresh rate. Either way it's alot nicer than on my TV.

I've been rage quitting MK a lot...

The refresh rate is only helpful up to the amount of frames that you can generate. Won't be a noticable difference from a 60hz.

Maybe post processing on your tv? stuff like motion interpolation can create artifacts in display

or you just have a s**t tv

Possibly. I thought the hz thing made it look better. The games I play on PC are noticeably better than they were on the older monitor I had.

Or, yeah, the TV could be s**t

 

[Xtreme]

I've connected it to two different tv's. It actually looked better on the el cheapo Sharp tv (albeit a little dull and pale) than it did on the better quality Samsung (image quality was blurry).
