Finishing the Easter egg at the end of origins in black ops 2 zombies after trying all night and seeing the special cut scene with my friends on Xbox 360 has to be up there as core gaming achievement.

Going to a big tf2 LAN in England and watching the games with a crowd of people that shared in the love for that game.

Made me realize for the first time why some people obsess over sports.

Probably local multiplayer with friends at school, like the DS and PSP, used to love playing Mario Kart and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite with others

Most recent one I can rememver was beating Tears of The Kingdom. I was SO invested in the final boss battle and I got really emotional. I was so immersed I was basically vocally taunting the boss for everything they had done. Only other time that happened was with Cyberpunk 2077 and only because of Edgerunners.

Then in the past (jesus has it really been more than 17 years??) the first time my buddy and I beat Halo 1 on Legendary after an all-nighter of gaming. That was awesome. Horrible smell in that room tho lmao.

Of course it is very important to have the start button in an easy to reach location.

lIlIllIlIIIllIlIlII,

I would say that initially they located it there to get some symmetry because aesthetic reasons.

And good that they changed it at the last moment. Sure the D-PAD is super stiff but can you imagine games like Metroid Prime without it?

DannyBoy,

Could put a layer on the C stick like Metroid Prime remastered to have one input handle both visors and beams.

lIlIllIlIIIllIlIlII,

I can imagine external developers asking Nintendo for a d-pad.

Chozo, to retrogaming in TIL GameCube's d-pad was added at the last moment

I think "last moment" is a bit of a stretch. It may have been weeks before the Space World reveal, but the Space World event was a full year before the console released.

lIlIllIlIIIllIlIlII,

Yes, you are right.

But without it how would I have tainted my opponents after I cheese them off the edge in smash bros?

I got Kim to dance with me in the church in Disco Elysium

graycube, to fediverse in I need a Facebook replacement

Facebook Marketplace is my favorite part of Facebook. Thoughts about what might replace that?

classic,

Mercuri seems to be becoming more popular

catloaf,

Right up until it asks for ID, which you have to use the app for, and even if you send it nothing happens and your account remains disabled.

Ask me how I know. And that was for my very first purchase.

mesamunefire,

Not ironically craigslist never went away in some places.

I think the number of scammers went way up though

Bazoogle,

That also applies to FB marketplace

Furbag, to games in What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game?

Clearing Star Fox 64 with the good/true ending for the first time ever was an indescribable feeling.

Draupnir, to fediverse in I need a Facebook replacement

What do you hope to gain from leaving one Facebook to join another Facebook? Break the addiction. Free yourself from needing this in your life.

Bazoogle,

A social media platform to keep up with friends/family, while arguable not great (for comparison reasons), it not at all the same as what Facebook is right now. Facebook is no longer what it was originally created to be, it is just a dopamine slow drip.

OhShitSon, to games in What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game?

Getting powerleveled by a high leveled player on Turf Battles at Tiaz.

chetradley, to games in What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game?

A recent one that comes to mind is playing 4 player Bopl Battle with some buddies and just laughing our asses off.

That is so good to play with my kids. Another in a similar vein is Spider Heck.
