My Wii black pro controller is still the sexiest controller i've ever held.
Its perfect.


It is pretty dang good even if it doesn't have analog triggers.

It was barely supported at launch IMO and I didn't get on till 3D world came out. Now having used it has made me realize how largely unnecessary the gamepad actually is.

I still love my gamepad, but if I am going to play on the TV I almost always prefer the pro controller now.

Oh, your talking classic controller pro....so confusing. I just call them both classic controllers. I don't like that it has to plug in and prefer the wireless pro controller for Wii U. I think the pro controller is superior to the classic but I have both in black.

It existed in Brazil... You know, the USA and Europe are not the only markets in the world you eurocentric fascist*! :P

EDIT: *Or communist since I remember you are from Poland
I'm sure that existence on the verge of extinction isn't a life worth living, and that's the kind of existence the N64 "enjoyed" outside of the U.S. ;O;

As for the "communism" bit, that disease came from the Soviet Union. Poland never asked to become a communist state, it was imposed on us. Only the morons actually believed in the utopian ideology, anyone with at least one braincell knew that it's simply the U.S.S.R's way of taking advantage of the country. ;)

Cold War times sure sucked. In my country there was a dictatorship from 1964 to 1988 and the USA helped not only in the coupe d'etat that initiated the dictatorship here but they financed the dictatorship the whole time. It was a way to controls us and keep us out of the USSR sphere of influence. (like my country was ever close to that). In those times, whether you were on the capitalist or communist side, the devil (be it USA or USSR) was never too far away.

The U.S. has an odd history of supporting guerilla fighters or installing their leaders as dictators and then having problems with said people in the near future as they inevitably become enemies of the state. Off the top of my head I can think of Fidel Castro (Cuban Missile Crisis), Saddam Hussein (Gulf War) and Osama Bin Laden (9/11), but I'm sure there were more. That's a story for another thread though. ;)

One conversation at a time, Black-Ice. One conversation at a time.

How was your day? Does Pokemon have a story yet? :)

It does you know, BW's was very well done and while X and Y's was a lot more low tone, I really felt Lysandre as a main villain.
He was epic, and hope to see him back in Z :yaynds:

I'm sure that one day Pokemon's story will reach the richness and complexity of Call of Duty's story... one day, maybe. ;O;

Oh foxi, stahp.
You're killing me
It's not my fault that Lysandre used backwards logic throughout the game. Infecting everybody with A.I.D.S does not effectively cure A.I.D.S - it just infects everybody with A.I.D.S. Killing off a huge portion of the population doesn't actually fix humanity's problems, it does leave craters though. ;O;

That's a discussion for another thread though, especially since I actually enjoyed X/Y.

Wait. What happened. This thread almost turned in to a happy place full of agreement instead of what it was earlier?

There's the problem: it is philosophically impossible to lump the words "Nintendo", "happy", and "agreement" into a logical statement that people won't try to contradict.

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
