I mean those adhesive ones , the little cushion like bumpers that stick to your 3ds screen for protection!

i have the og small 3ds, the bottom part creates lines on the upper screen and i also have ogXL/n3dsXL which do not have that problem,
BUT ! i have ordered a set of circle grip covers from CyberGadget.

these http://www.amazon.com/Circle-Pad-Co...460628180&sr=8-1&keywords=n3ds+xl+circle+grip

and i plan to use them on my 3ds'es and i would like to ask you guys , what kind of bumper cushion size would be perfect to use with the circle grip on ?

i ask because i obviously do not want to keep taking the circle grips off/on off/on !

so please give me some recommendation for adhesive bumper cushions , thanks in advance !

I seen people stick the rubber feet of the 360 on it.

xbox360 ? or what do you mean, do you mean the little bumpers of the consoles?

@driverdis mate you did mention these in my other thread, http://www.amazon.com/Polyurethane-Adhesive-Protect-Cushion-Surfaces/dp/B000EBVTV4

they are abit expensive , but there are really 250 pieces in the bag?? cause that would be well worth the price actually..

but i would appreciate it if you could take few pictures of your 3ds with these bumpers on !

open the 3ds and let me see how they look like, and also when you close the 3ds i would like to see the gap ! much appreciated if you could do this for me, thanks!

I slapped screen protectors on mine.
Haven't had a 360 yet where I nicked the bumpers off.
Atleast, I had a few RRoDs from people which I scrapped for parts but I never nicked the rubber feet off.

If I had a few spare then I'd send them towards you in a postcard if you'd be open to send me a post card back with a couple of small cents ;p

Just do what I do. Go down to a local Wal-Mart and buy some googly eyes. They make for great bumpers and look cool too. :P

o3DS will need larger ones. n3DS I used the small ones. :P

LOooooL your 3ds seems like it is laughing with its mouth open wide X'D

its looking really good! i would actually want to buy those bumpers i posted.. someone on amazon did mention that he uses them for his 3ds consoles and also on his ps4 etc.

and i happen to have a ps4/ps3 and a wii u. so i could use them with those as well, i will see about ordering them now.

(about the googly eyes, it would be difficult for me to find things like that in the place where i live , i been downtown today and i had no luck finding anything related to bumpers)

so i am forced to order those bumpers , i do not like using any homemade stuff on my consoles to be honest, like tape etc.
i used some car tape once on my og3ds, and it was actually doing the job nicely, but it just didnt look natural enough to me.. so i took it off after a while.

@driverdis yo! i have ordered the ones you are using, the bumpers.
it cost me 17.50$ .. since it contains 250pieces , its well worth the price.
thanks again for giving me that link !

    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
