Well, this is frustrating. It seems like Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp is having some login problems that are affecting quite a few people, including yours truly. The biggest problem with these issues is the simple lack of information given by Nintendo. No words that they're working on the issue, whether a patch will come up and fix things, what the issue even is. I've tried changing languages, in game and on my phone. I've tried doing a forced fix on the game. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I've updated my OS. I've restarted my phone. I've gone on Wi-Fi. I've gone on data. Nothing makes a difference, and nothing helps. Meanwhile, events are still happening and people are left in the lurch, unable to complete them for what, a year? If we're lucky, and the events repeat without being something new and having the items be unobtainable forevermore? Never mind the whole issue of not being able to log in looks badly on your friends list timer. Who likes having friends who don't log in for days, weeks, at a time? How useful will they be to helping you get into the quarry, for keeping their item boxes filled? This issue is so extremely frustrating. Nintendo hasn't even acknowledged the Android problems, speaking only to iPhone problems, even though there are Android exclusive items available now, that Android users can't access due to the login issues. If this lack of information is what's to be expected from the company for their mobile platforms, I don't really know what to think. In most games, things aren't so time sensitive or are fixed quickly, but it's been 3 days at this point with absolutely no word and so many issues still happening. I almost want to just give up already. The worst thing that can happen is to give your customers and consumers no information, and it absolutely drives me up a wall. Instead, they just keep tweeting about new updates and events coming up with no public acknowledgement over the issues. Even emailing customer support gets you nowhere. I enjoyed the game for the few months it was available, but if it takes over a week for it to get fixed, I'm pretty sure I'm going to return to an empty friends list and having missed two irreplaceable events, which will make going forward bittersweet, and still upsetting. It may actually kill the game for me, simply because I don't enjoy being treated like I don't matter as long as other people are still able to log in.

I'm not really quite sure what to make of this title. I generally enjoy every official Nintendo title, though I haven't finished all the games in my library (I'm a serial game-not-finisher, sorry!). This one looks pretty cute, but it's clearly gauged towards younger gamers, at least from the initial video. That being said, even simple games like the Kirby series can get somewhat challenging towards the end of the game. Going back and replaying some of the older variations such as my personal favorite, Kirby 64, I did find that they were extremely easy and simple to finish. That did not, however, diminish my enjoyment of playing the game. I tried to do different things, and complete the levels using counter-intuitive abilities that occasionally lead to my death. This kind of thought process makes me think that this game might be worth checking out, especially on days where I just want to run around and feel like I accomplished something in a game. This title seems super adorable, and quite enjoyable, and I feel as though the later levels may result in some challenges that actually make me lose a life or two. I'm going to look at some gameplay videos and reviews first, but this is definitely a game that's on my radar for now! The official trailer video is below, check it out if the E3 trailer seemed interesting, it goes into significantly more detail about what you'll experience within the world of Captain Toad, Treasure Tracker. 4 days where I'm busier than I am on days where I'm not off...It was super awesome seeing my family this Easter weekend, we had tons of food and it was happy go fun times! I also got a chance to *finally* play the new Metal Gear game, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance on my Xbox 360! So far, absolutely loving it, Raiden is awesome. The only thing I wish that they had done (probably because I've never played a Metal Gear game in my life prior to this, excepting Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions, which was AWFUL) was made a tutorial explaining a little bit more about Raiden's combat skills. However, my lack of talent with it was most likely entirely my fault, and not the game for not holding my hand enough. I wound up playing about an hour of the game, then did some VR missions, which definitely helped me out in learning some of Raiden's skills, though I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to get close to getting some of those times. Hopefully by the time I beat the game, I'll have improved... maybe? I managed to remember one of my favorite songs of all time, and one that I was always pretty decent at singing, as it fits pretty much perfectly into my range, Kaze ni Naru (Become the Wind) from The Cat Returns. I'm working on a piece of artwork to sit there while the Youtube video is playing, so I'll hopefully have that finished by Monday evening, so I can post the video. My version is obviously a little different, as my voice sounds quite different, but I'm pretty happy with it. I will also be posting my PSO 2 White Day video tomorrow night, as I simply keep forgetting to do anything about it until it's roughly this time of night (3 am, whoops!). I guess that's everything... Oh! I downloaded the demo for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, and it is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. I chose to look like a Pikachu, and just the way the Pokemon reacts to things and how I run make me super happy. It isn't very challenging at this point, but I will most likely pick up the game to go with my new Pikachu 3DS XL. |
