Nintendo Switch Thread

I need this!! I have an extra game to buy on Nintendo as it appears that the Story of Seasons remake isn’t eligible for the two for one voucher.
 
I finally finished my first playthrough of TotK. It's amazing and it's everything I ever wanted in a Zelda game / Switch game / open-world game / action-adventure RPG / game in general. The gameplay is great. The power progression is satisfying. The story is engrossing. The exploration is fun. The puzzles are suitably brain-teasing but also funny when you hack in a new solution via one of the game's new powers or fusions.

I also rather appreciated how many hot female NPCs there are. Zelda is always hot, of course. Purah got the ultimate glow-up. Riju is hot as usual. Queen Sonia is hot. And even Paya is attractive in that demure way.

But Yunobo is the hottest.

I finished it last week, not because I wanted to, but because I didn’t want too much spoiled for me. The ending was great, and I have no complaints about how it ends.

I was worried that after beating the game, I wouldn’t have much interest in coming back and finishing off the rest of the quests. I was wrong. This game has some great side quests, and I’m doing so much more than I did with BOTW.
 
One of the catches on my left joycon has been slipping since a bad fall it took early on so in handheld mode it just freely slides up and off. I know it's a simple fix but I honestly hate the size of the standard joycons and rarely use it in handheld mode as it is. The recent London trip and flights necessitated that I play in handheld mode and both the slipping and the size of them caused me to finally bite the bullet on these but in black.

Will report back on the quality once I have them.
 
You know, the guy's art had many faults, but don't recall small heads being one of them.
Not necessarily small heads, but bodies being ridiculously out of proportion. And once in a while, it would make the head seem too small for the body, like above.

Badrock is a Liefeld creation who has a wildly inconsistent head size. Take this cover art for example:

Badrock vs Violator number 1 _ Rob Liefeld bad art.png


His head is smaller than his bicep.

But also this Cable:

C'mon, Badrock doesn't count, since he's clearly supposed to be a more monstrous character, like the Hulk or Rockslide after getting shattered the 1st time.







And while that Cable head is not proportional, its a lot less jarring then that Kenshiro pic (though that might just be because that gun's position takes all your attention).

IMO that Kenshiro 's upper body wouldn't look as weird if teh head was bigger, and thus fails to rival Liefeld, who would have managed to make it weir no matter the size of the head. Which i now realise is probably why you don't hear much criticism about head sizes for his art.

I really should have shown multiple pics of Badrock, because his head changes sizes wildly between drawings. It changes from like a third the width of his shoulders, down to that tiny little head that's in the drawing I did post.

I assumed, because Liefeld doesn't seem to care, but i'm still giving him a pass, because Hulk's head isn't consistent either (even though that's different artists):

Yes, different artists, but also different versions of the Hulk. The first and lasts ones in your examples are also the oldest. #5 of your examples is the only one that shows Hulk with a small head, and honestly it looks more like that head was photoshopped onto that body. #s 2,3, and 4 all have about the same proportional size to the body.

Badrock wasn’t consistent, even with the way his head looks or even possibly attached to the body.

And super tiny hulk heads are bad art, too. "But there are other bad artists!" is not the defense you think it is.

When it comes to Liefeld ?

You sure about that ?

I was actually just looking for hulk with head smaller the possible for a human compared to their bodies, so of course some are about the same.

But also, #2 and #5 both have 2,5cm on my screen, and around 10cm from armpit to armpit... but i guess the pose their in does make a difference.

One of those images isn't even Liefeld.

Drawing him like that was apparently just a thing at Image:





That poor woman's back...
Relax, Liefeld women have rubber spines:
