There's something cool about getting a Japanese card, isn't there?

The aita sub was rarely funny, so it will be interesting to see how they make it a comedy gameshow.
Anyone picked up something good in the Easter sale?
PSA there's a big sale on the eshop until April 27. Quite a few first-party titles with a 33% discount and others with bigger discounts. I picked up Portal 1 & 2 for about £3, it really is good.
I also discovered https://www.dekudeals.com/ recently - it tracks prices over time so you can see how good the current discount is and physical/digital from different retailers.
I would assume it's a spam email and delete it. Are they really deporting people over email? Seems more like a postal letter kind of thing.
I can do a Turtwig, you can offer any 1 diamond.
The thing that worries me here is the ones that are marked okay have passed "basic compatibility testing". What are the chances that when someone actually plays through them, something will be broken? Maybe slim, I don't know, but would there be a patch for those cases?
Just looking for 1-star STS cards right now:
Can offer Bulbasaur, Dragonite, Pinsir, Exeggutor, Electrode, Slowpoke, Weezing, Porygon, Serperior, Vaporeon, Shinx, Rotom, Drifloon, Mespirit, Cresselia, Rhyperior, Lucario, Bidoof, or Marill.
I can help with a few of your 2-diamond cards, FC 3765139124128782. I don't need any particular cards back, so just offer whatever.
I can give you an Electrivire if you have a Luxray (STS)
When I first saw MK World, I thought, "it's lucky I didn't get MK8 so I can get this instead", but then the main difference (besides tracks) was the open world thing, which doesn't look that appealing to me.
I'll say again how similar it is to MK on the Gamecube. Playing (a) SNES/GBA MK, (b) N64 MK, and (c) GC MK, they've three very distinctive driving feels, but with MK8, I can pick it up and all the muscle memory is there despite not playing MK for 20 years (although I haven't tried 200cc yet). It's already a near-perfect kart game, so there's not much they can do to improve it.
How lucky that it even turned up in wonderpick at all, and then you pick right left. I only see 2-stars cards in wonderpick maybe once or twice a month.
Nice. Yeah, it was only available for about 6 months.
On March 31, 2021, physical copies of 3D All-Stars were discontinued, and the game was delisted from the Nintendo eShop.
You can play Super Mario 64 on the N64 emulator, and in the future, Sunshine on the GC emulator, but being able to play Galaxy again might be a while off.
Is this actually a dialect thing? I'm pretty sure I switch between them both with no real logic.
Is that in the limited-release 3-in1 game? Or is Galaxy playable some other way?
I was pretty underwhelmed by the footage of Mario Kart World for Switch 2, but I haven't played MK since Double Dash, so I was kind of interested... So I went and bought MK8. It's fine - pretty much what I expected, it feels exactly the same as double dash minus the cool two-drivers mechanic. I played a couple of rounds with the kids it it went okay.
They come larger than 256, but obviously pricey:
The Lexar microSD Express card is priced at $199.99 for the 1TB version, $99.99 for the 512GB model, and $49.99 for the 256GB variant.
Ah, I see. That makes sense, otherwise it would be going up to Shiny Museum 20 or something
I'm pretty interested in this one. I wonder how long it will take for Rebirth to come to Switch?
Secret mission: Shiny Museum 5
Annoyed that I got a duplicate, but I didn't know these missions existed. I wonder if there are secret missions where you have to get two of the other shiny ex cards?
I dunno, man. This is also me waiting 12 hours for the game to let me open another pack. And then I open it with only 1- and 2-diamond cards and I'm back to waiting again.
Well, yes, but then I'd have to buy a new PC. And I'm assuming it would have to be pretty good. Still an option if you've got the hardware, though.
Yeah, I can give TL Giratina
I was just replying to you at the same time - I can do Dialga ex, I've got four

How are people getting on in vs ranked mode?
I was originally targeting Great Ball Rank 1 for the 50 hourglasses reward, but actually it's easier than I thought and I'll try for Ultra Ball Rank 1. I'm just using my Blaine deck, with a win rate of 51%, but I made it to Great Ball Rank 4 today.
I've noticed that if I'm struggling at a certain level, if I wait a day or two and try again, it feels much easier. Presumably the better players/decks are moving up to the better ranks and it's just the worse players like me who are left behind, making it easier to win games again.

There may be a new feature/event coming that lets you peek at one card in some wonder picks before making your choice
I'm not sure of the maths, but chances would increase from 20% chance to get the card you want to ... 40%? It would be nice if it was for all wonder picks, but will have to wait for an official announcement to see how it's going to work.

Just updated the app - looks like ranked matches are coming (tomorrow?)
Manually updated the app and it downloaded some data, probably related to the new set. Wonder pick has had a bit of a visual change as well. If you can't see the new set tomorrow, go and update it manually
It's not broadcast TV, but it is British - has anyone watched Adolescence, and what did you think?
I gave it a look because it's been in the news a bit and friends gave it the thumbs up. It's a bit heavy, but not overwhelmingly so, and I enjoyed it. I'm not sure I'd put it up there as a great bit of TV, but certainly the message about what kids have to go through these days is interesting.
Research suggests the scheme may be more popular than thought, with consultations dominated by a loud minority
Even with the caveats about limited data and untangling causation and correlation, the statistics are striking: the first year of a scheme in Wales where the speed limit on urban roads was lowered to 20mph resulted in about 100 fewer people killed or seriously injured.

I have a feeling I'm going to miss out on the promo cards this time...
I didn't really care about promo cards, but I was still doing the bonus picks thinking I'd get both of them eventually. Not sure why my luck has been so terrible recently.

Has anyone been able to complete any of these themed collections?
It was hard enough getting one of each card, but five? It's completely out of reach for me.

Lion City Sailors through to semis of ACL2 (Asian 2nd-tier comp) despite losing 6-1 in the first leg to Sanfrecce Hiroshima
Lion City Sailors marched into the semi-finals of the AFC Champions League Two™ 2024/25 after an engrossing 1-1 draw with Sanfrecce Hiroshima at Jalan Besar Stadium on Wednesday.
Sanfrecce Hiroshima won the first leg 6-1, but were found to have fielded a player who was serving a suspension in Asian competition due to his actions at his previous club. It was turned into a 3-0 win for Lion City Sailors, who managed a 1-1 draw at home in the second leg. Just AFC things.
