    YFJ ranks the Kirby games

    I've been planning this for a while, having played most of the mainline Kirby games now and wanting to compile my opinions of them into a single thread. This thread will only cover the 12 main Kirby of the Stars games, mind you; you won't be seeing Air Ride, Canvas Curse, or Epic Yarn on this...

    Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure

    Yes, I know this series has been around for almost three years now, but as the series finale's going to air this week and I needed a place to compile all my thoughts on this overlooked masterpiece, I made this thread. Also, I'd just like to say how fantastic the soundtrack is. I'm usually...

    Kirby Star Allies: Poor performance on Switch Lite

    Hey, so I got a Switch Lite for my birthday a couple weeks back, and today I started playing Kirby Star Allies on it. The performance is terrible compared to my experience on my regular Switch. The music frequently cuts off, and the game crashes a lot more than it should. I've mostly...

    How to set Nintendo Switch News language?

    A neat new feature in the new software allows the forum to autosave your posts if you leave the tab. But, is there a way to disable this feature?

    How do you like the new forums?

    Personally I really like all the cool new features, even if a couple SMF features went away as a result. The layout will take some getting used to, but I think over time I'll come to like it better than SMF.

    Count until YFJ feels like posting the number zero

    I think I made one of these in the distant past, but rather than digging it out from way back when, I figured I'd just make a new one. The rules are simple. Count until I post, after which you reset. The only catch? I tend to post in these kinds of things quite often, so prepare for a lot of...

    Will a 3DS system transfer overwrite pre-installed games?

    So I have plans to buy that Mario Maker 2DS since my old NSMB2 XL broke. But it says the game is pre-installed rather than coming with a download code. If I were to do a system transfer to it, would Mario Maker be overwritten? And if so, will I be able to redownload it? Thanks!

    Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn

    Anyone happen to own a standalone physical copy of New Super Luigi U?

    Must be a super-rare version of the game. Nintendo doesn't print it anymore, and Amazon sells it for $90. Which is odd, considering that Nintendo still sells the standalone New Mario U for $60, just like the bundle. I guess it was intended as a limited edition? But this is the ultimate...
