I showed up to Cracker Barrel for a birthday dinner. I don't like unnecessary social interactions, so I veered out of the path of the greeter and went around her so as to avoid contact.

She noticed, looked me firmly in the eye and said, "Hello, sir!" with this expression on her face that was either hurt or confused.

Now I feel like I should've just said my awkward hello and avoided the extra awkwardness.

even with the shitty Wiimote controls

I can't name a game that did motion controls better than Metroid Prime Trilogy. It's a huge improvement over the standard controls.

Yeah Metroid Prime greatly benefited from the pointer controls.

Pikmin, also!

That was where the strength of the Wii's motion controls really laid in my opinion.

Waggle sucked. Steering could be tricky. But pointer controls? Sooo good.

Pikmin 3's motion controls were AMAZING.

If you're talking about the Pikmin port on the Wii, though, I'd have to disagree there. Standard controls worked better.

There's a board called Actual Poll of the Day or something like that. You can only discuss the PotD there, so if that's what you want, there you go.

Thanks... though that board doesn't look very active.

I have to do the triple bomb jump to get an upgrade in the lava area. It's so hard.

I mean... you don't HAVE to. In fact, I don't remember any upgrade needing triple bomb jump unless you get them early. If you still want to go for it though, more power to you, sequence breaking is definitely encouraged in Metroid games.

Oh, I'm trying to 100% it. No upgrade left behind.

Just got it, by the way. You actually have to do a triple bomb jump THREE TIMES, and you have to start over if you screw it up once. That was nuts.

Link's Awakening, I'm sorry to say, just bores me. I don't think the dungeons or overworld are interesting in the slightest.

You're starting a little early. I'm guessing Prime 4 is going to be a Holiday 2018 or early 2019 game.

I also plan on playing the other non-Prime titles as well, so I feel like I'm leaving myself a good amount of room.

I remember after playing Prime I spent the next year playing every Metroid title I could, I was enthralled. I hope you enjoy it just as much.

I'm loving it, but I hate the part I'm stuck at. I have to do the triple bomb jump to get an upgrade in the lava area. It's so hard.

I just confirmed the opposite. You fuck off.

Yeah, because it's so strange that somebody would think a board titled Poll of the Day would be about the poll of the day and not complete randomness. Such trolliness.

You're all off-topic.

Actually you're the one off-topic.

Well it's the poll of the day board, so.

Your topic isn't about the poll of the day, it's about how our topics aren't about the poll of the day, making you offtopic

Touche.

I never really got into Metroid, but now seems like a good time to start. Metroid Prime is surprisingly great, even with the shitty Wiimote controls.

I'm confused.

We don't talk about the poll here.
That's rule # 1.

Uh. Then why aren't the mods modding you?

This is the Poll of the Day message board, right? You're all off-topic. Are the mods asleep or something?
