    Let's just say they're joining the 4 hr battery club. :winky:
    You know, because they're playing on a Switch.
    They're on a plane coming back from PAX.

    It always warms my heart to have a truly appropriate occasion to say "what the actual f***."

    Hah, I say the same things to the passengers around me when I fly.


    I don't have a Switch, tho.

    Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.

    I highly recommend the First 15 Live where they play Snipper Clip for the first time; the game is super interesting, and you get so many of these types of lines. Hilarious.

    I think that if the only thing I could hear for the rest of my life was Mike & Jerry playing Snipperclips, I could learn to deal.

    Oh thank god, I thought they might be playing Genital Jousting.

    Is anyone else seeing the old man's giant, horrifying claw hand?

    Well, we all are now. We can't un-see it.

    To quote Jerry para-phrasing Mike: "Hwoagh foreshortening bwueegh!"

    I really like the way Gabe drew Tycho bridging the first two panels. I know there's been strips with merged panels, or a single scene that still had panel borders, but I can't think of one with such a stark intrusion.

    Planes really are an excellent use case for the stand. I played a bunch of Zelda on a flight yesterday.

    It really is a great game! I was worried at first that it would all be what the first set of levels are, cute but trivial to complete, but they definitely put in some trickier/more fun stuff as you go along. I have yet to try playing one of the 4 player modes, anyone here know if it is any good? I could imagine that 2 player is optimum as there might be too much going on with 4.

    Anyone else think the old guy looks a bit like Wilford Brimley?

    Nah, if it was Wilford Brimley, he wouldn't be turning away. He'd be lecturing those whippersnippers.

    Dangit. I just watched some videos on Snipperclips and it seems perfect for this system. Just wish I could find one.

    Did you watch them play it on the stream? It's pretty fantastic. You could go watch the saved video on twitch or wait for the First 15 posting.

    I think lionheartssj meant they couldn't find a Switch.
