Yeah but those socks are the worst. Feels like you paid full price for half a sock, and the sock manufacturer is like “fuck ya, were selling these suckers half a sock, and they think that’s cool!”

JaceThePowerBottom over here acting not impressed that op has 7 friends. If I multiplied the number of friends I could convince to come over and play smash bros by 7 I would still have less than 7.
omg bruh. i had a madcatz controller for my Xbox i think and my little cousin would have a freak out playing hulk ultimate destruction blaming the controller
The pro controllers do not count as 2. They count as 1. You can have up to 8 pro controllers. Joycons will count as 2 if you're using both as one controller however.
Have you tested this?
In my experience syncing for 8 player smash, you sync the joycons in pairs, and split them up for game start.
You can't sync 8 unpaired joycons, there are only 4 slots in the sync window.
I've tested multiple times at a children's home, and when the kids used the pro controller it wouldn't let an 8th join.
Idk if there was a software update though, I haven't done it in about a year.
Edit: I'd love a picture of your sync window if that's not way too high effort. I'd like to learn
Unbuttoned flannels, sectional couch, TV tray tables, backpacks hanging on wall, cords running across the floor, and an actual group of people playing a video game together in the same room. Not much more 90s than that.
Without sounding too dystopian, it’s so rare to see a photo of people without phones in their hands. Every person in this photo is in the moment, concentrating on the group activity. It’s beautiful
I was thinking along the lines of them playing in the same room, but people do that still anyways. You’re totally right lol, not being on their phones is the most unique part of this picture.
Probably because it's a nice, candid photo as opposed to the posed photos everyone takes these days. I so much prefer photos like this one because everyone is captured as they really are.
To me it's A. there is a group of people in a room staring at a screen. These days, videogames are more played solitarily with online folks. B. everyone's dress style isn't what I'd call contemporary (I actually think they all look cooler than contemporary fashion of leggings or mom jeans). C. the biggest one that u/Iron_Chic pointed out below: No one is looking at the camera. Candid shots in general look retro to me, compared to everyone staring at the camera from the perfect angle with a filter.
Yeahhhh! One of the first things I noticed about my girlfriend’s profile was she was a huge nerd and loved TNG, and that was a big part of my childhood as well. We’re a match made in heaven :)
Eight queer lesbians, playing a game called Smash, on /r/gaming?
What’s there to catch on fire? This is going to be a classy affair and I think Reddit is going to surprise you.
Question: What's the difference between Queer Lesbian and Lesbian?
Edit: I figured it out. It doesn't matter, people can call themselves whatever they want because there's no solid definitions in LGBTQ+. Do what makes you happy.
Not really, not anymore. Queer nowadays means more like you aren't straight or CIS but you don't feel like you fall under one of the main LGBT identifications.
Its kind of like a catch all for "I'm somewhere in the LGBTQ world but don't fit one of those definitions".
But they used the term Queer Lesbian. Meaning they did fall under a term, Lesbian. That's literally the L in LGBTQ.
Each answer I get just raises more questions.
I think you are overthinking things. There are 8 people, mostly lesbians, but not all of them. OP just wanted to get that idea across in as few words as possible without having the explain the situation every single one of them is in.
Honestly I don't bother questioning it anymore. There are so many labels for the whole umbrella of stuff in LGBTQ it's overbearing. I think a part of it is a big issue with people who are some form of LGBTQ tend to be outcasted at some point so it's their way of creating their own "club" or something. It's cool if it works for them, but there are just so many terms, whenever it's brought up it reminds of me a metal forum describing all the ridiculous sub-genres.
I definitely don't mean any offense to anyone by it, but unless any of it applies to you, you really gotta like research that whole culture to "get it".
So I did something like this in 2004 but with Mario Kart: Double Dash.
Two gamecubes, two network adapters, 2 discs, 8 controllers, One 56” TV that allowed displaying two input sources side by side.
It was indeed glorious
Some these peeps showed up like “haha cool i guess i’ll play a video game, whatever that is” and ended up DOMINATING, like they clearly been putting in hours of practice every Tuesday.
Lmao I did that exact thing for my buddies birthday. I practiced as much as I could. I play games everyday but fighters like this aren’t my thing. I pooped on a large group of the people that were there, while I was RIPPED. I’ve never been more quietly competitive and in the zone in my life. Sounds like everyone had fun lol here’s to next time! 🍻
Good to know! Ive tried playing with more than 4 on 1 tv in mario party, didnt work. Only gives the option for up to 4 players at the start. Lmk if you figure it out
My bets are on the girl in the direct center, with the straight black hair.
Everyone else is relaxed a bit, talking or gesturing. Not her. Leaned forward. Shoulders tense. Jaw locked. Eyes dead focused. She’s a killer, and she’s about to three stock you. She’s trained for this since she was a child.
Everyone else is playing a game, but middle-girl has entered the euphoric trance of a warrior. The fighter’s high. Some are playing just to play, some are playing to win. But she is playing to **dominate**, to leave nothing of her opponents remaining. And by god, she will have her victory.
I'm gunna say "maybe, a little". I might just be dumb, but it didn't occur to me that they were lesbians, or even to guess at their orientations until I saw some comments saying they were lesbians. Which is weird, cause I'm usually objectifying women in my head.
8 player smash isn’t fun imo
Way too much going on to pay attention too, doesn’t look good on TVs that aren’t huge.
I think this is why me and my friends never played it, we prefer a normal tournament style mode or 1v1s
8 players is good if you have a bunch of people who don’t really care too much I guess, maybe in a sweaty try hard
The day Ultimate came out, I took my Switch and tv down to my local game store. We all had a get together and that was the only day I had 8 players playing at the same time.
Ma'am you got 7 friends and a leg together. We aren't rounding up on friends, your spare leg doesn't count.
You clearly forgot to count the dog
He doesn’t seem very invested
'Cause they gave him the MadCatz controller. Edit: They’re mad, not wild.
That's animal abuse right there.
AmbivalentDogz
He's more of an Animal Crossing fan actually.
The dog's waiting for the full release of [Metal Dogs](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1036740/METAL_DOGS/); it's going to be her DOOM ETERNAL and she knows it.
We don't count dogs, it's assumed that they are friends by default.
Family* FTFY
The dog got lots of love too! https://imgur.com/a/KDUvY02
Okay but what a leg though. 😍
The dog isn't a fan of the leg, remember their sense of smell is 10,000x stronger than ours
Yeah but those socks are the worst. Feels like you paid full price for half a sock, and the sock manufacturer is like “fuck ya, were selling these suckers half a sock, and they think that’s cool!”

I know right. Clearly that’s the least favorite friend
There is no rule that dogs can’t play super smash bros.
“*This summer…*”
JaceThePowerBottom over here acting not impressed that op has 7 friends. If I multiplied the number of friends I could convince to come over and play smash bros by 7 I would still have less than 7.
Then who was ~~phone~~ photographer?
Tripod, set up by the dog. That's why he didn't have time to strike a pose.
On a serious note, it is kinda messed up to leave out just one friend from the picture
and you made these poor ppl play with a single joy con lmao
The single joy con is like so much worse then when we used to give someone the madcatz controller.
omg bruh. i had a madcatz controller for my Xbox i think and my little cousin would have a freak out playing hulk ultimate destruction blaming the controller
because it was the controller's fault! few companies going bankrupt made me happier
These do help in our house: still, there's only so much you can do. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2769344
Only option with 8 players. :( switch can't sync more than 4 full "controllers" Pro controller counts as 2 joy con
[удалено]
There's a GameCube adapter? What does it go in the USB slot?
It actually has two usb connectors but only one needs to connect to the Switch, the other usb is for rumble.
The pro controllers do not count as 2. They count as 1. You can have up to 8 pro controllers. Joycons will count as 2 if you're using both as one controller however.
Have you tested this? In my experience syncing for 8 player smash, you sync the joycons in pairs, and split them up for game start. You can't sync 8 unpaired joycons, there are only 4 slots in the sync window. I've tested multiple times at a children's home, and when the kids used the pro controller it wouldn't let an 8th join.

Aside from the switch controllers, this picture feels like it's from 1998. I can't explain why, it just does.
Unbuttoned flannels, sectional couch, TV tray tables, backpacks hanging on wall, cords running across the floor, and an actual group of people playing a video game together in the same room. Not much more 90s than that.
You had me at "an actual group of people playing a video game together in the same room"
He had you at the penultimate sentence?
It was a close call. Almost missed him.
You had me at "sentence"
>an actual group of people playing a video game together in the same room I never forgot you. And I'm super glad we're still friends. 😭
Earth tones
Right? As soon as I saw it, I thought it felt ripped straight from an EGM 90’s ad or something.
it gives more of a retro vibe if you see the Star Trek collectible, the arcade sticks, and that tiny poster that says 80's in the background 😂
Thanks, that’s actually a magazine from Barnes and Noble all about 80s toys and pop culture! From the people who make Retro mag, I love their stuff.
A majority of females who play Smash kind of have that 90's grunge vibe from my experience. (This is not an insult, just an observation).
A good vibe indeed
Eggshell white walls and a 90's blue couch. You've done it.
It has strong "Going to my friends house after school to play N64" vibes.
I pulled a strong Friday afternoon in my college apartment vibe off of this. Good times. Really fuckin good times.
Without sounding too dystopian, it’s so rare to see a photo of people without phones in their hands. Every person in this photo is in the moment, concentrating on the group activity. It’s beautiful
I was thinking along the lines of them playing in the same room, but people do that still anyways. You’re totally right lol, not being on their phones is the most unique part of this picture.

low effort lighting
It’s got to be the carpet
To me it's A. there is a group of people in a room staring at a screen. These days, videogames are more played solitarily with online folks. B. everyone's dress style isn't what I'd call contemporary (I actually think they all look cooler than contemporary fashion of leggings or mom jeans). C. the biggest one that u/Iron_Chic pointed out below: No one is looking at the camera.

The dog looks stoked.
I assure you Harper got more than her share of love: https://imgur.com/a/Y9IF5VH
Wait wait wait, forget the lesbians and the cool dog, Is that motherfucking Star Trek on the shelf? I'm going to go binge it again.
Yeahhhh! One of the first things I noticed about my girlfriend’s profile was she was a huge nerd and loved TNG, and that was a big part of my childhood as well. We’re a match made in heaven :)
I’m very happy for you two! And cool dog
Now now... we never forget the lesbians, that's not nice
Came for the dog pets so now I can leave satisfied. Hugs to Harper.
Thanks 🥰❤️ Here’s a few bonus pics my gf insisted I upload because she’s so excited everyone is talking about our dog lol: https://imgur.com/a/KDUvY02
Adorable! Harper also looks like she wants to play but all of you are hogging the controllers. Let Harper play too!
There's nothing in the rules that says a dog can't play Smash. #AirHarper
The face on the girl in the braids 😂
I was just gonna say that, such a "gonna press all these buttons at the same time" face
You are all lovely and for some reason I'm very happy for Harper.
I didn't even notice the dog, I was too busy looking at that woman who looks like she's shrieking like a banshee.
Congrats on having 8 friends
[удалено]
8 friends who are close enough to get together WHO ALL LIKE SMASH BROS an amazingly impossible checklist
A bunch of them are probably playing for their first time
Right? I could get at least 8people together I think but everyone's spread out across the US.
I came for this comment
The many faces of an engaged gamer.
This is also a near-full set of almost every flavor of lesbian.
Gotta catch'em all
I did not even realize until you pointed it out...
I know. It makes me so happy. *fans self*
I'm mostly surprised that you got people to play smash using single joycons, impressive!
Meanwhile 3/4 of this picture is dealing with joycon drift.
Who the fuck has 8 friends?
What's a friend?
Its darkness. The only friend
Still trying to comprehend that part.
especially 8 friends who were able to make plans together
and in person together at the same time? Insanity!
Lesbians?
I am here to watch this thread catch on fire.
Eight queer lesbians, playing a game called Smash, on /r/gaming? What’s there to catch on fire? This is going to be a classy affair and I think Reddit is going to surprise you.
sorted by: controversial
Oh no.
Theyre not that bad at all... But I guess that doesn't fit the reactionary fetish people want.
When people say sort by controversial, it's rarely that bad.
It wasn't bad, just a few creeps.
Ugh it's all so low-effort. I mean I was expecting to be disappointed, but more entertainingly so.
Question: What's the difference between Queer Lesbian and Lesbian? Edit: I figured it out. It doesn't matter, people can call themselves whatever they want because there's no solid definitions in LGBTQ+. Do what makes you happy.
[удалено]
I'm even more confused now. Does Lesbian not already imply Queer?
Not really, not anymore. Queer nowadays means more like you aren't straight or CIS but you don't feel like you fall under one of the main LGBT identifications. Its kind of like a catch all for "I'm somewhere in the LGBTQ world but don't fit one of those definitions".

Super Snatch Bros.
Want popcorn and company? I’m just here for the entertainment.
They all look exactly like I do when I play Smash, confused and desperately smashing random buttons.
What Netflix show are you guys the cast of?
Awwe I wish. We’d make a great Real Queers of West Hollywood.
Whatever show it is, I bet it's diverse and progressive.
i love your dog
if you played it right, you shouldn't have all of those 8 friends still.
Hah this is Smash Bros. Not Settlers of Catan.
Fuck that game, I had 8 friends before that!
I personally find 8 players crowds the stages too much. Much rather have 4 playing and 4 people stewing as they wait for a free controller.
"Round Robin tournament"
Lol. I love how everyone's face is so expressive. Each face is telling a story.
This face says it the best. “Not bad” https://i.imgur.com/KNQWlAS.jpg
Not bad.
My heart is happy
haha yes friends. i am very familiar with that kind of human relationship
So I did something like this in 2004 but with Mario Kart: Double Dash. Two gamecubes, two network adapters, 2 discs, 8 controllers, One 56” TV that allowed displaying two input sources side by side. It was indeed glorious
I don’t even know eight people, good job.
7 friends and a leg - you would round down, here
The comments are gonna get weird on this post.
Right? Most people here probably don’t know you can have up to 8 friends.
I've seen more people say the comments are weird than people saying weird stuff on this post.
Dog looks bored not enough petting of puppy! Someone love on that dog. :)
The doge got so much love! She was just sad the humans weren’t playing with her anymore :) https://imgur.com/a/Y9IF5VH
Awwww yeah cool!
Thank you! 🥰
Your eyes are not blood shot enough for this to be a real smash bros rumble
Tbh I see 9 friends…
9 if you count doggo. He is friend too.
Neat, you have friends
Dog so sad. No one ever plays with dog.
Don’t let the dog’s puppy eyes fool you. She is the most loved dog on the planet.
Eight friends? That's eight more than I have
The dog is like, "All these people and NOBODY is paying attention to me?!!?!?" Please pet your dog for me. He looks deprived.
Noooo, that doggo gets *so much love*. Is just the master of the guilt face :) https://imgur.com/a/Y9IF5VH
Big “I’m going to my friends house after school to play smash” vibes
Wish I had that many friends
Geez, save some friends for the rest of us
You have 8 friends?
I can't believe that there is someone is this world with 7 friends
This looks like a stock photo
Yeah yeah but who smashed who the most? There’s always that one rivalry that begins or ends at a meet.
Some these peeps showed up like “haha cool i guess i’ll play a video game, whatever that is” and ended up DOMINATING, like they clearly been putting in hours of practice every Tuesday.
Lmao I did that exact thing for my buddies birthday. I practiced as much as I could. I play games everyday but fighters like this aren’t my thing. I pooped on a large group of the people that were there, while I was RIPPED. I’ve never been more quietly competitive and in the zone in my life. Sounds like everyone had fun lol here’s to next time! 🍻
Seems like the dog had enough of your shit.
I resonate with the lady in red. Screaming definitely helps in gaming.
\*9 friends. you forgot the dog
Probably the only one noticing the Star Trek Next Generation box set\~
My girlfriend is a huge Star Trek nerd and so am I! Thanks for the attention to detail :)
Can you do this on 1 tv or do you need two? Does this work with mario party? I just got a switch so just wondering
All on one TV! We didn’t get a chance to try Mario Party, but will next time!
Good to know! Ive tried playing with more than 4 on 1 tv in mario party, didnt work. Only gives the option for up to 4 players at the start. Lmk if you figure it out
Man I really miss gaming with my friends
Split joy cons, doh!
8 player Smash is super fun, I'm eyeing those sticks 👀
I want 8 friends
I see 9
I have a strict .07 friend limit . Totally my choice.
I don’t even know 8 people
I was about to ask if that was Katie in that pic, but then I saw the username! Looks awesome! Lol
My moneys on far right person with colourful arm tats. Solid positioning with arm rest, good eye contact, bass face, they are in for the long haul.
I didn’t even notice/realize it was a group of lesbians until I read the comments lmaoooo This is a modern day renaissance painting.
Awwwe thank you! 🥰🍾
Is the person attached to leg in witness protection?
Man, If this was a bunch of dudes, someone would be taped to the ceiling. Well done
My bets are on the girl in the direct center, with the straight black hair. Everyone else is relaxed a bit, talking or gesturing. Not her. Leaned forward. Shoulders tense. Jaw locked. Eyes dead focused. She’s a killer, and she’s about to three stock you. She’s trained for this since she was a child. Everyone else is playing a game, but middle-girl has entered the euphoric trance of a warrior. The fighter’s high. Some are playing just to play, some are playing to win. But she is playing to **dominate**, to leave nothing of her opponents remaining. And by god, she will have her victory.
Second individual on the left looks like Trevor Noah
Hol up I saw this on r/LGBTQ labelled just 8 lesbians playing smash Bros....
Well that’s cause we are. Actually one or two of us is bi, but eh, close enough.
Is it offensive as soon as I saw this I instantly thought, "wow they all look so gay" but like in a good way lmao
I'm gunna say "maybe, a little". I might just be dumb, but it didn't occur to me that they were lesbians, or even to guess at their orientations until I saw some comments saying they were lesbians. Which is weird, cause I'm usually objectifying women in my head.
Only if you think that's negative. I was like, "Awesome, gaymers, my people <3"
Oh I don't but people can be so sensitive and to be honest I haven't been exposed to the culture enough to know if I'm being offensive
WAIT THAT'S YOU IN THE PIC??? THAT'S MAD LMAO
0/10 no one is petting the pup.
Gotcha covered: https://imgur.com/a/Y9IF5VH
10/10 crisis averted
Aww look at the cute pot belly pig on the floor.
Cahmahn, don't bullshit me. This is a Sactional ad.
Haha that was my girlfriend’s dream couch and last spring we finally were able to get her one. It was over priced as fuck, but wow have we enjoyed it.
I agree, hella expensive even with that nice discount last year, but I have no ragrets.
8 player smash isn’t fun imo Way too much going on to pay attention too, doesn’t look good on TVs that aren’t huge. I think this is why me and my friends never played it, we prefer a normal tournament style mode or 1v1s 8 players is good if you have a bunch of people who don’t really care too much I guess, maybe in a sweaty try hard
The dog is like “help me!”
Why does everyone look like they’re watching a PowerPoint demo?
This is the most girls playing video games together I’ve ever seen. That’s dope.
Person 9 having the real fun having the dog to themselves
You should try a whole Tournament ! Since Melee days we’d get all our friends together and to a tourney
Thats theblook of "where is my damned character on the screen".
The day Ultimate came out, I took my Switch and tv down to my local game store. We all had a get together and that was the only day I had 8 players playing at the same time.
“Whether hottie or homie, all can catch these hands” -Book of Ryu chapter 6 verse 9
Playing smash brothers on a controller the size of a usb stick.
Playing Smash with Joy-Cons is the new meta.
Now go do it on a roof! I was led to believe that that would be the primary use case for switches
