  • Mario Party Superstars’ deal is that it features boards and minigames from the 3 N64 Mario Party titles. Something to note: because these are all older minigames, they exclusively use button controls rather than joycon motion control. But as somebody who grew up playing these, this was a must-buy.

    With Jamboree, it looks like a typical MP release (a la Super Mario Party), but a cool thing here is that they also included two boards from older titles. This brings the total number of boards in jamboree to 7, compared to the 4 in SMP and 5 in MPS. No word though on which minigames might be seeing a return from the older titles. They did confirm that many minigames would use motion controls; if you haven’t played a recent MP, I find that these generally work well, are intuitive for new players, and are good fun.

    I’ll probably pick this up because I do play Mario Party with friends and family from time to time. For anyone who doesn’t yet have a MP on the Switch, this does seem like the definitive title to get since it’s both the newest and the biggest, though I would still recommend Mario Party Superstars for anyone with nostalgia for the N64 games.















  • How is the OSX and iOS support for Keepass nowadays? Are there desktop and browser clients for OSX, and what’s the autofill situation like?

    Keepass was the first password manager I used and I really liked it, but I had to switch when I started using Apple devices for work a few years back, and the lack of platform support there was a nonstarter.
