@spacejump Awesome me too, but Macs are just IBM compatible PCs too since the switch to x86. M
My point is that it seems like GE would be far more likely to be unknown to someone younger.b they bring good things to life, but not normally in a customer facing way (granted, same with IBM now but their legacy looms large over the PC industry.
@Obito_Sigma really? Wait until it goes on sale? It is 4 dollars! How much lower do you want it to go? If you don't want to part with 4 dollars for these 2 games, then honestly there is just no way you could possibly want them at all. Wait for big retail games go on sale, not 4 dollar game packages.
Dude did NOT want anyone else to talk! He was doing some Fast Neo Talking. And what is with the whole "ok let's go!" Is that guy on steroids or something?
Just another way to word the evolve vs. innovate discussion. I'll always be happy with the Nintendo way of evolving the mainline and innovating the side games, then bring them together and restart the process again.
@AyeHaley Yes, it is. IT can not plan for theoretical peak demand, only expected averages. For something like this that is planned but will cause an unknown amount of traffic, all that can be done is to prepare everything that can be done on the current budget and then present the factual results for the next time. The documentation will hopefully be enough to show to upper management that more budgeting, people and hardware is necessary, but often management will decline to increase any resources since this is planning for a rare peak, and not the expected averages.
Not once in my career have I met an IT manager nor engineer come in to work and say "I'm not going to set up enough resources for our needs. Just because."
Here is my professional research results for consumer demand: it is high. Give us enough so that we can see them on store shelves, and we will buy them.

Re: Nintendo Drops Out of Interbrand 'Best Global Brands' Top 100
@spacejump Really? Why would you think people haven't heard of IBM? Do you know who invented the PC (full name- IBM compatible PC) that you use?

@EarthboundBenjy An odd comment. Appealing enough to buy, but not appealing enough to be appealing.

Re: Street Fighter Legend Ryu And Fire Emblem's Roy Found In Super Smash Bros. Patch Code
@OorWullie Maybe it is just for the purpose of adding a character that makes sense to Smash and isn't meant to be an advertisement for anything?
