@CaptainQuo Very true, she was a tyrant. (so as an aside, seeing the new Japanese PM praising Thatcher, in this day and age, is horrifying). My main point was that, men in equivalent positions have done far worse.
@Jumwa Hence why I just bought a prebuilt gaming PC last month instead of individual parts. Couldn't Beleive how much some components have skyrocketed. It's madness. Fk this AI scam. 😡
@Discostew Ah yes, maybe the way it was worded originally came off as unclear when I first read it. And now with the issue of memory prices going through the roof, I just see little point in waiting to buy consoles anymore. I remember how shocked I was to see the PS4 get a price increase years after launch. I'm old enough to remember the formula that consoles always go down in price over time, not up. 😰 Now it happened to PS5/XB, and I won't be surprised if S2 increases as well, but not cause of Nintendo "being greedy" as some misinformed people imagine.
@kraventhehunter1 With how brainrotted kids (and adults) are these days, I certainly don't want Nintendo to compromise their design philosophy and start producing mobage-type slop. I'll happily stay a gaming dinosaur. 🦕
Stuff like NEX will not be a serious threat to the traditional gaming market. It was also very cheap by comparison, but that cheapness comes with limitations, being mostly Kinect-type applications. To date, NEX has sold about 800K.
@Enigk Very unfair to compare Zelda and Metroid, the two are quite different. While I enjoyed BOTW at the time, TOTK demonstrates the true awfulness of this modern Zelda formula, and it needs to change ASAP.
@Discostew Importers pay higher costs for goods when tarrifs are levied, which are passed on to the local consumers. That is how tarrifs work. In any transaction, there is always a domestic and a foreign entity.
@Neonix Uhh, Mario Kart is absolutely a system seller. The attach rate is among the highest of all 1st party games throughout generations.
Happy with my S2, won't end up paying more when the price hikes come again, I just want some more compelling exclusives like DK or Metroid. Another 3D Mario is desperately overdue. As well as a Zelda that abandons the awful BOTW aesthetic/mechanics.
I couldn't give two 💩's about Pokemon, Air Riders, Mario Tennis or Hyrule Warriors, for one reason or another. 🤷♂️
It's truly disgusting that Capcom outsourced this to Legendary ripoff games. Capcom, a multi-billion dollar legacy publisher with hundreds of games under their belt... 🤦♂️
@RupeeClock Then one discovers a game years later, one looks for a copy, only to discover in horror that it was published by Limited Run and is now most likely unavailable. The preorder window has never been a valid excuse for these continued practices.
And that's aside from the drop in quality, the corner cutting, the outright lying to customers, etc.. Absolute garbage company.
It's offset for the little plastic security tab which held carts in place when the GB was powered on.
And these proclaimed "hardcore" online fans who a Lego GB would appeal to forgot that? Time to make a 15 min YT video essay. 😂😂
@OmnitronVariant Game and console maker that I enjoy, advertises games and consoles to me that I may enjoy, how dare they! 🧐
Now when it comes to something like social media, which is one of the most horribly toxic things humans have ever invented, that's an entirely different matter. They can all go burn in a fire. 🔥 🐦📙📸 🔥
Modern store interfaces should NOT be laggy. I still remember when Sony destroyed the PS3's store with a laggy overhaul. S2 store is okay for now, but it's really inexcusable.
Really speaks volumes to how 45 years of neoliberalism and right wing, race to the bottom, financialize-everything, protect the billionaires and corporations policies have lead us to this point where the majority are broke. No surprise to anyone who actually studies this stuff. 🤷♂️
@Jireland92 Because people are easily fooled and quick to jump on hate bandwagons when they're told to by others. I have one friend who is especially ultra-annoying for this trait, letting others make up one's mind. It's beyond infuriating.
@somnambulance YouTubers often create an identical narrative, and their drone audiences echo the exact same thing, even if they haven't played it themselves. Just look at all the The doom and gloom S2 "Nintendo made X mistake and they're doomed now" BS that these clowns always post. Criticism is one thing, but sensationalist garbage for clicks is another.
@Elektrogeist1287 Best idea; be quiet and let gamers have options. You're the type who melted down like a baby during the superguide days on the Wii. Don't want it, don't use it. Problem solved.
Don't ever Google "accessibility controller" if you wish to avoid an aneurysm, oh heaven forbid...

Re: "I'm Excited To Meet You" - Devon Pritchard Makes Her First Public Appearance As President Of NoA
@Johnny_Arthur So it's fine for equivalent men in such positions to act like psychopathic dictators, I'm guessing? Oh boy... 🤦♂️
One thing you need to learn is that a lot of these corporate suits are very similar. I am completely indifferent to Devon.
(not so) fun fact: men caused all of the planets' wars, poverty, radicalization and general problems.
