Goodwill is a dogsh*t greedy company that pretends to be a charity. Definitely not a feel good story.
Also very well known for poor treatment of special needs employees. And before someone says "well at least they employ special needs people", that is not ok. You cant just say take it or leave it, a jobs a job when people are treated as less than.
I work at Target. At first we tried limiting it to 2 packs then 1 then pulling them from shelves altogether indefinitely. It was worse than the PS5 people as far as drama and scenes. At first they were limiting NFL,NBA, cards because the people waiting in line for us to open were too embarrassed to admit they were buying Pokemon cards.
The way I remember XBOX from Nintendo is the way "YA" is spelled. On Nintendo it's spelled horizontally and on Xbox it's spelled vertically. Might sound dumb but it works for me.
Playstation I haven't owned one since PS1 so it doesn't come up enough to bother me.
I still have all my holographic cards from the first run of pokemon cards. Not many first editions but the value is still in the thousands. Definitely going to hold on to them as the value just goes up and up.
Does he think he's the only magician that bent spoons. I guess the controversy is in the Japanese name alone. Otherwise he wouldn't have a case to sue in the first place
@SweetOnion I agree. I wanted to see how the demo played because I grew very tired of the mechanics of Hyrule Warriors Defiinitive and wanted to make sure they changed things.
Ampharos,Tropius and Torterra. Kind of annoying when you try to pick some out of the box favorites and this is what you get. Should've just stayed a Charizard fan. I would never be let down.
Ever since I got an Xbox it's been 90% handheld. I really like sports games and clearly it makes way more sense to play those on Xbox. However I am like twice as good at Rocket League on Switch in Handheld mode. Not sure why just got used to it I guess. Bought a pair of Pink and Green Joycons and havent had drift again.
I still have mine, stashed all my pokemon cards in my dads attic when I was like 14, 16 years later I remembered where I put them and had my dad send them to me. Dont think I'll ever have the heart to sell it.
@mariomaster96 I think there is something to be said for keeping it the way it was. As part of an anniversary collection. As the first 3D platformer I think it's cool to show the new generation how far we've came. But I guess they could've had an option to keep the legacy camera or use a fixed version.
@KevTastic84 Try getting good at Snow Day (Hockey). That's how I developed my basic skills. After that gradually work your way to wall crawling and wall jumps in 2 v 2. That helped for me
I was playing Virtual Boy in the backseat of a van when we were hit by another car. Pretty sure it's the reason i wear glasses. Funny enough they did studies on the effect of virtual boy on eyesight and it was actually helpful in some cases. The warnings all over the box were a huge reason why the VB flopped which could have been avoided if they waited a couple months. It was probably doomed to fail either way but I'm glad to say I owned one.
@kukabuksilaks If you can think of a completely ludicrous idea RageOn has a all over print t shirt of it. Need a t shirt of a Giraffe/Octopus hybrid battling a giant tennis racket with apples floating around it RageOn has it.
EA in the 90s - Trip Hawkins literally reverse engineers a Sega Genesis, figures out how to bypass the piracy chip and forces Sega to put out Madden so it can be on as many platforms as possible. Literally spent the time to make the game work without permission like a badass.

Re: New Pokémon Snap Is Getting More Areas And Pokémon In Free Update
Hope Tropius makes it in eventually. I haven't been able to use a Tropius in a Switch game yet so it'd be nice to at least see one.

We want Metroid and F-Zero but Nintendo has to love being "random" so we will probably get Gyromite 2: Hector Returns.
