@LastFootnote @Oldstalk My point still stands: everybody wanted it and Team Cherry wasn't expecting that. I doubt they were sitting in their evil headquarters going "hmm... how do we make sure less people are able to buy our game? A-ha! Let's crash Steam so only the people who buy it in the morning can buy it, and everyone else has to wait until the end of the day!!! Muahahahah!!!!"
@kfflscnt idk, at my local comic con like 33% of everything was just silksong. So much fan art and cosplayers, even children dressed up as Hornet. I always think about that when people whine about it being too difficult. I didn't play e33, in fact i literally never heard of it before the game awards, but looking at screencaps it def does not deserve best art direction over Silksong and Hades II. The sales thing is just blatantly wrong, as of right now Silksong has sold 6 Million copies vs Clair Obscura's 3.3 Million
Everyone I know with Switch 2 completely skipped on the Switch 2 Pro controller since the og Switch controller still works. This is a nice lookin controller, but there's gotta be more to in than the C button, yknow?
@Zufolobelisk Sure... but the internet is who is excited for it to come back, yet the internet was the one who disliked it, which seems like a contradiction that confused me. But it turns out the reception was about 50/50, so the people excited to see it return are in the half that liked it.
It's not criminal, it's just lame. I would hope the official Nintendo Museum would use official SNES hardware. Otherwise, what's the point of playing it at the museum if I can just emulate it on my switch or pc?
It's interesting how I've never heard anything about these games other than Dawn of Sorrows awful boxart. I mostly hear about Aria of Sorrow and Symphony of the Night

Re: The Game Awards GOTY For 2025 Is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
I thought it would be Silksong for being such a cultural phenomenon, literally breaking every online storefront and all.

Re: Former Rockstar Dev Throws Shade At Mario Kart World, Says New GTA Will Be Worth The Price
I think GTA will outsell Mario Kart. GTA has an appeal outside of the Nintendo ecosystem and won't require buying a new system to play it
