I’m honestly just sorry for people who get caught doing this sort of thing. I love a juicy rumor or leak and I’m personally glad some people are crazy enough to do things like that. It doesn’t really hurt anyone individually and I usually hope they get away with it. (The exception being people who maliciously leak information to harm someone else)
It would be nice if companies were focused on making fun games instead of finding ways to shove controversial and wasteful new tech into them out of pure avarice.
Tears as in rips sounds terrible. It’s not something a native English speaker would ever name anything. I’m amazed people actually thought that that was it.
Subnautica pairs pretty well with Star Trek: The Next Generation, or really any Star Trek in general. I tend to write the text for my memory capsule from the perspective of one of the characters. To be honest, it’s always Data every time.
I really do hope he evades “justice.” When Bowser was sentenced to prison for a non violent crime, the quite vindictive judge was pretty clear that if it was Louarn’s sentencing, it would be for over a decade of imprisonment.
They never endangered, assaulted, or killed anyone, and yet this guy will almost certainly be sentenced to a decade of imprisonment if captured.
That hardly seems fair considering how actual dangerous or violent acts are often treated in the “justice” system.
I’ve always though about how devastating it would be as a lover of video games to lose the ability to play them for whatever reason. Video games were an important part of my childhood and it makes me sad to think of how hard it would be for a child to face a physical limitation that makes gaming inaccessible to them. Accessibility in gaming is important for everyone and should be encouraged and celebrated.
When I was a kid my mom worked at Roger’s Video and she used to get three free rentals a week. The memories of walking up to that (glorious) wall of SNES and Genesis titles still make me happy. I was very lucky to be able to acquire a wide taste in games that way. Everything from platforming to racing to puzzles to sims graced my couple consoles in those bad old days.
@RadioShadow Earthbound arguably includes both of those features. The battles aren’t random encounters, and if you time attacks right you can survive battles you wouldn’t have otherwise.
@sleepinglion Although I do enjoy Picard and Discovery to a slightly lesser degree than the classic shows, I am absolutely in love with Lower Decks. It feels much more like the older shows and I think that you might prefer it to the other new stuff. Prodigy, for a kids show, is pretty darn decent too!
That’s awesome! I bet he’ll get every single korok. But on a tangent, I do hope that’s just a plastic wrapper on his game and they don’t stamp that age rating right on the cover.
Still have a tattered old copy missing a page. Wish I had been old enough to get and treasure the whole package when it came out. I can still can smell the scratch and sniff card.

This is so sweet and lovely.

Right on, just please don’t go back on your word. Please ensure that content is freely accessible indefinitely.
Re: Chris Pratt Defends "The Voices" In The Mario Movie
I’m so sick of people trashing things before they’re even available to experience. So many so-called critics are just jerks.
Re: SEGA & Tencent Have Also Decided To Skip This Year's E3
Not Tencent! I wanted to watch rotten food thrown at the stage when they darkened it.
Re: Zelda amiibo Listings Surface Online Ahead Of Tears Of The Kingdom Launch (North America)
I hope they give BOTW a tiny little update so the new Amiibo gives us one last little surprise there before TOTK.
Re: Looks Like Square Enix Is Still Planning To Release Multiple Blockchain Games
It would be nice if companies were focused on making fun games instead of finding ways to shove controversial and wasteful new tech into them out of pure avarice.
Re: Capcom Ending Resident Evil 7 Cloud Rental Service On Switch
For once I’m glad to see the end of rentals.
Re: These Lovely EarthBound Plushies Are Getting A Re-Release On Valentine's Day
@bonjong23
You must have been one of the poor souls who was never lucky enough to try one of the scratch and sniff cards!
Master Barf still lingers in my mind and nostrils.
Re: These Lovely EarthBound Plushies Are Getting A Re-Release On Valentine's Day
I hope I’m not the only one kind of hoping they smell like Barf.
Re: Random: Saturday Night Live And Pedro Pascal Deliver A Gritty Take On Mario Kart
Yeah, this is fantastic and I’m really enjoying The Last of Us too. My hopes are high for Fallout as well, especially with Ella Purnell starring.
Re: Xbox Acknowledges "The Journey" It's Been On To Revive GoldenEye 007
I’m so excited my chair might explode!
Re: Random: 'WATA Certified' Pokémon Yellow Apparently Mauled By US Customs
They must have been looking for drugs, which in itself is an idiotic thing for government employees to be wasting citizens’ time and money on anyway.
Re: Random: Nintendo Confirms How To Pronounce Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom
Tears as in rips sounds terrible. It’s not something a native English speaker would ever name anything. I’m amazed people actually thought that that was it.
Re: Three Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack
They’re ok, but they aren’t Goldeneye!
Re: GoldenEye 007 Is Returning To Nintendo Switch
Next to the Zelda title, this was my favorite part!
Re: Netflix Cancels Resident Evil Series After First Season
I was very interested in the trailer, but a few minutes into the first episode I could tell it was trash. I didn’t expect a second season.
Re: New Denuvo 'Switch Emulator Protection' Tech Launches, And Players Are Worried
I’m quite alright with saying the world does not need people who make DRM technology and would be better without them.
Re: Hooray! Hooray! We're Getting A New 'Adventures Of Tintin' Game In 2023
I’d love a game that has the exact graphical style of the comics. It could be a Comix Zone style game which references the original medium.
Re: Embracer Group Acquires Limited Run Games, Lord Of The Rings IP & More
I have no issues at all with Swedes buying up whatever they want. Their society is not harmful to the hobby. Some other places, though…
Re: Crypt Of The Necrodancer Comes Back From The Dead With Co-Op, New Characters, And A Sequel
@The_Pixel_King
You definitely should! The gameplay fits pretty well with a Zelda game, but the best part is the soundtrack.
Re: Tencent Is Seeking A Bigger Stake In 'Mario + Rabbids' Publisher Ubisoft
I really wish they would just completely ban gaming over there and leave it to humanity to enjoy.
Re: Logitech And Tencent Games Are Working On A Cloud-Based Handheld Console
A console full of faulty hardware that sends all your personal information straight to Beijing? No thanks!
Re: Say Hello To Time Extension, The Newest Member Of Our Network
That’s fantastic! I’ll be checking in there regularly as well.
Re: Soapbox: Games Go Down Better When Paired With Books, Movies, And TV, Just Like Wine
Subnautica pairs pretty well with Star Trek: The Next Generation, or really any Star Trek in general. I tend to write the text for my memory capsule from the perspective of one of the characters. To be honest, it’s always Data every time.
Re: Random: Dev Launches Attack On NFTs At An NFT-Sponsored Event
I wouldn’t say it’s clear more people are coming out against it, I’d say it’s fantastic that more people are coming out against it.
Re: GameStop Staff Layoffs Are Announced As Chief Financial Officer Leaves
@Doomcrow
The words were so deeply burned into my brain that I still call it Electronics Boutique.

The new full length episodes are out in September! I can’t wait!
Re: Soapbox: Why Do We Talk About Games By Comparing Them To Other Games?
As soon as I started reading this I was immediately reminded of long university seminars on Plato, Derrida, and différance.
Re: Devolver Digital Shares Plummet After Company Downgrades Sales Expectations
That’s a bummer. Devolver is one of my favorites.

Re: Hell Pie Is A "Bad Taste" 3D Platformer That Revels In The Obscene
That looks pretty good!
Not as gross as I feared from the headline.
Re: Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund Acquires $1 Billion Stake In Embracer Group
Wish they’d just stick to investing in swords and hacksaws.
Don’t want them having any influence on my life.
Re: EA Has "Some Surprises" You Apparently Won't Want To Miss
Is it that their hand is in my pocket?
Re: Gary Bowser Jail Term Intended To "Send A Message" To Other Switch Hackers
This all seems pretty vindictive to me.

Re: 'Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova' Details And Release Date Revealed
I’m pretty excited for this, even if only for the fact that new Trek games are starting to trickle out. I hope a decent Lower Decks game gets made.
Re: Poll: If Nintendo Released Mother 3 In The West, What Would It Be Called?
Endings is great - it would bookend the western series names perfectly.
Re: Fei Long Will Never Appear In Street Fighter Again, Says SFV Composer
That was probably my favorite scene in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
Re: Memory Pak: Making New Memories With Earthbound In 2022
@RadioShadow Earthbound arguably includes both of those features. The battles aren’t random encounters, and if you time attacks right you can survive battles you wouldn’t have otherwise.
But I do share your love for Super Mario RPG.
Re: Man Dies Following An Incident Involving Stolen Pokémon Cards
Where I work, we barely give a damn about the theft of these cards, the place still runs fine, and nobody dies. Almost a paradise in comparison.
Re: Man Dies Following An Incident Involving Stolen Pokémon Cards
I personally don’t have “200% trust” in the competence of anyone.

Re: Team17 CEO Says "Action Will Be Taken" Following Negative Report
“totally outside of the principles and values we have as a company”
That’s what I like to hear about NFTs.
Re: Review: EarthBound - A Quirky, Cosmic Adventure Bound To Warm Your Heart
An absolute perfect 10! I genuinely believe that this is game that can change who you are in all the best ways.
Re: Nintendo Shares The Original EarthBound Player's Guide Online
Still have a tattered old copy missing a page. Wish I had been old enough to get and treasure the whole package when it came out. I can still can smell the scratch and sniff card.
Re: Switch Publisher RedDeer.Games "Enters The World Of NFTs"
I suspect their imminent NFT future will resemble the recent NFT pasts of others.
Re: Feature: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Has Made Pokémon Downright Disturbing Again
The first alpha Rapidash I saw terrified me! I was almost asleep playing that first night and seeing it woke me right up.
