Re: The Original Animal Crossing Could Earn A Spot In The World Video Game Hall Of Fame

StarCraft, Guitar Hero, and Portal are all better picks to be inducted. As for the AC franchise, better picks include Wild World, New Leaf, and New Horizons. WW for its portability and how it popularized the franchise. NL for its innovation in content that not even NH has reached. NH for its impact on the community during the pandemic and how it's been mainstreamed and recognizable by the general public (although that Jeopardy episode has my doubts).

Re: Jackbox Games Want To Make Its Party Packs Easier To Play Remotely

I was actually thinking about this the other week, how most people (especially now) are playing these games remotely rather than all at the same place how it's meant to. And I'm sure most people experience some sort of lag or delay, and that a natural next step for Jackbox is to allow players a better way to play this way.

Re: Celebrate New Year In Animal Crossing With Some Yummy Seasonal Food Items

@redpanda0310 There's normally no alcohol in sparkling cider (and even you make it by fermenting, there's so little it's negligible). It's essentially carbonated apple juice, and you could find it in some place outside the alcohol section in your local grocery stores.

EDIT: I need to add that this is the case in the United States. Over here, when someone says cider, you generally assume it's non-alcoholic unless they specify "hard cider" or the person asking you if you want some looks like someone who drinks beer.

Re: How Well Do You Know Metroid?

2/12 yet I've completed Metroid, Super Metroid, Metroid Prime, and Metroid Samus Returns in the past 2 years... at least I memorized all the maps and where the power upgrades are.

Re: YouTube Doesn't Seem To Work In The Wii U Browser Anymore

@Tasuki As a teenager the Wii U was all I had. I didn't have any money to buy anything else. My household even used the same chunky TV for almost 20 years. After moving to college and taking up a job, I was shocked that I could buy a 1080p smart TV after just a single paycheck at a minimum wage part-time job.

Re: UK News Outlet Calls Animal Crossing's Nature Day "A Farce", Says It "Teaches Kids Toxic Lessons"

@nessisonett The action in Animal Crossing do not deplete natural resources. Before the Agricultural Revolution, this is how every human had been collecting resources for nearly 200 thousand years. Fishing and catching bugs for personal gain is just what every other animal does. It is only when done on a large business scale where we fish out thousands of fish a day when it becomes a problem. As for chopping trees, the player is punished for having few trees so it is balanced. I believe most people overestimate the effect just one individual has on their surroundings.
