@FNL It is actually not hard to find reasons to criticize Obama's economic policies. He intervened a lot in the economy.
The biggest intervention was the Obamacare, which messed up with the whole healthcare system. Obama straight up lied when he said people would be able to stay with their healthcare if they liked it, but that was not possible after all the regulations had been imposed.
There were also the heavy regulations imposed on the banking and energy sector, which constrained the growth of these sectors and the economy in general.
It is not uncommon to find people who support all the measures I listed, as I think may be your case, but anyone who believes in free market has many reasons to be against Obama and to think that he made America not great, or at least less great. To back up what I'm saying, check out how many places the US dropped in the Index of Economic Freedom under Obama's presidency.
That's not to say that Trump is making America great again either. While he's been definitely trying to fix some of the problems created by Obama, he's been doing a bunch of stupid things as well. His idiotic take on protectionism is a complete abomination for any free market supporter.
To sum up, I am not american and I don't follow american politics that closely, but even then it was not hard for me to point out Obama's economic mistakes. It shouldn't be hard to find others.
If you'd like to know my opinion, Rand Paul was by far the best presidential candidate in the last election, but Republicans chose Trump instead, the worst of them.
@brandonbwii I am neither american nor a Trump supporter, I just disliked the way that guy talked about conversatives in general. Actually, I'm not even conservative, I'd be called a Libertarian in the US.
@faint Nazis want less gun control? I actually don't know about american neonazis, but Hitler enforced severe gun control in Nazi Germany. Take a quick look:
@FNL Sorry but you're just so wrong when you say that all conservatives are like that. You're basically saying they all hate women and black people. Of course there are extremists that think like that, but the same can be said about the leftists who hate white people, rich people, and heterosexuals and men in general.
In sum, there are bad people in either side, and radicals too, but don't try to push your agenda here saying that one side is all good and the other is just the sheer representation of evil.
For those who do not understand the remark "controls run at 60fps", Cuphead does the same. The controls run at 60, but the visuals run at 24 to resemble the old cartoons. Here is proof:
"It's a little like the historical cinematic 24 frames per second ceiling, where that's how slow you could go before the audio started to stutter, all to save money on the cost of film. We're also of the belief that 24 frames per second adds to the surrealism and the fantasy of movies. It feels more cinematic to watch 24 frames per second, like the picture's removed from the world. As you approach the higher frame rates and it looks closer to real life, in our minds it takes away that magic. It starts to look like you and your friends got together and made a movie in your backyard with your home video camera. I’m completely with you. I guess I prefer the distance? That totally makes sense, and that's why we purposely run all of the animation at 24 frames per second. But our gameplay is at 60 frames per second. So it's technically the most responsive gameplay, except you don't have to look at visuals that are too smooth."
Some people here love to look down on indies as if they were all complete trash, but myself and many others here are actually very excited for quite a few of them. The more to choose from, the better. Bring them on!!
@retro_player_22 First of all, Brazil is a western country too, and we're not made of only capoeira and samba. And while the game also seems to also target the worldwide audience, it started as a very brazil focused project, since the characters of the game are the members of a famous podcast around here. It is funny to see a brazilian game on the Switch where there is not even a brazilian eshop, but that strikes me as a sign of its succes. I hope more brazilian games come to Nintendo systems!
@Yasaal " Xbox and PS gamers relax and take a solid 1080p 60fps"
It's clear you don't follow this topic. Not even the PS4 PRO can run AAA games in 1080p60, with The Surge being the only exception. The pattern for AAA multiplats is 1080p30 on the PS4 and 900p30 on the XONE.
Both ARMS and Splatoon 2 were 720p60 when first showed off, and now we know both are/will be 1080p60 when docked. I am sure Nintendo will bump the resolution for Odyssey, as they did for the others.
@Dakt The fact that they can achieve 720p60 undocked already shows that they could achieve a higher resolution when docked. Maybe they will try to push it in a later patch, like it was done with Shovel Knight and is being done with NBA Playgrounds.
@super08mario On the Switch reddit, where half the crowd is not part of the core nintendo fans, the reaction to the game has been mostly positive, with many that were previously on the fence about it now fully aboard the hype train.
The people here are misjudging these numbers; they are not bad at all, principally when compared to the sales of the other Inti Creates' games. It was also shared today that Azure Striker Gunvolt, which was released in August 2014 on the 3DS, sold 180,000 copies, whereas Azure Striker Gunvolt, which was realeased in August 2016, sold only 38,000 copies. Based on these data, I think I can say with almost certainty that Inti Creates must be really happy that they managed to sell 80,000 copies on the Switch version alone in mere 2 months.
@Steel76 Okay, now I found it, but it was not on the video. It is interesting to see that digital foundry considered the performance to be fine, albeit the low resolution. It seems that anti-aliasing can really do wonders.
@NEStalgia Actually, they stated that, although running on low resolutions, the game looked pretty nice on all versions because of the high-quality anti-aliasing.
@Steel76 Guy, I created an account just to reply you. At what moment of the video do they say that it runs in 475p in portable mode? I watched it all but I really couldn't find it. It'd be really nice if you could point it out to me.

Re: Review: Robonauts (Switch eShop)
@MrKai My thoughts exactly! This score does not make sense when you read the review.
