@Broosh if you're saying the everdrive isn't affordable, keep in mind, you can put any NES roms you want to play on it too. (I have every US NES game on mine)
Unfortunately, you can't order any everdrive products currently since the business is in Ukraine. If you want one, you may be able to find one from a third party supplier while supplies last. I was on the fence about buying a Genesis everdrive, so I went ahead and bought one on eBay the day of the invasion while I still could. (Obviously the safety of the Ukrainian people is the biggest concern)
It annoys me that the steam deck has XABY buttons. If it's playing PC games, why not call them WASD (the traditional PC directional buttons)? Why rip off Nintendo's button format?
@echoplex Nintendo days usually do nice things for fans, like when they gave away that Zelda collection disc for GameCube. I guess that was 20 years ago though 😂
@Kirbo100 ahhh, I missed that part. That does make it better, but also makes me wonder, if they have to maintain all those files for download on a server, why the heck wouldn't they want to allow people to keep buying them? Makes no sense to me. Perhaps it's just a move to get more people to upgrade to the switch 🤔
So say you bought a crap ton of digital download games on your Wii U, and for whatever reason need to redownload them next year. Now you're just out the money?
I would bet they couldn't release a new console soon if they wanted to due to ongoing supply shortages. Better for them to sell software to the 100 million current switch owners than to release a new console with limited supply and therefore limited customers to sell games to. Seems to me they're playing it safe.

@duffmmann the Razor was the one I remember most. I never had one of but so many did. The Ngage was a joke from the beginning.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Of Valve's Steam Deck Are In - What's It Like Compared To Switch?
Guess you're right, Microsoft is the one who ripped off Nintendo.

Re: Soapbox: A Week After Jailing One Pirate, Nintendo Just Made Piracy A Reality For Countless Fans
@Grimley141 yes and no, I assume Nintendo had the option to press charges or not 🤔

@themightyant yeah, I immediately wondered if he's younger than banjo kazooie.
Re: US Government Wants Nintendo Hacker Gary Bowser Locked Up For Five Years
The sentence is excessive, bordering on cruel and unusual, in my opinion. A short sentence, probation, and a fine would be more fitting.

@Specter_of-the_OLED
Couldn't it fit in a flash cart with micro SD? Or does the GBA hardware limit the size of the rom?
