We all know Pokémon Sword and Shield aren't remotely close to being GOTYs, but what's shocking is seeing Death Stranding nominated for Rookie Game. Kojima has been making games since the 80s...
On the reward information survey we recently sent out, the platform preference question was absent for backers who chose the Physical reward tier. That was a mistake on our part, and we’ll be following up to fix that as soon as possible. An update with further details will follow soon.
We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you all for your support!"
Yeah this was terrible. Could be that this turns out to be one of those pranks that ends up being a real title, tho.
On another note, I wish Platinum Games were more concerned about fixing the Kickstarter survey than wasting time on unfunny pranks. They still didn't ask which version/platform we want for our copy of the Wonderful 101.

@johnvboy no I was being serious. My point was what you said, about the effort. If he had more important things to do with his money (and life) he probably wouldn't bother with this. "Oh my wife doesn't like Isabelle? Let me buy a sh*t ton of stuff just to make a joke".
Wonder what he's going to do with all those Amiibos too? Resell them on eBay for insane prices? Lol
Oh wow, this is great news. The game is actually pretty good. Rather short, if anything. Looking forward to the updated visuals although the graphics were already quite good for the time (pre-rendered backgrounds with 3D characters). Wouldn't mind playing it again.
@RushDawg @Crockin don't forget to add the hats and the post-its. Although I guess he isn't exactly rich, poor guy couldn't even afford a pair of scissors.

Re: Random: #RipFortnite Is Trending On Twitter, As Players Protest Against Current State Of The Game
@YANDMAN and Fortnite?
Re: Random: #RipFortnite Is Trending On Twitter, As Players Protest Against Current State Of The Game
@YANDMAN oh yeah? Well that's fine too. Do you try to dedicate a couple of hours to each game? What are you playing at the moment?
Re: Random: #RipFortnite Is Trending On Twitter, As Players Protest Against Current State Of The Game
People who play Fortnite don't play other games. I play other games, and don't care about Fortnite.
This is fine.
Re: Video: Animal Crossing amiibo Are Selling For More Than The Game Itself
I thought the title was going to be "Animal Crossing fanatics are buying overpriced amiibos".
Re: Nintendo Switch 'Update Data' Maintenance Scheduled For Later This Month
@premko1 absolutely! I still remember when the 3DS got the folders update and the menu became literally impossible to use, like 1 or 2fps.

Nintendo, please, folders.

@Ogbert The last e-mail I got from them was this:
