@Giygas_95 That's how big the games used to be but these are updated versions with hi-res textures now. Plus some new game selection menu, soundtrack player, etc. That would likely put all 4 of them over 8 GB when combined.
@Supadav03 This is about more than being offended. The perpetuation of this stereotype has serious real-world consequences. As men (I'm just gonna assume you're a man too based on your take) we're represented in every imaginable personality and type. Like seriously. When we think of a man we think "They're so complex! There are so many different kinds of men." when we think of a disabled person we only pity them and think of their wheelchair as a "prison" because that's all we're ever shown in TV, movies, and games.
It's a bad stereotype with real-life consequences. We're in a time where some doctors have had to make tough choices about who gets treatment for COVID in an over capacity ER. Stereotypes like this influence decisions like that

Great article.
I see some chumps in these comments are still the 10 year olds they were in 1994.

@Giygas_95 Yeah I was surprised by the difference too, and edited my comment
Re: Super Mario All-Stars Is Now Available On Nintendo's Switch Online SNES Service
@Giygas_95 I hope it comes out one way or another too. I'll buy it either way.
Re: Super Mario All-Stars Is Now Available On Nintendo's Switch Online SNES Service
@Giygas_95 fair enough. hard to say whether Galaxy 2 would have been too much then, or if they just didn't want to do so many classics at once.

Re: Thunder Lotus Apologises For Ableist Storyline In Spiritfarer, Pledges To "Correct The Mistake"
@Supadav03 The problem is that it's a common, wide-spread stereotype, and that stereotype has bad real-life consequences.
