Re: Niantic Settles Pokémon GO Fest Class Action Suit With $1.6 Million Payout

They are the ones that chose to travel to this event. The only thing Niantic should have paid is any expense involved with the actual event. (Such as a ticket to attend)

That would be like if I paid to travel to France and the hotel having broken water pipes. The hotel would only owe me the cost of the room, nothing else. I’d still be responsible for my airplane cost.

Re: Here's The Top 50 Switch Games, As Voted For By Your Good Selves

@SmaggTheSmug I wasn't the one complaining about ports, so I don't see the irony. Anyway, I just looked it up and SNES came out two years prior. However, I do not remember seeing a single commercial on TV for it until All-Star, that's why I assumed it was a launch title. I remember the commercial said buy a Super Nintendo and it included an order form you could mail in to get a free copy of All-Star.

Re: Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Will Be Playable On Switch Next Month At PAX East

@Tibob What about reports that the game wasn’t selling as well as hoped on the other consoles, and people assuming it’s because they were waiting for the promised Switch port? Same day or delayed, doesn’t really matter sales-wise.

I understand the current game was already in development for the other consoles before Switch was even announced. That’s why I said future games. Games that aren’t in development yet.

Re: Your Prayers Have Been Answered, Hori Is Making A Joy-Con With A Proper D-Pad

@AcridSkull Joy-Con connect to the Switch via a small chip on the bottom, that’s what slides into a connector on the Switch to make a wired connection. I’m sure HORI got those chips from Nintendo, which would make the price higher than a simple USB controller, of which they could go to any source, even create it themselves.

You’re comparing something that is proprietary to something that’s an open standard.

Now stop this line of questioning. It’s foolish.
