Re: Cruis'n Blast Has Been Delisted From The Switch eShop

@Tasuki We can't give warning for something we don't know about.

@Shaw_Brothers If you own it, it should be redownloadable for "the foreseeable future". As an example, you can still redownload original Wii Shop games if you bought them, you just can't buy them anymore.
Any unredeemed codes should still work, too - I just bought the same code in the box you did because I never got around to this one!

Re: Review: Dbrand Switch 2 Joy-Lock Controller Holder - "Even More Comfortable" Than Nintendo's Pro Pad? Let's See

@TerribleTerabytes ? What money is this? Am I owed money?!

I’ve flagged from the headline down how sus the marketing spiel is and that it shouldn’t be taken seriously, and spent 1000 words+ exploring why. The thing works well enough, although it’s overpriced for the reasons mentioned above. It’s not bad, so it’s… “Not Bad”.

Feedback is always welcome, but I’m not sure how I’d “do better” here.

@AussieMcBucket @TheBoilerman A lot of people noped out with the fridge and the ending back in the day, but to me those felt totally in keeping with all the other crazy stuff he's done/witnessed! Crystal Skull's problems are that it drags massively in the middle and CG just nukes all the peril and passion. They said they were doing it old-school before release, and the very first thing onscreen was an unconvincing CG gopher. 🙃

I enjoyed DoD. 🤷‍♂️ More quality time with Ford and I found the themes touching.

@WoomyNNYes None less, I'd imagine. The percentage of people who didn't buy an iPhone because of Lightning must be vanishingly small, but that's not really the point, right?

As someone who likes to keep their consoles, being able to easily access and replace worn-out, ballooning batteries is nothing but a positive imo. It's convenient, consumer-friendly, environmentally mindful. All positives. I shouldn't have to order tri-point screwdrivers and glue-heating pads and soldering irons and google Youtube tutorials to change a bloody battery!

Edit. Yes, I know you said rhetorical.
