@boxyguy yeah I'm unenthused about this game but if you told me it's in the early stages of development and they're just experimenting with ideas so far, i'd actually be kind of hyped for that spirit even if the results weren't working yet. at least intrigued by the question marks, rather than concerned.

but as it is this just looks like a messy game

Re: "What Do I Care?" - Nintendo Hacking Mastermind Defiant As Colleague Bowser Is Jailed

@TedGundy precisely. dude is full of himself and thinks he's doing a public good when he's literally become a millionaire himself from theft. theft from victims who aren't really hurting, but the point is he doesn't really have moral ground to be grandstanding, unless he's using those millions to actually fund the causes he's acting like he's advancing instead of his own luxurious lifestyle.

also, yeah, jail sucks. In fact as an American who sees how horrific the prison system can be at least in this country, I'm not a big fan of it altogether. but homie isn't gonna get any extra sympathy from me for this or that situation in his life. that's literally what every human being deals with when confronted with the possibility of imprisonment, and most of them aren't millionaires.

i will say this headline is a bit misleading, making it sound like he's callously leaving his teammate to rot, when "what do i care" was about the impact on Nintendo, and it was bowser who was trying to snitch on him.

Re: "Definitely No Legal Issues" Regarding Fei Long Appearing In Future Street Fighters, Says Capcom

i find it so obnoxious that that guy just made some ***** up, said it with very clear and definite terms, ("a character I know we won't see at all", "we won't see Fei Long. Ever"), then just walked it back saying it was"playful hypothetical thinking" when he was called on it. He was clearly just saying ***** for clout. Did he not think Lee's family wouldn't say anything? And I'm not coming from a neutral place with this but I generally am sick of white people putting words in Asians' mouths
