Re: Editorial: Xenoblade Chronicles X Has Tiny Text - Time for an Update?

To everybody saying "wear glasses", "eye test", etc. You should know that there is a limit to how much you can improve you eyesight. My eyesight is not perfect, I am already wearing glasses, and I can play other games without problems.
The text size is a problem here, and if you have perfect vision and it's good for you at least you should realize that not everybody does, and by forcing your "meh, I can, you should" you are doing something as jerkful as telling a person on wheelchairs that you can climb the stairs so he should stop complaining the elevator is broken.

PS: I stopped playing the game, it gives me strong eyestrain related headaches. Such a pity, I really wanted to play it.

Re: Speculation Grows That AMD Will Provide the Nintendo NX Processor

@Grez Yes, but that doesn't mean they make better CPUs.
AMD just bring a better cost-effective solution for gaming consoles integrating a good enough CPU and a good enough GPU.
You would get better performance if you made your console architecture around Intel CPUs and NVidia GPUs, IMHO. But that would be expensive, and not really required for the mass market.
If you want top performance and don't mind spending a lot, you always could build your gaming PC.
For the mass market oriented consoles AMD solutions are probably optimal (regarding performance/price ratio and bringing not great but enough performance for gaming).

@Chaoz Everdrive products are highly supported by Krikzz and by the comunity, not only they are actively developed but you have a contact person in case of problems. Your suggested card is very memory limited, in the other hand the Everdrive lets you use way bigger than 64MB microSD cards and store many simultaneous applications and games and change them easily, it provides many additional features and is very useful for homebrew development, it is versatile and allows you to carry just one cart instead of a bag full of carts. The one you suggested is plagued by problems, you can see a review that include both your suggestion and the Everdrive here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWOHBsGjlEE

Genealogy of the Holy War FTW, but every FE game is awesome. Come on Nintendo, you already have my money. You are making a Persona title but you put the FE logo on it, I will instabuy. You give me a Pokémon money rip off treatment with a dual release game, but with a FE logo on it, I will get three of each, DLC path included.
It seems this is a good era to be a FE fan, how the hell did you even think of leaving the franchise behind before Awakening? Nonsense!
