@Jokerwolf Releasing games as a stand alone does not make a company greedy. We should pay for the hard work they put in. As a software engineer myself, I wouldn't want my games to be absolutely free either. They have that choice, to put it on the "online service" or to release it as a stand alone, either way, I still think we will see them come to light.
@Jokerwolf You make absolutely no sense. If they want money they will continue to make products to sell. I believe they will definitely come to switch if I’m using your logic.
Valve, you're a software company NOT hardware. Make HL3 already damn it! I will hard pass this like I did with Steam controller, SteamLink, Valve Index. HL3 or nothing!
So if #0000FF and #8080FF and #000080 are the same wavelength then they must all be the same color. The only difference then would be how much additional brightness it has or doesn't have right?

@bluebonics But you CAN describe light blue (490nm) and dark blue (440nm) respectively with different wavelengths. Every other color can be described, and has been described with a single wavelength of light. You say you can't describe colors with a single wavelength, but you can. Even if the sky is a mixture of white light, you can still say that a particular wavelength of light can stimulate the color cones in your eyes in the same exact way.
@bluebonics The reason why all other colors are real and magenta is not is because you can describe them with a wavelength, you can't with magenta. It's more than just what the brain does/doesn't perceive. We are able to define all other colors to a wavelength except for magenta.
Okay, I think I understand, but lets go back to Magenta then.
Magenta is a result of your red and blue color cones being stimulated and with no green stimulation. The problem is that the light spectrum goes from Violet-Blue-Green-Yellow-Orange-Red. When your color cones are firing off blue and red, and also not green your brain just doesn't know what to do with that so it makes up a color.
@bluebonics You are must certainly "particularly" right.
"Consider R=255,B=255,G=0 and R=255,B=0,G=255. The first is magenta and the second is yellow, but in neither case is there a wavelength associated with the color you're seeing hitting your eye." - I just described Yellow with 580nm wavelength that you said had no association...
Also, It's wrong to say that 580nm is stimulating your receptors the same as red and green because they are not. If they did you'd see the same color everywhere. Each one effects your eyes differently. You don't have a color cone for each color you only have 3 (sometimes four if you're lucky). For example, don't have a yellow color cone but you can still see yellow... You're also wrong about yellow not being a feature of 580nm light specifically, it is. You can change the wavelength but you'll end up with a different color hence why it can be described in such a way.
@bluebonics You are partially right, there is no wavelength to describe R=255,B=255,G=0 and you can't because red and blue are on opposite sides of the spectrum. But you can for R=255,B=0,G=255 = Yellow with a wavelength of 580 nm. The color itself is totally the brain's interpretation of it as you said, but you can describe it to others with that wavelength. Magenta you can't.
White is a result of material reflecting all wavelengths.
Black is a result of material absorbing all wavelengths.
They trying to get around people like me buy the bundles and set 100% to charity. I probably haven't even opened 70% of the games anyways. I've even tried to give them away on twitch.
I wish I could go back in time to tell myself to screw the bullies who made me feel so bad about liking pokemon to the point where I just threw out all my cards.
@YANDMAN Do you have to hold the button down on that one? I have a different turbo controller but it sucks because you still have to hold the button, I can't just enable turbo and go do something else like I want to.
This is pretty dumb. They come out with new amiibo on the regular so this book would become outdated pretty quickly. Seems to be the regular with handbooks nowadays anyways.
Not really that impressed. He is using the original sounds, but is clearly changing the pitch. Basically what a synthesizer does. If he didn't change the pitch I'd be more impressed. I'm also a music guy so.
I never even touched it, looked too toony for me. Even Breath of the Wild was a little too toony at first, I didn't even get it till 2 years after it was out, and I didn't even get to 6 hearts and on until 2 more years after that. But once I did finally get into it, I regretted not getting into it in the beginning. Sounds like I missed a gem here.
So what does the song have to do with Pokemon? I didn't hear it mention Pokemon once in the song. I figured it was going to be like a parody not only a cover.

Re: Feature: Game Boy Games We Probably Won’t See On Nintendo Switch Online
@Eel I disagree because most of the work has already been done. When they rereleased them for 3DS just before the Switch came out.
