I could see that as a win, more quirky Japanese only games being released in the west are always a good thing.

I've had more or less the exact same problem, extremism is unpleasant with any issue and I hate having people throw the extreme comments of others at me when I support Nintendo's commitment to include LGBT gamers from here on in. I've recommended a lot of posts but this is the one I'm recommending hardest.

You're showing a pretty decent amount of imagination right now thinking your argument holds any water.

It is somewhat an issue of culture. Japan is in some ways more progressive on the issue of LGBT rights than the west, but as far as marriage goes they're not quite to the point where we are just yet. Culture there is also somewhat slow to move and it's mostly along age lines, which is one reason that fax machines are…

I like you're optimism and I'm certain you're right, but this was just another baby step on a long path. We've come this far, and it feels like we're almost there but the hate I've seen towards this whole Miiquality thing has shown me that the ignorance is still very real and out there which is something I forget…

But hey, I can't be a bigot, I have a gay acquaintance whom I tolerate by not throwing up every time I think of his hot steamy sin.

A lot of issues are two sided, there's no solid moral reason for why same sex marriage is bad and logically the position is untenable. It's murky at best whether the bible is for it or against it, and to be fair there's a bunch of stuff the bible suggests that nobody follows. Not wearing blended fabrics, getting your…

You can buy a physical copy on Amazon for $17.43 and it's prime eligible. The real value of the game, the amazing contents of the disc, will never diminish.

Have you tried Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey or Shin Megami Tensei IV? They're on portables and they're not as beautiful, well crafted or difficult but they're damn good games and while they don't completely scratch the itch for another game of Nocturne's caliber they do offer some relief.

I've seen a lot of people asking that same question, and as far as I can tell the fine is more a show of authority than an actual penalty since it's such a paltry sum for someone with Sterling's means. So it's probably not worth his time to put up with the hassle of not paying. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if all…

Aha, now there's a statement I think we can all agree with.

I find racism in a person with the position and power to negatively impact the very people they espouse prejudice against to be pretty unscrupulous and immoral, more so than making the recording public. At this point we're discussing morality which can get messy so forgive me for taking a moment to really spell out…

He's not really getting knocked down any pegs. Sure he won't own an NBA team anymore but he'll still be a billionaire, he's not having his stake in the club taken away from him he's being forced to sell it for what is sure to be a massive sum. As he asked Stiviano to make the recordings which she was also on and…

Sterling actually isn't being fired, he's being kicked out of a club he had a large stake in. He'll be making many millions, or in the low billions, from the sale of his stake in the club as well.

For what it's worth, he requested to have his conversations with her recorded. By releasing these conversations to the general public Stiviano broke no laws and none of Sterling's rights were violated. You can certainly make the argument that Stiviano was morally wrong for sharing the recordings, though I personally…

He's being fined that money by the NBA, not the government. And he's not being fired, he's being forced to sell his stake in the team. At the very worst this results in a net gain for Donald Sterling in the high millions to low billions.

I got to explain this to someone today, they thought the ownership was being taken away from him. They instantly lost all sympathy when they learned he's being forced to sell his stake in the team for millions, if not billions, of dollars.

Well, the company this guy was the community manager for isn't denying him the right to say anything, they've just decided they don't want to be associated with his comments.

I've had an offer for discounted prime for $39 I've been ignoring for years, their rate hike spooked me into finally jumping on it.

Or a particularly catchy pop song with a notoriously terrible Screeching Weasel cover?
