I’ll assume you’re commenting in good faith despite your use of an awful buzzword like “identity politics,” so consider this: Lots of girls are taught that video games and game development are for men. Girls Make Games is an institution designed to teach girls that hey, they can play and make video games too, which…

Don’t try to skew the facts, Twilight Princess was an entirely serious game with entirely serious visuals, such as the bright and colorful store opened by a cutthroat baby entrepreneur

I can’t recall when Zelda had ‘serious’ textures.

Its ok man not everybody loves good art direction.

Nah, every video game has an embargo. I’m playing two games right now that are both embargoed and both FANTASTIC.

I mean no offense, but you’re confused. What constitutes “the left” in America these days is a very large group of people in favor of representative government, as you may know, representative govt was also favored by the nation’s founders. We believe in things like science and education. We do not like unfairness. We…

Because Obama was not a Russian mole.

It’s also weird to see Nintendo getting criticized for jumping on the meme train like they do when companies like Arby’s are so desperately - albeit very creatively, to their credit - trying to stay relevant through memes, and yet they get praised. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not even trying to defend Nintendo per se, I…

No kidding.

The only people who are surprised by memes being taken seriously are people who must be very new to the Internet.

I agree completely with you, SwordBreaker. This isn’t news. This is shaming for shaming’s sake.

Talk about climbing on your proverbial soapbox. Geez, Ethan, Nintendo just took a trending joke and put its family friendly Mario spin on it. Nothing wrong with having a little fun. What’s with all the negative overanalysis? Of course people on twitter will give them crap and turn their own joke on them! It’s the…

Holy shit, do people actually take memes this seriously? They’re funny pictures with captions not a doctoral thesis on existentialism.

AT&T Center security has a similar problem with Tim Duncan, and always are keeping an eye on him when he’s in the arena, because of all the customers complaining of him lecturing them that, instead of spending all this money to watch a basketball game, they should invest it in a 5 year treasury note which, on…

I don’t have that many friends.

He’s Oak, plus now he’s got “old man strength”. We’re lucky he doesn’t just kill us all for sport.

Seriously. If I were the Knicks, I’d be afraid that he’d “get some help” and then come back.
