Unfortunately, that memo is worthless, and I’d imagine that everyone at Gamestop knows it. It’s a propaganda piece designed to keep the moral of employees up.

If what this article says is true then I’m expecting a reform in their policy. It’s in Gamestop’s best interest to push their employees to make pre-owned sales rather than new sales, after all, they make significantly more money off of the pre-owned sales. If, however, in their attempt to get pre-owned sales employees…

I’m not at all surprised for the reasons that you mentioned - an earlier release and much more popular hardware. I think the Wii U version had admirable sales though considering what a flop the Wii U was; in fact, I would say that the sales discrepancy between the two games is much smaller than I would’ve expected…

Yeah, I was pretty shocked at how poorly the rest of the cast aged because Elijah and Orlando still look youthful.

Does Samus realize that Bomberman is a Konami game? I also can’t tell if she’s happy that Bomberman is getting revived and the prospect that more classic franchises might see a revival, or horribly depressed that she still hasn’t gotten the call.

Are you sure you didn’t watch the original 26 minute short film or 56 minute sequel?

The converse is also true: you don’t need to understand politics to receive a college degree. Just because someone has a college degree doesn’t mean that they make good political decisions.

I don’t think it’s that they’re mismanaging their money or that they don’t know how to develop games. 

Well, I think that she made the decision for the sake of marketability more than protecting feelies. People are less likely to play this game if there’s something really heinous or otherwise objectionable about it.

I don’t care about the ethical considerations of teabagging in the least. What I do care about is consistency. If this tournament wants to ban teabagging then it’s only fair that they ban all forms of in-game taunting, as well as IRL trash talk. If their goal with this move is to encourage a sportsman environment then…

I need a Tokyo Jungle sequel.

You know what you need to do now, right? You need to keep going back through the history of Microsoft operating systems. I expect you to follow up with Windows 95, 93, 3.2 to 1, and finally MS-DOS by Monday.

To be fair to Trump, Obama’s first inauguration had a historical attendance. There’s no way he was ever going to get that many people there. His inauguration’s attendance should be compared to the Bushes’ or Clinton’s.

None of this stuff looks complicated or impressive in the least. One of those things is literally 2 sausage sandwiches made with sliced white bread. Another one is just a piece of steak with grilled corn.

Playstation Now is a cloud gaming service, so it’s half way similar.

There’s still time, Nintendo. Please don’t screw this one up.

During his run, he swore multiple times and told stream viewers to tweet at Air Canada after his keys were lost on his flight to the event. Bonesaw was banned from submitting new speedruns until 2018.

I think I have an answer to both of these:

The flip side is that leaving open questions and trickling out details over the next few weeks will keep us talking about this thing through March 3.

Is that really a sign of failure? Do normal game shops have retro merchandise in Japan? I mean, in the US you’re lucky to find games from two generations ago in stores, let alone consoles and games that are over two decades old.
