Not being first doesn’t excuse this crap. The console is incredibly poorly built, by Nintendo’s standards. They’re usually great about this stuff. And funny enough, Sony and MS seemed to have learned their lessons, because this generation has been devoid of widespread RRoD type failures.

Come on, that’s nonsense. It’s not like people are imagining these scratches. You have a hard plastic dock rubbing on a plastic screen. That will eventually scratch your screen.

It’s a plastic screen and the guides in the dock are hard plastic. Regardless whether a large number of people have scratched their screens to date, it’s still a horrible design which lends itself to causing problems.

Dying for that. May run outside naked on the day if it ever happens. It has some glaring flaws, but the core is still THPS. I played the hell out of it on 360. Over 50 hours. Have the highest score on my friends list for every level (well over a million on most) except Marseille (300,000 or so off the high score of…

Even Canada doesn’t pay visitors’ medical fees. My dad was taken in late in the evening after he suffered a minor stroke during a visit in Toronto back in 2004 and held less than a day. It cost him the equivalent of over US$4000 (in 1994 dollars), which the hospital charged to his card, although his traveller’s…

Skateboarding hasn’t even crossed my mind in close to 15 years, but damn if those early THPS games haven’t irrevocably influenced my taste in music.

Shouldn’t it be “Pretending to Be Spider-Man?”

Backed! These games shaped my childhood and introduced me to a whole new world of music.

Ahh the days of having struggling parents and not being able to afford the full game while playing the demo I got from Pizza Hut(remember those?)like it was the a full game. Game had a massive impact on my love for games, along with Morrowind and Unreal 1.

It only has visitors coverage for EU citizens and citizens of countries which have medical care agreements with Sweden. The US is not one of them.

thanks for clearing that up. I was confused as well seeing a Swede paying US sized hospital bills.

I was under the impression that healthcare in Sweden was primarily government funded?

You should call them.

Of course you differentiate ax and axe. One is for cutting wood, the other is for posing questions.

Not on a shoe. Looks like some wack 90s NBA expansion team crap.

It’s amazing how much personality a single stripe of color can add to a monochromatic design. I can’t wait until we start seeing more alternate color schemes for the Xbox One. (The Battlefield 1 LE design was hideous, btw.)

Um...they literally just added a couple of thin straight lines and a number...

Nice. Leave it to hackers to get virtual console (well, emulation support)on the Switch before Nintendo can even do it. Every day something else seems to reaffirm that Nintendo released this thing before it was ready.

You are incorrect. Some were not shielded, it was pure luck if you got a first wave no shield I only ever got one. And I’ve been buying amiibo since day one .

One of them mentioned (on reddit) that he removed the finish, repainted, and varnished.
