A price far too high. 

Also a study on all kinds of medications have shown they are still effective long past their expiration date, apparently 90% of medications tested (more than a hundred) were still effective 15 years later, and that includes ones in liquid form.

I swear, it’s the ghastly young people who work at Kotaku that do this to me. I’m 46, so was turning 19 in 1996. So I always think of these games as part of everyone’s childhoods, until the Gen Alphas that work here all remind me they weren’t born then.

I don’t think anyone is surprised by this. I still buy CDs and Blu-Rays, but I realize that I’m in the minority. I hope there continues to be enough of niche audience to keep them alive for purchasing online, but only time will tell. As far as games go, I would bet that Best Buy will continue selling them as long as…

So Square Enix, whose entire marketing strategy is going to TEDx conferences to look for random keywords they can slap onto their quarterly earnings reports will... continue to use this as their entire business model.

If they’re going to just have prompts hack out a game for us, publications should just have prompts hack out a review for it.  Imh opinion.

Incredible year for the console. Super Mario Wonder, Metroid Prime Remastered and the bunch of great hits I caught up on thanks to sales such as FFVIII, Hades, Persona 5 and Resident Evil 0 and 5.

Why call it the Switch 2 when Super Nintendo Switch is right there?

You know what counts as a criminal conspiracy? Churches, who don’t pay anywhere near their fair share in taxes, blatantly violating the “stay out of politics” doctrine.

But it wasn’t available on any streaming services so we’d have to rent it, even though Roku and other websites said otherwise.

I had a Chevy dealer attempt to charge $1200 for dealer prep. After digging at them they revelaed this included a pin stripe down the side of the car and nitrogen in the tires.....that already came from the factory with nitrogen in them....which is a scam in itself. They literally tried to scam the scam and cover it…

Look, General, be more honest. You are doing this so you can collect data on occupants and sell it to data brokers. I might agree to those terms if you gave me a base Camaro for free. It’s just ridiculous that a corporation as large and as profitable as GM still has this drive to collect and sell data about the humans…

They already did give us a new entry, with new stories, characters and mechanics. They also gave it a new name, Triangle Strategy.

and then when you get what you want... “these new mechanics and stories SUCK. why did they do this? i’m so tired of these companies refusing to give the fans what they want...just remaster the original and leave it alone!”

Something something high seas, something something torrent.

I bet they will be. Its a classic class action suit and I don’t see how you couldn’t win.

They really should be taken to court for this. Licenses expiring is a common thing in digital distribution. The solution is to pull the licensed content from the store, not user libraries. That’s been the standard practice for games, I don’t see why it should be any different for movies or TV shows.

This is one of the many reasons I’ve started collecting blu-rays and 4k discs in 2023. 

I can’t even play Mario Wonder outside of my house unless I tether my Switch to my phone so it can do that “checking to see whether you’re allowed to play the game or not” bullshit.

jesus christ who greenlighted this, it’s just a maximalist glitter-sploodge. yikes!
