From the missing-the-point pedantry dept… all of those fake tweets are too long.

They're readily available on all the usual Bittorrent sites in full 1080P.

I kind of forgot that not everyone has a copy of the "Despecialized Edition"s. If you have the means, I highly recommend them.

Then you're in luck, as you're perfectly free to just ignore them and pretend they don't exist!

It's sorta like people who's first Zelda game was Ocarina of Time rejecting Wind Waker because they think every Zelda game should be darker and grittier than the last, when those of us who came up on the candy-colored and more knowingly silly Link's Awakening and Link to the Past thought it harkened back to those…

The foundry setpiece is super dumb, but the colosseum and the Yoda/Dooku lightsaber battle are probably my two favorite things in the whole prequel trilogy

Totino's. Pizza. Rolls.

But what happens if you slow it down 800%?

I did like the idea that Kohler is marketing this toilet as a world-changing epoch, when it's just a normal toilet you sit backwards on. Like you couldn't just do that with the toilet you already own.

The promos kind of imply that Monday's election special is just going to be a clip show of recent political sketches. Is that not the case?

It's pretty awesome how all the right wing talking heads think the problem is that he said a dirty word, not that he's bragging about repeatedly committing sexual assault.

Sounds like it is NOT capable of being used in tandem with the TV, which means it won't be able to play DS or Wii U games.

Anecdotal, but I had my Wii U warrantee replaced by Nintendo because the main system board went bad, and all my eShop stuff just downloaded on the new one with no issues.

Supervolt?!

Yeah, it's hard to articulate why it's so much better than Galaxy 1, but it really is a terrifically fun game.

True. They might intentionally be avoiding showing the dual-screen thing too, just to make it clear that it's a different thing than the Wii U.

The Wii U marketing was really inexplicably bad. The commercial I saw most often was kids begging their dad (played by Darrel Whitefeather from Crazy Ex Girlfriend) for one, and they literally said it was an "upgrade," and then wondered why people were confused that it was actually a completely new console.

If you like Mario Maker you'd probably like Super Mario 3D World. (New Super Mario Bros U is pretty legit as well).

Yeah, for me it's more the fact that the implied promise of the virtual console games is that they travel with your "Nintendo Account" so you don't have to keep re-purchasing them every time they release a new console. Breaking that would be unfortunate.

Well, the Wii U can play DS games because it can use both screens at the same time, and the GamePad supports touch, both of which you need for DS games. I don't know how you'd play DS games with no touch controls and only one screen.
