I mean, this was Nintendo's MO from day 1 though. I would just go back and see how hard they fought Blockbuster or Taito back in the day. Nintendo puts up a nice cuddly front, but legally they're bulldogs about their IP. Heck, I think from seeing you all demo their games that they have the most strict riders about how…

One common theme between this story, my own experience, and similar problems in other industries is the pervasiveness of contract working. A majority of the negatives about the QA’s day to day experience when dealing with their contracted company doesn’t really have to do with the video game industry or the company…

At this point, now, its far too late for the public consciousness to completely forget about the Kardashians. Even removing their ‘famous for being famous’ notoriety, now one of them runs a billion plus dollar makeup company so they’ve really kinda faked it until you make it. As someone who goes out of their way not…

Man, I like the interview, but I thought this would finally be the time I get to hear Tim preposterously describe things, as he does, in Japanese. I guess it’s always important to keep the audience wanting more!

For some reason I dont believe this is the first hate thread I’ve read about Apple Jacks on a GMG site. Maybe a Drew Magary article?

Like others this regional courtesy of standing on one side to allow people to walk on the other is found in a lot of places, to varying degrees of orderliness. It is just very amusing that Japan is going to such lengths to try and amend it. It’s classic Japan, but I cant tell if it’s something genuinely for the…

I wonder if that would be something like animal derived oils?

You besmirch the honey butter chicken biscuit? How dare you

“Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?”

I feel like light sabers in games would do well in a Sekiro kind of combat environment. Lots of clashing but really only a couple of crucial strikes to down an imposing enemy. Dont know how to address the common killing of Stormtroopers without it feeling like a Musou game though

They we’re actually giving away the game for free not too long ago if I remember. Maybe not free, my memory is hazy, but $5 new on any system.

Bowser is there, but is the princess in another castle? Who would be considered the Princess of Nintendo Corp?

I can see from a business perspective, if you pitched this as a counter to the IRL card games it might make sense. But you have to look at the space and wonder why none of the digital competators didnt take that route. Was it because it wasn’t obvious and you’re a genius? Probably not. It’s because after looking into…

Lucky!~ I’ve been looking for a reasonably priced second hand one, but prices during the “discontinued” time frame and the subsequent price bump after the return have kept it from my grasp.

Would something like a unified co-ed league ever be a practical solution? To just let everyone compete freely against everyone else?

I’m surprised not too many people on the gaming side are talking about the partnership with Teenage Engineering for the design of this thing. They make some quality tactile music synth products.

They were just really big right turns, yup

When he announced he was running for Prez, I immediately pegged him as a solid VP choice as long as he can keep his profile up

As a guy who’s been all in on wanting to be a part of child-rearing, I like this idea a lot. Of course, this is along the lines of “why coddle someone for something they’re supposed to be doing anyway?” but really I could see it change the attitudes of guys around me who see a guy excited to be a part of the process…

I was watching some olde tymey videos the other day about food preservation before refrigeration and I am always surprised how long food can hold out if dried out and stored correctly.
