I still don’t understand how that has taken off amongst writers on the internet. I have no idea who coined it but it feels strange as hell... like in a “let me tell you how your language should be used” kind of way. I’ll cop to being a generally clueless guy but I always thought that Latino was an appropriate and…

I don’t know about you but it’s been a while since I’ve thought about how awful Red Bull tastes. I might have made the mistake of buying one if not for this!

I’m really happy for its success. It’s kind of a resounding denial of the idea that dedicated gaming portables don’t have a place in a smartphone world. Maybe you need a clever idea like the Switch but the fact remains that it’s selling.

Quite easily, if my cousin is any indication. The phrase “EVERY ONE IS A BLESSING/MIRACLE” is somehow uttered without being strained through gritted teeth while she tries to crush her husband’s testicles with her fucking mind. 

Well, my balls aren’t big enough to run a sub 10 minute lap! Seriously...this is terrifying to me.

It’s a curious thing isn’t it? Marketing and a couple huge games probably help. I imagine some of it is down to Nintendo’s history with handhelds. Lack of games that have a broader appeal like Zelda is probably a factor too. The expensive and proprietary storage medium doesn’t help Sony but I’ve always kind of felt…

If they’re even working on the port in house, which I highly doubt they’d choose to do over contracting it out to an independent studio, they have enough resources that it won’t impact any other work they’re doing.

I might have to check this out. I’ve been on a idle clicker kick over the past couple days and have been trying a couple different games. I came across one last night called Doomsday Clicker that feels a little overbearing with its quirkiness early on but it’s fun enough. The music is great though. One theme…

That same thing crossed my mind. A 27 year old Swedish guy does not get the same pass that we begrudgingly give my 85 year old, southern grandfather when he occasionally lets fly with language like that.

I’m expecting the ones that will claim it’s biting social commentary and we’re all too simple to understand it.

Yeah, it’s looking like a pass. A great sale on Steam might change my mind but, with luck, DW9 will be out by then.

I will say this for the Dynasty Warriors series and its historical accuracy/impact...it got me and two other friends to read Romance of the Three Kingdoms. That’s something, right?

I didn’t know that about Chrono Trigger. As beloved and known as it is it seems to be I just assumed it had a worldwide release. It kind of makes me wonder how many great, classic games have gone largely unknown simply because it wasn’t released in a particular region.

Terranigma was such a pleasant surprise. I think I only vaguely remembered the title from somewhere so I went into it completely blind. Sadly, it never got a North American release. It’s a shame because I feel like it would have done well here. Not that I would have bought it due to my lack of an SNES but my friend…

It really was and the sequel was such a let down! They tossed out the part that made it such an interesting game to focus on a clunky platformer. Once I realized that, I didn’t care to go further with it. If there was a city building aspect I might have stuck around long enough to get used to it. As it was...eh. It’s…

I loved it back in the day and I’ll definitely agree that it was ahead of its time. It’s still fun but I don’t have as much patience for the grinding as I used to.

He strikes me as the kind of guy to get his kids a video game and yell at them if they wanted to read the manual first. Oh, so NOW you care about the lore, Doocy?

Speaking of playing classic games for the first time, within the past week I’ve started and finished ActRaiser and started Terranigma. I picked them to play just out of recognition of the titles and unintentionally wound up picking two Enix games. After putting in time with both it made me realize something fun. The…

That’s the impression I’m getting from other commenters as well. In fairness to the game, what I played was fun but I had a lot of other things on my plate so Destiny got pushed to the side and never took root. After watching the 90 minute synopsis I felt like I might take the time to go back and play it but now…

I’m only interested if they can work in an app that forces you to stand in front of your tv and scan qr codes like a dipshit.
