I just don’t think I’ve ever heard of a progressive, unmarried, child-free couple that wasn’t inundated with a metric ton of cats and dogs.

Although, on that note (and I know I’m going to catch shit for this), I always find it embarrassing as shit when someone tries substituting children with pets. Like... this person

Yeah, normally in these abusive relationships “she” can’t leave because she’s financially dependent on his income. In this case, she’s the sole breadwinner, lady, dump his abusive, freeloading ass, and never look back.

I think Super Metroid on the Virtual Console was the first game I ever gifted someone. It’s wild to think Nintendo had made a point of doing it back then and then decided to drop it for the 3DS, Wii U, and now Switch (at least for now).

Wait, I didn’t even realize this wasn’t a thing particularly on the Switch. It was even a thing on the original Wii and that console’s store was pretty awful to navigate.

Ah, so it’s a game about actual memes, not the heavily corrupted definition of the word we use today.

Not really that interesting as far as mods go, but back in the day when I was a poor undergrad, I used cut up garbage bags and tape to channel the entire opening of my big L-R sliding dorm window to the intake fans on the back of my first self-built PC, and took my first crack at overclocking. I don’t remember exactly

I think OP’s point was that there a ton of people out there who want to judge Labo as a video game, and nothing beyond that. I’ve read a ton of crap on the internet that’s just that, people pissed off that Nintendo is making this instead of putting that R/D budget into some new amazing game, and I feel like that

A good boot SSD. No matter what other components you have a nice SSD will make a huge difference in performance and power draw.

SSD. IMO the most noticeable upgrade even when compared to CPU or memory. If you put two systems side by side, one with a HDD and the other a SSD the difference in responsiveness is night and day.

One thing that is easily overlooked and often skimped on is a solid PSU. No its not flashing and it won’t bump you benchmark shores up. However, it’s a real shame to whatch a multi-grand rig go up in literal smoke beacuase of a cheap PSU.

The company was his horcrux.

Nintendo making risky decisions like this is what makes them who they are. Imagine if they never fumbled around with ROB, the light gun, the power pad, the rumble pack, handheld portable gaming, the 3D analog stick, the Wii remote, glasses-less 3D, the tablet controller..... Lots of what people call “Nintendo’s

I think the reason people have such an emotional response to Nintendo is not just their ability to tap into our nostalgia like no one else, but also their ability to take risks in an increasingly risk-averse world. It really does feel like they are just a bunch of tinkerers trying to make people believe in fun again.

I do think it’s died down a bit, but this article really highlights why complaints/worries about Nintendo focusing on “gimmicks” are overblown now. The Switch does have a bunch of these quirks/gimmicks loaded in them, but for basically an entire year they mostly went unused, and Nintendo released a bunch of games that

That is for consistency reasons. The SNES version was localized as “Final Fantasy III” (SNES)

This is FFVI. AKA the best Final Fantasy.

I actually loved the near future stuff, and sorely miss that story line. The rampaging digital consciousness kind of wrote them into a corner though.

Nothing at all beats the feeling of building something, setting it up and just looking at it...well provided it doesn’t fall apart, explode or fall over. It’s why home improvement stores are a great investment and know how to get you in that fucking store and only able to walk out after you’ve spent a shit ton

Too make it good, you have to over-analyse it. The same thing that I did with Pacific Rim (2013). It is a brilliantly stupid movie.
