Sharks that fuck people over for money or contribute to human misery during a crisis? Yeah, I have no empathy for them. Fuck that.

She has savings and is still working from home. She wouldn’t risk their financial future just to buy a Switch. She was able to afford it. The girl wanted one last year, but she waited until they had more cash and until the girl was a bit older and would enjoy some of the more complex games.

She’s a child in quarantine, she's already getting denied access to friends, let her have some happiness.

Motherboard’s report says this is happening to webcams and VR headsets too. 

I’m sure this is happening to much more than Switches. Opportunistic vultures.

Also amazon didn’t like my review either

Incorrect in this case. My PS4 copy came on two disks, I didn’t even see anything download.

You’re noticing it more because of the virus, that’s all. Should be said that a) most cause of deaths (including this one) are unrelated to the virus (he had cancer) and b) most people, thankfully, will survive COVID-19.

Yes, the difference in value is my entire point - which makes them not the same. The difference between a physical copy and digital is that when I’m done with a physical copy, it still has transferable value and I have some say in what I can do with it - whether it be to resell, trade, or lend it to a friend.

Until the day where even physical media requires an activation code to tie its use to a single player’s account

you might as well get a spare ps4 game case, print out the box art and put it in the sleeve. essentially the same thing.

Yeah, similar to how people/news outlets are paying more attention to earthquakes or bad weather in places that do get those problems annually.

If you haven’t, I would recommend trying out VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action.

Your analogy would make sense if Nintendo’s consoles were crappy. The demand is there because the product and games for it are excellent. 

Ehhh, considering the pandemic created worldwide supply chain shortages and vast cash flow to consumer bases (and wage drop off or straight out unemployment), it might be something other than modeling Nintendo. Hell, Nintendo mostly does it because it’s tight and conservative with supply chain and that’s how it, as…

The Nintendo lesson is you can leverage literally anything if you look after your first party game library well enough, Sony has done a reasonable job of taking this onboard but MS still seem a little wayward :p

Except there is no indication it’s going to be a crappy console. Rumored spec wise it doesn’t match spec for spec to the new XBox but it’s VERY close.  Some of the rumors I have heard is that developers LOVE it because it’s super easy to develop on.  But I will say what i have for years, the only thing that REALLY…

Yeah, this remake is doing a much, much better job of investing you in Tifa early on. I’m only just now getting to the Sector 5 slums and I’m dreading the point where I imagine I’ll have to choose who’s going to be in my party because I’ve been dying for Aerith’s magic acumen, but I also don’t want to pull Tifa or…

I figure it’s a Skyrim-like physics issue, where if Cloud tries to close the door it bounces back and forth in the frame until it reaches light speed and instantly kills him if he gets near it.

C’mon, Cloud! Were you cloned in a barn?!
