All clearly a big misunderstanding. This parent simply needed something for the kids to do after half of Andover blew up last Thursday, so he went to the mall to get them portable game consoles. He couldn’t use his ATM card, because they shut the power off in Andover after half the town blew up.

There’s some industrial grade dumb circling the drain in this thread.

Pretty sure I spent 21 hours just on Chocobo races and getting a Gold Chocobo on my last playthrough. That music still haunts my nightmares.

Massachusetts 8th is one of the goofier districts in the state. It’s shaped like a Gyarados mostly so that it avoids the wealthiest communities in the area. Very white, very blue collar, very Catholic. Stephen Lynch isn’t going anywhere, and Wu isn’t winning any votes showing up in Brockton in a Porsche. This is the…

Yes! Let’s applaud suicide, because that’s a good thing.

Your last paragraph illustrates the problem and the solution. Yes, we want NES and SNES classic. Yes, Nintendo wants to make money from those. Yes, Nintendo may feel that sales fall short on these projects (and Virtual Console) because the games are free online.

The first call was textbook. Runner is already tackled when Onwuasor comes flying in helmet first. The Correa call is also legit, as you can clearly see him drop his head before he initiates contact.

As long as we’re on the Disney train, where’s Tron? The most extensive use of computer graphics and green screen for its time.

Reuters. They still do what they’re supposed to do, and their exclusive reporting tends to be very good. I’d throw AP on the list if I could ever find a reliable way of accessing their stuff. They seem to change web addresses whenever enough of the layfolk figure out how to get at their feed.

Nintendo’s war with the emu community goes all the way back to the mid 1990s, when people were emulating the SNES, Gameboy and N64 while they were still on store shelves. Pokemon Yellow was one of the titles that could either be bought and played on Gameboy or downloaded and played free on your PC.

Although vinyl collectors would tell you differently, nobody really had to give up anything when the music industry has shifted formats; few people cared about the brand of their CD player, and few people minded when music shifted online.

I don’t know that I’d go that far. Networks are hungry for anything that will get people to tune in because everything else is way, way down. Something something person with one eye in the kingdom of the blind.

Who is being fired based on public outcry? Name one person.

You must be terribly upset that John Schlatter is no longer with Papa John’s.

The “online mob” had nothing to do with it. Try reading Mike O’Brien’s statements.

Should they have opened the office on July 4 and called Price in to fire her? Would those be acceptable optics for you?

As a member of the clan, thank you for this.

Valve released Portal 2 in 2011, and that’s the last time players returned to the Aperture Science Enrichment Center, except as a backdrop for demoing new VR tech.

I see you’ve read this

TWO HOURS of Sufjan Stevens? Hard pass. I’m not into games that torture the player.

It’s not an ad targeting program, it’s an analytics program. It works something like this (according to Red Shell):
