Which is totally fine, but $180 is a great price compared to the rest of the market for pro controllers. 

If you don’t see the difference between a $45 controller and the Elite, then you shouldn’t buy the Elite in the first place.

Nobody said you have to play on google stadia.

Yes:

Don’t assume their gender

Buy it anyway.  Worst thing that can happen is they come out with a new one to buy.  And we know they’ll never offer a third, no matter how popular the first two or how much demand there is...

Raising Chao in Adventure 2 Battle is one of the biggest highlights of my childhood gaming experience.

I know many disagree, but I love Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 (Battle). I haven’t played a Sonic game since, but if they made a proper Sonic Adventure 3 (without the Tails/Eggman levels) and doubled down on a detailed and rewarding Chao garden, I’ll consider the money spent.

That’s how they work for me as well. Don’t want to trigger some sort of event that’ll block my ability to explore.

Maybe if they did have instruction manuals, I’d call my mom and have her drive me to the store so I could jump…

Ah I didn’t catch that distinction (show floor vs. conference). Seeing the pressers live would have been something else. Maybe I just need to start a gaming blog and go as press in a year or two (is it that easy?)?

Well this is Kotaku. They have a hard enough time not being critical with other gaming but they love to rag on the one gaming giant that is trying to reinvigorate gaming. They could have made a positive article like this https://waypoint.vice.com/en_us/article/the-dying-man-who-found-hope-in-breath-of-the-wild but you…

.... Pokémon on the TV. Do you not realize how huge that is?

Are you the kind of person who is upset that the PS4 can’t output 60FPS at 4K?

Do you suffer anytime Minecraft dips under 200FPS?

Do you have seizures whenever a game has the audacity to run at 30FPS?

Do you cry yourself to sleep at night because your game stuttered in a way that requires you to analyze it frame-by-frame…
