Plus stuff like online play gets a lot trickier. Not playing Splatoon 3 crossplay with some Steam Deck emulator.

There might not be much of an incentive to buy a Switch over a Steamdeck for you and others who know how to set up high-quality emulation and know where to get the new games and who have no moral problems with piracy, but there will always be a market for people who aren’t that. People who can’t or don’t want to mess…

Yeah I agree, I’m still very happy with what the Switch is bringing me. For a long time with earlier consoles (especially Gamecube and Wii), people complained that Nintendo games didn’t look as good as PS/Xbox games or that their favorite multi-platform games weren’t coming to Nintendo, but we seem to have generally…

I don’t really play my Switch, but it definitely sounds like some of their newer staples have suffered performance issues, and I imagine that wouldn’t have been the case on an even slightly more powerful system. Beyond that, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what they’re doing.

Stylized/cartoon graphics…

although they are saying this is “uncharted territory”, I just realized that the Switch is just trying to repeat what the original Game Boy did: taking slightly obsolete tech (even by 1989 standards) and keep it going through pure software.

On the flip side, inflation has outpaced wage increases greatly.

Pre-note: Burnedin has historically been a reasonable person on Kinja, but on this topic it’s best to just ignore their sorry ass. Transphobes will take ten miles for every inch people like Burnedin give them, so do everything you can to take it back. Donate and volunteer to pro-trans-rights causes, and boycott the…

Sirona Ryan is her name.

I mean, to be entirely honest, anyone who is actively supporting Kanye to the point of going to his show should absolutely be ridiculed.

She’s already fabulously wealthy so it’s hardly as if she gives a shit anymore anyways.

Cho Chang! Never forget what a hack she is even without the classism, colonialism, neoliberalism and transphobia.

I am unreasonably upset that the deal is $69 billion dollars. Like, I can picture these lawyers around a table making the offer: “What about $70 billion?” “No, make it $69 billion.” “Nice.” Was this on purpose? Is it some kind of juvenile joke? Who are these people handling these massive cash transactions?

“I don’t think they fully appreciate that it’s a free-to-play business, that the Japanese and Chinese companies dominate the industry.”

Considering the only black character in the books has the last name Shacklebolt, I can’t tell if this is a joke or sincere.

Will they be able to discuss the fact the openly trans character in the game is name Man Guyname?

One of the AMVs I’ll always always remember from my youth back before youtube existed, back before all of the movies were out, back before they even started the frieza saga dub in the states.

In his honor, I re-read this while listening to Linkin Park.

She’s not being nerfed, she’s being adjusted to better represent accessibility to modern healthcare

So... you could say that they were... merciless?

Given the online nature I think there was a reasonable expectation this would be supported for more than a year, but it seems the financial realities of the game performing well but not doing gangbusters ended those plans. Which makes sense and is totally understandable.
