Does Nintendo realize that shovelware crap like this keeps me from even looking at the eShop because I have no desire to do their job of curating the quality from the crap?

It’s for people whose eyes glaze over at the idea of getting up to speed with thirty years of fighting game conventions, movements, and techniques to even be able to do the most basic stuff in game. It lets them quickly get a feel for the basics of the game while learning how these special moves will interact before…

I wonder if it narratively, it’d be worth jumping straight to the Symphony of the Night story?

I never understood how they could create an unauthorized derivative of Pac-Man yet maintain the copyright to it?

I fall squarely into her definition of short men and my reaction is “Eh, it does suck to be short.”

Reminds me of Billy Mitchell. Guy was really good at video games, but let his willingness to cheat to be viewed as the greatest ever ruin the ability to trust even his legitimate successes.

Bet this is the same guy who went out of their way to spoil xxxxx’s death in FFVII on USENET way back in the day. Same energy.

I’m so white I waited in line for Windows 95.

My issue is that it makes so much of the game unmysterious, at least to Samus. You’re not a lone person going into an alien world discovering mysterious artifacts. You’re a superhuman going back to your childhood stomping grounds.

Now I’m scared to ask... is that not what Samus and the Chozo are??

I love Metroid but I really don’t like the lore.

I’m beginning to have serious questions about the canonicity of this game.

Maybe games below a certain price point shouldn’t be eligible for two-hour return, instead opting for one-hour return? Games shorter than two hours probably aren’t going to be charging more than say, $8.99 or so.

So Fortnite is really just an Unreal Engine delivery method; and Epic quickly drops in ripoffs of whatever game they think will make them a quick buck?

Just saw and personally love this anti-scalping measure:

They claim to have revamped Proton so that the majority of Steam games should work without the developer having to do anything.

This is not an elegant looking device. However, I have a friend who takes his laptop with him for gaming (truck driver), and is already drooling over this. It’s a much more practical portable solution.

I don’t get the appeal of streamers that are so big that they can’t/don’t interact with the chat, and the chat can’t even interact with itself there’s so much going on.

$5 was an excellent deal, enough so that I was subscribed even though I never really had time to play stuff. With it going up to $10, I’ll have to cancel and resub only if there’s something I actively have time to play.

Like, original Xbox? Are the tanks large enough?
