They’re sure pricing themselves to be in the “core” gaming space now.
- Comment on The Switch 2: Is it worth buying? 4 hours ago:
Cyberpunk 2077 - a 5 year old game which most people have played and is still better on PC or PS5/Xbox; why is that a compelling launch title?
Because it’s portable! Oh, wait, it’s been playable portably for years on the Steam Deck and other PC handhelds.
- Comment on The Switch 2: Is it worth buying? 4 hours ago:
I’m a Nintendo fan (of their games, not their business practices), have owned all of their consoles (even a Virtual Boy) and I don’t plan to go anywhere near a Switch 2 unless Nintendo gets humbled again. They’re at “Sony at PS3 launch” and “Microsoft at Xbox One launch” levels of arrogance currently. The PS3 eventually came down to a reasonable price, but the 360 was my first and last Microsoft console.

cute and fun image yet they’re the most cut throat, “you’ll own nothing and like it” company
Them and Disney.
- Comment on Microsoft and Asus announce two Xbox Ally handhelds with new Xbox full-screen experience 10 hours ago:
I know the Switch 2 is already doing stuff like Cyberpunk 2077
It’s 4 1/2 years old and already runs on other handhelds. Not really an impressive feat.
they already struggle to push out big budget tentpole franchises as is illustrated by Mario Kart World being the only big release title.
Yeah, I read that they only released something like 22 original titles in the 8 years the Switch has been around. That’s not counting any ports, remasters, and the like, which make up a hefty chunk of their Switch releases. They got away with it before because so few people had a Wii U, but they need to up their game to make the Switch 2 appealing to the masses, especially with the high price tag. It’s not a promising start, with announced titles being Donkey Kong Bananza (which looks great) and a whole bunch of Switch 1 upsells, including Metroid Prime 4, which will be released for both consoles. Feels like they’re trying to cannibalize their Switch 1 releases the way they did their Wii U ones.

The difference is that nobody’s releasing games specifically made for the Deck. Some are including optimizations to make their games run decently well on it, but it’s not a AAA machine. I bought one knowing this full well and am satisfied playing less demanding games on it, but it’s not going to be playing new demanding games, unlike with dedicated consoles.

The oldest Millennials are 44 now, and the term is still sometimes used to mean “young people.” But only by older people.

Millennials are now “old” by internet standards, so Gen X and older are positively ancient.

I had those exact speakers! Kept using them until a few years ago when one finally died, too.
- Comment on Nintendo whenever anyone posts anything about anything related to Nintendo products online 4 days ago:
I’ve been a Nintendo fan since 1988. Their astounding arrogance and greed with the Switch 2 has turned me off completely to them. I’m going to take extra pleasure in playing Metroid Prime 4 on my hacked Switch 1. It’s probably the last new game from them I’ll be playing until a Switch 2 emulator comes out.

“Beat” as in have more users? No, never, and it’s better that way. “Beat” as in be a better user experience for those who have the little bit of tech literacy need to use them? It has been for years.

Incorrect, temperature isn’t only measured in whole numbers. The whole thing should be solid black with arrows.
