  Must have had too many heated arguments in customer support I guess.

  Chances are that he bought twitter to gain influence in mass media. BTW those 42 billions were investor’s money, he’s still the richest man on earth.

  I see. Well there’s not way you could know this if you’re out of the loop

  Idk, here they are pirating stuff a the expenses of a single modder from what I gather. And just to sava 5 usd? Really? A soft drink costs more and it’s probably unhealthy. There’s work behind these things, that ain’t free, you get it?

  There’s as many gb emulators as possible, for a while i used nostalgia emulator (great ui and functional save state feature) but you can also run retroarch and other multiemulators. The one thing you need is the rom, but that is another story.

  You’re right on this…that was to say that minimalism never disappeared. I mean, as the technology evolved we adopted complex and detailed graphics. Of course, that was what they could do with what they had. Still, some atari games were complex, if not cryptic, some would be now full arg. Like that swordquest series, with modern technology that would have been a huge arg.

  If you really want to experience the magic of a good covert art check the us version of ico compared to the japanese/eu cover art. Now, that’s gonna be fun…

  I think it’s still true, after all the success of minimalist games (like vvvvv) and similar concepts is a tangible proof of that. Than, if we go back to the past, both atari and nintendo games used the in-game gaphics on the cover art. I remember getting into games cover art after that avgn cover art christmas episodes…side note: they’re still fun, give it a watch of you want.
