Good idea, but it’s too little too late. The problem isn’t just births, young people are also leaving Japan in droves.

The hardware for those mods costs as much, if not more, than the entire controller from Nintendo.

2.4 GHz is complete overkill for old games that used to poll the controller 60 times a second anyway. On top of that, it always requires an adapter, which can be inconvenient on the go. Even if they built it in on the Switch, I don’t care, I mostly use the retro controllers on the Steam Deck.

Those controllers have been improved upon, true, but they are what those old games were designed for. The N64 controller especially is annoying to replicate with modern controllers.

Console exclusives are bad, but consoles in themselves are a useful part of the industry. They provide a hassle-free experience for players, and a stable target for game developers. They’ve used their position to be parasites, that’s true, but they don’t have to be to survive.

It’s a good starting hypothesis. Maybe it won’t hold out, but you’ve got to start somewhere, and it’s a pretty safe assumption.

Reject lame government tracked cars, embrace true freedom with bikes 😎 no registration, no tracking.

Disabling JavaScript is pretty easy, use NoScript ! Then you can selectively allow just a few scripts, plus it’s fun to find out how few you can let run on each page.

I’m sure there will be second hand ones soon enough

That slogan is whack though. I suggest “Go fasc, go crash !” instead. (Pronounced “go fash”, as in “fascist”)

I disagree with that, they do both good and bad things right now.

Re-making their retro controllers with Bluetooth is phenomenal. I absolutely love them, I’ve bought every single one (and I will eventually replace the joysticks. That’s an industry problem, not a Nintendo problem)

But renting retro games ? Fuck that. 90€ Mario kart ? Fuck that too ! And the switch 2 price is ridiculous. I’ll stay on Switch 1 and steam deck until there is a significant drop.

I paid Nintendo 70€ once for their Bluetooth N64 controller, and I emulate the games.

I would buy the games if they offered, but I refuse to rent them.

But I can make my own thanks to the absence of DRM. I’ll be able to play my personal copy offline in 15 years.

I am. I just mostly buy my games on GOG.

The “Search” button is already AI mode 😂

That is impossible for disc based games afaik (rewritable discs are just physically different from normal ones, and much less durable) but for cartridges it absolutely should be possible.

It would also be cool if the cartridge also stored save data like they used to, for a true all-in-one experience.

No game on card ? No buy.

I’m willing to pay for games, in two circumstances :

1. A physical copy with a full working game on it (even if, understandably, it’s not the latest version)
2. A digital copy with no DRM

Nintendo obviously will never provide the second option, and if they also refuse to provide the 1st, I guess I’ll have to take my business elsewhere.

No full playable game on disk ? No buy !

Legalize all drugs to defund the cartels.

Have proper regulations in place to actually prevent minors from accessing them and guarantee there are no harmful additives. Make rehab free so that people don’t get stuck in there.

If morphine was legally obtainable, no one would be using fentanyl. Stop the arms race now.

Are there any games on this list that are not available on GOG ?

Can’t the police just take the license plate and file the ticket in later at the precinct ? That’s what they often do here in France afaik.

4 hours of focused work is generally the maximum, in my opinion. I usually add 4 more hours of low-intensity work on top, to keep up with all the administrative stuff etc.

This is highly dependent on sleeping well and eating healthily, though, and on taking at least one day off per week, if not two.

I’m of the opinion that working hard is foolish, I’m focused on working well. Some days I can do 5 hours, some days I can do 5 minutes. That’s okay, no work is always better than bad work.
