Accelerationism in a nutshell.

There’s also just a substantial number of people that were just astroturfers, I think.

There’s been a LOT of crazy attacks on the switch 2 to try to ‘justify’ a boycott. I think my two favorite was that the gamechat button noise when you hit is actually saying saying a slur, or maybe that the rumble turns off after a while not to protect your hands from the rumble (which has been found to be bad for you), but because Nintendo cheaped out on a rumble motor that overheated too easily.

The switch 2 joycons don’t have a rumble motor. Like, it’s a whole thing they’re super proud of, because it’s so precise they just use the rumble really fast to play music instead of having a speaker.

Honestly, the whole idea of trying to boycott nintendo has pretty much always been over astroturfed bullshit, or just outright bullshit.

Every single one of those fuckers calling it a riot had either pictures of ice assaulting people with clubs, rubber jacketed metal bullets and tear gas, or the exact same picture of one singular car on fire. I have to wonder if it was ice that set the car on fire for the photo op.

The difference is that none of those characters had their stories wrapped up.

Geralt’s story was wrapped up in Witcher 3. That was the whole point.

The point is that you DIDN’T make a choice, because you were colluded against. Why so much focus on honoring your agreement, when they aren’t honoring their agreements?

You’re missing the part where, because of federal interest in schooling loans (because the government wants a well-educated population, typically), you have a captive market with colluding loan companies that abuse said federal interest to jack up education prices and interest rates. In other words, you don’t have an option but to accept the ‘terms’ of the predatory loans unless you don’t go to college… except the federal government wants you to go to college.

So student loan forgiveness is basically the federal government yanking the collusion back and going “no, they pay off the loan and a REASONABLE AMOUNT OF DEBT, and the rest of the absurdity you’re trying to shovel gets canceled because it should have never been tried in the first place.”

And then conservatives whine and cry about their tax money going to 'paying off student loans" because conservatives are idiots that can’t comprehend why a rich person would lie to them.

Is… Is that norm Abrams?

Just keep moving those goalposts, kiddo.

Sure, it’s located at https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=Nintendo+lawsuit+against+palworld

You’re getting down votes from astroturfers, idiots, and kids who can’t handle attacks on their precious favoritist little game, but you’re right, palworld has zero leg to stand on here and they’re lucky their company even still exists with the sheer scale of blatant theft going on. But DAE Nintendo bad hurr hurr?

I did, and even rechecked it just now- not a single person says using journalctl is tedious. A few say it doesn’t give them the data they actually are needing, but nobody is randomly hating on journalctl.

Why make things up? Why lie? Not a single person argued that typing journalctl was too tedious, let alone OP.

Even, yes, for first party Nintendo games.

Series S is $299 here, unless you’re getting used. PS5 digital is hardly apples to oranges, considering the Switch 2 isn’t offering a cartridgeless version.

I also like your arguement about the switch 2 somehow being lesser because it’s going to get scalped, very pointedly ignoring the PS5-shaped scalper elephant in the window. I guess I spoke too soon in the other post- you didn’t manage to delete all examples of cutting Sony and MS a break, you’ve got one right here!

As for the price, sony and microsoft charge $70 for a standard edition game, but also often incomplete and requiring extra money from ‘DLC’ or ‘premium/deluxe’ editions to actually be properly playable/have the baseline plot/lore, which nintendo doesn’t do.

I can’t, because you went and deleted it lmaooooo

The reason I think it’s astroturfing is because there’s a lot of people who are critical of Nintendo, while simultaneously giving Sony and Microsoft a free pass for doing the exact same thing, or even just making things up outright to bash Nintendo, like your claims that it’s ‘hardware that is long in the tooth at launch.’

Then what exactly are you expecting? The market for new consoles is currently:

Switch 2: $449

Xbox Series S: $299, less resolution/less fps, less powerful than the switch 2

Xbox Series X: $499, more expensive, same resolution/fps, more powerful (tflops) than switch 2, 15.7x the size

PS5: $499, more expensive, same resolution, more fps, more powerful (tflops) than switch 2 but less so than series x, 24x the size

The switch 2 was positioned, and announced, as a portable console capable of similar power levels as one console generation ago, and it overdelivered- the common comparison is that it’s more powerful than a PS4. For a handheld, that is absurdly good, and the price is certainly in line with the rest of the market. The literal only outlier is the Series S being significantly cheaper, which tracks considering the switch 2 is more powerful than it, while being a handheld.

… It’s using modern hardware, with specs that are entirely reasonable for being a handheld. The fuck are you expecting, a ps6 that you stick in your pocket for $200?

Honestly I just have to wonder if it’s not astroturfing, or the results of astroturfing.

Lmao outrageously priced. It’s higher than it was, yes, but I remember the PS3 announcement.

Now THAT was outrageously priced!

$950 for the 60gb model after inflation!
