Unless it's something they're genuinely passionate about that gives them purpose, it's the saddest thing in the world. I don't think that describes the vast majority of us doing our mundane corporate slave work though.

Portrait is downright flattering compared to the truth. Take the win, Donny, cause you ugly.

There's some overlap in customers, sure but the vast majority of people who buy a Switch 2 aren't the types who would buy a Deck. Switch 2 will sell tens of millions more units to a mainstream consumer. And that's fine. Deck can still be a successful product in its own right as long as Valve is making a profit off of it through Steam software sales.

Money and power is all that these people hold sacred, and it’s impossible for them to ever have enough. I personally find it very amusing that Christians worship Trump when he’s the antithesis of their original savior.

There’s still a wild ape inside of the soft shy femboy that can be reverted back to in a desperate survival situation.

Yup. That is misinformation that was spread to me in the same manner and I gobbled it up. I'm much less angry since watching a YouTube video and learning about that in fact.

And Stanley Kubrick never won shit. These award shows are nonsense. Just the industry jerking itself off.

It is a nice reminder that even with the military might of America, there are still a hell of a lot more of us.

The list of games that aren't running well or at all is at least very small, so it's not much of a worry anyways. Only game I own that is on the list is Doom Eternal and I can play that handheld on Steam Deck now. Well, Rocket League too, but I'm sure Epic will release a better native version for Switch 2.

"Good things don't happen."

Then when they do, it's nice... but they usually don't.

I tried to get banned with my last couple posts but they ignored them I guess. Account is still there.

But then GTA3 was already the natural progression for the series. It's not that different than the 2D GTA games in terms of design... the technology just wasn't there yet to build it out in 3D until that point. I'm sure they were already in process of developing the game before seeing Shenmue and it would have turned out very similar had that game never existed.

More than Super Mario Bros, Doom, GTA3? Nah, son. False.

Maybe I’m just getting old, but I was very bored and underwhelmed during the entire presentation even before the terrible pricing reveal. I like the mouse joycons and the Donkey Kong game. That’s about it.

Total TILF.

Really a matter of perspective. Of course this system is going to label somebody who is a threat as a terrorist. Guess I like some terrorists now. I’m good with that.

Double cherry! Make many copies, slay many koopalings.

Hah. Oh hey... Look, it's in 4K after all!

Yup. Life necessities and stealing as much entertainment as I can with good old piracy.

Yeah, I think that's another huge factor that made the Switch so successful! It was priced at a point that households had multiple units and multiple copies of games like Kart and Smash. Only people doing really well are going to be able to swing that at these prices.

Hopefully this system isn't the smashing success that the first Switch was and it humbles them a bit. Beyond the price gouging, the novelty of the concept has worn some and this system really doesn't do anything all that exciting beyond improved visuals (which doesn't excite me as somebody who already has a good PC).

I'm a really huge Nintendo fan who has owned every one of their systems besides the Virtual Boy and bought most of those at launch. I was almost certainly going to purchase a Switch 2 as soon as I could... yet yesterday's lackluster software reveals followed up by the outrageous pricing has me saying the scalpers can have this one and Nintendo can go to hell.

It's likely that you're right and people are going to line up to reward them for this and it will lead to price increases across the entire industry unfortunately.
