The King Of Kong documentary definitely makes him seem like he cheated in DK using footage taped on an emulator, so I'm assuming at least some of the later accusations are true. It's also true that he is actually good at these games at a near-top level because he's done either real highscores or at least ones close to them in front of live audiences. But he likely cheats on top of that to maintain some of his records out of pettiness and shit.

The bigger OLED model for Switch 1 at 7" has a PPI of 200, which is higher than most TVs and gaming monitors. The Steam Deck only has an 800p-tall screen. The lack of clarity people saw on Switch is mostly likely the game not hitting the screen's native resolution in the first place. The 120hz kicks ass, but a 1080p screen is a total waste on Switch2.

I will never own one so I guess so, although maybe theirs are built better or aren't soldered to the mobo (probably are).

Begging the mods to ban you for posting this.

Also I swapped out my Switch joysticks with hall effect ones which wasn't that hard but having to do that at all is fucking stupid.

I try to stay apolitical on social media,

But the last dem debate was an absolute disaster. I’m gonna join the race and win by just yelling over everyone from beginning to end at every debate. It’s not like the moderators will stop me.

Woke anarchist gamer Billy Mitchell.

Nevermind. 100% woke confirmed.

I felt 100% sure that he was but I can't actually find any information actually proving that at the moment. Wondering if maybe I just assumed he was 'cause he's at the intersection of every fascist influence of the US: cheater, small business owner, '80s nostalgia freak, wears a US flag tie and puts USA as his highscore input, white guy (Italian?)

They have existed since the Sega Saturn. They don't use them because there's a small trade off between top-dead-center accuracy and not wearing out on hall effect sticks as well as a minor cost difference (and I think power use). Although tunneling magnetoresistance is supposed to use less power and be more accurate overall while having the other hall effect benefits. The only draw back is that hall effect sticks are at the mercy of the springs in the stick since you need those to return the stick back to center, but that's about it.

Jut got hit by a blue shell. Nevermind.

Come back to Wii U. I'm playing MK8 online with a bunch of French people and I'm playing as Mii Stalin.

They bring out Kamala to call Trump the n-word during the next Democratic election campaign.

Yeah, they're pretty consciously fascistic and anti-communist now that they can feel the bolstering of anti-capitalist rhetoric from the masses breathing down their neck. We need to go harder on them (agitation) and expose them for the right wing psychos they truly are.

Annoyed no one can think of any retaliation or program that isn't just sales or import taxes. Like in Canada, just ban the fucking Teslas, dipshits. Don't even bother with taxing them, as much as I'd love to tax Tesla-buying dipshits.

Tesla, Nvidia lead 'Magnificent 7' losses premarket as EU tariff retaliation looms

"Magnificent Seven" stocks are sliding premarket, led by declines in Tesla (TSLA), Nvidia (NVDA), and Apple (AAPL), after China announced retaliatory tariffs against the US and the European Union prepares its own set of countermeasures.
. . .
"Roughly 50% of earnings in the Magnificent 7 come from abroad," Sløk wrote. "That is higher than for the S&P 500, where the share is 41%. With trade making up a bigger share of GDP in the rest of the world than in the US, the trade war will have a disproportionately more negative impact on the rest of the world."

"As a result," Sløk continued, "the Magnificent 7 will be hit harder on their global earnings than other S&P 500 companies. Their earnings could be even more negatively impacted if Europe retaliates in the form of a digital services tax."
Tesla dropped 6.7%.
Nvidia: Down 4.5%.
Apple: Down 4%.
Meta (META): Down 3.3%.
Amazon (AMZN): Down 3.2%.
Microsoft (MSFT): Down 2.4%.
Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL): Down 2.3%.

(don't know how to link the specific section I quoted, sorry)

Vinesauce fans are massively parasocial with Vinny too.

Wife just said maybe we should try an open world relationship. I am ruined.

In my screams and tears I asked if this was all just a game to her.

She said: "literally, yes."

I will never stop crying
