Of course you, who looked into this, barely have any notice.

My point is the prices are down even with the increase.

Nintendo, unlike Xbox and Playstation, is also one of the few where if things go poorly the management takes pay cuts rather than cutting jobs, and takes risks that justify those reserves if things go really poorly (like the Wii U or GameCube).

And just as an example of how much lower the price of video games has come:

If you want to pirate because you can’t afford it go ahead - with how shitty things are in the world, especially the USA, I’m not against it. Heck, if you need a pristine 1st generation Switch (the one that’s super easy to hack without hardware modification) I’d be glad to sell you mine. I use my PC for modded gameplay anyway.

All I’m saying is the cheap game gravy train could only go on for so long, especially with ever increasing development costs. Nintendo has in part managed to keep those costs down because they’ve kept things at 1080p / 30 (or 24)fps for so long.

End of the day, your paycheck not keeping up with inflation is your country’s fault, not Nintendo’s. If you live in the USA, you’re definitely angry at the wrong people, since Japan isn’t the one doing tariffs and eroding your worker laws.

Don’t know, use internet these days, but in ye old days taxes sort of applied to long distance calls in a way so I’m unsure

There is justice. Many just don’t want to administer it themselves, which is understandable.

I’ve also had a lot of luck with Bazzite so far too.

I believe the tariffs do apply to digital goods as well depending where the server is.

Either way, the main reason would be because of digital was cheaper it would cannibalize physical sales.

Only some games are like that, and the ones that are, are cheaper.

I don’t know how you think Mario Party Jamboree is unfinished tho. It’s felt like the most polished one on years - probably since the first one on the Wii, except it has even more stuff than that.

It’s 70 and 80 tho?

And as an old, even with this price increase games are cheap, especially with how much time you get out of them.

I remember when Mario 3 was 50$ in 1990.

That’s a 120$ today I think.

Mario 3 was way easier to make.

You can train the models locally now too. Have been able to for awhile actually, don’t even need the latest graphics card, a 3090 or older high server GB cards would work.

Yeah, you’re right, people are too soft.

They should do that was done to Nazis during the war instead. Let me know if you volunteer walking into a BAR.

It’s people like you why I have to keep this damn gif around:

And then he ended up with the Pine twins! Next thing you know, a damn triangle is messing up the space time continuum

France’s arsenal is enough to wipe out most of Russia’s population, since most of Russia is villages and nature, with most of it concentrated in the western side

And if Russia does so Germany and France might do the same.

Hence why they haven’t picked any fights against NATO either.

Finland, Sweden, and Estonia will take over St. Petersburg while Russia is busy trying to take a Baltic region that has the support of the rest of Europe? Not to mention I think Poland won’t allow that shit to happen a THIRD time in about a century - they’ve been prepping for awhile now.

I mean, it would turn into a three pronged war where the first prong has already been struggling to even keep territory let alone gain it. Most of the pro soldiers are gone and it’ll be conscripts dealing with professional armies with modern tech.

It’s not an association fallacy or poisoning the well if those things are actually being done, which has already been covered in the previous comments. Goggles is another current example of that.

You can go on and have your last word now, I’m done with your bad faith argument. I think there’s enough evidence in this comment thread by now for others to see you’re being disingenuous.

I’m sorry, do you genuinely think that burning some random guy’s car is actual retaliation?

When that car has become a symbol, definitely. The car being burnt isn’t random after all.

Otherwise your statement has the same energy as saying we shouldn’t burn some random guy’s work uniform. It omits that this is the uniform:

You really underestimate how many people buy above their means for cars.

As far as I’ve seen, most Teslas being scorched are dealership ones, not personal ones. But even if it were a personal one, isn’t insurance mandatory in the USA? Probably would get a bigger payout if someone did torch it rather than trading in at a dealership. And would definitely probably get more out of it than if it were just keyed and the tires were punctured. Bonus, one less swatsicar in circulation.

If you’re happy with tracking and spying at the browser level, then fine, but I’m interested in how we can put an end to that.

And brave has shown it’s not a solution to that at all, so there’s literally no reason to defend them, or use them.

Goggles is the first part, the owner is the second part

In short, I support these probably for the same reason you oppose Eich: I believe in freedom. I guess I define that a bit more liberally than you do.

I know you fake mofos are the type to always need to get the last word because it makes it seem to other dumdums that getting the last say is somehow “winning”, but I’m leaving this link here for anyone who remotely might believe your take is a good one:
