Huh, did EA just got me excited for a Star Wars game!? Whoooot?

All of this is true. I neglected to mention that because I didn’t think you could survive with 150€ a day in Paris as a tourist

150€ will net you a stay in most countries in the EU except scandinavia and too big cities.

For 150€ a day, Budapest, Warsaw, Split, Prague, Vilnius, Salamanca, etc.

Be mindful of where you rent, make sure to have travellers insurance, don’t get scammed for BS reasons (like peeps trying to make you believe you need to pay high money to use the autobahn in Czechia). Be mindful of pickpockets anywhere southwest of Paris and enjoy the food and locals.

This is a pretty good take on all of this. MS, Sony and Nintendo have done nothing but enshitify their platforms in the past few years and yet, they increase the cost of admission at every enshitification step.

Cool, shit is bad for you if you eat it, 100%.

Go try that now.

No, Apple bent the knee for concessions on tarifs. If you live in the US the chance your comms are backdoored on iOs is 100%.

Ye, that shit is everywhere, also gaming indian sites that recycle and produce AI slop are popping everywhere like mushrooms. Perhaps the dead internet theory is closer than expected.

If the SD pans out well in the control scheme, this one is going in the library.

For everyone chiming in with piracy (which I support): Layden is more calling Nintendo fans “junkies” than advocating for 80$ prices. His message (even in the face of Ryan’s LSG push) has always been “first party exclusivity sells consoles”.

Uh, newsflash, the Euro appreciated vs RMB and USD to the tune of 10%. GTFO with this “trying times” nonsense. You’re increasing the price because there’s a massive hole in your accounts thanks to Jim Ryan’s regarded chase of live service games. How much did he get as severance and how many consoles do you need to sell for those 50€ to cover that golden parachute?

Looks at my 15y old WERA… Ok…

I think Millenials and zoomers forgot about the oldest, most important axiom of Youtube: If it’s being advertised or sold by Youtubers, it’s likely a scam!

He’s creating a market that will boost the value of the assets he already owns…

This is a testament that Nintendo thinks the same as I do about their fans 🤣🤣🤣

Oh, I’ve seen this one. where’s scientology Tom in this episode?

And rightfully so…

Looking foward to see sony slap a 40€ price on it, sentencing it to be another multi-million write off.

Hopefully someone will have some common sense and this will be a boon to shooter fans. Market’s pretty saturated tho…

Average reaction of a Nintendo fanboy to abuse:

Step 1: this is expensive

Nintendo: kawaiiiiii

Step 2: shut up and take my money you cute souless overlord

“It’s legal if the president does it!”

At least that’s what the grapevine says about how that came together.

This is when I stopped reading because this is demonstrably false. The 214 scratches the Cortex 53 cores and is semi-custom hardware. That also ignores the obvious deal to cheapen the Tegras, which was basically handing NVIDIA the Chinese market on a silver platter, which Nintendo really didn’t cater at all…

AMD had nothing low power/long battery to offer but the jaguar at the time, so Nintendo had to deal with one of the most hated companies in order to get a competitive mobile chip, rather than doing it in-house with licensed off the shelf ARM chips like before. They took a page from SONY and went with a custom GPU based solution, but lacking a solid hardware department (AMD did a lot of the heavy lifting over the years) they just went with NVIDIA because there was almost no other game in town at that price (see Chinese market above, no one else was trying to get into streaming for the Chinese market and needed a strong game library).

That’s it

Edit: regarding output switching… You must be using an apple phone and never heard of MHL… Jesus… It’s like with Apple fans, shit exists for a decade but they honestly think it was Apple that came up with it. M8, and let’s not start with the joycons, they are pretty shit, prone to failure and the design is so garbage that even Nintendo spent R&D not to use that trash sliding mechanism again…
