Gotta make sure everyone’s prepared for WW3.

These are novelty mailers. I recently had a friend move, and my housewarming present to him was getting “Trucker Nuts Magazine” complete with used underwear mailed to him. I also made sure to require a signature upon delivery.

Where did I say it made me angry that others like Nintendo? I’ve literally owned every single Nintendo console and have the Smash edition Switch. I’m saying their games are boring and very low effort a lot of the times these days. Zelda is the exception. What other critically and commercial successful first party titles do they have, besides Zelda and Mario? The last few Pokemon games have been the definition of low effort and have bombed critically. Smash was fun but the online was so bad it would have been better off just not even having it. I’m saying Nintendo is a shadow of their former glory and wish they would get their shit together and stop making games exclusively for little kids. They weren’t always the children’s game developer. I adored the NES/SNES/N64/GameCube. They just are kind of a parody of themselves at this point.

The Zelda games have been pretty critically successful with the last two entries. What other first party Nintendo games in the last 5 years have been commercially and critically successful?

FTC leaks show that Xbox is third in what? Sales? Because the Switch isn’t even the same generation as the Series X - it’s way behind in terms of power. Even if we’re just talking console sales, the Xbox hasn’t been constrained by hardware in almost a decade. The Xbox environment and Game Pass have completely revolutionized gaming for myself and millions others. Sure, I have a Series X and PS5, but I haven’t even turned either on in 6 months. I game on PC, but usually through Xbox Live because they’re at the forefront of crossplay (pretty much invented it) and I can play with friends in discord, Xbox One, Series X, Steam, whatever with no problem.

The NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube all powerhouses that directly competed with or were even more powerful than their competitors. They only started neutering themselves with the Wii. Online gameplay on GameCube was great. The Wii was the start of them no longer focusing on power. The WiiU was just a mistake, and the Switch was obsolete before it even released.

Nintendo makes gang busters because they focus on catering to young children. The last Pokemon games were some of the most financially successful games of all-time IIRC, but they’re also awful glitchy cash grabs that pretty much everyone hated. Smash and Mario Kart keep the adults coming back, but there’s several alternatives to both these days. I don’t know any serious gamers that even consider Nintendo to be a serious option these days.

I’ve got a Switch. Bought it for Smash. After the glitchy online nightmare that was Smash Online, I haven’t touched it since. It’s been sitting on a shelf collecting dust until my toddler daughter is old enough to play it. Nintendo is a joke of a company these days and a shadow of their former glory. Don’t even get me started on how litigation-happy they are anymore.

It’s 2023: why don’t we have a Skyrim style Pokemon game, or even a fully 3D Pokemon game, for that matter? Nintendo knows their fanboys will gladly accept any dogshit they shovel their way, and then ask for seconds.

Yeah, Bethesda is crashing and burning so hard right now.

It’s 2023 and Nintendo is still churning out the same minimum effort bullshit Pokemon and Mario games, and they still haven’t figured out online multiplayer. The max resolution of the Switch is 1080p 30 FPS. Nintendo is a joke and a shell of it’s former self.

Not saying Microsoft should buy them, but someone (not Sony) needs to get in there and bring that company kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

Sounds good, any time!

Did you ask for the entire restaurant’s consent before you did this? Pretty rapey.

I’m not sure that’s the intention of this community, my friend. Notice the NSFW part haha.

Did the girl in the middle in the first picture switch hair with the girl on the left for the second picture?

Have none of these people watched, like, any sci-fi movie ever?

I’ll have to try some other ports out! I’m still pretty early in the game, just thought I had missed something somewhere lol. I’ll add glad hab back onto my ship!

Awesome! I was wondering what I was missing. So you buy your different stations and whatnot at vendors, and that’s not in the build screen, right? I assume there’s some kind of fabricator that I can also buy and add to my ship, but they don’t really do a great job of explaining any of that haha.

Question to those who may know: I swapped my crew habitat for one of the 3x1 habitats last night, and noticed afterwards that the new habitat did not have a research station. I tried switching it to the engineering version of the hab, but no luck. Anyone know how I can get it back?

I really had no idea it was still around, or at least heavily in use.

Swappa is pretty damn handy. I’ve bought and sold several phones on there. Etsy has some really cool stuff, but some of the sellers on there are absolutely delusional. I’ve never checked out Poshmark. I’ll have to check it out some time.

I’m curious - what is the shirt? I’ve got a really cool vintage one with the big yellow ‘M’ and Japanese characters under it that I picked up second-hand almost twenty years ago now. It sadly no longer fits because uhh it totally shrank and I didn’t just gain a little weight.

People still use eBay?

No, no. This was clearly uploaded from a potato.

Capaldi had a rough start but ended up having some great episodes. I watched through the end of his run, and then watched the first episode or two with Whittaker. She wasn’t very good and seemed like she was doing her best Matt Smith impression, so I just kind of fell off on Doctor Who. Now with my Doctor returning, I feel obligated to go back and rewatch all of New Who, as my girlfriend hasn’t seen it.

Oops haha. Accidentally merged his name with Donal Logue. Yep, Domhnall played Bill! Him and his dad were in HP. Brendan is such a great actor, too. In Bruges is easily a top 10 movie for me! Domnhall killed it in Ex Machina and Black Mirror, as well.

They’re literally meant to be space Nazis haha. Right down to the uniforms and flags. TLJ when Donal Gleason’s character is giving a speech was very heavy-handed with it. These guys sided with the space Nazis!
