I'm just not going to buy it. Boom.

If a Switch 2 game comes out that I really want to play (doubtful; I haven't enjoyed a Nintendo title since the GameCube), I'm pirating and emulating the fuck out of it.

Because Japan's copyright law is fascist as fuck. Fair use doesn't even exist there.

I went out of my way to buy a LightScribe drive for my 2008 build [C2D E8400, 4GB DDR2 800, AMD HD 4870, Vista Ultimate + Linspire], and I never even used the feature. Burned less than a dozen discs total as well.

I feel like optical media died around that same time. Netflix introduced its streaming service, torrents entered the mainstream, Blu Ray flopped, and MP3 players replaced CD players (and then streaming replaced MP3 players shortly after). Didn't even bother with an optical drive in my 2014 build [i5-4670K, 16GB DDR3 1866, GTX 780, Win8.1 + Ubuntu]. Current build doesn't have one, either [7700X, 32GB DDR5 6000, 4090, Win11 + Arch]. Just been hanging onto the same drive since 2008, for the rare occasion that I actually need to burn a disc. At this point it's been over 5 years.

Yeah seriously; this won't even stop normies. Everybody knows how to take a picture with their phone. Why bother?

Not browsing All nearly enough

Russia is manipulating him.

Edit: I don't actually believe this; I just thought it would be hilarious to have two comments with opposing answers. Fuck Kanye

YSK that if you have an internet connection, there's a free streaming service called Stremio, no library card needed. The only other thing you need to watch any movie or show you want is the Torrentio addon. (I'd also suggest Real-Debrid if you want faster downloads and instant streams, or you just want to keep your ISP off your ass without needing a VPN.)

Next time just use a Switch emulator. Sudachi is a good one.

You can even download Fitgirl Repacks of Switch titles that include the emulator already set up and ready to go. Literally just a one click install and you're playing.

The same thing happened with the Wii U but it still flopped. Nintendo's hardcore audience believes that the company can do no wrong, so they will always be lining up to be the first to get their latest system.

For the console to succeed, Nintendo needs to sell to more than just their core fan base. They need to convince the every day, casual gamer that their machine is different enough from the last one for them to even notice the Switch 2 isn't the same thing as the Switch. It already happened to the Wii U. Most people who aren't following this shit thought that it was just an addon for the Wii. I think it's going to happen again.

They also need to convince console and PC gamers that their system is unique and powerful enough to hold its own, and they've already failed on both fronts.

That's why I think it's going to flop. I hope I'm right.

This was my dad but thankfully he had ADHD, so he'd forget to hold a grudge after a day or two.

Still, it was annoying that every single minor inconvenience was this great injustice made to torture specifically him. He definitely was a narcissist with a healthy dose of main character syndrome thrown in for good measure.

I have a feeling that it's going to flop like the Wii U. It's nearly the same as the OG Switch and in both the looks and performance departments. 4K 120Hz support, my ass

It's got less than 10% the CUDA cores of a 4090, a GPU that can't hit 120 FPS in any modern AAA title without DLSS. The console won't even come close to hitting 120 in any title—period—not unless Nvidia creates a DLSS setting more extreme than Ultra Performance.

As always with Nintendo, It's all going to come down to the games, and given that they have been slapping a fresh coat of paint on the same games since the Wii, I doubt anyone but the most hardcore fans are going to be willing to drop $80 on them. A good chunk of the Switch's top selling games are literal re-releases from the Wii U. Tears of the Kingdom is literally the same game as BotW, even has the same map. Laziest sequel ever. It should have been a DLC.

Exhibit B: Baseball player Randy Johnson's unfortunate pitch timing.

I literally just bought the game so he better fucking not.

Edit: Jesus, lol; it was sarcasm XD

Literally killing people over their non-existent god. It's so pathetic and pointless.

The first time my new kitty sat on my lap, I was stuck on the couch for 3 hours. Had to pee so badly, but it was worth it.

His name is James, and he is a dapper gentleman.

🎵 How did it end up like that?
It was only a cat,
(it was only a cat!) 🎵

🎵 Now I'm lying in bed,
and she's screaming my name.
Tried to pull out my dick,
but I already came.

🎵 Now we're going to bed,
And my stomach is sick,
And it's all in my head,🎵

Mine does, and it's only 2 years old. Make sure you've set the water level knob to either "auto", or "fill tub/XXL" if you like wasting water.

That said, I can assure you that modern washers use enough water, even if you disagree. You're probably just using too much soap. Ditch the softener too. It collects at the bottom of the washer and turns into a hard wax, which will eventually clog your drain pipe.

There's not a single design or statement that I like so much, that I'd want to permanently ink it into my skin. Getting tattoos is common in my family, but it's not for me. They just turn into an ugly, blurry mess as you age, anyway.

Again, it's coming to PC. Every GTA game comes to PC eventually. Rockstar purposely waits 6+ months to announce the PC version, because they know people like you will double dip. It happens every single time, and you keep falling for it.

I'm not saying that Rockstar is in the right for doing it this way, but they keep doing it cause you keep forgetting that they do this every time. The downvotes prove it; none of y'all ever learn. That's why I'm so annoyed.
