Emulation still exists though. And the fan games are made by and for Nintendo fans. They usually also want to play the new Nintendo games as well, not just the fan games. And those fan games wouldn’t exist without the Nintendo games they’re inspired by. I mean, I guess if you only play old Nintendo games or fan games based on them, Nintendo disappearing could be good. But I would bet that there are many more people who want to play Nintendo’s new games, and will want to play the ones that are released in the future, than people who only want to play old ones/fan games.

Edit: Also

They kill competition with these practices.

So there should instead be 1 less company in the console space? That will increase competition?

I agree that they can fuck off with the patent thing. I’m not trying to defend their actions. Also yeah, if someone buys a pokemon game after not liking the previous one, then cries about it being bad, that’s on them. But not all of them have played one of the bad ones before. Although I guess if you don’t research before you buy, you can’t be too surprised. Also you have to keep in mind that the people complaining about the pokemon games online aren’t the majority of the people buying it. Most people buying them just want a pokemon game and don’t care too much about it’s quality as long as it still has what they like. Although that doesn’t excuse all the bugs and stuff.

But with Nintendo disappearing, how does that benefit anyone? If you don’t like Nintendo games, you can already just not play them. People buying them buy them because they like them. Them disappearing doesn’t help people who do like Nintendo games, and it doesn’t help people who don’t like Nintendo games.

What? Instead of them acting bad and overprotective about their games, you’d rather the games didn’t exist at all? That doesn’t make sense. There are problems with the company, but they still make good games. It’s not like they mistreat their employees or anything (as far as I’m aware).

Question: What happens if they do disappear like you want? Nintendo fans stop getting the games they like… and how does this benefit everyone else?

Also saying someone deserves to be scammed because they are uninformed is weird. Some people just don’t read gaming discourse and reviews, they’re not obligated to. And some people actually like the games despite their flaws, but that doesn’t mean they don’t deserve a better game.

Second Wind made a response. Everyone else at Second Wind disagrees with Frost and is happy with Nick. Quote from Yahtzee:

I wish him well and that he’d focus on his future rather than trying to stoke petty drama in ways that reflect badly on him more than anyone else.

Ugh it’s a goddamn hero shooter (they say it isn’t but it sure looks like it to me). What made splitgate good was the simplicity. I’ll still try this out, maybe they manage to make it good, but I don’t have my hopes up.

I’m annoyed cause I was actually excited for this

Oh my god that trailer was so good

A tower defense game with a microprocessor theme

Does anyone remember that club penguin tower defence game where you defend against computer viruses?

Here’s an underrated game recommendation: Patrick’s Parabox. Probably the most well designed puzzle game I’ve ever played.

Pseudoregalia mentioned!

Also lol at “worse graphics” for Rainworld. An amazing looking game. Though it probably doesn’t actually mean worse graphics, just less realistic graphics

the world also needs more concise games

Yeah!

those 20-40 hour masterpieces

…wait, concise?

Balatro, game of the year for me so far

However long it usually takes Nintendo to approve updates. Dev said approximately a week or two

I agree I always get cramps whenever I play mario kart in handheld. That’s why I buy as many of my games as I can on the Steam Deck instead.

It’s not about worrying that I won’t be able to do stuff again, just the existence of the ever-looming timer is stressful. And you have to water your crops every morning, and harvest them when they’re ready. You can only plant certain crops in certain seasons. There are requests on the bulletin board that have time limits. Shops are only open on certain days, and I know if I don’t do that thing today I won’t be able to tomorrow because it will be closed. If the timer didn’t matter, then there wouldn’t be a timer.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Stardew Valley. But I stopped playing it, partly because I found it too stressful. Which isn’t great cause people always advertise it as this really relaxing game, and I’m sure it is for them, but I guess my brain just works differently. And I really want to like Stardew Valley more, I want to be able to play it and relax.

I’m not even trying to minmax or anything, I try to take my time, but it doesn’t really work. I can’t just ignore the timer, cause then I’ll pass out and wake up with hardly any stamina.

Edit: Also “you can just focus on one thing” sure, but then what do I do for the rest of the day?

Don’t know how to post the boomerang, but passed everything else (I think) as a 20 year old gen z

You just got lucky, I guess. Or maybe you don’t use the joycons as much? I had to send my joycons back because of drift 3 times. Joycons aren’t full on falling out, but one of them will come out without pressing the button. Kickstand is also pretty useless, falls out from a tiny bit of pressure.

It wouldn’t need to say HighContrastForAccessibilityPurposes though, it would ideally just be HighContrast, and the “for accessibility purposes” would be a comment, right?

Ah right. You could do a paid Redis service if you use the SSPL license though, right?

But paid Redis hosting wouldn’t be allowed on the new license.

Where does it say this? I can’t see that in the SSPL
