First party titles are basically the only reason to buy ANY Nintendo console. However there are alternatives. For example if you don’t have a Nintendo console but want to (legally) play a 3D Zelda game, just play one of the Batman Arkham games as it’s basically the same core gameplay loop. For a 2D Zelda game play Tunic.
“Wide assortment” would be my guess.
America needs ranked choice voting. Unfortunately the GOP has been banning it in every state they can.
If you go through your day and meet one asshole, they were an asshole. If you go through your day and keep meeting assholes…
…maybe instead of expecting the world to get more i tune with your sense of humor, the person who needs to make the adjustment is you. The Internet is made of strangers who can’t hear your tone of voice or see your tongue-in-cheek expression. Poe’s Law basically defines the Internet.
They’re not competing for the same slice of the pie, though. Microsoft isn’t trying to take Nintendo’s customers because Nintendo’s customers want very specific things that Microsoft isn’t really offering. For example, Nintendo caters extensively to parents who want a safe space for their kids to play online. The Switch doesn’t even SUPPORT voice chat without the aid of a separate smartphone. Xbox Live is notoriously the opposite of that, because they focus on teens and young adults, who Sony are also targeting. Basically Nintendo sells to a very specific market, and the other platforms sell to “everybody else”.
By contrast, in the 90s Sega was SPECIFICALLY trying to steal customers from Nintendo.
The headline is a cold take but the article goes in-depth into all the ways the FSB is aware of how China is probing Russia (for example, approaching disillusioned Russian scientists with access to classified tech, and employing academics to study cultural links between current regions of Russia and historic China, such as Outer Manchuria) as well as discussing long-term strategic considerations for all sides like how climate change will make Russia’s northern coast an attractive option for China to transport goods to sell in Europe, and old quotes by Trump about how his priority is to court Russia to “un-unite” it from China. There’s a lot in it, honestly, as the document (which the NYT received from hackers and consulted various intelligence agencies as to its veracity) is pretty detailed, apparently. It also mentions that China is studying the war in Ukraine as it figures out what would best counter Western military tech in the 21st century.
Those people would be dumb and if they can’t even figure out that The Incredibles are inspired by the FF then they were never gonna watch the movie in the first place. The whole reason Marvel got popular in the first place was that they made movies that comic fans wanted to see and the comic fans brought their families and friends
The Rise of Skywalker should have been lesson enough for Hollywood about why there’s no point planning your movie around what you think will get the Twitterverse the least mad, because they’ll get mad anyway
Hollywood in general and Disney in particular seem to be struggling to understand who their target audience actually is. There’s a difference between making a movie accessible and catering to the lowest common denomimator.
Pedro Pascal is 50; I’m not sure how many FF movies you think there are gonna be
Thanos was right
In what way is that a problem?
Well I meant more along the lines of getting fired, but sure
Nintendo aren’t in the console war anymore and have’t been since the gamecube. Nintendo consoles sell on the strength of Nintendo’s first party titles, of which they have many. Nobody else can use their IPs, so that’s their USP and as a result they don’t need to compete with anyone on graphical capability or processing power. It’s its own market.
He’ll take long-distance photos of the crowds so you can’t see the slogans on the picket signs, and he’ll spin it as “look at how many people turned up for my parade!”
And I hope it has stopped at least one of them from asking a really invasive question to a person who’s overly sensitive about the fact that they can’t have kids.
For having this mindset, you deserve all the good things in life
For purely nostalgic reasons I have difficulty agreeing but honestly yeah. Some of the best puzzles I’ve ever had the pleasure of solving.
