Nintendo responded to a statement by an investor. How is that virtue signalling?
Stop forcing what? If gender equality was a thing, people wouldn't be making an issue out of it.
Most people I know have encountered stick drift. My launch joy con was real bad and started drifting within 3 months. I have new joy cons that I barely use (only when I play handheld which is rare). Mostly I just use a pro controller which has been fine.
They actually had a bunch of screens separately on ebay and not for ridiculous prices either. Particularly for the newest Switch revision. Almost pulled the trigger on one for $180 but changed my mind. This was pre pandemic though so those prices might suck now.
So because the Switch is selling well, they shouldn't even try to keep up with technology? Is that your point? Or because the Switch is selling well, they can keep rolling out upgrades at a snail's pace?
I like my Switch too but the number of recent titles that can't maintain a steady framerate is getting kinda ridiculous.
New 3ds was released 4 years after the original 3ds.
Same as the Switch OLED, it seems Nintendo is dragging its feet this gen.
Playstation is making more but demand for Playstation is also higher. They sell out in 6 seconds while the Xbox sells out in 6 minutes.
(made up numbers but you should get the point)
Your math is off. Game pass (at full value) costs $180 per year. That means you only need to be interested in 3 AAA games (or 9 indies, or some combination thereof) to break even on your investment.
It doesn't matter if you play 5 games within a year or 50. As long as there at least 3 on the service that interest you, then you break even.
Why are you so upset by this news?
Good observation. Hedgehog's life is probably valued pretty poorly compared to a human.
The exchange rate is broken. They have one Mario coin valued at $80,000 because at 100 coins, Mario earns an extra life and the insurance industry values a life at $8,000,000.
Sonic also earns an extra life at 100 rings, but they instead chose to place the exchange rate based on the ring to emerald conversion and not the extra life conversion.
Who buys a console at/near launch and then decides to sell it before its even been on the market for 2 years?
At least, you'll have no problem making your money back, but seems pointless to not wait until at least 2 years in to see how things are going.
Those games are just the 2nd half of the month. These games came out on Game pass earlier in the month:
For Honor
Backbone (PC only)
Darkest Dungeon
Arx Fatalis (PC only)
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
DOOM 2016
The Evil Within 2
RAGE
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Fallout (PC only)
Fallout 2 (PC only)
Fallout Tactics (PC only)
Fallout 3
Dungeons and Dr...
Mario games have always focused on gameplay over visuals so your comment regarding visuals doesn't really indicate whether the game is good or bad.
One reason which someone mentioned earlier is that when you buy a game, you can come back to it anytime you want. With a game pass game, there is a pressure to come back to it before it gets removed from the service.
And for reference, here's NBA 2k
NBA 2K17 2016 8.5 million
NBA 2K18 2017 10 million
NBA 2K19 2018 12 million
NBA 2K20 2019 14 million
NBA 2K21 2020 8 million
So true . I could never really get into Halo but depending on pricing, I'll pick up the battle pass and give it a try.
I believe Sony is the only storefront that actually removed the game, so what does that say about the others?
BoTW wasn't the only thing shown at E3. Either way, what you say you see everywhere, I've been seeing the opposite. There are those who were disappointed with Microsoft. And there were those who were disappointed with Nintendo. But I've seen almost no one (aside from yourself) say that E3 would've been better as an email because there was nothing interesting shown.
@frostypants, some might be confusing that but I am not. You are correct that some fields do not have enough men. One being teachers. Not enough male teachers, and so certain schools are actively seeking male teachers. Social work is another field in which males are underrepresented. However representation isn't the biggest issue. Men in the underrepresented fields still earn just as much as (if not more than) the women do in those same fields. However the same is not true for male domina...
