yeah agreed on this point, I dont think most people do this (unless replaying for the nth time)

thank you, that was what i saw. I was fully expecting to find articles that would back it up, (why else would you make such a claim?) but nope. I couldnt find anything to support it.

it was in a discussion on Bluesky, but nothing official.

I tried finding more info but couldn’t, so theres probably nothing to it. I’ll delete my previous comment as it was just unfounded rumours

I agree. The game development side of Nintendo are top notch, and care a lot about quality game design, fun, replayability, all the good stuff. These people do good work.

But the corporate/legal side of Nintendo, they are indeed raging assholes.

cliched yes, but I will always remember how scared as hell I was playing Silent Hill for the first time in high school, when you go down that dutch angle alleyway and the evil toddlers stab you to death…

i couldnt play any more for a few days haha, it was a pretty stand out memory for scary game stuff. Its hard to state how unexpected it was at the time, I hadnt played any early horror games, and I dont know how many similar experiences there were at the time (year 2000ish) so it really was brutal and surprising

Lol

thank you very much!! 👏

Whats the best way to play Sim Ant these days? Ive always wanted to try it

I love my switch, but speaking of replacements I’ve gone through too many replacement joycons.

I highly recommend Mario Maker 2 to everyone who hasn’t tried it, especially if you have kids with an interest in learning game design. It’s a great tool.

I concur, Doom 2016 is excellent it’s a good one to start with

i am a big new vegas fan, and follow a lot of youtubers and other parts of the fandom - I havent seen this backlash against the show this article mentions? Most NV fans are pretty happy with it that Ive seen.

Maybe this is only happening in the more toxic circles?

The hardware and corporate practises i would agree, (especially the hardware - extra shitty considering its aimed at families and kids and it wears out so fast)

But I have to disagree about the games. Their flagship games are consistently very good (so long as you’re a fan of the genres).

Thats nice to know they’re preserved somewhere.

“The key to these great sale numbers for our console exclusive game is that its only available on our console”

If you are into horror there are some excellent titles for ps2

Silent Hill 2, Siren, Fatal Frame, Kuon

(though theyve become a lot more popular and collectible recently)
