GameCube games MSRP was 49.99. Adjusted for inflation it is $79.30. The reason things feel so expensive is because you get half cooked broken DLC ridden games as the norm and a large portion of income goes toward housing, transportation (cars specifically), food and education.

It’s been so long. Still a surprise, but a welcome one.

At least now you can rely back with “can you also provide feedback for #1 & #3?”

Repeat until all items are cleared. Not perfect, but at least you don’t have to waste time rewording a follow-up email.

And recently with the actions of Mario’s brother (horrible “death panel” decisions were put on hold, etc.)

Mario kart sure does though. If it truly is whatever pricing they claim, it is THE GAME that could offset the development costs over the period of time it will be sold for going by past Nintendo consoles. There is one Mario kart per generation with maybe some (paid) downloadable content later.

I hated event Pokémon with a passion growing up. I bought my game boy on the US, but I would live half of the year in a country neglected by Nintendo, once back on the states for the working season (my parents) you could only get them by traveling somewhere stupid like New York (I lived in the other coast). Even when they started using mall wifi on game stores as events I still always associated it with a life I would never have and didn’t even bother as I could never legitimately complete a Pokédex legitimately so why try to start now. I can see how that would work in Japan perhaps, but maybe the country kids felt left out as well.

Used to travel for work and a switch at the time with BotW was a life saver for entertainment after work for the days we didn’t have some work get together planned (those were mostly Thursdays or Fridays). I have really good memories of that game.

I remember a work contact tipped me off on when they would be arriving to the target near work (he knew one of the people working there). Thankfully they were not being scalped enough and you could still find them for retail prices on that area.

They initially also only did it in places that consumer protection laws would force them to. Some markets (at least initially) didn’t get the same benefit.

Maybe they don’t live in a third world country like us?

He can be both: working for Putin and a complete moron.

You don’t threaten to sue the school you attended if they your grades are released unless you know they are nothing to be proud of. Also, that professor or teacher that said Trump was the dumbest student he had to teach in all his years.

People are referring to damaged physical media = can’t play it. That’s always been the case. You mixed 2 different things into the same point, which are wildly distinct and why people say they agree partially.

The point about Nintendo not having significantly larger sizes on games could be attributed to a few things:

• Their developers were sometimes exclusively making Nintendo games = more familiar with the hardware and how to use it effectively
• They were guaranteed to sell a few million copies of a game = they could afford to run the numbers on refactoring the games resources and asset logic to maximize cartridge size and still come up on top. With the scale of sales, this could cover a specialized developer exclusively optimizing techniques to save on that front
• Many third party studios run their games through some converter and fix what’s remaining, the result are turd sized and non-optimized executables. E.g.: see iOS and Android app and game install sizes.

More like, they’ve never been known to pass the savings to the consumer on the digital front. Some games were more expensive on the e shop than physical copies from time to time iirc.

Fully agree. I disabled the joycon motion controls on Zelda to be able to play it. I was not going to give Nintendo more money for another faulty replacement.

It is part of the reason I will not buy a switch 2. They evaporated the trust I had in them chasing profits by not acknowledging a very known problem.

It’s clear that it is lawyers and bean counters steering the company. The only thing they still have going for them is they delay games until they are acceptable, once that boat has sailed, you know it will be all downhill going forward.

I was about to say, I never got more than 3-4 on the one I own. You refreshed my memory. It also had an OLED screen on the updated hardware.

You don’t have to take my word on this, but when you have so many vulnerabilities, the foundation and knowledge about security practices by the developers is missing some key ingredients.

I use Jellyfin. I like jellyfin. I would like people to use jellyfin, but do it responsibly.

Citing backwards compatibility is not an acceptable answer either. If individual endpoints and/or protocols (web sockets) are being addressed as separate issues, then there is no overall filter for the most basic thing as checking if the user is authenticated, you know a potential attacker will look for more.

Will they target jellyfin instead of your average government website with a low budget and similar issues? Unlikely, but possible if the level of effort is low and can potentially create a large botnet, maybe?

You handle these with overall filters (or whatever they are called on c#) and white lists if something truly needs not to have it instead of reacting when someone reports it.

The simple fact that some of the code was sending api keys as GET parameters (which get logged cross every access log in the middleware on its way to the target server) and it didn’t raise any flags seems sufficient enough to suggest DO NOT expose jellyfin directly to the internet.

By then you would have racked up thousands of dollars in legal fees. Not to mention if anyone posts anything negative about the current administration you could be used as an example.

We already have students on visas being kidnapped off the streets, let’s stop pretending the law actually matters for the people in power.

Worse, they have been taking after the US and only allowing single family homes and car based infrastructure. They also elect idiots like Doug Ford.

Doug: “I feel so safe on this bike in the city of Toronto”. Also Doug: “my commute is extended a few minutes, fuck the people that actually live in the city, I’ll remove the bike lanes with fake data and by riling up other lazy fucks like myself so I can drive my car from the suburbs into the city quicker”

There is a whole channel “not just bikes” about non car based transportation and public spaces that commonly cites Canada as basically US 2.0 (from a guy that used to live in Canada before, and still has family there).

Can’t be delayed if there is no release date (other than possible 2025). Luckily Nintendo does delay their games when needed.

Rick Bayless on YouTube has this method on a recent video. He adds a little salsa that can taste pretty good. Reminds me of the way we had it where I grew up.
