Its a real shame. The part with his brother is, in my opinion, the worst part of the show. It gets better and better.
Not to say its a bad part, i liked it. Its just that it gets better and better as the show goes on, and the ending is great.
I dont k ow if you watched it when it was new, but today it’s not very funny. In the 90s, it was funny, but comedy has changed a lot since then, and some of the show is not very “woke” if you will excuse the term.
I think there are still funny and quotable moments but i dont think any of it would resonate with a younger audience. Comedy today is so much better and different to then. And a lot of shows that have come along since friends have used plots and jokes from the show and done them to death so it seems unoriginal and derivative.
I think this is all true of a lot of old shows. Tv is just a different beast now.
Yeah, last season was so boring and unsatisfying.
There were so many ways that show could have gone which would have been good.
Instructions unclear… Bank account exploded… money everywhere…
Absolutely fair. An 8 year old game should not cost $90 all in.
I dont dispute that. I just think the article is misleading as there is a lot of talk about $90 switch 2 games, which turned out not to be true, and it creates anger that is misplaced. Even if the reality isn’t far from that lie.
I do, however, think it’s an interesting thought experiment to come at it from another angle.
Imagine the article was “8 year old AAA game and DLC at a huge discount” and the article said things like:
From this point of view i think you would agree that anyone would argue its worth more than $50 and that its a great deal despite being 8 years old.
Nintendo games should definitely come down in price over time, but the point is its just so easy to spin something however you want if you use the right words.
Title is a bit misleading
There are a few scenarios here.
You own the game on switch and already have the dlc so pay nothing unless you want to pay $10 or have the switch online subscription for the switch 2 edition if you want the enhancements. For a total of $0-10 depending on your choice
You own the game but dont have the dlc so pay $20 for that and then $10 for the switch 2 version unless you have the subscription for a total of $20-30 depending on your choice.
You dont own the game so you buy the switch 2 version for $70 and the dlc for $20 for a total of $90.
This is not the same as the $90 game lie thats being told, but it is painted that way. To get clicks.
Paying $70 for a game and then paying more for an expansion is nothing even close to new. For example, Destiny 2 is free but if you want the DLC its gonna cost you between $150 and $270 depending on when you buy it as there are sometimes deals on.
Feel the rhythm all alone.
Dude, im not fighting you on this. Why are you being standoffish?
I agreed with you that it’s too pricey.
All i said against you is that 80 dollars, so far, applies to one game, mario kart, other games are cheaper.
The prices are on nintendos website. Look them up.
So yeah… facts. The ones on nintendos website.
Did you even look up the prices at retailers? Because it’s even cheaper there.
The misinformation is the 80 dollars minimum which you corrected from 90 dollars and still got wrong. Thats misinformation as there are already games available for pre order that cost less than that.
The rage? I mean you are arguing with me instead lf discussing, all of my replies to you so far have been in the spirit of debate. I dont like nintendo. They are a greedy company and they exploit nostalgia and have been milking their very popular forst party games for too long, and it keeps working, which is infuriating. But it doesnt change the fact that you are either lying or misinformed about the current pricing situation.
So yeah. I stand by what i said and i think you should reign it in a bit and lets just have a conversation.
80 dollars isn’t even the minimum. Donkey Kong is cheaper than that. It’s on nintendos’ official website.
Yes, 80 dollars is a lot and, in my opinion, too much for games.
It doesn’t matter. I just think it’s important to get the facts before forming an opinion.
You are only adding to the rage with misinformation.
I accept if you say you aren’t mad. But you are clearly not happy with the prices if you are commenting here with the message you sent. So i am saying just get the numbers right before posting.
That’s totally fair. I, like many, have watched in horror as games get more and more expensive. I dont buy that many anymore either. I dont have as much time to play as i used to.
If i am being fair, though, the scope of games has changed significantly since the early days of gaming in terms of hours of content and quality of graphics and what they can do. Storylines, cinematics, everything has been slowly becoming bigger since the days of playing streets of rage on a sega genesis and completing it in a few hours. With 3 characters to pick from and a limited set of moves with enemies that get more health, they hit harder but are just a reskin of a previous enemy.
I dont think 70 or 80 dollars is a good price. It’s too expensive. But i also dont think games should be 30 or 40 dollars brand new.
But in saying that. There were games back then that cost more than 80 dollars. And n64 games used to cost in the 60 dollar region when they were new. Same with ps1 games. I think over 20 to 30 years for the price of games to have risen by between 10 and 30 dollars is not that crazy, even if they are too expensive now. 60 dollars was a lot more in the 90s than it is today.
The original ps1 would cost almost 800 dollars in todays money.
Overall i think nintendo are greedy and they go to far with raising the prices. I just think everyone pointing at nintendo need to remember that its the industry as a whole that has raised prices to where they are, not just nintendo.
If we are being real you could look up the preorder prices of the games and see that 80 dollars is the maximum.
I can’t speak for the US but in the EU, some retailers are ignoring the RRP nintendo set and selling games way cheaper.
Even in the UK, where this isn’t the case, I am seeing £75 for mario kart. Only £5 more than most games cost these days.
Also £65 for donkey kong which is £5 less than standard.
I appreciate that nintendo games dont tend to drop in cost over time and perhaps like many others you would prefer to try to justify piracy (to be clear, and fair, i have pirated games,tv and movies of the years, but dont tend to do it much these days) then by all means, dont by these games, dont by the switch 2. But dont lie about what it is and what it costs just to be part of the rage.
I find it so strange that the people who pirate games are getting mad about the cost of games they are going to pirate anyway. I am not saying thats you, because i dont know you, but a lot of this rage comes from people who were never going to pay for it in the first place. Its baffling.
But anyway, the point is, if you are going to be mad at it, then at least be mad at what it actually is, yeah?
I think i might have this, too! Is it like a static feeling? Like o old CRT screens?
I would rock the wood block! 🤘
I can count almost perfect seconds. Most people think they can count seconds until they try to prove it.
Like, give me a stopwatch. I can count seconds to within an average of .05 of a second.
I can do this consistently over a long period of time, i gave up counting when i tested it.
It’s because i used to have 3 clocks in my living room, and they all used to tick at different times. I guess from when the battery was connected and it would create all these different rhythms.
After many years of hearing these rhythms and noticing the different rhythms that would be made as we changed the batteries over time, i ended up being able to tap the rhythm out on a table/in my head etc and now its just ingrained into my head.
taTA ta… taTA ta… taTA ta…
Absolutely useless.
Hey, yeah, of course. I was joking. It wasn’t obvious. I see that reading it back.
You could try starting with some cable management and then maybe move on to more cable management.
Seriously, at the very least why arent these cables behind your shelving instead of draping over the front edge? Thats crazy. Then you have a pc in the middle with cables going both ways. Is that a LAN cable coming from the right? Drill a hole and run that through the wall and either run it along your skirting board or get some trunking.
You can even remove the skirting, cut away a small section from the bottom back corner of the skirt to create a channel for the cable.
If i was you i would reorganize all of the devices, run all the cables in the same direction and as shown in another comment run them down the leg of the shelf and then across to the tv. And move the PC to the shelf. (Maybe the side of the shelf)
If a woman i wanted to date didn’t find me funny when i do goofy shit, then she would quickly become a woman i dont want to date.
I can be immature without that being my whole personality. I am mature when it’s appropriate and immature when it’s appropriate.
Just be yourself. You dont want to lock it all away to be in a relationship with someone who can’t laugh at a well-timed fart.
I liked up to the end of the season with the time travel where they all jumped to different times a few years apart. Think it was season 2. After that, i just didn’t feel the show was coherent or interesting.
