Is this why all their stuff is on sale? They’re clearing stock?

If all of its games were available elsewhere, there would be a lot less switch users

zecg, 5 miesięcy temu do games w Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2?

Within an enthusiast bubble, PC handhelds are a big deal, but they do not exist in the same universe as Nintendo consoles.

I keep hearing this shit and it seems like stupid wishful thinking, because in a locked-down universe where Switch 2 is not a shitty proposition for way too much cash compared to getting a PC with 10k+ PC games from the get go and also emulating anything you wish because it’s your hardware and it’s just bits - in that universe, Polygon is a much needed pool of experts that people go to for advice instead of a source of stupid ragebait titles telling them a log of shit is the new snickers.

Nintendo will not have true competition in handhelds until its peers in the console space get involved.

Yeah, sure, fuck you Polygon

I was kinda hoping for a smaller console, not a larger one.

Huh, so now it’s the verge, but less unique and creative. Not to disparage anyone doing redesigns, it’s a valiant effort.

Eggyhead, rok temu do gaming w New Nintendo Switch accessory might confirm some leaked details about Switch 2

I’m surprised at how little I am actually interested in the switch 2 but for the prospect of more Metroid prime and Zelda.

I wonder if this was the reason for my dislike of the costumes in one of the marvel Thor movies. Just remember them looking like a cheap cos player outfit made from plastic.

Dagwood222, rok temu do scifi w The dirty secret to making sci-fi believable

I remember an old Superman comic. Trapped under a red sun, Supes is powerless, but his Kryptonian supersuit is still indestructible. Supes is bruised and battered but his clothes stay immaculate.

[iirc, the supersuit is made of Kryptonian tech and was originally blankets used to swaddle in infant Kal-El]

TheBananaKing, rok temu do scifi w Sting is my favorite part of David Lynch’s Dune

I really liked all the Lynch harkonnens - they were just sleazy and degraded by power: not terrifying supervillians, but the Trump family.

Like, they were still a major problem, but because privilege, not any kind of badassery.

I think that’s an aspect that was missed in the Villeneuve dune, along with making Paul too pretty and heroic.

1984 Paul was a sour unlikelable dick, and that was kind of the point for me.

mipadaitu, rok temu do scifi w Sting is my favorite part of David Lynch’s Dune

That’s true, Sting is my favorite part of DL’s dune. He played Feyd-Rautha so well.

Also, Patrick Stuart is my favorite part of dune. He was an excellent Halleck.

Kyle McLaughlin though… He was my favorite part of dune, such an outstanding Paul. Always felt a little mature for the role, but he did an amazing job none the less.

That and Alecia Witt… Man, that creepy little girl, and the oddly mismatching voice… My favorite part for sure.

Dean Stockwell…

I’m assuming people who already bought the game can still play it?

SolOrion, rok temu

It’s still in my Steam library. I’m not sure whether it runs, but I can’t imagine it wouldn’t.

MrScottyTay, rok temu

They should be able to. These things usually only take them down from sale.

astrsk, rok temu

Can confirm, was able to download it after it was pulled and it runs fine.

shani66, rok temu do gaming w Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent

I’d be incredibly happy if that were true, but it isn’t. We’ve had proper Pokemon alternatives since before Pokemon even existed and they haven’t slowed that shitty franchise one bit. Megaten is still niche, Digimon is still niche, cassette beasts (the actual goty) has an even smaller audience than those games, if this was major discontent with Pokemon cassette beasts at least would be in a much better place (since it literally released last year, perfect to take advantage of Pokemon’s unending failures). Gotta nip that unwarranted optimism in the bud, gamefreak sucks and will never improve, their fans suck and will never improve.
