Looking alright. It’s a Pokémon game so I know what I’m getting into but it looks fun.

Hooray, new DRM?

smeg,

Sounds like it’s no more DRM than the limits of a physical cartridge, right?

You have to authenticate online on both ends, and it maxes out at two weeks, so no.

redy_velvet,

The two weeks are only for sharing across accounts in a family, if you’re using the same account across two devices there isn’t a time limit. You could already play your games on both but before the secondary device needed to connect to the Internet every time you launched the game, and now it’s just when loading.

Hey, I’m sure it solves a problem for people, but the easier solution is still just the absence of DRM, as much as Nintendo would not like to do it, and it introduces exactly the kind of complexity that Sony mocked 12 years ago.

I never cared for game informer. It always felt like GameStop was trying to shill it in order to sell subscriptions to a magazine that’s basically a giant advertisement for GameStop.

Gimme those cooler magazines. Game Pro, Nintendo Power, PSM etc.

philycheeze,

Game Informer always felt like the cheap knockoff to Electronic Gaming Monthly.

catloaf,

Most magazines are just ads.

wisemanzero,

Next Generation was always my bag.

I understand what you’re saying about Game Informer, but it’s hilarious you name Nintendo Power and PSM as alternatives, considering that.

altima_neo,
@altima_neo@lemmy.zip avatar

Yeah but all least they weren’t being forced on you

Lightor,

You don’t want a magazine that’s adverts but you like Nintendo Power and PSM…

altima_neo,
@altima_neo@lemmy.zip avatar

Those were the best ads tho. Game informer was just a GameStop ad. And GameStop always made me feel bad.

Lightor,

So you like ads, just not GameStop ads? I mean, GI had a lot of info about games, too. Beyond Nintendo and PS, you could actually learn about PC games.

The ads and capitalism is going to be unreal it just as bad as everyone else.

People are into vinyl and tube TVs again. Barnes & Noble just opened a huge branch in a hot (meaning: expensive) neighborhood here in Chicago. I guess people like physical things again.

SatanClaus,

I see it in a different light. The people that were raised on digital goods finally have the money to purchase physical goods.

mesamunefire,

Might be both. I know a couple of 20s that love physical media. Its crazy to think about, but they stated their childhood was mostly screens and rectangles. They both like Vinyl which is crazy to me. They are working their first jobs too.

Just enough money to buy some physical goods, but not enough to buy so many that storage becomes a problem…

darkkite,

i have the money but not the space. i used to have a subscription back in ps2-ps3 gen but the world has changed. now i just follow a few people on youtube, pateron and use sites like this or reddit for news.

PacMan,

I think people are catching on to these digital services can remove things you bought or they even fold. You own a physical item it is yours to do as you please with it

Andonyx,

Damn, can we escape the encroaching hellscape by transporting everyone back to 1998? 🫰

Lost_My_Mind,

Yes please. To quote time traveling reporter Ryan George “PLEASE bring me back to the 90s! The future is dumb, and nothing makes sense, and I hate it!”

They could make good money on the nostalgia crowd with reprints.

I’d love a print of the advertising and coverage for Morrowind.

VitoRobles,

I’ve been getting a major kick out of the retro games community!

They’re reviewing old games, reviewing new games that look/act retro, interviewing designers of old games. It’s glorious.
