SMG2 is probably the best 3D Mario game, but since I already own them I’ll just keep what I have.
Dolphin can play them both just fine. If it’s anything like the last pack, it’ll be the laziest possible emulation anyway. This shit should have been in the NSO subscription if they’re not actually going to remake it.
they didn’t include galaxy 2 in 3d all stars to make the suckers double dip 5 years later lol
anyways, if anyone here has decompilation knowledge and wants to help, the original mario galaxy has a decomp project and they have 21% of the code decompiled!
I thought it played nicely. It’s not a very difficult game anyway. Although there are some mechanics not possible with the switch controllers. Like the analog triggers with the click in the bottom that the GameCube controller had. That was so useful in so many games. Not sure why they got rid of that ever since.
What threw me about the remake too is that a lot of the FLUDD mechanics are more annoying when you can’t partially press the trigger. It felt like it made more sense when you could “regulate” the flow with how strongly you pushed, but triggers on Switch controllers are only off/on.
My conclusion is that the US is getting what it wants out of the importation block regardless of smuggling or “fell of the assembly line”.
Universities (China and the US) want a warranty on that hardware. They can’t get a warranty on smuggled hardware. That’s where you would have researchers building models. The GPUs they have are getting old and they don’t have replacements lined up.
The other place to build models is corporations, who might choose to ignore the warranty issue, but they can’t possibly get enough high end GPUs to actually do that. Not while using mules who can only bring in one or two at a time. Maybe they can find a way to smuggle things en masse, but they’d likely just make themselves a target to US trade authorities.
That leaves Chinese gamers as the only ones who want smuggled GPUs at all. US trade policy doesn’t give a shit about them.
So yes, there’s smuggling, Nvidia certainly knows about it, US trade authorities certainly know about it, but nobody has any reason to care.
I don't understand why people have issues with shows like this, it's not like ads on annoying news websites, people want to watch them, I'm not watching but I think it's quite exciting waiting for a trailer you want to see (silksong for example) compared to seeing it in a news article afterwards.
Really fun watch. I probably am more aware of this than most so most of the contextual information was “common sense” or “open secrets”, but never really saw anyone put it that clearly or blatantly before. And the technical segments (building a frankenboard) were awesome.
Although one thing me and a few buddies keep wondering but are too afraid to ask legal about: Did Steve actually film himself committing a crime when he bought the card? Like, he as a US citizen is a party that can buy one of those and as long as he didn’t give it to anyone else, it is no different than buying and shipping a card from a less than reputable source. But it also raises every single export control flag in my head.
I watched it the first time. Too long. Pretty boring. Great that he made it for people who need evidence that Nvidia was smuggling GPUs. I kinda just assumed that’s what was happening. You’d have to be naive not to.
Dude stop. There’s no ethical consumption in post-/late stage capitalism. Nintendo is no worse than Microsoft, Sony, Steam, I could go on and on. Let people play their fucking video games—it’s one of the only nice things about living in this modern day. Fucking sheesh.
"There's no ethical consumption" doesn't mean prostrating yourself at the altar of an international company that sends lawyers to people's houses for writing emulators, lmao. Play your video games, but fawning over Nintendo Directs like they're your Sunday morning sermon is weird.
Hey man if you enjoy being ripped off and shilling for a trash company that sues everyone and their mom for making a cookie in the shape of mario, then maybe you ought to log off as well. Maybe get some perspective and evalute some life choices.
You are calling me the "dumbass", here? 😅 Both logic and philosophy say this perspective is wrong, and also, funnily enough, if this were true (as in, it's not possible to proof a negative assertion in a burden-of-proof scenario) then that very claim could not be proven either? Because "You cannot prove a negative" is, in itself, a negative assertion.
Luckily for us this is of course wrong, and you can prove a negative. Especially in matters of fact, since you could find a list of current filings of Microsoft and hence show that no, of all their ongoing lawsuits, there are none that are targetting developers (which is not the case, it was easy enough to find two cases without digging any deeper).
And I mean, this doesn't do shit to exhonorate Nintendo here, but let's not pretend Microsoft and Sony aren't constantly running hundreds of legal cases and multiple will be targetting developers of all sizes. They're just avoiding big press about most of them.
You can just admit you were wrong, you know? Both about current legal cases and about how how proofs of negative claims are viewed in mathmatics particularly logic, and in philosophy. That's okay. Sometimes we are wrong, and we learn from accepting that.
I don't disagree Nintendo is a shithole company, after all. Just take it as a learning experience: More than one company can be shite at the same time.
Nintendo is suing Palworld over patents they filed AFTER Palworld released, and said patents are so broad that many other games also technically violate said bullshit patents. Nintendo is the one in the wrong.
