it's a paradox

Democrats becoming just as bad as Republicans isn't going to solve anything (and most rational people are already sick of this 'both sides' shit)

yet, Democrats taking the high road hasn't really gotten them anywhere either

Probably some guy in the American company was named Wally and didn't want his name to be a punchline.

the guy from Dilbert strikes again

you got me with the Waldo/Wally thing though

maybe they thought Wally is more endearing to kids?

Because there's barely black main characters to adapt and usually their race is a big part of the story.

the Clue thing is because it was based off a pre-existing game called "Ludo" that's largely unknown in the US, so the name was changed

Yeah it set a great tone in the beginning lol

not to mention it being rather cathartic in retrospect...

They already made him right-handed, when he's been left-handed since the very beginning.
At least it made sense for Skyward Sword, what with the 1:1 motion controls and all. Link being right-handed in Breath of the Wild was purely a stylistic decision.

I would imagine civil war would have been the inevitable outcome

I'm pretty sure we're heading for another Civil War within the next 10 years no matter what

I still can't get over both how horrible Jan 6 was and yet how much of a fucking joke it was, too.

Like, what if a mass murder of US politicians had taken place rather than some dipshit stealing a podium looking like he just won an Academy Award? It's crazy

Much of this issue could be resolved simply by making older games public domain.

But that'll never happen.

---

Nobody? I guess everyone likes paying third-party sellers through the nose for older games and hardware. Or paying the developers full price for pointless remakes of games that were just fine before.

Gaming is weird like that.

---

as a result, this is an issue that people outside the industry have taken into their own hands to try and remedy, which yet again I must remind you is technically illegal

---

this is a problem that's unique to gaming, as well

it's not like you need specific hardware to read a book or watch a movie

---

There has to be a reliable way to play older games in their original forms without resorting to either ROM piracy or spending tons of money on out-of-print games that only run on older, failing hardware.

This is an issue that the gaming industry as a whole has never tried to address in any serious manner, other than maybe the occasional game compilation.

Nintendo is just about the only publisher who's made an attempt at preserving older games, but even their methods have been flawed. The Virtual Console only goes so far, and even then the games aren't always unedited in some manner. There's also stuff like the NES/SNES Classic but that's basically the same deal as other compilations and are hardly all-encompassing (outside of adding more ROMS, which again is technically piracy).

here's hoping it fares better than the animated series that came out a while ago

at least, I think there was one. it didn't last long

whatever, the N64 version is good enough

we also need to stop buying the same games over and over, it's getting ridiculous

I mean, from a business and marketing perspective you can't make your product too good or else people won't use anything else

because otherwise people wouldn't bother upgrading, or buying replacements

I can't think like that. Otherwise that means I wasted my money. I wanted MP4 and Bayonetta 3 and aside from them saying MP4 was restarted with Retro doing it, we haven't heard shit.

or, you know, you could just try out some other games? the Switch has a pretty decent library, believe it or not

buying a console for several hundred bucks just to play one game that isn't even out yet is rather moronic

Development Hell is a bitch

I'm starting to think MP4 won't ever come out, or if it does it won't be very good at all

haha nope. i remember it being very close like only having one energy tank left, but generally speaking you can dodge everything besides his BS boosts throughout the arena. and then you're given a lot of health.

i died a lot as a kid but eh...it's not as bad as people chalk it up to be

but seriously though, at that point in the game you have maybe 4 energy tanks and it does like 60 damage per hit

i was fucking shaking by the time I finally managed to beat it

has in itself become cliche?

I mean come on, writers. Having your characters sarcastically quip that this sort of thing has been done a gajillion times before doesn't automatically make it funny or clever. It's getting kind of tired, actually.
