  The important data I’d want out of this is how much money went down if younger kids couldn’t get addicted.

  Just to see how much they could bank off of giving kids addictive personalities for the future.

  Since I bring mine to libraries and gatherings, I use it like a Switch to plug into big TVs and four controllers. Thankfully it’s all still cheaper than the good stuff for a Switch 👍

  Plus accessories

  Ha. I remember around the 00’s the Best Buy website had increased prices if you went to the site while in the store. Checking the site from home had lower prices to compete with online stores.

  In the future I predict it will add a “share” button. And the more engagement you get on social media is how you can earn discounts and stuff.

  It was tricky to find actual numbers so correct me if I am wrong, but if you look at the entire lifetime net profit (not revenue) of Elden Ring since it’s launch, it appears that Dragon Ball Bokken made all of Elden Ring’s profit in just 2024 alone.

  When you read Bandai’s financial reports they always open with their mobile games, with From Software titles getting an “honorable mention” at the end.

  A better way to put it is story driven games sell. Mobile and MTX games sell better.

  I’ll miss my download of Lost Cities and Lode Runner 3D

  The thing is it seemed like Sakurai wants to do other things, but has no choice but to work on smash 28/9.

  From what I understand in television writing it was a constant struggle of “should we write a cliffhanger hoping it gets us renewed” to “we should have some closure in case we get cancelled”, since many writers had no idea what would happen.

  Sakurai and Hayo Miyazaki drunk betting who will retire first

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Divinity Original Sins 2: An unbelievably awesome game⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the only dumb reason I stopped playing after 25 hours was just not having a convenient storage chest as I tend to be a hoarder in games.

  I even went as far as figuring out how to make a mod to improve the storage chest.

  My thought was to see if I could edit the ship’s chest to show a bigger screen of items and have either tabs or separaters for the name type.
