LilBagOfBunnies,

My little guy is just past 10 and has kidney disease too. Has been given the “hospice” diagnosis twice now and he’s still going.

So so sorry for your loss, I understand how helpless it can feel.

LilBagOfBunnies,

Kutcher and Kunis’ phones ringing off the hook right now.

LilBagOfBunnies,

End of an era. Much love for Martinet and I’m happy Nintendo is still keeping him around in some sort of capacity! Hopefully this was mutual; him being in a video about it with Miyamoto feels like it probably was.

LilBagOfBunnies,

I doubt it will be, but I’m hoping that the parents will be Kitty and Red.

LilBagOfBunnies,

That looks absolutely delicious! I made chicken schnitzel about a month ago; while we were happy with the flavor, the chicken breasts were too thick despite tenderizing them. I’ll have to butterfly them next time, thanks for the explanation!

LilBagOfBunnies,

A buddy of mine loved OW1, ranked top-100 for Rein, and preordered OW2 a long time ago. Not only did Blizz not refund his $60 after they changed directions, he said he still has to pay for this content.

Obviously the main takeaway is another reminder to never preorder games, but that is so slimy.

LilBagOfBunnies,

I wonder if they’ll use this opportunity to sort of “relaunch” the games and include a huge performance patch at release. The DLC was the best part of Sword and Shield, and these look like they could be the same.

It’s also easier for me to get excited because I really didn’t have crazy performance issues. Definitely some bad slowdown in places, Pokemon battles occasionally had some interesting glitches, but I don’t think it ever crashed on me. I played mostly in handheld, so maybe that helped.

LilBagOfBunnies,

For me, the ethical dilemmas affect my enjoyment of games by how involved a scandal/cause of scandal is ingrained into the game. For example, I think Rowling’s views are horrendous and I would absolutely stay away from projects that she has influence in; however, I still picked up Hogwarts Legacy because the studio spoke out against her views, and even included representation in their game for those who she spewed hatred against. The story was almost entirely original, so Rowling’s influence was pretty much restrained to her having created the general world, and some minor character lore. The developers and designers did not cause the hate, so while it sucks some portion of my purchase went to Rowling (even if it was just in a license they paid, the success of the game would likely inspire them to make another, resulting in her getting more cash). It’s difficult to want to punish the teams that built the game when someone who was largely hands-off is the reason it felt a little gross to play.

On the other hand, I’ve avoided High on Life because you need to hear Roiland talk through the majority of the game (until the patch replaces his voice). Squanch Games was owned by him, which means his views are likely reflected in larger portions of the game. I would be constantly reminded of Roiland, and his larger role likely means he profits quite a bit from the game doing well. While it’s certain that Squanch Games has great people working for them that I wouldn’t want to ‘punish’ by their game doing poorly either, it’s just tough for me to separate them. (Also yes I’ve heard Roiland’s charges were dropped, but the judgement was worded in a way that made it clear it was due to lack of damning evidence and not that he was necessarily absolved of accusations).

I agree that it’s important to have discussions about topics and culture that surround projects like this so consumers can be aware of what their cash is supporting. Even though I did feel somewhat guilty buying Hogwarts, I also took the time to give $20 to The Trevor Project in an attempt to offset what Rowling would make from my purchase. Does that make up for it? Who knows.

LilBagOfBunnies,

I feel the same exact way! That’s part of what inspired me to write this - I have a couple of games on my Wii U that I would love to play, but I can’t be bothered to dig it out of a box in the garage, get the chargers charged up, and find a space to plug everything in just to play a game for an hour or two for the nostalgia trip. Fortunately, Dolphin exists!

Thank you for reading!

LilBagOfBunnies,

Damn, that thing looks rad! I hadn’t heard of it before, but I had thought to include a section about modern retro systems like the Analogue Pocket, but it felt a little long when all was said and done. Thank you for sharing the video!

LilBagOfBunnies,

Talk about learning something new, all of that sounds like the best way to move forward with retro games if the budget allows. Even just the simplicity of connecting everything through HDMI would be worth putting together something, at least on a smaller scale.

Thanks for sharing all of that information!

LilBagOfBunnies,

The weirdest thing to me is this looks almost exactly like the Backbone PlayStation edition; if it’s going to simply be remote play on a local handheld, I don’t see why this is a product unless people just want potentially a bigger screen than their phone.

LilBagOfBunnies,

This was happening to me earlier, and logging in with an existing character then logging back out fixed the issue for me.

Sorry it hit you on a great night to play :(

LilBagOfBunnies,

I mostly don’t understand why they made so many different awards. I thought Gold was a cool way of a user supporting Reddit while also showing their gratitude toward another user. After all, users cared about karma even though it didn’t really do anything so an award was just an extra “tip” of appreciation.

It definitely lost its luster to me though once they changed it to awards and it became messy.

LilBagOfBunnies,

I had nearly the same reaction! Assumed it was Lemmy as well but on a specific app. Hopped in the comments to figure out which one to avoid, very relieved it’s one that I’m already not using.

LilBagOfBunnies,

What’s the app that appears to be an Instagram replacement?

LilBagOfBunnies,

Unfortunately, the PlayStation One was discontinued by Sony in 2006, the same year they released the PlayStation 3. While a standard consumer could be recommended to simply upgrade to a more modern system like even the PlayStation 4, having PS1 consoles for feet may impact your ability to upgrade - especially if you’re located in the US where healthcare can be difficult to come by.

Maybe take a look at the PlayStation Classic Sony released a few years back. However, it’s important to note that it is a mini console, so the size will be smaller than what you’re used to and may not be as comfortable. They may work as a stop-gap while you scour eBay or other online markets for a quality refurbish job; maybe aim to find some released closer to the last run in 2006 for longevity purposes.

Good luck!

LilBagOfBunnies,

It's so nice to see some subreddits sticking to their guns and ideals and push through until real change happens! r/Nintendo is still down too, which was a nice surprise when I was looking around to see the state of my subs on Reddit.
