That was the last console that was worth it. After that it was all downhill (Wii U was unfortunate).

The Wii, the Nintendo 64, the PS1 and Genesis was everything I needed. Even has an old NES.

If buying doesn't result in owning, then piracy isn't a kind of theft. I can't own it, so neither can you, and so preventing someone else from owning a thing when it's impossible to own, is the sound of one hand clapping. It's an impossible idea. I can't own it, and so it it impossible to steal something that cannot be owned anyway.

The plan is to eventually have - and this is 15-20 years down the line, mind you - your ability to run practical software (work), run games (entertainment), surf the internet (information) and more, tied to YOU, your biometric ID.
If you do not comply and conform or at least pretend to, it can impact your ability to access the internet, your software, the whole cloud. Basically if you "wrongthink" or express behavior or do a thing that is "no no", you're out of a job, you won't be able to access almost anything, for everything that can be, will be tied to this cloud. And it will be marketed as a glorious futuristic convenience.

All of you are going to fold under this "soft pressure" power. Therefore I invite you to sabotage the construction of datacenters, destroy those already in place and so on and so forth.

This is the last knot on the noose before the chair is pulled away.

Rising up is going against someone. And to go against someone, you must consider their strengths, weaknesses, traits, assets. Having considered that you can come up with targets. These targets you can...target.
Destroy or sabotage datacenters, and you effectively harm all those who would use it against you while costing them very dearly.

Haha no way jose , Gamers are never going to hire a subpar laggy expensive service

I can find hardware in the trash that is years beyond 2nd gen intel (ie i5 2500k) that can emulate everything on or before ps1-2. Broke and poor gamers will simply do more with less with used hardware.. Otherwise who is going to purchase these expensive games if there is no one left to play them? Besides piracy exploding again perhaps arcade centers will make a roaring come back with cheap Oday games and the cycle will repeat itself again like the crash and rebirth of gaming in the late 70s early 80s

Does the frog grow wise to the gradual boil?
The ability to think has been eroded. And that is really all that is needed aside from keeping the rollout slow and without too much controversy or friction.

I don't want the filthy kike and spiritual kike to reach its goals, but it looks like people are just going to let it happen, all the while they shake their fists and impotently screech "gas the kike." For again, they can no longer think.

They don't even fucking work because Unreal is so bad. You could have 64 gigs of VRAM and Unreal will force you to downgrade to 800 by 600 pixels lol

You repeat the mantra ironically, but the irony lies in how that irony only works to make you accept it, unironically.

Kikes have no endgame any more, just a lot of little pathetic squabbles. Whatever big retarded dream you thought you had has gone up in smoke.

Odd projection, kind of sad too. But the dangerous thing is that you simply do not undertand or know your enemy anymore. It might also be that you're fucking retarded, one of the two. Who cares, you're not going to do anything productive anyway.

That's kikes all right. They think white men are animals without brains, when they're the 90 IQs following their blood drinking rabbis. Whatever demon was protecting them is going to rip up the contract himself lol

my research leads me to believe that the actual masons grossly mismanaged the populus in 15th 16th and 17th century, gradually diminishing the amount of bright heads, maybe even the overall quality of human avatars to host some competent souls. many projects seemed to have failed, they grasping at straws already in the 18th century and now only screeching and lamenting ye olde tymes and, hoping+coping for the best seems to be left.
indeed some may have done a bright prognosis that mammon has lost the battle already against michael, but its gonna take at least i feel 150 years for this to literally materialise in 3D. until then the coal and steel prison will be finished. and then there wont be a reason for monetary objects anyway.

the moment usa mericans lose their 2A, it is unironicly over for this entire planet.

Modern business is how to get people to get your subscription service and forget about it, the product doesn't actually matter. Progressive retreat into their castles of monopoly money as their actual product floor is bombed out. They have nothing, will they all collapse? Hopefully

Things are going to improve for Germany, simply because you're almost at rock bottom. America will get there soon too. Freemasons peaked, let's say, in 1911, though it was probably earlier. The Great (Anal) Work is gone on permanent hiatus.

>Will gamers embrace ad-based cloud gaming after being priced out of owning hardware?

As much as I want to own my hardware, software and media, it's a losing battle.
We already lost the music and video battles and the only way to "reasonably own" these media is to pirate it nowadays, otherwise you're stuck with streaming or shitty offline alternatives for most part.
It's really only a matter of time until gaming gets its turn at the chopping block and most people will take it in the ass like good goys.
And gaming is just the beginning. All virtually all proprietary software will eventually be moved to the cloud.

>>537082227
Physical media has been a complete obsolete technology for about a decade. Even the new Switch 2 game cartridges don't actually have the game in them, they just hold a download link and license to play the game if the cartridge is inserted into your Switch.
>>
>>537082100
At some point they'll simply stop releasing games on non-cloud platforms. Game dev studios will fall in line.
>>
>>537098033
They killed physical so they could make more money on digital. The switch to digital in 2014 was a 100% increase in profits but none of the games got better. They're just milking the industry. Consoles themselves like Xbox and PlayStation were only ever corporate memes culminating in Kinect because wii sold a lot because it told boomers they could play golf

pretty soon they will put a chip in your balls, and you'll have to pay for the upgrade when you want to shoot a load.

Lots of fabulous games are released for free now on Steam, by solo devs. White men are getting surgically removed from the economy; we're all going to have a lot of time on our hands.

>why would it succeed now?
Because the hardware keeps getting more expensive at the same time streaming gets better. You can pay $1500 for a new GPU or $20/mo to game on the same card via streaming. The card will be obsolete and outdated long before you reach the break even point where buying the card is the better deal.
There is also almost 2 whole generations of gamers who primarily played mobile games on phones and tablets. Many of them have never owned an actual PC much less a full blown gaming PC.
>the latency is shit
Most gaymers aren't sweaty CODslop try hards who actually need isanely low latency. Most normal people don't even notice any latency difference.
>the bandwidth just doesnt exist for this scale.
No one in 2026 stuggles with having enough bandwidth to stream 1080 or 4k video, 1080 or 4k game streaming doesn't need anymore DL bandwidth than watching Netflix or whatever, and just a minimal amount of additional upstream bandwidth for control inputs

I'm still using my 1080 because I don't buy garbage triple gay crap. Indie games have been better for almost 15 years at this point, you have no one to blame but yourself.

Gog.com is not closing and piracy is only growing more sophisticated and lower-risk.

>>537082100
lmao, expensive bread and circuses. Indie devs make better games and don't need absurd specs for their games to run. And if you were concerned about storage space, well, old school games are tiny in size so they can weather the storm of high memory costs. What the fuck are they getting at? These corpos are raping the planet more than providing anything worth buying.

I have chortles.

>paywalls and infinite subscriptions at $300/USD a month.
Why people are paying absurds prices to play low quality games?
