This place has slowly degraded into a mental asylum for 14 year olds and manchildren stewing in their own antisocial behavior (pedophilia, bigotry, violent bursts of rage, etc.) over the course of a decade.

It's kind of funny how it's mostly hardcore leftists doing it. They banned insulting ppl's race, gender, sexuality, disabilities etc so best that is left for them is using "poor" as an insult. Except when it's against them, then it's "material disability" or some shit.

You do know the choices you've made on your devices have led the algorithm to serve you content that suits your interests? You're seeing all that noise, as the filter's only SHOWING you that noise. You know what you're not seeing? The people who don't need to justify their spending of $20 to anybody. Who bought the games and are waiting for friday to play them, maybe even waiting on the presents video too. the vast anount of people who've gotten a Switch and have decided to pull the trigger, or who are currently being marketed to (FRLG are currently in the featured news tab when waking Switch/S2) who'll end up grabbing it on release.

Still no debate, the one /vp/ hates the most from first reveal is going to be the shillmon of the three, just like the last 10 years of new Gen reveals.
>>

Have some fucking standard, first
Jesus fucking Christ do you not even realize that by allowing this shit to slide, you are setting a precedent for Nintendo to add more games to the various console libraries but add a price tag to them?
Holy fucknuts please see this as what it actually is: a test of your fucking willpower to not spend money on this shit and validate Nintendo's investors.

Every degen here wanted to fuck the cat and it became the most popular by far
>>
>>58960176
No, because most rights owners who did old games for Nintendo systems will bundle their shit up to get actual sales interest (that megaman box set), Nintendo will continue putting their shit on NSO (it's part of the selling point of the online sub) and likely only Pokémon will sell their older shit on eShop as all of Nintendo Game Freak and Creatures profit from that. No other series is big enough to warrant trying what Pokémon's doing and Nintendo aren't going to arbitrarily sell old games as that will eventually diminish the point of NSO from a consumer point of view (you might not like their practices fully, but they do at least claim to consider their users when making such choices and adding old games as a bonus for an online sub is better than how they forced fans to pay over and over on past systems for old games and if someone's getting the online anyway, may as well sweeten it, regardless how much the individual actually interacts with it).

Incineroar was when the starters leaked though.
>>58960197
And they pivoted HARD to Primarina when it turned out the cat turned into a furry man, while Popp turned into a decidedly feminine seal, complete with body detailing aping a low-cut evening dress to compliment the (female) vocalist theme. Hell, I had an unbroken streak of picking Fire types up to 7, because I went cumskull over my choice (though I'll admit Delphox turning out to be the Fire type and ALSO cumskull option in 6 pleased me internally). But I didn't hate 'Roar, I just wanted to fuck the seal (picked it for a sidefile run). /vp/ hated it though and it ended up the shillmon. Ditto the bunny, because merkins couldn't wrap their heads around people maybe liking it due to also liking football as a sport (or spergs in general misunderstanding the attraction of it to non-internet shut-ins). They despised the cat and doubly so when it stood up and got sexy and everything about Gen 7 was about her, so. Whatever starter /vp/ hates the most closest to launch will be the winner pick, in regards to picking something that the franchise will anoint as "the" pick of the Gen.

>>58960252
The one the place hates the most with no true leaks then. We didn't get leaks for 8 or 9, yet we ended up with shillmon /vp/ hated. We DID get leaks for 7 and that swayed the system seemingly as /vp/ hated that shillmon and all.
>>
>>58960263
Because then they'd be expected to PAY for the old games to play them on switch and they'd never ever be free.This is of course ignoring if they were ever going to be added for free, as that would absolutely guarantee an uptake of NSO subs, they'd already have been done so and would have been heavily marketed to drive sub uptake already.
>>
>>58960289
>if we don't give them money they'll have no choice but to make these games free
That's not how it works
>>
>>58960321
But that seems to be the hope or pervading mentality. "why isn't it on NSO, what am I paying for THAT for, reee". Ignoring they obviously play online in some capacity and NSO is primarily a "let me play online" fee. And again, getting pissy other people ARE paying for it, while they scream "p-pirate it", "nooooo" and other worthless venting of feefees because the thing isn;t actually catering to their estimation of what "real" fans are.

I got some retarded family who don't understand tech or emulation or anything along the lines. Most kids today don't know how to do much more than press the button to make the app show up.
So 20 bucks for a game they will play for a bit enjoy some nostalgia and not think of again is about the price of a mcdonalds run.

I'm not going to bother teaching a 10 year old or a 40 year old tech illiterate person how to emulate. I tried making a handheld for them with all the retro shit but they didn't understand.

I just wish we got something like. "Classic bundle" with all the preDS games in it.
But knowing nintendo it would be keycard only

I don’t understand how people consider this to be a decent argument, it’s obvious that those who won’t pay the $20 have ample money to do so but consider it not worth their money, while the actual poor people are the ones throwing money at everything while criticizing others for not being blind consumers like them. It’s pretty sad.

The same applies to casting judgement onto others for how they spend their money. Nobody can stop either. Also "niggers" are the ones who are most likely to spout the rhetoric of "don't tell other people how to spend their money". You should judge how other people spend their money because how other people spend their money is how civilization works. Without other people spending their money we wouldn't be able to have this conversation right now.
