I’d say up, because it’s worth bringing attention to, even when it’s bad news.

Last time they tried future warfare, the fans revolted because it was “too futuristic”. They’ve been stuck in a loop of WWII/Cold War/modern day for a decade now.

Not of that leaker is shilling their own cryptocurrency.

I just realized that’s probably a nod to Zelda 1, where they also split the triforce into 8 pieces.

Now we can all be Psycho Mantis.

Kingdoms of the Dump got overshadowed in last year’s holiday rush. 93% positive audience score.

Yes, unfortunately it has to be done each time. Annoyingly it doesn’t work as it’s being taken off the dock, so I have to turn it back off then hold B and turn on again.

I’ve been lucky that Steam maps the controller to just about everything I play. I see where switching modes all the time would get irritating quickly.

I have the same controller. With newer firmware, if you hold B while turning it on, it starts in D-Input mode instead of X-Input or Switch. That should enable analog triggers and gyro at the same time.

Also that one Shredder flight in TMNT4 where you throw enemies at the screen.

This image keeps crashing my phone’s browser from the sheer size, which just makes your point even funnier.

There’s one called simply Pokemon Blue - 151.

A few years ago when I tried switching, this drove me nuts. It’s so unintuitive coming from Windows where I use middle mouse all the time in browsers.

Yeah, the second game already had that problem. It was right in the era when everyone thought they needed to copy the quippy, irreverent dialogue from Marvel without understanding why it worked or when not to use it.

The new powers and mobility changes sound good, at least.

Their source is this page on the Video Game Sales Wiki, which does say “The following titles are the best-selling games released in the 2020s, as of 2025.”. That’s how I read the headline, but you’re right, it would have helped if Visual Capitalist had clarified by including that bit of info.

Yeah, that’s usually the term. Also, it doesn’t see much action, but: [email protected]

I still have my doubts that was the majority of the issue, at least the first time they “won” that award in 2012. That poll happened 1 month after Mass Effect 3’s release, when emotions were still raw over people’s disappointment with the game’s ending. That’s not to defend those who were voting for EA over, say, Nestle or any number of other awful companies. But most of what I saw was immature lashing out to punish anyone perceived as responsible for the writing. I remember people cheering they’d managed to harass EA’s tech support Twitter account into closing, like they’d made some great moral victory. It was all pretty gross, just for different reasons than EA claimed.

I think you meant “bottom to top”. But yes, that does change the tone a bit.

It’s so weird to me that no one uses the term “slowdown” any more. Lag and latency meant networking delays back in the days you’re talking about. Not a complaint, just an observation that I’ve been wondering about the last few years.

But yeah, as others said, slowdown/lag was pretty common. I immediately think of the ninjas jumping out of the water in TMNT3, the beginning of Top Man’s stage in Mega Man 3, and the last boss of The Guardian Legend, but there were many more. Early 3d is shocking too, with more sub-30-fps games than you remember. Some called themselves at 20, even. [Edit: Now that I think about it, even some NES games capped at 20. Strange times.]

You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with the foregoing restrictions Nintendo may render the Nintendo Account Services and/or the applicable Nintendo device permanently unusable in whole or in part.

It seems hard to believe, but that’s the threat being made. Time will tell whether that’s bluster or if they’re really prepared to do so.
