If two normal people get in a fight, one person killing the other is called murder I don't see it any differently when one of the people is a cop Stop putting police on a pedestal, and especially ICE, they're just people, they have no more rights than the rest of us

You price products based on what the customer is willing to buy it for. Nintendo losing money on it is a them problem, not a me problem.

Silver is mines out of the ground at 8:1 and we are seeing a shortage of silver. Also, everyone was already shorting silver years before you did. Trying to short it now while itโ€™s repricing is how you get poor.

I like how some people are trying to clown on him saying โ€œOH WHY DONT YOU JUST PLAY 3RD PARTY GAMESโ€ Thatโ€™s what Steam is for. The games they are going to show will have come out 2 years ago and will all be available on Steam anyway U donโ€™t buy Nintendo for 3rd party

With the exception of Hyrule Warriors and Elliot, I was able to find every one of these games on Steam And Elliot will be on Steam a year after it comes out on Switch. So why even buy this brick??

I know there is a โ€œPS5 has no games joke thereโ€ but if he has a PS5, he probably has other games for it you ding bat. Also if you are going to call others out, post your own PSN first. None of this โ€œrules for thee but not for meโ€ BS

$70 price hurt this game as it has for all games (Monster Hunter Wilds being the poster boy for this) Drop the price, add some content to get people back and youโ€™ll easily get another million or two.

Itโ€™s funny seeing Nintendo fans trying to dunk on Sonic Crossworlds doing below SEGAโ€™s expectation yet last month in the US it was the best selling third party game on Switch Oh but they are totally excited for the Partner Direct

This post is a bit dumb when you realize Switch 2 has been losing, not gaining, momentum. In the first holiday season, Switch 2 shipped 7M (Q4 25) compared to Switch 1โ€™s 7.2M. Switch 1 was also harder to find while every retailer was marking down Switch 2. Investors know this.

Nigel Farage is a snake. Work from home means fewer hours spent on the road. More hours spent sleeping. More hours spent with family. It's a restoration of the old world, but he hates it because he's a boomer and to the boomer no one should have it easier than they did.

โ€œPeeps didnโ€™t even buy game like thatโ€ Then what does that say about third party games on Switch because it was the only one not published by Nintendo that sold well in December lol For a game these people supposedly hate, they seem to secretly like it

Valve isnโ€™t a console manufacturer. Their main product is Steam which is where all their money is made. Things like the Steam Deck and the Gabe Cube are extra devices for their existing customers.

Maybe if the game industry stops making shit games no one wants to play and then "blaming" gamers for not wanting to play their garbage. This is not a gamer problem. This is a developer problem.

The concept of digital asset ownership applies to entire games on PC and console, too. It's 2026, and we still cannot sell or just transfer our "used" digital games once we bought them. Am I the only one who thinks this is incredible, especially given games are US$70-80 now?

People keep getting this wrong The issue isnโ€™t that the US canโ€™t do tariffs. Itโ€™s that the PRESIDENT can just unilaterally impose tariffs. Revenue is Congressโ€™s function GOP controls both houses so it SHOULD be moot, but Trump is fucking lazy.
