Yeah no I don't know about Silent Hill sorry

You commented on my Silent Hill cringe :p
If you meant it for Fallout, then I am more interested in the series xD

So the TV series is in 2296, in LA.
Fallout: New Vegas takes place is 2281
So 15 years after the conclusion of New Vegas in theory

I have a doctorate in Fallout knowledge.. ask your questions.. I've been playing since the first game released, and have over 5000 hours total in all of them lol

||The problem is that by mentioning New Vegas and the NCR existing as a force 15 years after, it implies that there's a specific canonical ending to NV?||

I was looking up an actor the other day bc I know I've seen him in other things.

Bees usually don't mean to sting you. Wasps cling to to you and go, "take that mother f****"

I still feel Nintendo lost a lot with the Switch.

#

It wasn't a bad move, but they didn't exactly succeed

peak folio
#

Wot?

humble parrot
#

Look at it this way: For every of it's predecessors, there's was also a separate handheld that sold millions

peak folio
#

The Switch is the best thing that happened for Nintendo like ever.

humble parrot
#

It hasn't even outsold the DS

peak folio
#

The above chart is quite dated

humble parrot
#

And the DS happened right with the Wii.

#

150 million + 100 million

#

But now those 2 markets are the same.

#

Sure, It's better than the Wii U/3DS

#

But it's not even comparable to the previous era.

queen vale
humble parrot
#

Even in the snes/gameboy era, the total of units sold was higher than the switch

#

Even if you go GBC/N64

peak folio
humble parrot
#

Sure, It's a nice recovery from the Wii U, but still, the amount of units moved between both markets is lower.

peak folio
#

The switch is on track to beating the DS (just some 15 million to go)

It's already EoL

The Wii was kind of an odd exception since it attracted a new and non-loyal fan base that didn’t stick around.

The EyeToy is a color webcam for use with the PlayStation 2. Supported games use computer vision and gesture recognition to process images taken by the EyeToy. This allows players to interact with the games using motion, color detection, and also sound, through its built-in microphone. It was released in 2003.
The camera was manufactured by Logi...

Even the 3DS sold better than the NES.

that was peak nintendo tho

And that was a low point, right in a mobile "gaming" market boon

humble parrot

Yes, the low point

night plume

#

Wii and NDS were both selling at the same time.

#

To get accurate performance, you should consider both as the Switch is a hybrid console.

peak folio
#

Wii never really got much for core games.

humble parrot
#

Gameboy + SNES

#

or GBC + N64

#

Not sure If I'm getting my point across

peak folio
#

You’re thinking of nintendo giving up something that they’ve been losing anyway.

night plume
#

I've missed a chunk of convo, so I'm slightly lost

humble parrot
#

Considering that it was the handheld market what kept them afloat after the great mistake

peak folio
humble parrot
#

Not a loss per se, but not as successful

#

As portrayed.

#

They didn't really sacrifice a market, they merged them

#

If you grab the switch sales and pit them against only consoles, or only handhelds, they look geat

peak folio
#

Nintendo probably realized that their consoles were almost consistently waning and that mobile post 2010 was starting to eat their lunch.

humble parrot
#

But the reality is that, those consoles sold like that with a handheld also selling that way at the same time.

#

Their move makes sense, handhelds were always successful for them

peak folio
#

I haven’t checked for numbers on Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes and Animal Crossing Pocket Camp

humble parrot
#

The mobile game market is like the closest thing to the video game crash before Nintendo launched the NES

peak folio
#

A dockable handheld was the right choice for them, methinks.

humble parrot
#

Tons of slop readily available everywhere, saturating that market with trash.

#

No, I'm not saying it's going to crash,

But It is kind of like that time, in terms of quality and amount

I wouldn't say Nintendo Sucks (Their games are objectively some of the best in the market), but their internal priorities are... Disturbing.

I’m more disturbed by the fans than the company as of late.

small berry
#

omg someone made a copy of pokemon they deserve the worst

hard peak
#

Maybe for the same reasons as I think what I think of their priorities (Krystal). So to explain, as seen in a prototype, Krystal was meant to be way more modest (I would have thought she was a blue cat without her tail), but Miyamoto decided to have her latest design (Why?).

small berry

and they used AI too, jesus

Yeah Krystal was Rare, I think the one thing Nintendo intervened was to add the Star Fox characters

humble parrot
#

Yes

#

(And ruin that game)

humble parrot
#

I have a ROM for dinosaur planet, it was such a different game.

red fractal
#

here's an example of what I mean with AI, it sounds almost identical to the real doc mitchell

hard peak
# humble parrot Both.

It seems Miyamotot actually did have a say in Krystal, and he redesigned her because Star Fox is meant to be "Serious" and not "Humorous".

#

Then, if I may ask, why is it advertised as being for kids?

humble parrot
#

That's about it

peak folio
#

I’m not sure I’m seeing the issue.

red fractal

I dont know, skimpy clothing isnt something very Miyamoto ish

Star Fox lands on Dinosaur Planet so they just wanted to sell Krystal as a native Amazon or something

Dinosaur Planet.

It had Fox in there, already.

#

Let me show you

peak folio
#

The old trailer was somebody else but that rom must have been from later.

night plume
#

I know the one on gamecube was supposed to be a completely different game. They thought it wouldn't sell and decided to put Star Fox characters in it to make it more presentable.

I think I would have enjoyed it if it was its own game.

hard peak
#

Okay, so, atleast Krystal looking like she does makes some sense, but there is something I still don't understand.

red fractal
#

Well so far I dont see anything of Miyamoto changing Krystal design
Just him wanting to make it related to Star Fox due to similarities with some designs

#

Tho funny enough, Sabre's design is very similar to Link's

humble parrot
#

I can't switch characters, I need to advance more with krystal maybe.

hard peak
#

Why do they want Palworld gone so bad? Are they frightened of competition? I was once told (Not entirely trustworthy, so take it with a grain of salt) that an artist who did... Distasteful things with Pokemon unironically wanted to make concept art for them, but they more or less told him to go touch grass (Probably not in these words tho).

peak folio
hard peak
#

They also take things like Bowsette and go "Hey, this is fake, you are ignorant if you think it is."

red fractal
#

Ok so basically really early versions of the game had Sabre, apparently he was going to die too
Later in development they changed him to Fox, I think Sabre does appear in SFA but as a secondary character and he doesnt die

humble parrot
#

It's crazy the amount of content that got cut out just to make it a starfox game

hard peak
humble parrot
#

Entire sections that made no sense, suddenly made sense.

#

Like, the temple at the beginning

peak folio
humble parrot
#

Like, you arrive to the temple in the ship you attack at the beginning

#

And from there, you teleport somewhere and then play a sabre/fox section

#

Then that part is exactly like Adventures, but with a few differences

#

The whole bike chase section for tricky was broken, there was no race to the end, you just reach the end and get tricky out of nowhere

#

Krystal has a pterodactyl sidekick

#

The sounds are better, the music is slightly different.

#

There's a hub world for both playable characters

red fractal
#

Ok yeah the version with Fox that appears in some of the N64 versions was after Miyamoto intervened,
It was gonna be called Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet, and it was gonna feature the Star Fox team alongside the Rare original characters like Sabre and Krystal
However when the Gamecube was being near released they decided to make a new version as a launch title for the gamecube, some characters like Sabre being completely dropped

peak folio
#

Interesting.

#

They never made another Star Fox Adventures, but there was that one licensed version of Starlink which confused me greatly.

#

Nintendo needs to figure out what they want to do with that license.

red fractal
#

And yeah, seems like Grievous was right, well it was not Miyamoto originally, it was Imamura (artist for the star fox series) who gave Krystal that design, inspired by Vampirella to add "sex appeal" to the franchise and so it could be seen as more mature, funny enough the rating boards people did not change the rating surprisingly, guess they're not furries lol

humble parrot
#

That reminds me

#

Starfox 2 for the SNES was entirely completed

#

But they just canned it

peak folio
#

I think it’s available on the switch in the online subscription

I don't know, I've had the ROM for years

humble parrot

It's not as hard to get as Dinosaur Planet

peak folio
#

I never got to try the walking awrwing

red fractal
#

but maybe its a bit too ambitious considering the console

humble parrot
#

If you play Starfox 2 for the SNES, you'll see how they recycled the gameplay everywhere

#

The whole starfox command system? Yup, that was in the SNES.

#

The arwings walk mode? Also SNES.

#

funny enough Assault and Command are the most original Star Fox games after 64

#

Assault could really use a good remaster or remake

peak folio
#

Star Fox 64 made tactile feedback a thing

#

last thing Star Fox needs is another remake

humble parrot

At least not a N64 one.

Zero was...well

They could have existed back when he did the work and have been removed, they could be something needed that isn't listed properly on what I'm looking at, could be a lot of things. I can tell I'm missing a couple pieces of equipment so some of these random pieces might be it.

I do not undersrand Amber alerts. I never get any for my immediate area. I'll see those on billboards put up by the families.

But, I'll get alerts for places many, many, many hours away and I just wonder, "did they bother to put this alert out in that area? In the surrounding area?"

I understand wanting to have the alert out to areas that the driver could potentially be going, but they are usually so far out it sometimes would take them days....

#

And why do they vanish? Why isn't there an archive for me to go to for them or a link I can open for more information?

The people who send out the amber alerts in my area have a twitter account where they post the perpetrator's face if they have it

So the website still has the Copyright 2023 on it, and there's nothing listed about what kind of games are going to be on the show..

This year, you can expect some reflection on the positively transformative changes PC gaming has seen in that time, but don't worry, we won't let the navel gazing get in the way of the world premieres, exclusive announcements, and developer interviews. You can expect over 50 games at this year's PC Gaming Show.
