Hmmm if you're not playing Pirate's Curse on 3DS you're missing the most important feature...

Honestly it's probably a little more complicated than that. I understand where you're coming from, and that would've been the outcome in a perfect world. Law is scary and tangly, though, and I guess protecting their IP came before considering any business deals.

Yeah you're probably right, but I've seen a few fangames get released officially, so I think if Nintendo was willing they could find a way to do it without damaging their IP rights.

Lurdiak posted:Almost all of the assets are unique except for a couple sound clips. Nintendo is the last video game company on earth that will be open to releasing fan games. Hell, the internet infrastructure on their consoles still feels like it's a decade behind the times let alone their policy on this sort of stuff. I think the fact that Nintendo waited until the game was out and available to send the C&D is the best anyone could've hoped for.

Yeah, I had no problem using the d-pad on an xbone controller, which honestly is the only controller you need for pc gaming. You don't even need a dongle for the newer ones anymore, they connect via bluetooth.

Wired Xbox One is the way to go.

In Training posted:Computers don't have bluetooth anymore Pretty much every laptop I've had over the last 7-8 years, including the one I bought a year ago, has had one, and the last desktop I bought maybe 5 years ago does too so I can't imagine why they would suddenly stop including them. But even so, raditts posted:buy a bluetooth dongle off amazon for $2 because it's not like computers these days have any shortage of USB ports.

64-bit Windows 7 is kinda fucky in terms of Bluetooth, actually.

I mean when you put it that way, sure, there are mobos with built-in Bluetooth and wi-fi receivers. For me, it's more important that it's compatible with a multi-OS system than having those other features.

I'm not sure what your use case is but the last time I looked into hackintosh, it was such a huge pain in the butt, with all kinds of asterisk-filled white lists of parts to buy and some pretty annoying stuff to do to get a stable installation of OSX working. Blugh.

It's pretty easy to get a stable build, it's mostly the motherboard that's the limiting factor. Unless it came out like last month, most popular models of cpu and gpu are supported. I mean, unless you like AMD processors but then my tolerance for bullshit is extremely high, i put up with a linux installation back in the days when they expected you to ping a server from the command line to get ethernet drivers... but i can totally relate to your dislike of building hackintosh because i haven't used linux since for this exact reason Fur20 fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Apr 10, 2017 |

My gaming pc has shuffled from this mortal coil. I am sad to say that this is the end of this thread because the majority (95%) of my games were steam based and I was trying to cut down my steam library. I did enjoy a lot of things I might never have tried. Before it died I was REALLY enjoying Rayman Origins, Shantae and AM2R. I thank you for keeping up with me even if I am not a prolific poster. I will be mostly PS4 gaming now and will have to set this whole thing aside for 2018 (at least by then I will have a new PC I think!) You all rock and thank you for keeping me in high spirits/watching me/recommending things to me

koolkal posted:Tldr: he wants to play his switch and his pc had an "accident"  It's an old PC that I bought in 2009. The only things I've not upgraded were the motherboard and CPU. The CPU is flaking out now when I boot (its an old 2500k) and I have been meaning to upgrade it since I got my GTX970 two years ago, but it just hasn't happened yet. It's easier just to keep it turned off until I can afford a new motherboard/cpu combo and do some electronic surgery.

You don't even need a dongle for the newer ones anymore, they connect via bluetooth. Any idea if they play well with the Bluetooth on an Mac? I got pretty far in AM2R on a PS3 remote, but I had to quit when the remote stopped connecting (both wired and through Bluetooth). Was playing on an iMac from 2011 if that matters. I tried getting a 360 controller dongle, but apparently they only work with Windows OS.
