Lol it's like someone looked at the patent documents and made a mockup exactly to spec, as if patent documents aren't made specifically to be uselessly vague.

I'm dense and can't tell if you're joking about patent documents being uselessly vague... That is the exact opposite of what they are.

Nobody drinks alcohol for the taste, it's just something alcoholics say to rationalize their drinking and snobs say to justify spending exponentially more for fancy wines that they can't even tell apart under double blind testing.

Just sac up, feel the burn, and enjoy the social lubrication.


Once me and some friends made a batch of milk liquer and an illustrator friend mocked up hi-def versions of the LonLon ranch bottle labels for them, it was pretty great.

Pumpkin ale is very tasty actually. Alcohol Is Good, you just need to understand that it's an acquired taste and maybe pair it with some decent food.

lol Nintendo submits patents for a touchscreen display controller and also there is a ton of scuttlebutt that their next controller will be a touchscreen display controller but you're right it's totally, completely unfathomable that a picture of a touchscreen display controller could be legit lol

whether this specific picture is real or not I imagine the real thing is going to look pretty drat similar to this.

Games/GBS goons have a pavlovian negative reaction to the taste of alcohol because it makes them think of normies, socializing, going outside etc.

cocktails also taste good as do all sorts of other alcoholic drinks. also just because you can't tell all the different wines apart doesnt mean nobody likes how wine tastes

Eh, there's still months to go until the E3 reveal and even then controllers go through a lot of iterations. That controller looks pretty awkward to me if it is real but I don't doubt the reports that Nintendo has been looking for a way to merge the mobile and home console markets, especially since Japan has very little interest in the latter anymore.

I imagine the controller screen will just be a secondary option, like the Wii U tablet now.

Games don't simulate alcohol very well. It's all blurry vision, maybe skewed controls, maybe awful ragdoll trips, but where's the feeling of boisterous bonhomie?

If a drink is weak enough to actually taste good then it doesn't count. Just min/max your drinking with grain alcohol shots.

That game takes an interesting approach to drunk driving as well, every time you turn, the camera will swing more wildly around your car and take longer to recenter itself.
