My TV has a Steam Link app. It owns.

Mine does too but the one time I used it there was a lot of hitching (and this was over wired). My actual Steam Link didn’t have that problem but the audio would cut out for a half second every few minutes. I guess I’m cursed

Word of mouth and the giantbomb quick look makes it seem like simplistic, underwhelming garbo. It's a shame this sort of product is holding a proper NMH 3 hostage.

It's not great. The gameplay is very repetitive and simple, and the death ball games all look like they were made with stock unreal assets, like it reminds me of an XBLA game from 2011. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone at the asking price, maybe if it was $10-$15 it would be worth it but right now I think it's too little for what they're asking for.

Plus there's no loading graphic when the game loads the main hub area so it just sits at a black screen for 20 seconds, I restarted it twice when I first popped in the game because I thought it froze.

Dumb investors seek price spikes instead of thinking about long term growth and dividends, which are both fairly safe bets with a large cap like Nintendo. I think Nintendo paid dividends of something like $6 a share last year which is pretty ok bang for your buck long term. The shares are also eye-wateringly expensive at $300+USD right now which is insane and most of the weakness in price (along with EA et al) has little to do with the company's immediate behaviour (it is a factor of course, but mainly for individual investors) and lots to do with consumer discretionary, IT and communications stocks being in the toilet globally.

I've been buying Nintendo for a few months now and they're only around $39 USD each currently, which really isn't too bad if you want to grab some shares.

Its got just barely enough No More Heroes charm in the margins to overlook some of the gameplay repetitiveness. I'm enjoying it well enough.

That would be nice, but when you list the company publicly the investors can decide to gently caress you up.

Victor Vran is a little too easy even compared to the normally-scotfree deaths of D3. It's also not as fun in terms of skillsets and loot so yeah, Diablo 3

Victor Vran also has a bunch of enemies that have to be killed twice, so you never really get to just run through the areas like a murder machine. I put it down as soon as I got Diablo.

There's a console D3 thread in the Bliz subforum (I think) that's mostly Switch players now. I believe the Switch discord also has a D3 channel.

Sorry I was talking about a full share on the Tokyo exchange. The US trades ADRs which basically buy 1/8th of a full share in Japan. Nintendo stock exists in an extremely limited pool since they never really need to raise capital.

e: this just prompted me to learn that Nintendo also trade a full share in NY under $NTDOF

They have cash savings large enough to fend off a takeover from pretty much any corporation that would be willing to give it a go.
