you can settle for the 1 or 2 NES games we give you now... OR you can pay an extra $5 a month for 1 or 2 N64 games delivered to you every 6 months

There's always a drat catch with Nintendo model upgrades. Moving everything from my launch model to the red box model was really easy with the cloud and SD card, but that was prior to Animal Crossing. Now I need my current model to do the Animal Crossing transfer next month.

You don't *need* it. You can backup the island now, notate your serial number and NNID, then just call up Nintendo and they'll port it over to your new Switch that way. I did it when I sold my old Switch and got the Animal Crossing version one.

And Eastward is great. The start is slow, but only in story. It looks visually amazing and that's enough for me. I wasn't a huge fan of Stardew, but this game is just published by Chucklefish, a small (3 person!!!) team made Eastward and I guess its style pinged Chuckefish to help out.

Yeah, I've only been able to put an hour or so into it so far, but Eastward really seems like something special.

Eastward is some sort of action game isn't it? With the Earthbound looking stuff you'd think it's an RPG but I remember the trailer being rather different.

Yeah it looks like the actual gameplay is more like Zelda. Real time combat not turn based.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
Reasons include wanting to go west

Dallas Mavericks: Generations

lol at higher tiered pricing for N64 games. The main thing Nintendo online has going for it is how cheap it is. Making it more expensive for free games from 5 console generations ago would be crazy while PS5/XSX gives much more recent games.

I would absolutely pay $100 for a Switch edition of Xenogears. But that's niche enough I despair of Square ever doing it.

That's pretty interesting. Patents are always whatever, companies patent a ton of poo poo and renew trademarks they'll never use, but a filing with the FCC means something's coming out
