This has been making the rounds recently, and it's like a game of telephone where each report on it gets the context even more wrong than the last.

It's not a "comment", it's a patch for the Linux kernel that adds cpufreq support for the Tegra 239. The only thing that it corroborates is the existence of the 239 (if it wasn't confirmed before), and that Nvidia is working on getting Linux (for Android perhaps) up and running on it.

It says nothing about the Switch though. For one (something that apparently everyone reporting on this has missed), the Switch doesn't run Linux/Android.

Like the only thing this says is that the 239 is real and not a made up number, and that it has eight cores.

It's also not a "leak", this is how Linux development is done and has been for decades.

Thank you. I was reading it over and over trying to figure out what about that news implied the existence or development of a new Nintendo console :thunk:

Yeah I mean, there may well someday be a Switch 2 that uses the T239, but this "leak" doesn't confirm that at all.

🚣RowboatMan: ❄️Freezing time🕰️ is an old P.I. 🥧trick...

The craziest thing about Supper Mario Broth thing is that the person running it has other social media accounts under the same name, and never posts a fact to more than one of them. That means that the SMB Facebook page has all different facts, same with anything else they run (I can't remember, outside of the site).

Edit: ok, I guess it's mainly just the site and twitter. Could have sworn there used to be a Tumblr and fb page, too.

They should have made a Luigi movie where he conquers his fear of ghosts to save Mario. Built in character arc and everything.

Has there been any word on how this compares to the Geofront fan translation? I know it's the same people, but have there been upgrades or improvements over the existing patched pc port? Such that a fan in possession of the latter would have a good reason to spend $60 on the former.

Sorry I've not really been following it other than to know the the PS4 port is the worst version lol

As far as I'm aware the old PC port + translation patch + improvements done are at parity with the Switch port and the new official Steam version but that's about it.

I finally beat the Radiance for the true ending of Hollow Knight. I hope they don't double down on some of this poo poo in the sequel.

Real fun having to fight Hollow Knight everytime again to get to the boss.

Mario has little man syndrome, and is constantly trying to compensate by having Bowser create situations where he can look like a hero. Luigi is just out there living his best life. Keeping to himself, and not getting involved in starting money laundering schemes. Nintendo doesn't want you to read between the lines. But I think we know who the better brother is.

Luigi's probably seeing Princess Daisy, but it's a low-key in-private thing rather than a big public mess like Mario and Peach's relationship.

That's the reason I never finished. Just too much of a bitch to do over and over. No game should lock bosses behind bosses.

If it isn't already, move it to the HDMI 1 slot.
Ive had stuff act funny before if it isn't in that slot (all depends on the TV model, I guess)

Sekiro’s final boss kicked so much rear end and had one of these. By the time I beat it I was just destroying the first phase, it ruled.

Pitiful grandchild, indeed.
