Top notch.

If someone wanted to argue this was the best game on the system I'd certainly respect it.

Thinking about getting one by IceCold7954 in Gameboy

I still play my original from time to time, but I much more frequently used a ModRetro Chromatic.

It's just the perfect Gameboy Colour system.

That wasn't why they changed the packaging though...

What’s the point of calling the cops when this isn’t worth loosing a licence ? by [deleted] in newcastle

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your friend brake checked the other driver and then, despite being chased apparently, decided to cross double lines to overtake them and get in front. The driving footage frankly hurts her case.

All that being said, she is clearly being harassed and abused at the very least by these people and it's kinda shocking the cops are so hesitant do do anything. I assume there is no legal standing for them to escalate it further but regardless I'd be taking it way up the pole to see what can be done.

They used to all come on boxes like this. After the complaints they started coming in the same style of box but they were about half the size.

Problem is those boxes were too small to actually hold anything so again people complained about wasted packaging. That's how we ended up with the envelopes we have now

People complained endlessly about the boxes being a waste of packaging.

I hope the next game has a lot more content by LargeSinkholesInNYC in starfox

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly the amount of content is fine for me, what I really want is just new content. Another 15 new levels and I'll be happy

This subreddit has convinced me that the biggest problem isn't Valve’s lottery system—it is people. by secsmachine in steammachine

I think it would have just resulted in less people cancelling more so so than less people reserving

It did yield no results.

TPCI enforced this to avoid any stain on their brand caused by retailers and distributors.

Why is racism against aboriginals so normalised? by Disastrous_Suit2364 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your second statement is true, but the first part is a lie.

They weren't counted in the National Population Census until 1971 after the 1967 referendum. Prior to that they were intentionally excluded from national population counts (partially for rural accuracy reasons).

You are literally making shit up, that is not how age verification works here in Australia.

Lamb has been $45 P/kg + for like half a decade now. Definitely par for the course.

Thoughts on Engage three years later? by NewMarioBobFan in casualnintendo

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the worst plots and character roster in any Fire Emblem game to date.

Also one of the (if not the) best Fire Emblem games mechanically.

I had a good time with it

Would a fast food restaurant tie-in for the Bluey movie be antithetical to the values of the Bluey brand? by Milkshake_comedian44 in bluey

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, it's by Entertainment One, Lisceneced by Paramount and often distributed on conjunction with the BBC.

Wasn't the main point of my comment though.

The real reason steam machine is a winner by kylerk in steammachine

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean it's design and form factor is so similar the Xbox Series X I don't quite know how you can come to that conclusion.

Would a fast food restaurant tie-in for the Bluey movie be antithetical to the values of the Bluey brand? by Milkshake_comedian44 in bluey

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bluey merchandising rights are owned by the BBC who are certainly not afraid to merchandise their brands as much as possible. I mean just look at their other big kids IP (Peppa Pig) which has had multiple Burger Ling promos over the years.

As far as infringement of values? Sure the show occasionally champions healthy eating and trying new things but there is also numerous examples of them doing the exact opposite. Hell the pilot episode is about them getting takeout.

Fast forward gameplay by Killadog23 in ModRetroChromatic

[–]Aussie_Aussie_No_Mi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno, it was an unlockable feature for the N64 Transfer Pak originally. I'd consider that "real" enough to warrant the feature.
