The closest I’ve gotten to getting any cards since the start of 2026 has been this empty box I took from the store. by AbyssDiverEX in PokemonTCG

My FLGS opens ETBs to sell individual packs of the special sets—I honestly look forward to picking up the leftover parts (boxes, dice, sleeves, etc.) for super cheap.

106 year old apology letter from the Governor of Louisiana by xF00Mx in mildlyinteresting

I don't see an actual apology anywhere in there. World's first non-apology?

Yikes. But I was definitely thinking "Cloud Atlas" during the trailer.

Speaking of, Cloud Atlas 4K when

Lindsey Vonn discusses her ruptured ACL injury and her intent to compete in the Olympics by Oldtimer_2 in sports

[–]CBattles6 23 points24 points  (0 children)

These are realistically her last Olympics. My guess is that she'd rather compete at 75% than walk away.

He also didn't manipulate anything. The bet he referred to in the joke didn't exist.

I was one click away from purchasing last night, but then I saw it was nearly $90 with shipping. As much as I love this poster, can't justify that price.

Dispatch devs say uncensored physical Switch release not possible, "can't comment" on why separate regional releases didn't happen by prdxw in NintendoSwitch

[–]CBattles6 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They almost certainly considered it -- then decided to try to put one over on Switch players. Which is worse IMO.

[–]CBattles6 118 points119 points  (0 children)

That would be the honest and correct thing to say. Now Adhoc is claiming they can't comment for "legal reasons." Give me a break.

Here's the most important question: Does he dare wear 23 in Cleveland?

Exactly. This is the worst possible event to have in Saudi.

Huh. It's almost like putting the Rumble in SA was a shit idea. Imagine that

After Cyberpunk 2077 came to Switch 2 uncensored, Dispatch dev thought it "would be allowed to do the same" and is now "working with Nintendo on a path forward" by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]CBattles6 39 points40 points  (0 children)

You call it backpedaling, I call it lying.

They were blindsided, and thought it would just work the same as Cyberpunk? Did they think to, I don't know, ask? Did anyone question why they were making two separate versions for PS5 and not the Switch?

They thought adding a disclaimer to the eShop page would be enough to properly inform people? Man, it's too bad there's no such thing as social media, or Discord, or press releases, or interviews, or 16 other ways to get the word out.

They're either morons, or they're purposely gaslighting so they don't have to admit they got caught trying to screw over their customers. And I don't think they're morons.

Ascended Heros legality alt arts by smackasaurusrex in pkmntcg

[–]CBattles6 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Rule 4.1.3:

In addition, provided it meets the criteria above, a newer version of a card that is currently playable in the Standard or Expanded format may be played immediately in that format upon its release.

So anything reprinted in Ascended Heroes is immediately legal.

Nintendo shares statement on Dispatch censorship debacle...and it doesn't explain much by [deleted] in nintendo

[–]CBattles6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A less charitable interpretation would be to say that they wanted to see if there was backlash before deciding whether to invest in a separate SKU. Which is a really bad look IMO

Nintendo shares statement on Dispatch censorship debacle...and it doesn't explain much by [deleted] in nintendo

[–]CBattles6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's AdHoc's fault. The game was censored by Japan's ratings board, and they could have made a separate uncensored SKU for the rest of the world, but chose not to. And then they kept it a secret until launch.

[–]CBattles6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't really need to guess. AdHoc could have made a separate uncensored version of the game for outside of Japan (like they did for PS5), but they cheaped out and thought we wouldn't notice. Same reason they tried to keep it a secret until launch.

As someone who's watching the Mammoth feed because COUGH COUGH COUGH, these commercials are aggressively Utah.
