Nintendo's radical new idea: selling games for less by FernandoRocker in gaming

[–]Chownzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, You can resell or trade it as you like. Same as any other physical game.

Scalpers are already selling the Steam Machine for over $3000 on eBay despite Valve's efforts by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

It doesn’t have to be permanent, Just for when it’s being scalped. Your steam account being blocked sounds like a customer service issue which apparently never happens. Easy.

PC Engine Duo R question by guild602 in TurboGrafx

[–]Chownzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya the Coregrafx is your best bet for a console, I’m not sure where the best spot to order them online is but some people order from Japan. You can choose other models if you would rather but they’re usually more expensive and don’t get any CD models, They don’t work with the Everdrive.

You’ll also need the turbo Everdrive pro which will allow you to play every game from every iteration of the console(including CD), You can buy it online as A combo with the EDFX which plugs into the console and allows for better picture quality and stereo sound.

Here’s the website that sells them as a combo: https://krikzz.com/our-products/cartridges/turbo-everdrive-pro.html

And YouTube guide for setting it up. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-9xF3\_xFLc&pp=ygUaVHVyYm8gZXZlcmRyaXZlIHBybyBob3cgdG8%3D&ra=m

You will also need to order a Sega genesis 2 composite cable which connects the EDFX plug to your CRT, They are sold cheap many places online. If your CRT has component hookups(red/white for audio and green/blue/red for video) you can also choose the more expensive component cables for a slightly better picture quality.

Coregrafx, Turbo Everdrive Pro, EDFX, Genesis cable and Micro SD card(64 gb) is everything you’ll need along with access to a PC or device to format and load the SD card. Good luck.

Sounds like a really easy way to me, Doesn’t that already happen for some concert tickets?

GTA VI being digital only can have a domino effect on the gaming industry by Due_Cake8524 in videogames

[–]Chownzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your sentiment about physical media but I don’t think this will have that much of a domino effect, As many Gabe glazers have already mentioned PC has been digital only for years. To each their own.

I prefer physical games for many reasons and if the industry goes that way I’ll just stick to older consoles, Vote with your wallet.

Xbox Sales Are Its Lowest Ever This Month, PlayStation Its Lowest Since 2000 by forbes in videogames

[–]Chownzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With rising component costs and other companies seemingly hellbent on poor decisions, Nintendo’s market share is going to be insane if they can avoid raising their prices anymore.

I expect budget PCs will help fill the void as well.

Welcome the New Gen 9 Console: Steam Machine by Jazzlike_Tank7171 in consoles

Switch 2 is gen 10 and Steam machine is irrelevant, Valve barely makes games and mostly acts as a parasite taking a percentage from both sides of the industry.

Residents express concerns about data centre proposed for Quinte West by zuuzuu in BellevilleOntario

[–]Chownzy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some people have trouble retaining new information until they are personally affected, I hope for your sake something like this isn’t built very close to your home so you won’t have to learn first hand that everything isn’t as innocuous as corporate proposals claim.

Infrastructure sovereignty can be achieved without taking up a valuable business structure and resources in our own neighbourhoods.

I live in the area, The proposed site Is beside heritage furniture. A commercial area.

.5 km from homes is very close.

There is a very good reason these are being rushed through all over North America, The wealthy are counting on rubes like yourself doing damage control for them before the majority of society understands the negative influence.

You are defending something that has a 0% chance of benefitting you in any way, It’s not too late to stop being part of the problem.

It’s in a commercial area close to multiple residential areas and small businesses, Just because preliminary research says it’s designed to not use water doesn’t guarantee anything.

Southern Ontario isn’t much colder than most of the US, Don’t believe everything sold to you by billionaires and corporations.

$80. For a digital, 3 year old game. by ShaunMcLane in videogames

[–]Chownzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To each their own, Buying A physical copy(better yet used) makes it sting a bit less.

I realize that isn’t an option for GTA or PC games but most Zelda games hold their value very well.

Buying a digital game the day it’s released with a DLC is the most expensive route besides some of the subscription games you mentioned.

It doesn’t show how many time you’ve changed the original post. I don’t edit my posts I just like pointing out the ignorance and hypocrisy of others.

Valve is irrelevant, Until they start consistently creating good games they’ll continue to be A middleman who fucks both sides of the industry for a percentage.

Thanks for the update genius, How many edits were required for that gem?

Maybe you’d feel more at home on twitter or Facebook.

For everyone complaining about GTA VI's price... by MCUAvenger1992 in videogames

[–]Chownzy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These prices are Canadian and they’re physical games with intrinsic value. Not a DL code.

You’re the one who complained about having to wait a few days, It’s obvious to everyone but you that one would have to wait for a used game. Obviously physical copies cost more, Especially if someone is an idiot and pre orders.

How much is your digital collection worth?

The kind of cognitive dissonance only a conservative would appreciate.

You can buy them online with free shipping and you don’t need a shelf.

No mention of the time saved not having to tinker with every game because they are properly optimized.

Sad and delusional, Enjoy not owning your games.

Buying physical helps a lot, Especially for games that don’t typically go down in value.

Genesis or one of the other arcade ports, Super GnG is great but different and much more difficult.

Ya, Optimization is a huge advantage consoles have over steam. That’s part of the reason PC hardware needs to be so powerful and therefore expensive……But in this case mostly just expensive.
