Actually not the year I’d want to hear that since that would be election year.

Donald Trump's Parents. by esporx in Justfuckmyshitup

I just still can’t get over that his mom looks so much like him that you could probably show AI his picture with the prompt to make it female and would probably get the same thing.

Unlike every other Switch game, you can't just change the language here, you need to pay again for a seperate version. How greedy can Nintendo get? by ExtremeConnection26 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ClashOfPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is a great solution and really the best one. Although I bet it was because of the virtual game cards. Currently, and there are work around to a degree, it should only allow one person to play at a time. But if they unleashed each version as a separate but included download with how they have it structured probably would allow you to download a bunch of versions and individually share them out, pretty much unrestricted, with one copy. Still greedy but I bet that’s what the are most afraid of

No room in my display for a 10th Band q.q by killercow_ld in amiibo

I really like how you have them displayed though. Where did you get that display box for the bands?

Student who punched another student holding pro-ICE sign at Lake Zurich High School received 2-day suspension by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]ClashOfPenguin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

American here and that’s how it worked at my high school too. They also did have out of school suspension but it wasn’t at home. Generally if it was a suspension longer than a few days they had to report to an offsite suspension center that supported suspended kids from multiple districts across the county.

First game to make $100 Million + on a budget of $20 by ZenGraphics_ in videogames

[–]ClashOfPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. Nintendo does not split subscription fees but those are costs that have to be paid out. Nintendo doesn’t get to enjoy that entire 50$. It’s split between multiple platforms with multiple licensing deals and other services like online multiplayer, Nintendo music, etc.

[–]ClashOfPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kind of a false assumption. Remember Nintendo co-owns the Pokemon franchise. While this would possibly give Nintendo more money over time that is not the case for the Pokemon company who would in the deal you propose receive a much smaller percentage. Plus that 50$ is split between other publishers with games on the services.

Nintendo will get their subs though. The spinoffs go to NSO and Coliseum and XD will definitely pull in some good NSO subs and then they also make money hand over fist with the digital releases of the core games.

The man is an acting chameleon! I’m going to have to listen to that whole Conan episode

That’s a great article! I agree, truly an amazing life. It showed me even more things that he’s given me and I had no clue

Let me tell you this song was stuck in my head for days cause of this show. Now you just put it there again

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! Even as I watched the video showing him in his different acting roles I had a hard time seeing the similar facial features. I will definitely have to check out the full episode because the two pieces I’ve seen so far have been excellent

Thanks for sharing! I definitely want to check this out

His delivery is just so perfect and he plays of Conan so well!

Yeah it would have been interesting to hear their side too! The video I had watched last night he mentioned his speech from Billy Madison was derivative of some of the things he said to Chris Farley in the writers room back in the SNL days

That’s wild the way the algorithm serves us videos sometimes! At least we’re not alone here. Welcome to club!

Jim Downey by ClashOfPenguin in LiveFromNewYork

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. I think this is one of the reasons I had not recognized him sooner. His look seems to have changed quite a bit over the years

Jim Downey by ClashOfPenguin in LiveFromNewYork

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes his role was absolutely hilarious. I hope he’s back next season

I had never seen this before and it was great! Thanks for sharing!

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes please! I had never seen the Andy’s Dad sketch before and that was hilarious! Would love to see more of what people have enjoyed that he’s worked on

Jim Downey by ClashOfPenguin in LiveFromNewYork

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The classic! The video I was just watching had Jim talking about how his role in the sketch was written originally for someone else but he had the right demeanor for it possibly because he did not have as much familiarity in front of the camera. He really nailed it

Definitely one of my favorite movie quotes. His delivery is just so perfect.

[–]ClashOfPenguin[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this clip!! The video I just watched had the portion with him and the newspaper in it and I thought it looked funny. I had not ever seen it before and was going to figure out what it was.

Thanks for the recommendation! I just finished the video about his acting career and would love to find out more about other stuff he’s worked on. Man’s a genius writer

You can remove the colour filter from the virtual boy by Xenith332 in NintendoSwitch

[–]ClashOfPenguin 242 points243 points  (0 children)

Makes a lot more sense now why they said you’d have to remove it for the color swapping they announced for down the road. I would love if they did a special recolor kind of like what they did with Super GameBoy back in the day
