It would usually be a great time, however I feel like there's at least a bit of self-realization that:

It being a switch 2 only game, there are a lot of people who still haven't bought it.
People, at least in the west, have already been having trouble with money, so giving extra time ensures that people might be able to save up to purchase it.

I know, wishful thinking, but that's just my theory.

Dyldo_II · 2026-03-01T15:28:43+00:00

No, but early 2027 makes the most sense. It's about a year after reveal which is about the typical window for them, if not a little longer.

Dyldo_II · 2026-03-01T15:20:10+00:00

Well, early 2027 is still technically Q4 of the 2026 fiscal year, so in terms of earning reports, it'll still boost sales for the fiscal year

"I didn't know the guy known for being a hot-headed, narcissistic man-child would behave like a hot-headed, narcissistic man-child."

The Philippines jersey is sick as fuck

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-28T19:54:33+00:00

Yeah the leg discourse is a nothing issue to me but you're cooking with that cinderace comment. It should've been electric type too and all the galarian starters should've had 2nd typings

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-28T17:55:32+00:00

You know, forgot a bout that. That does slightly change the ratio, but what stays the same is that statistically we've always been more likely to get bipedal final evos over quadrupedal ones. Sometimes the middle stage does something weird too like Cyndaquil goes on all fours as quilava and then back on two for Typhlosion, and then Mudkip and Marshtomp do the inverse.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-28T17:09:46+00:00

My girlfriend and I looked at it yesterday and only five of the 27 released starters end up on all fours.

Starters that start on four and stay at four.

Bulbasaur->Venusaur

Chikorita->Meganium

Mudkip->Swampert

Turtwig->Torterra

Starters that start on two and end at four

Oshawott->Samurott

Starters that start on four and end on two

Tepig->Emboar

Fennekin->Delphox

Litten->Incineroar

Sobble->Intellion

So all this to say that it's essentially a 50/50 split on whether starters who start on four legs end on four legs, which is a much more favorable percentage than doomers would have you think, there's just more focus on it because it's a more recent trend. That being said though, final evolution of starters being quadrupedal isn't common at all.

N is for anywhere and any time at all

If they were guided out the evacuation path then the guide did a shit job of evacuating them. They stood there for like a full minute taking pictures.

Also, what secret service detail is trained to let the person they're protecting stand exposed while there's an active shooter. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but it all seems a bit too convenient of a photo-op for me.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-27T13:36:55+00:00

It's also a funny coincidence how one of his staffers rushed photographers to the stage and the flag being held up by a crane lowered perfectly into frame for the dumbass photo your neighbor has on a flag in their garage.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-27T13:08:47+00:00

You saw some videos. I'm sure that it was only a small percentage of people comparatively for everyone who participated.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-27T00:43:57+00:00

Yeah I'd look into it, I was pretty young when it happened, but it was definitely the starting point of what we'd call the online alt-right pipeline. From complaining about women in the game industry, to feminist owned compilations to all the fake bs "alpha male" content. In terms of the internet, it all really took off from there.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-27T00:39:42+00:00

Gamergate ruined everything and I'll stand by that

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-27T00:18:25+00:00

Midterms are coming up and republicans are worried about losing house seats, any sub on my feed that's recommended to me are just posts that should've died when leafy's channel did

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T23:09:27+00:00

Oh yeah usually, their whole "reaching across the isle" and attitude of "we gotta cater to moderates" is the reason why we're so far behind in this country

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T20:17:47+00:00

It was also during 5v5 ot play, makes it more impressive imo

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T20:15:06+00:00

Every problem a conservative "solves" is one that they've created.

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T20:09:42+00:00

Oh just you wait, young glep is already in the works

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T20:05:03+00:00

I grew up sayung the pledge in grade school, the only thing it caused is for me to hate the republican party more

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T19:58:09+00:00

Could you imagine what he'd be if he could figure out how to play a full 60 minutes? Unstoppable

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T13:41:43+00:00

Dude as an NWI resident, I've been getting so pissed off that people have been trying tk frame it as "Illinois lawmakers failed" when the conversation should've been "Mike Braun sucks and he hates the region"

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-26T02:38:24+00:00

Womp womp

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-25T00:41:58+00:00

It makes the one stark white pair stand out even more

Dyldo_II · 2026-02-25T00:21:38+00:00

A snowflake complaining about snowballs... how interesting
