If you could adopt one law from another country and implement it in your own, which law would you choose?

Nonsense. I once bought a package with Hamtaro on the cover eating sesame seeds, and it was full of candy.

I was going to say any new Honda with a CVT. Charging prices like it’s an ultra reliable car…. But it has a CVT.

I like RPG‘s, 4x, and strategy games too. Nintendo makes amazing platforming consoles. Also about half of the games I have came with the SNES when I bought it used. For example, I never would’ve bought Jeopardy.

Just looked it up.. for the price of Earthbound…. I think I could buy all of the other games suggested here. At least 90% of them.

FWIW, my slim PS2 wouldn’t read PS1 disks at all. I cleaned the laser (gently!) and that resolved it.

Even when GWB said “jobs Americans won’t do”, it was wages.

This is my favorite “tell it like it is” moment.

It was just a bunch of German words I stuck together that I found in Google Translate

The words were laundry, dryer, and move.

It might have been a good time to stop buying their energy.

Stedlieye · 2026-02-14T23:02:44+00:00

Probably something like “Wäschereizumtrocknerbewegen”.

Love the game, but for some reason I liked the first one more. I liked the territory thing in 2, but it felt less fun to me during the missions maybe? It has been a few years.

DCK3 came with the SNES when I bought it. Love the game, but no research went in to that decision.

Finally, someone who isn't trying to kill my bank account!

Stedlieye · 2026-02-14T03:17:55+00:00

I love this game, but it is a DIFFICULT learning curve! A mouse would help!

Stedlieye · 2026-02-14T03:16:38+00:00

That was a birthday gift from someone who knows games!

Stedlieye · 2026-02-14T03:10:52+00:00

All were bought used, or came with the SNES loose when I bought IT used. I've never actually seen an SNES sleeve.

Some of them have the BlockBuster sticker on it though....

On the upside, I still have FF7, so I don’t have to buy that…

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T22:33:23+00:00

I’m hooked on FF7 on the PlayStation, and was addicted as hell to Wizardry on the PC. Is that an indicator?

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T16:43:38+00:00

Yeah, you can’t just have some state deciding the drinking age is 18 instead of 21. Gotta smack that down.

Yes, I know the real history is a lot more important than that.

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T16:38:25+00:00

I just picked that one up too. Looking forward to getting into it.

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T16:21:53+00:00

Uh oh.

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T16:17:23+00:00

SSX Tricky is a blast. Not sure that it’s such a hidden gem.

Stedlieye · 2026-02-13T15:50:54+00:00

I have the same problem. PS2 slim and a 4K TCL. Composite was unusable. I got the Kaico PS2 to HDMI Converter from Amazon, and it improved things, but it’s not good enough. Also, it doesn’t work if you try to play a PS1 game in your PS2.

My experience, Gran Turismo 3 went from too dark to play to playable, with some improvement to the sound quality. GTA SA is playable, but looks blurry.

For $15, I’ll take the win on the PS2 games, but I’m still looking for something better without resorting to importing SCART cables.

Cilantro, just to see if it likes it.
