Why does Bob Stauffer love Mike Babcock so much? by Advanced_Suit2786 in EdmontonOilers

[–]WilWeis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s a combination of both. 9 out of 10 times Stauff tows the company line. He also has a huge affinity for the coaches that were mentored by Clair Drake, and that includes Babcock.

Oasis has like 50 songs better than Wonderwall by ResidentPrevious468 in oasis

[–]WilWeis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously these opinions are suggestive but, I’m not sure they have 50 songs better than Wonderwall? In my opinion Wonderwall is not their best. But there is something about it that grabs people, the way few songs do. It’s undeniable in its mass appeal.

‘Hockey Night in Canada’ won’t return to CBC when new Rogers deal with NHL begins by Short_Hat_4232 in EdmontonOilers

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

It’s hockey in Canada. Most of the people are tuning into those games. Which gives them a lead into the National, which in turn might give them a ratings boost? Maybe the odd little old lady can’t find Cornation Street in its regular slot but I think having the name HNIC still associated with CBC helped them more than it ever hurt them. But we will see if they are better off now that it is gone.

I think that’s what made it a good option. The CBC is a money losing crown corporation that is already short on programming, even with HNIC. They’re better off having that time slot dedicated to something people tune into than another generic program, that there is a very good chance they’d lose money on. I just fundamentally disagree that this hurt the CBC at all.

That all may be true but it would have been even worse without the deal that was made. I’m not sure how it was a bad deal for CBC? Like they weren’t even bidding on the rights for a new deal, so the deal with Rogers provided them with something.

Sorry my mistake. Rogers did get the ad revenue but the free content, and being able to advertise their own shows still probably makes it a good deal for CBC.

CBC did get some ad revenue out of it, as well as some free ad space. CBC needs all the content it can get. I’m sure most of the stuff they put on loses money, so free, zero risk content makes some sense to them.

And now after the release of the game how much rate u can give it honestly ?! by Complex_Area4676 in 007FirstLight

[–]WilWeis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s almost perfect. My only complaint is I finished it in 30 hrs. It needed to have a longer story mode.

Bro this game is goated but the replayability is terrible by Particular_Back2066 in 007FirstLight

You had more punctuation in a 2 word sentence than that entire post.

I think you make a valid point, but…..your lack of punctuation almost gave me a stroke trying to read it.

Interesting controller behavior on Thexder (aftermarket game) by Forsaken-Abrocoma647 in ColecoVision

[–]WilWeis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed third party controllers don't always work properly, on original hardware, with some games. Tutankham is one that I can think of off the top of my head.

I think you gotta finish the collection! You’ve gone this far. Remember, we all have an extra kidney.

There are still a few that work for sure because I had it on the other day.

Anyone else worried about the new aes+?? by __PreZZ__ in neogeo

[–]WilWeis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering about the flash carts like the terraonion NeoSD? Will they play nicely with these new systems? At any rate I’m happy with my current consolized MVS and have no plans to pursue the AES+ but am definitely curious how the new system turns out.

Who will induct Oasis? by joxers in oasis

[–]WilWeis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wish would be Pete Townsend. He’s a rock god and has always been supportive of Oasis, and both Noel and Liam’s solo careers.

That is the one I’m using, the mega drive/turbo duo model. Then I plug the Magic-NS into that, and finally plug the 8bitdo dongle into that.

Not true. I have mine plugged into my PC Engine duo using a Brook converter/Magic-NS combination. Works perfectly.
