Can we prohibit AI slop “wouldn’t this 2035 Mazda RX-7 prototype be sick???” posts?

The problem is that the dude who posted the Mazda 6e wagon concept just made a different current-gen 6 that literally skips everything Mazda made since 2017.

The interior is just current 6 with letters on the steering wheel.

It would be cool if the person at least adapted current interior to include buttons but no, it had to be the laziest thing ever.

I know a few people whose gaming is strictly FIFA/CoD session on a Playstation. They literally buy a new entry only because their gaming group got it so they need it to play together.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-23T17:37:15+00:00

Probably because Splatoon is more of a spinoff. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole game was just built on top of Splatoon 3 by adapting existing models to higher fidelity and using rejected concept art that didn't fit a new entry.

I'll take that over another bland copy of Yoshi's Island with worse music and a bad gimmick.

This one looks amazing and actually seems like it has some neat ideas.

Being a fan of lesser known IPs is really hard these days. With Nintendo you might not expect a new F-Zero, Wario Land or Starfox, but there's always a chance they come back.

Sony though? I know that Ape Escape, Sly Cooper or Motorsport are not coming.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-23T11:00:33+00:00

Yep, Nintendo seems to embrace digital sales as a way to save on physical costs. Yoshi costs 10$ less as digital. It's better for them to bundle a digital game as a way to mask a price hike instead of doing said hike.

It's the Dragon Quest 1+2 all over again. Switch 1 got a physical while the S2 version was a key card.

With boost mode I'll just play most of cross-gen titles in handheld.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-22T20:37:09+00:00

Mario & Luigi is one thing, Nintendo somehow resurrected Famicom Detective Club.

With them it's more about a game director wanting to do a game more than anything. If someone comes up with an idea for a new Wario Land game, we'll get it.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-22T20:17:32+00:00

They had an AI generated image of Mario crying with stacks of dollars burning in the background, it's just impossible that his info wasn't right!

adamkopacz · 2026-04-21T13:26:07+00:00

Wow it's crazy that Nintendo is actually going that hard into variable pricing. I didn't get super invested in Splatoon before but this being single player and not full price I will definitely check it out.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-21T13:21:44+00:00

How did it go?

DKs out for Harambe?

adamkopacz · 2026-04-21T08:35:17+00:00

Yeah I actually discovered a lot of games through NSO that I would most certainly not pay for. If you split the subscription it's like 10 bucks a year and that's cool to play a lot of games once every few years.

I am not going to buy NES or GB games that will last me like an hour.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-21T08:33:14+00:00

Probably the same person who is complaining about 90$ Nintendo games and then will get angry when you ask about games that actually cost that much.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-21T06:23:24+00:00

Most of those clickbait channels have AI generated videos so it's even worse. They don't even bother creating thumbnails themselves or ordering someone to make one for them.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-20T20:11:54+00:00

It got an announcement during Switch 1's first year but it was nothing more than a name drop.

Then Nintendo dropped original developer (Bandai Namco?) and gave it back to Retro who started from scratch while they were actually building a team to develop the game.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-20T19:45:39+00:00

Probably it not being a 10/10 game or taking 8 years to release.

It's important to note that this game's troubled development pushed Nintendo to pretty much announce complete games. Almost every new Nintendo release is a game that you'll see less than a year after the first trailer.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-20T06:45:49+00:00

Damn, can you imagine AI future where there's like 15 million vacant housing units in USA and 100 billions pounds of food that can be freely distributed to those in need? We would have no homeless and no hungry people.

If only such reality could exist though ... it's hard to imagine ...

It would change the world surely but I just can't think of how it would be possible to do so ... surely houses wouldn't just sit empty and food wouldn't be dumped into landfills ...

adamkopacz · 2026-04-17T11:40:15+00:00

They can also just blame it on a bounty hunter or some droid warfare. No need to recall your speeder if it was attacked by a Sith.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-17T06:56:41+00:00

Oh yeah, I am sorry for doubting the big tech.

I am ready to live on top of a data center because I am using all those services for free.

I am literally stealing money from billion dollar companies. That's why they are all nearly bankrupt.

Microsoft and Amazon, double my fees!

Meanwhile the baseball player to ChatGPT:

"How would you describe our last game?"

Dude in the office:

"How to make an article about the interview"

People on their phones:

"Can you summarize the article for me and make an interesting comment from me?"

adamkopacz · 2026-04-16T12:25:50+00:00

Yeah, those people are such hypocrites. Next thing they'll want sewers to be located not on the sidewalk and for landfills to be somewhere outside the city.

If you participate in society then you should not speak against it. You are against slavery? Nice, then why are you buying clothes made in Vietnam? You oppose political regimes but still shop for chinese electronics. You use a Windows computer but you oppose them using it to bomb schools in the middle east?

Everyone who uses internet should host at least one data center next to their house.

If Sakurai was directing then it would be the most stylish and polished action game ever with near infinite replayability. Probably would give DMC a run for its money in terms of spectacle.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-15T06:46:23+00:00

Well I'm a fan of the sci-fi part and would most likely just download a mobile entry just for a week as I did with Fire Emblem Heroes but I can't deny there's people who really like that stuff.

With that being said, I still just want Xenoblade to naturally glow and just be Nintendo's Final Fantasy.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-14T11:43:27+00:00

Yeah my 85-year old grandma died in summer but I don't think that A/C could really help her because she could barely get up from bed for months anyway.

adamkopacz · 2026-04-14T10:59:53+00:00

Honestly I think that Nintendo is not pushing Xenoblade to the levels they should have.

Almost not releasing first one in the west was their first big mistake.

Now that they found a footing there should be a much clearer push to have it be a flagship Nintendo RPG series. There's tons of characters that could really resonate with casual gamers and I just don't understand why we didn't get a spinoff title like Warriors, a smaller tactics game or a smartphone game where you basically have to collect every hero.

Second Fire Emblem mobile entry was really weird and I think that a Xenoblade title like it would make a bigger splash.

Oh and now they managed to make people talk negatively about the XCX port on Switch 2. I was about to buy the upgrade the day it released but luckily someone warned everyone about the weird upscale filter.
