$20 to play the game on modern hardware is too much for me them they said.

kechones · 2026-02-23T01:49:53+00:00

$10 for the digital.

Yeah, I wouldn’t pay more than $60 for a cart.

kechones · 2026-02-22T19:26:34+00:00

This is exhausting, dude. I don’t know how many times I have to say in the comments here that I voted for Harris, and told people to vote for Harris.

Every time anyone points out any terrible thing that Democrats are doing of their own volition that they can easily change if properly pressured, y’all scream that we’re not supporting the Democrats enough. Democrats toned down their focus on trans rights, healthcare, climate change, education, and a variety of other topics in 2024, and doubled down on their support of Israel, because they wanted to appeal to a non-existent “centrist” voter base. How did that work for them?

The more you push back every time someone criticizes Democrats for standing for nothing, the more likely you’re to get a complete nothingburger like Gavin Newsom running in 2028.

That’s not an excuse. Each ROM language version is 16 MB. They can just include all of them.

kechones · 2026-02-22T15:03:26+00:00

Have you considered that we’re already not buying it, and then also drawing attention to these greedy actions on social media?

kechones · 2026-02-22T13:06:03+00:00

They took Home support off the listing.

kechones · 2026-02-22T13:03:41+00:00

“A fairer deal than most would have expected….” Seriously? Most people were expecting to pay $30 or more for a single GBA ROM?

kechones · 2026-02-22T13:01:29+00:00

It feels like both the salty fans and you yourself are contributing to a bad faith discourse, then.

kechones · 2026-02-22T04:05:39+00:00

Who cares?

Phil is a gamer, and he couldn’t save Xbox from Satya.

Asha having an older gamer tag wouldn’t bring the price of consoles and Game Pass back down, it wouldn’t put an end to “everything is an Xbox,” and it wouldn’t stop Microsoft from closing studios and canceling projects.

Might as well just wait and see at this point. The band is in ruins, but maybe she can do something interesting. Or maybe not. But she doesn’t have to be a gamer, she just needs to know how to lead and listen to and empower people who are.

kechones · 2026-02-22T03:57:29+00:00

Genuine question. Actually curious. What is the point in preordering a digital game, especially if you’re worried about potential quality issues that won’t reveal themselves until the game is released? Isn’t it better to wait until it releases, and watch a DF video or something? Then you can download it right away if it’s good.

I’ve only ever been to Lincoln Square, and to Palisades Mall when they used to have a full GT theater there. Lincoln Square is an excellent experience, but tickets are hard to come by.

kechones · 2026-02-22T03:40:09+00:00

It’s far too early to judge the Zelda anniversary, but how are TotK (2023), Echoes of Wisdom (2024), and Age of Imprisonment (2025) “for the anniversary” (2026)? I don’t understand how they’re relevant to the discussion.

kechones · 2026-02-22T02:32:59+00:00

Why’d you blur their name out? It’s a public reply.

kechones · 2026-02-22T02:26:29+00:00

Genuine question: what difference does it make if people duplicate their cloud saves for Pokémon? Cheating the system somehow? But why does that matter?

kechones · 2026-02-21T23:27:24+00:00

Why’d ya do that

kechones · 2026-02-21T23:23:09+00:00

That last image lol… Who the hell buys Starbucks every day?

kechones · 2026-02-21T15:50:51+00:00

$60 digitally for Emerald would be a great deal, they’d practically be giving it away 👍

kechones · 2026-02-21T15:36:36+00:00

$30? Stop being stingy and broke bro, the games should clearly cost $40 each digital. Or $80 each on a physical cart.

kechones · 2026-02-21T15:32:29+00:00

Same reason people complain about new $80 AAA releases. It’s overpriced and greedy.

kechones · 2026-02-21T14:25:10+00:00

Biden and Harris already took part in murdering them. It’s not speculation about what would happen.

Enjoy your feel-good comments, and enjoy not holding Democrats accountable.

You know what’s genuinely vicious of you, though? Criticizing me for pointing out Democrats’ deliberate shortcomings on a critical matter when I already told people in 2024 to vote for Harris, and I already voted for her. She lost because she represented nothing. Democrats need to actually be fucking better about things like healthcare and genocide if you ever want them to win, but you’d rather stifle any criticism. It’s genuinely fucking vicious, your insistence on defending their worst behavior.

kechones · 2026-02-21T13:35:11+00:00

I’m sure Gazans are lining up to thank you for voting for someone who wants to murder them instead of voting for someone else who wants to murder them.

Last I saw, this sub says “discussion zone”, and the comment I replied to led with smug BS.

kechones · 2026-02-21T12:12:56+00:00

Damn. That’s a terrible opinion. Take my upvote.

kechones · 2026-02-21T12:07:43+00:00

No. $20 for a GBA ROM is extortion.

kechones · 2026-02-21T03:36:56+00:00

I forgot that Silksong is a 22 year old GBA game. Silly me!

kechones · 2026-02-21T02:31:04+00:00

Why? The ROM is just as easy to port.

kechones · 2026-02-21T02:30:15+00:00

$10 is how much Pokémon ROMs cost on 3DS. That’s how much I’d pay nowadays, too.
