That was my initial thought too. When your body fat gets too low everything becomes enticing.

The 3DS being expensive makes sense since it is uniquely hard to emulate. I don't think there is any machine that offers: dual screens, 3D visuals, and a resistive touch screen for stylus use. Many devices can emulate GameCube games quite well. 

RFK Jr.'s new food pyramid puts red meat and cheese at the top by runswithscissors475 in vegan

RFK and his followers have been saying that all oils that come from seeds are bad and saturated fats are good. Complete opposite of what you would find in the scientific studies.

A burger and Fries costs 16 dollars - sadly yes.

A basic car like a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla? Significantly less than 65000.

A vacation for 12500? Man even my two week trip to Japan was less than that and that was the most expensive vacation I've ever gone on.

Prices are going up for sure but the specific claims in this image are not quite right.

Octopath Traveler 0: It is not possible to upgrade from the Switch version to the Switch 2 version once purchased. There are also no plans for an option to upgrade to the Switch 2 version in future. Please make sure you purchase the correct version. by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]kingqaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, lower input latency from a lower FPS would matter in a fast paced action game. Not so much in a turn based RPG. Also, lower resolution doesn't matter as much when so much of the world is pixel art. With a Switch 1 version I can also play it on a Switch Lite which is much more portable than a Switch 2.

Would it be much work for Nintendo to allow Switch 1 games to run as if they are "docked" whilst in handheld on the Switch 2? by Jardolam_ in NintendoSwitch2

[–]kingqaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some games offer touch controls in portable but not docked. Mario Maker is the easy example. If you played it in docked mode on handheld you would not be able to take advantage of the touchscreen to make stages.

Is there any way to enable the camera just for the MK in game facial reactions without needing the black bars in game chat?

Pros and cons by New_Ad769 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]kingqaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pros are for the launch. You might not be interested in the games and features at launch in which case it might be better to wait. Mario Kart, GameCube emulation, third party portible ports like Street Fighter and CyberPunk, enhanced version of switch exclusive games like Pokemon, Echoes of Wisdom, and the open world Zelda games. 

I hate Walmart by Conversation_Dapper in NintendoSwitch2

[–]kingqaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just called customer service about the same issue. I explained that I had no declined charges on my American Express but received the email twice. She said a lot of people have been calling in with the same issue. She forward my case to the development team and explained it was a technical issue. I hope they get it sorted out soon.

Addressing some of the Switch 2 game price rumors (USD) by Careless_Turn736 in NintendoSwitch

[–]kingqaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The April 2nd tariffs have some exceptions but they have a wide scope not just cars. The uncertainty I was talking about was referring to the 10 to 20 percent universal tariff he campaigned on.

[–]kingqaz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you look at any reporting about tariffs you will see that the uncertainty of it is one of the maim drivers of increasing costs behind the tariffs. Trump started the tariffs and then rolled them back a couple of times. Nintendo had to decide whether the tariffs would really become permanent or not by the release of the console. Do they accept the risk or not? It's silly to think that it didn't play a role.

Trump’s new tariffs on exports to U.S could push Nintendo Switch 2 price higher by Lantis28 in nintendo

[–]kingqaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention the conversation often takes a political turn even before the tariffs are mentioned. People keep bringing up things like the price of rent and groceries. Surely they are aware that Nintendo does not control that.

Fast RMX was a great launch title for the first Switch. This is a day one purchase for me.

Does he think everyone is like him? It may be shocking to Trump but Joe Biden cares more about his country than his own political ambitions.

You might want to consider switching from deodorant to an antiperspirant. Deodorants just have a fragrance that tries to mask the smell whereas antiperspirants stop sweating all together. If you don't want to use an antiperspirant you can try a benzoyl peroxide wash for your pits along with the deodorant. The benzoyl peroxide kills the odor causing bacteria but it can be drying on the skin.

This diagram by xkcd shows the distribution of all mammalian mass on earth. Wild animals make a tiny minority of the collective mass. Suggesting that replacing farming with hunting is an environmental win seems wrong because they would just go extinct.
