This guy knows the truth.

Still Ganon's second weakness though :V
Pineapple pizza was blessed by the goddesses.

You should all feel grateful such a holy recipe was passed down through the generations. Now eat your Pizza of Evil's Bane.

Holy ****

he last summer of the 20th Century. That day, the human beings learn that they are not the only ruler of the planet Earth.

The appearance of the giant living creatures “Kaiju's” and the ultimate existence that destroys all monsters: Godzilla. Through the battle against kaiju’s that lasted for half a century, human beings has experienced continuous defeat, and finally plans to escape from the Earth. And in 2048, only those who were selected by the A.I. managed under the central government boarded the inter-sidereal emigrant spaceship “Aratrum” to head for “Tau Cetus e”, the planet beyond the distance of 11.9 light-year. However, the environmental condition differences between that of the Earth and Tau e, which they finally arrived after 20 years were far beyond the predicted numbers, and was not an environment considered to be habitable by human beings.
The young man on the emigrant ship: Haruo, who saw his parents killed by Godzilla in front of his eyes when he was 4 years old, had only one thing in his mind for 20 years: to return to the Earth and defeat Godzilla. Shut out from the possibility of emigration, as the living environment in the ship deteriorates, the group of “Earth Returnists” led by Haruo became the majority, and determines to head back to Earth through a dangerous long-distance hyperspace navigation.
However, the Earth they have returned has already passed the time of 20,000 years, and has become an unknown world with the ecosystem reigned by Godzilla.
At the end, will human beings win back the Earth? And what will Haruo see beyond his fate…?
Awesome.

.....but when will see Godzilla himself? :p

Well he ordered it that way since it doesn't come like that normally. So if you wanna try that I'm sure some pizza place allows you to make your own pizzas.
I think Papa Johns and Pizza Hut both let you do that if you order online if anyone needs a place.

Frankly it's the olives off of the described article that are making me feel queasy rather than the pineapple, LOL.

New trailer for Attack on Titan Season 2 has just been released for those that are interested.


Still looks really hype. Hard to believe the fun begins a week from now.

And the new opening sounds pretty good! Linked Horizon never disappoints.

Also, is it just me or do I hear Joji Nakata, the voice of Kotomine Kirei from the Fate series, voicing that Ape Titan? Either way, they chose a fitting voice for it.

Olives and pineapple are the only things that should never be on pizza.

Which is exactly the pizza my brother made.
Pineapples and...olives?

I'm a huge supporter of Hawaiian Pizza, but damn it, it's pineapple and ham. Olives don't go with pineapples.

This is the pizza equivalent to biting into a cookie and finding out it's oatmeal raisin.
I love oatmeal raisin. D:

OK, so, I just got done binge-watching Iron Fist... I have quite a few things to say about it.

First off, the show has problems the story is kinda wack, and not in the good way usually present with Iron Fist. Some of it just don't make sense. That doesn't mean it's bad. There are a LOT of loose ends a product of The Defenders and a inevitable Season 2 in the future and that's where the main problem lies. The action sequences are nothing special, not as good as Daredevil but certainly better than Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. It's not as drama heavy and intriguing as those two shows and it isn't as action packed and brutal as Daredevil and sure as hell isn't as well choreographed. Oddly enough, just as I speculated and opposite of previous Marvel Netflix shows it really picks up in its second half.

The thing about Iron Fist is that it falls in between the established Marvel Netflix shows and thus it can't compare to any of them. It tries to keep up with the action of the Daredevil show but can't quite match its martial arts choreography. It's drama falls absolutely flat. Non of the characters are all that intriguing including, regrettably, Danny Rand himself. But like I said it does get better as the show goes on. What the show does well is its atmosphere. If it would have focused more on the world and mythology of Iron First it could have been better.

Let's talk about the race controversy. It's bull****. Finn Jones does a fine job with what he's given but like I said the drama falls absolutely flat. There's not much Finn could've done with the script he was given. Iron Fist was Caucasian in the comics so I'm still baffled by the white-washing controversy that floated around. Even still Finn does a fine job.

All in all. The show is fine. It's fun to watch but slow to get started, not as slow as Luke Cage, but slow nontheless. The show will definitely get better with its second season. I'd give at a 7/10 if I had to rate it. Either way if you're a fan of Marvel it's still a decent show that's a good timewaster or background show to watch. If you're an Iron Fist fan you'll definitely love it. Looking forward to what they do with him in The Defenders and am cautiously optimistic about The Inhumans which will share a showrunner with Iron Fist.

tl;dr The Reviews are blown a little out of proportion. The show is fun but nothing spectacular. It picks up in its second half, and its world building is perfect. It's worth a watch if you got the time or are a fan of the shows or character. Otherwise, not a necessity. Though, I don't consider Luke Cage a necessity either. I actually enjoyed Iron Fist more than Luke Cage but that's just personal preference.

Even though I don't plan to get MineCraft Story Mode, I worry if this is going to be the case for other third-party games. Though if we're lucky this will hopefully be the only time such an occurrence in price differences like this will occur.

It already happened with Rime and Puyo Puyo Tetris. It's likely to be a running theme for a bit.

If we're fortunate, the costs may go down over time if Switch platform adoption becomes widespread enough that developers are willing to find some way to offset, or eat, the additional manufacturing costs. Digital-only releases seem less likely to suffer from it since they don't have to deal with the cart costs.

Swamp Sensei Swamp Sensei 's linked article links to another one on the matter, by Eurogamer, that's pretty good additional reading:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-03-10-why-nintendo-switch-games-are-ending-up-more-expensive

You both are part of the problem.

:p
Ditto, I suppose.

It's fine. I've already been damned a few times this week, I'll take another.

It's actually not deleted. Still there on their page so I think Twitter glitched out.

I just thought the timing was hilarious.

For what it's worth, if Monster Boy gets enough support to get a physical release, they've stated they won't charge extra compared to other consoles for it.

Also Rime did have a middleman to pay for to port it on top of everything else, that could hypothetically bode badly for Sonic Mania if SEGA doesn't eat the cost but not really anyone else if that's what pushed it over the edge.

Geez, and people think Nintendo is the reason why 3rd Party doesn't do well on Nintendo. :facepalm:
its like the companys are thinking "They are nintendo fans, they wont notice a difference if the price is higher"
Third-parties aren't just like "lol let's make the Switch version more expensive cuz itd be funny, dum Nintendo fans dur hur", it does cost more to make the cartridges than the discs. And Nintendo's policy is games have to be a uniform price on their systems, so the digital version can't reflect the cheaper cost of production.

It is due to Nintendo.

God is it 1997 up in here?

edit: already been covered but still.

Watched most of the MHA dub(only missing ep13), it's really good and some of the voices give out a different feel compared to the Japanese ones but they all still fit.
Some small changes in dialogue also help like in the first episode where Deku says Kamui's Woods name from the start instead of acting like he doesn't know who it is.
Others I feel that weren't that great, in this case with All Might's entrance in his first class.
"I'm coming in like a super hero!" doesn't have the same ironic and humorous sense that "I'm entering like a completely normal person!" has with his over-the-top entrance.

Technically it is for designing cartridges that are more expensive to produce

So why is it that some games are the same price across all platforms?

Including indie titles.

Some publishers decide to absorb the costs, some believe the profit will outweigh the extra costs, and some don't.

Also if the title is just digital there's no need to be upping it for physical production costs.

I'm referring to physical games.

Still, is the cost THAT high?
