No they don’t. They said 7+ years.

They have to drop the Switch 2 at some point in the PS5/Scarlett’s lifespan. If they hold off on the Switch 2 for so long that we start seeing the PS6 and Xbox after that, they’ll just be too behind in the hardware game that third party ports will be too difficult to develop.
It’s not like they’re a stranger to this phenomenon. I thought they didn’t care.

When I was a kid I used to sleep with a heavy rock under my pillow, so if anyone tried to break in I could chuck the rock at them.

I was a dumb kid.
It’s not called being dumb, it’s called being prepared.

I can't get over the first four episodes. Those four were really boring for me. Ep 5 is where I started being engaged. And the first four were a *big* slog when I first watched it.

And the plot pacing is good overall, but it didn't grab me immediately. A tier.

@Taylor F FMA Brotherhood is the best rated anime of all time on MAL. That's a popular opinion actually.

Edit: Apparently it got bumped down to 6th. W/E, still very beloved.
How is that unpopular? It's the highest rated anime on IMDB.
ok but in what world is FMA:B being #1 the unpopular opinion
wait, it is?

Good.

I caught a bunch of Ralts today in Pokemon Go. Enough to get both Gardevoir and Gallade. I also got three shiny Ralts!

But the real treasure here is my almost flawless, big girl Gardevoir, standing at 7 foot and weighing in at 270+ lbs. Very happy about her.

Whether it's mainstream or not, it can be good. Quality isn't defined by popularity 100%. If a show is popular, it's *probably* good, or even great. But it doesn't depend on it completely. Popularity is rather a result of quality, at least to some degree.
I didn't say that being mainstream was a bad thing.

Hell, my top 5 consists of the three shows I've already mentioned plus Gurren Lagann and Cowboy Bebop.

I think Dr. Mario should have a unique everything. He's the Melee veteran I'd further de-clone the most.
I do wish his moveset had at least one reference to viruses.

Alright. It just came off as negative. Reading into things a little too much; my b.

Not to that extent. Currently they’re one generation behind in terms of specs, with the Switch being a bit more powerful than PS3 and 360. Due to the success of the Switch and it’s install base of actual gamers who want to play the new and big games, many devs will put in the extra effort to downgrade their games to get them running on Switch.

In about a little over a year’s time, when the Switch is halfway through it’s lifespan, the PS5 and Scarlett will come out, and Nintendo will be two generations behind in specs. I’m a bit concerned for this period, since it’ll be noticeably harder to take games built for PS5/Scarlett levels of power and downgrade them to PS3/360 levels of power, but I’m hopeful that it will still happen due to the Switch’s install base.

I do think there will be a decline in current big games coming to Switch after next year due to it just being more difficult to downgrade games that much. I think this will be the main factor in Nintendo releasing a Switch 2, with the power of a PS4/XBO, a few years into next gen.

As long as you have lost of owners with money, devs will bring there games down a bit to sell them on the platform. Bringing as many next gen games down two gens may be too expensive and time consuming, or maybe even near impossible for some. They have to move on eventually.

MY answer is simpler. Just toss a tiny pebble and their heads will explode....

......well, that assumes you have the arm strength of a Yoshi

I sure love worrying about buying the characters even though I already paid fighter's pass.

We're on game 2 of Grand Finals at DBFZ and my heart is already pumping.
THIS is what hype truly looks like.

You bring up a good point I didn't even think about with the porting process, although 3DS would still get ports of PS4 and XBO games on occasion. I'm sure they will have less of a disparity than say, the Wii-U era due to the install base actually existing beyond the most hardcore Nintendo fans.

But I'm pretty sure the next set of consoles are based more on performance changes rather than major graphical upgrades. We'll see how this shift in console development, and potential game development will effect the Switch for the rest of its lifespan. If performance improvements are the major factor of these new consoles(which both Sony and MS talked about with removing load times, rather than dapping up graphics again), then how games are made around that might not change porting too drastically. Of course if this means a game like DMCV or Spider-Man can then just pull Legendary Dark Knight levels of enemies/objects on screen in at a constant 60fps and no loading, then a Switch version of game of that style would likely lose features like that.

And now Go1 and SonicFox are 2-2. If Go1 wins one more time, he'll close it, but SonicFox can still reset the fight.

Goichi I'm pretty sure is Goku's 3rd child. Holy ****. He's Son Goichi now. Now THAT'S an anime arc. You like to see it.

EDIT: Also 100k views on Twitch on a Saturday instead Finals Sunday? We're really going FURTHER BEYOND!

Stop talking about pizza, I've gone six weeks on ketosis and I haven't had it in forever.

But I look sexy as hell at least. That's what matters.
