"I don't actually have a solid point, so instead I will deflect any dissent with my opinion by calling into question the integrity of the person making the argument."

And that's fine and good. My point is that "what about the servers" isn't an actual concern because the track record for keeping the servers up and accessible for the games you have purchased has been proven. And that is the only functional difference between GKC and a for real game card

"But," I hear you object "what about when the servers go down!?" The Wii came out in 2006. You can still download games you purchased on the Wii 20 years later. At this point the servers are going to last as long or longer than it takes for diskrot to set in.

Can your friends borrow a GKC from you? Can you sell a GKC to someone? Can you purchase a GKC secondhand? Yes, yes, and yes. So can we please stop pretending this is the same as a code in a box?

He's a multimillionaire who tried to play the system and lost twice over, not some poor innocent soul.

the willfulness with which he continued to operate despite being extended an offer (and accepting said offer) to just stop without having to pay any damages. He just lied and then they took him to court to force the issue. He went to prison for a separate criminal charge and was fined 4.5 mil

Bowser's a bad example. Nintendo was awarded $10mil in a civil case because it was commiserate with the level of profit Gary was making from his pirating business year over year and

James McCloud is the kind of man who takes on an 80 year debt. Odds are he just didn't know any other good engineers and needed someone on the team who could maintenance the massive investment he just made.

I mean, at least James had actual crippling debt instead of buying the Great Fox for two hay pennies and mowed lawn then wondering why kids these days can't just do the same.

James put *two* families in debt. Peppy, who has a wife and daughter, is co-owner of the team. He had to work the 5 years between James dying and Fox taking over solo.

The idiom refers to the camel carrying a bunch of very heavy things and it being a straw that ticked it over to being too much, despite the fact a single straw is incredibly light. The straw seems like a small thing until you consider all the other weight being carried.

Love my city. Of course, I'm gonna go right back to complaining about the occasional random burst of weed funk as soon as it's no longer a point of pride. But for now: Love my city.

I'm not going to specify across which fandom's bow this is a shot (as, honestly, there won't be many stones cast if we're looking for who's without sin here), but: There's a reason that PR firms exist and famous folks kept distance between themselves and their fans: Familiarity breeds entitlement.

Ultimately, I decided to start a bigger, more organized project and so moved all of my 5x5s and thensome here

Thank you. I'll go ahead and post a few more. Honestly, I should make an account for my Switch 2 images and gameplay like I used to have elsewhere

Chicken burger. Sorry to intrude upon your comment as some sort of mysterious phantom American posting food pictures.

They brought back Hara Kiri?

As someone who writes the stuff, I'm sure you don't get a lot of say on the headlines, but isn't this an issue that framing fixes? "Feeling good" isn't the only attention grabber, right? Pissing people off works too, yes? Seems to me this is a failure to properly piss people off in the headline.

I blame all of you for this. You should have bought Star Fox Assault.
