The nintendo switch still doesnt have a SINGLE console exclusive with at least an 86 metacritic rating. while i agree that metacritic isnt the be-all-end-all to not have a single title, let alone at least 5....

it's only title that is half decent is BOTW which runs better on a pc anyways (and it isnt even exclusive)

no one in their right mind thinks highly of the switch. technologically, it is a terrible piece of hardware with very little software for it

It is a console experience you can take portable. The fact it can't do 4K 60FPS or whatever means nothing if it means I can take a console type experience on a road trip.

Nobody is going to buy a Switch because it is on the cutting edge of technology in terms of performance. Nintendo hasn't been the leaders in performance tech for decades.

And why do you think that is? Maybe because nintendo makes a profit off their overpriced shit hardware instead of trying to sell software or gather 3rd party support?

nostalgia sells

I'm generally suspicious of people who listen to anime or game music unironically in their free time anyway.

What about dubstep and EDM? Closest to game music, that is.

And what suspicions?

For the most part (the overwhelming most part) game and anime music is just atmospheric background noise designed specifically to help evoke the emotion that the media is trying to portray. It was never supposed to be listened to on its own. That's why even with Academy Award winning orchestral scores (for example Lord of the Rings, anything John Williams) you get a grand swirling sound that crescendos and dissipates in less than 3 minutes, and flits around awkwardly in between, when really the grandiose theme in the piece should have been fleshed out over a good 15-20 minutes at the very least.

So I kind of have to wonder about people who just listen to anime and game music, because usually it means they don't listen to a lot of music at all and this is their main source of inspiration. There are some exceptions, sure. And I get that sometimes you just want to be reminded of the cool music that was in your favourite anime scene. But it's not the real deal.

And yes I'm aware I'm a bona fide pretentious fuck

you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about

Are you a fucking PSN spam bot?

Yes

How are you doing today? I just moved to virginia yesterday after living in cali my whole life (25 years)

it seems nice here, but why does everyone have glass in front of their front doors?

holy fucking sexual selection. that bitch is so neotenized it's mind boggling. her eyes are fucking gigantic, must have to do with a high concentration of estrogen during development of facial structure (it shrinks the skull making eyes look bigger)

she's a walking fetish gone too far, and her eyes are downright terrifying
