So they didn’t say it’s an opinion. Cool.

No. We played “wait and see” 2016-2020. We know how this shit is going down.

Exclusivity in general (not always) is a mistake. Sony has been learning this with the money they’re raking in doing PC ports finally, and Microsoft is learning it when they realize that going exclusive while also offering Game Pass cannibalizes direct sales beyond an acceptable amount (HFR, Indiana Jones). Nintendo only gets away with it because of their tight control of their IP’s and complete refusal to port to virtually anything. They barely even port their old back catalog to their current hardware. If you try to do a middle ground you often end up with the worst of both worlds.

They need to open up pretty substantially or lock it down completely, though the latter requires you to have a very strong exclusive catalog which Sony and Microsoft do not have right now compared to Nintendo.

Another good example is the Wii U. The catalog on that console is actually pretty thin compared to Wii and Switch, and it suffered for it. People try to explain it with vague statements about how folks didn’t understand what it was or whatever, and I’m sure that contributed, but it took them several years to get any games of note off the ground which meant there was no reason to buy one.

If directed at me I’m very curious where you got the impression that they said it was their opinion considering they literally said “Neurotypical people are more morally flexible” and at no point in their comment indicated this was an opinion.

Here’s an opinion: it’s generally good to read a comment in it’s entirety before fighting other people‘s battles and being a useless contrarian.

“Indie” is a very nebulous term regardless of the medium. “Indie rock” is a sound now. “Indie movie” is a style/genre now. “Indie game” is definitely a style.

That’s a rather uncharitable, and frankly conspiratorial, way of viewing things lol

Fuck off I have kids, lived in the 90’s, and even I recognize Christmas vacation. Haven’t seen it in its entirety, but I am familiar with it as a cultural touchstone and seen chunks over the years because it was a common rerun. Hence why most people get this meme.

It’s not a crime to not recognize a movie but don’t throw down “as a PARENT I am too BUSY to watch movies” while you indignantly post on a niche web forum about how “you were there so you know” as if that is any more valid than an out context meme.

Firmware sideloading is something even canon couldn’t stop (“magic lantern”). As long as they aren’t using proprietary info/code they’re fine
