I’ve got the 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth and it’s great. I finally upgraded to it from my old Xbox 360 wired controller. I would say it’s a worthy successor. I assume the wired versions are solid too.

Yeah this whole defending cheap foreign labor thing feels kind of weird to me. I might just be showing my ignorance here, but isn’t the end-game for globalization about raising living standards around the world? By trading with developing countries, the investment develops their middle class and eventually their wages should catch up with ours.

It feels weird to see people saying that so much of the American economy is suddenly unviable when we have to pay livable wages. If that’s the case, that’s a bad thing, and it should change. Not that I think these tariffs are the solution.

I agree, sales are constant (at least on PC) so I almost never even paid the $60 price tag. They can keep cranking up the prices but more and more people may just wait for sales. I know Nintendo games don’t go on sale very often but that makes the ecosystem even less attractive. $450 is in the range of a Steam deck.

Inflation or not, prices can only go up if the market will support them. If people are unable (or unwilling) to pay the higher prices, then prices basically can’t go up.

One of the things I really like about the Switch is that I can actually buy a whole physical game that doesn’t need an Internet connection. Sure, I have to check a website first, but I can at least curate my wishlist with games that are complete on cart.

At least them giving it a new name makes choosing games easier, I guess.

Yeah it sounds like a lot of people were hoping they would buff defense options. They gave a slight buff to sidestepping and then proceeded to buff offense even more.

Burnout 3 on PC would be a dream. It’s one of the reasons I still keep my 360 around.
