      And in one sentence you’ve completely encapsulated the reason why Nintendo is terrified of emulators.

        And they still remake the same handful of games every couple years. We JUST got a new Mario Party that looks identical to the previous two. The only different ones are probably Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

        I don’t think I’ll ever understand Nintendo fanboys that replay essentially the same shit with a slightly different skin on it.

          (for the switch)

          The first Mario Party felt like a scam. Such a rip-off.

          The 2nd Mario Party felt like what it should have been all along.

          The 3rd Mario Party should have been a free DLC for the 2nd game.

          Every single 3D Mario game has been a significant innovation over the previous one, except for Mario Galaxy 2

        If this was the reason then they’d be trying to sell us these old games again…but they’re not outside of their shitty subscription service that offers a few games that nobody wants.

      Plus, if you can get the right model, you can play PS2 and PS1 games on it. That’s a ridiculous library full of hidden gems.

        My launch day 60GB PS3 is still trucking along. Every few years I open it up, clean it out, and reapply thermal paste. It now has an SSD in it, and runs like a champ.
