Looks like Nvidia really messed up with this whole DLSS 5 garbage. You don't ever piss off the people who make the games. Source: insider-gaming.com/dlss-5-gamer...

A lot of focus on character models but even in environments DLSS 5 just kills the art design.

If this is correct, which I highly doubt, then the break even number(cost$340 + loss$160) would be about $500. That would mean that the $450 US Switch 2 is also losing about $50 and the MKW bundle is break even if you don't acount for the lost profits from the game. No way this number is right.

Mad respect for Brussels sprouts now that I know they grew on a stem like this

I have begun the sauerkraut making process. Having homemade sauerkraut for New Year’s Day is a must!

NINTENDO. NINTENDO. PLEASE LET SAKURAI MAKE GAMES THAT ARENT SMASH MORE OFTEN. WHAT THE FUCK AIR RIDERS IS SO GOOD

Sometimes I hate myself for the kind of gameplay ideas I have, coding this tumbling block physics with the screws was SOO hard But I'm happy that the block puzzles are getting more varied and better integrated with the platforming, pacing and all (game is ABYSS X ZERO, btw) #gamedev #lowpoly #axz

stop-calling-your-art-CONTENT!!!!! 💢

Interesting for Nintendo to say that acquisitions are part of their growth strategy since they've been saying that they prefer organic growth until now. Still I imagine they don't have anything big in mind. Probably looking at some of their existing close partners like HAL and Intelligent Systems.

Also note it is canon that Pikmin “cannot be seen with the naked eye”, as stated on the official Pikmin Bloom site. Sources: www.nintendo.com/jp/interview... www.pikminbloom.com#whats-pikmin... 2/

In Pikmin 4 Ask the Developer, Miyamoto-san literally said: “ピクミンは、あなたの近くにいるよ” → Pikmin are close to you (The official English transcript is “Pikmin are all around us” instead, because they translated it idiomatically instead of literally.) 1/

Last time Nintendo uploaded a trailer with no context we got Emio so I'm excited to see what this will be. Especially since this is obviously something Pikmin related.

Some day Nintendo fans will understand that Nintendo treats its universes as piles of beloved music and iconography to be remixed and recontextualized into fun new games and not an interconnected linear narrative linked by causality But it is not this day

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice. Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT." IT IS ART. YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

I'm not at all surprised that Yacht Club was able to get Switch 2 dev kits but I do wonder how it benefits a game like Mina The Hollower. Doesn't seem like a game that needs it.

Dear me, I was… launches July 31 Interactive adventure game Dear me, I was... will launch for Switch 2 via Nintendo eShop on July 31 for 850 yen, Arc System Works announced. It will support English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese…

My town sounds like it’s in the middle of a war zone. I feel really bad for emergency room workers all across the US tonight…

worth pointing out that game devs at xbox are some of the very few people at microsoft engaged in work that people actually want. no one wants copilot. no one wants to rely on windows anymore. no one wants teams and no one wants drone targeting AI. but i do want pentiment

15 years of Xenoblade Chronicles!

Sony keeps chasing the live service trend Xbox keeps pushing subscriptions But Nintendo knows where the real money is - virtual idols

I was hoping for a June Direct but seems pretty clear now that we're getting a Nintendo Today Direct. Splatoon 3 ver. 10.0/Raiders announcment and now a Donkey Kong Direct both announced in Nintendo Today. I honestly expect a few more Nintendo Today announcments thoughout the month now.

doodle. write poems you never show anyone. make banana bread. take pictures of birds. grow a plant. the goal isn’t to build job skills or “become a creative” it’s to just fool around and experience yourself and the world around you

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

$10 less then it launched on other platforms and includes the season pass. A surprisingly a decent offer tbh

Well, that was a dream come true. Knew it wouldn't last, though. Out of a job at the moment. But I'll always be doing patreon.com/gamemess

It costs a pretty paltry annual sum to support the Game Preservation Society, which has been doing the heavy lifting of safeguarding Japan's game history. It's a shame they're in such dire straits, so if you've got the ability to help support I highly recommend it.
