Same here. $630CAD, $442US. I'm sorry, but there's no way I'm paying close to that, Nintendo.

Meanwhile, I'm considering the in-world social ramifications of doing a sneak attack on a trainer's Pokémon. Seems like a real scummy move...

Chucklefish were the (former) publishers of stardew valley. Perhaps that's where the confusion came from.

The two locations you mentioned are basically where I try to see all of my movies. Love both these theatres. I've seen a lot of classic movies I've missed or just really like at Carlton, and nothing beats the seats at Market Square. Plus their prices are much better than the others, especially on Tuesday.

They do kinda owe people something - at least those that contributed to the funding of the first game. Silksong was originally a 2nd playable character that was unlocked as a reward from the Kickstarter for Hollow Knight. Then it turned into a DLC, and now it's turned into a full game.

Until Sword and Shield, the games weren't known to be ugly, buggy messes. People have, and continue to, praise the 2D pixel art of previous generations. Sun and Moon is an odd middle ground as some people started to not like the 3D direction, but thought it'd improve on a more powerful console, like the Switch. I don't think it's correct saying this is a staple of pokemon games. It's a staple of modern pokemon games, which I absolutely disagree about the last 2 entries being the best. Far from it.

I know Retroid are kind of the more "affordable" option, but after my RP3+ broke from just regular use and cheap parts, and them not helping me because of discontinued support for the device, I don't really want to spend more money on them. At this point I'd probably rather save for a steamdeck, despite it being huge and clunky. Retroids recent items are just ugly as well, IMO.

Interesting! I played it for the first time recently and think it didn't really hold up in the slightest. I could understand why at the time it excelled, but playing it now was a chore for me. What's it doing for you that is really grabbing you?

The Golden Sun series. Again. Last month I was playing the Dragon Quest 3 remake, but got to a part where the bosses and enemies drastically ramped up in difficulty which really out me off of it. I'll return to it a bit later, probably. Still a really fun game.

I'm still meaning to try any of the silent hill games, but I've played both the original RE4 and the new remake multiple times each. I think they're both fantastic.

I've been wondering this exact thing lately. I've got a retro handheld that is breaking because the company seems to have used cheap parts internally, and they no longer support repairs or selling the parts. After only a year of owning it, I feel pretty annoyed, so started looking at alternatives. Steam deck was one I was considering, but the price point means I'll need to save for a while.

Only because the province got involved. Clearly, city bike lanes are a provincial issue.
