I have this awesome mental picture of you standing up in court and saying "I give no fucks..."

Whatever it is, it's probably not that far from reality.

A heads up if you've neglected registering Club Nintendo games.

Also effective July 1st, the whole coin structure changes a little and is linked closer to the MSRP of a product. A $20 game Crush would be 20 coins, Mario 3D Land 40 coins and so on.

I just want to know what my platinum reward is.

some magic mushrooms. It an effort to be more green friendly, they're certified organic.

I've been on the fence about getting a 3DS for a while now and was basically waiting to see what happened with the XL if/when it arrived. That they've already announced the CPP for a system that's not even out yet (as Mzo pointed out, why didn't they just build it into the fucking system?!) is just another nail in the coffin for me. I think this is going to be the first time since I started playing games that I'm not going to have a Nintendo system of any kind for a while. The first-party games, while often excellent, just don't justify the increasing number of dubious, shitty decisions they've been making as of late. Sucks that I'll miss out on MegaTen IV!

Sony's been pretty sketchy with the Vita (those memory cards...), but at least it's a well-designed system with enough power to remain flexible for the foreseeable future. Assuming it doesn't continue to tank, anyway.

Now that there is a tutorial to make Nintendo Controller belt buckles? ;-P http://imgur.com/a/plyvr

All because it doesn't have a second analog stick?

Meh. I've been betting on Nintendo handhelds since the Game and Watch days.

Their consoles haven't performed that well in the past decade. But the DS I would go so far as to call my favorite system of the aughts.

All because it doesn't have a second stick, that it introduced as an addon, and which apparently is really good.

But instead they decided "Morons will pay for both again, it'll make us more money. Our fans are complete idiots hahahahaah do it."

Because you consumer whores let them get away with it.

You do a new iteration of hardware, and exclude something you added which had a nice increase in usability and playability in it? Then decide that you still want it, so you just turn it into an addon again?

I mean really?

[Yoshi]

And which the original version should have had, let alone all revisions.
