Pankapu looks interesting. Please let us know your thoughts once you’re finished.

This will likely become the norm for videos in the future. The sadder part is they will become better and better until it’s no longer noticeable.

I think many people ended up just using the pause menu grid as well.

It really isn’t as big of an issue in the large scheme. As others pointed out the instance Admins can give you control. I myself have taken two that were abandoned. Maybe having this information front and center may help with awareness. I didn’t know it was even an option until someone told me. I was stuck in my reddit ways and assumed I needed to start a new community.

Very likely because only rich people would have been able to afford these back then.

I think we all agree these Zelda inventory lists are getting too long.

Oh yeah, though I am glad he put effort into it, given how controversial this Nintendo lawsuit has gotten. It’s helped put it into perspective for me.

I blocked a lot of news communities, because it was just consuming my feed, so I also missed when this happened.

Isn’t that kind of how I ended my whole comment?

[–] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Using askjeeves was probably one of my earliest memories.

 

This video came up in a comment by @UnbrokenTaco@lemm.ee and I thought the video was really informative on the Palworld situation going on.

[–] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

This was really revealing. I didn’t know Palworld was now Sony’s. It basically now makes this Nintendo Vs Sony.

I think you’re forgetting the thing that is also stopping me from doing a lot of random ideas myself. It’s an extra thing to carry.

I often think “man it would be great to use my sp again”, but I can just emulate on delta on my iPhone. It’s the reason I don’t have the PlayDate and why I also don’t have a dumbphone connected to my iPhone even though I’ve thought about it as well. People want to reduce instead of adding more. It’s the reason it still drives me crazy I have 5 remotes for my TV. People just prefer to get a device that can do the most. Hell my parents in their older age are now to the point they don’t care about PCs anymore, they just have a tablet they can add a keyboard to if they want.

All this is not to say this shouldn’t exist. But if it does I really do hope they take full advantage of the setup and do try to innovate and make creative games that would only exist there.

The endless button mash games are not my favorite, but I want to play all Zelda games. I had trouble getting through the first warriors game and for sure did not bother unlocking all the extra characters.

Would be amazing to own one of these.

 

I am almost done with Echoes of Wisdom and thought the map was the perfect size for the game. I always felt like Breath of the Wild’s map was too large for what was offered. Tears of the Kingdom kind of made that worse by doubling the map underneath and having it mostly be empty.

 

This is from a few years ago, but I just stumbled upon it. It was a very fascinating read on the development of Pokémon and their different types. The changes that happen during a game’s development are really interesting.

 

A bit earlier than the typical time frame of the general things we post, but I feel like this still captures the feel.

From @Retromotive on Instagram

It's 1955, Italy is trying to find its feet after the war, and Bianchi, the bicycle brand, decides it wants to make cars again. But they don't just go at it alone— they team up with the likes of Fiat and Pirelli. The result? Autobianchi. The company that tried to blend engineering genius, design flair, and a bit of cheeky Italian spirit into a single, tiny vehicle.

Fast forward to 1969, and out pops the Autobianchi A112 Giovani-a car that was as light as a feather, funky as a beach party, and just one letter shy of being called Giovanni. Designed by Pininfarina and powered by an Abarth engine, this 'youth' car was a curious concoction of plastic bumpers, boat-like seats, and a style that screamed, "I'm here for a good time, not a long time!"

And then... it vanished! Poof! No production, no legacy-just one prototype gathering dust in a private collection. Why? Who knows! Maybe it was too radical for its own good, or maybe Italians just thought they'd outgrown their beach buggy days.
