The "incoherent rambling" trait seems to have been a strong, impressible, theme as well.

Every time I hear about them, I am always glad I don't follow the "youtuber" crowd. Regardless of their fanbase, general topics, etc. Every time.

Nintendo / Re: Nintendo Switch

I align myself with Olimar's stance, particularly on the pathetic "portable" aspect.

Rather than push for a solid portable system, with similar ease-of-use, longevity, and compromises as 3DS, they pushed for this "all-in-one", which sacrifices on performance tremendously to put in an outdated Tegra SoC (because they couldn't wait any longer to rid themselves of the Wii U trash heap I suppose)

Nintendo will never see large 3rd party support, whether it's just the same multiplatforms or exclusive content, unless they can really push their marketshare higher. They are not doing a damn thing to move in that direction. It's honestly uncertain what audience they're targeting with this console. Fanboys will always buy it obviously, but that's really all they're getting here.

Casual market? This lacks all of the notability, ease-of-use, library/support base of iOS devices, which is honestly the performance tier and market they're competing in at this point.

Hardcore gaming market? Nobody beyond the most dedicated of Zelda fans is going to even consider this when they, as Olimar said, can play nearly every other title mentioned on Steam. Plus, half of the Nintendo titles in the next year will just be ports/adaptations of Wii U titles, which will be going on clearance at a great price.

I would say I was disappointed, but honestly it's exactly what I expected. Nintendo is just hilariously out of touch with the market.

I'll probably just get the Zelda Master Edition and put it in a closet until the switch is in a bargain bin (or Nintendo fires and rehires everyone).

1) Nobody on nsm claims copyright for their work, whether or not that is legitimate under derivative works
2) There is no public statement on nsm asking for credit to be given, regardless of how "common sense" you think that may be. There probably should be.
3) There is thus no actual obligation besides the goodwill of angry kids for someone to provide credit

If someone is willing to give credit in videos going forward, that's more than you can ask for already. You get nothing out of and have no grounds to make demands in any way. Any further action on this will result in bans for user harassment.

It's clear that to avoid this kind of thing in the future, NSM should establish clear guidelines/rules as to how we want to deal with people reusing works. Those don't exist now, and may not for some time, so until they do, please be reasonable.

Marvel movies are just action porn, and they generally do a pretty good job of that. I don't know why you guys hate on them because that's their entire purpose and they fulfill it. I don't go in expecting some high brow character arc or amazing storyline, I expect to be entertained, and that entertainment is enhanced by there being an overarching story connecting them, regardless of how silly/genero it may be. The fact that it's all comic dudes that you may or may not have had some extracurricular investment in is also pretty neat.
