Never played super circuit

OG Super Mario Kart is a banger all day long and you know it


I hated on it for so long, but i eventually came around and i kinda like it now.

It is still the worst In the Series lol


That was already possible. This lets the game run natively on a modern PC, as long as you supply your legally backed up rom image of your N64 cartridge of the game.

Also, if they trained AI on programming books which they licensed in perpetuity and free college courses and it became better than people at programming, then maybe vibe coding would be questionably good. But they didnt. In a system designed to exploit labor, they took the fruit of that labor without compensating those who deserved it (a crime that, as you elude to in your comment, is not socially acceptable), then they sold their snake oil which is NOT as good at the job it proposes to eliminate as the human worker, to a company which will pay for the privilege of exploiting that technology at the expense of the humans they will replace with it, while it does a worse job and generally makes life shitter for everyone in that entire supply chain, except for the Sam Altmans. Who, as we’ve seen in recent times, want to build tech bro kingdoms where they can exploit people further.

The problem isn’t the neural network, it’s the exploitation.


This is not a romhack or a tool for romhacking. This lets the game run natively, on current PC hardware.



It’s like a virtual license file for a game. It’s basically the same system as before but now you can trade them with people on your friends lists.

People with kids: be sure to set parental controls on this before your kids are bullied into sending away all the games you bought them

WDIT: I see the article is not actually about the virtual key cards but the physical ones. This is a game cert without the game on it, just the license file. You still have to download it.

Honestly I think that fucking sucks because they can just take it away from you.


Couple things there.

There are Virtual Game Cards, purchased and downloaded digitally from the eShop. These can now be traded, sold, gifted, loaned, etc. to other friends, which was not previously possible. (This could possibly require an NSO subscription, but I’m not clear if that’s true at all.)

There are physical game cartridges, which contain the actual game on them, and (from what I’ve heard) most games will be distributed this way.

Then, there are also physical carts that contain only the virtual game license file, thus that you have to possess the physical cart in order to download or play the game. Apparently, there are Switch 1 games like this already, but they are rare.

With the introduction of Virtual Game Cards, it is no longer possible (even on Switch 1) to play more than one copy of a game online at the same time, even with a min NSO Family subscription.


Someday we’ll find out that all the Switch 2s actually peer together and create a blockchain to track ownership


And when they decide to shut it down, there’s no reason that the most recently downloaded map can’t just be played as-is.

If it’s a free-to-play game though I have less of a problem with this. But I still have a problem with it.



Oh so you don’t like it when other people seem to pull arguments out of their ass but then it’s ok when you go ahead and do it?

Ok, please describe your playtesting experience with 4K games on Switch 2.


$50 in 2007 is $77.62 in 2025. The outrageous thing is how little the working class has been given to compensate for it.


After six years, if the community needs to provide feedback to get the game to good condition then Silksong will be considered a failure

That being said I think it’s going to be just fine. I don’t think it’s going to revolutionize metroidvanias though, and that is unfortunately going to upset a subset of people.


The line in bluring, but the Deck can run Windows if you want, it’s a PC stuffed into a controller (and that’s not a dig at it, either)


It’s also on steam, like already you can buy it in Early Access

I don’t think many people who aren’t to Hades are like “aw fuck I can’t play it on my PS5??”

The three Xbox users are in shambles though


They had all this lore built up from the original series and they just did fuck all with it


What is it about backwards compatibility that the Switch 2 is having issues with? I thought it was all games that brought their own hardware, or depended on a feature that the new Switch doesn’t have (IR camera on the Joycon for example)


I don’t think I’ve ever actually played a story mission in Just Cause 4


Can you download a game on the same account to two switches and play them at the same time?


Why should it matter? No, seriously, why should we give up that right? If they want to disable online features like multiplayer or leaderboards then so be it - that’s understandable. Mods drive sales and interest in the very games they’re trying to sell.

And people do mod FOSS games, wdym


Yeah but if you remake a game and don’t include all the original characters then it’s not really a remake now is it?

Bam’s a shitty little attention whore but he’s not like, molesting kids, is he? I’m not sure there’s enough of a reason to exclude him from a remake of a game he was originally in.



“Akshully, net neutrality is BAD because it lets the GOVERNMENT censor the internet!”


If you mean doing stuff like using ground stations to triangulate location, phones have been doing that already. Why would Pokemon Go have anything to do with it?


Don’t do dual boot. Windows will purposefully fuck up your MBR so Linux disappears every update and it’s a bitch to fix.

Run that shit in a VM. It’s 2025 you will get good performance.


They probably started it at a time when analysis suggested it was what people wanted more of, and then during the probably what; 4 or 5 years it took to develop, interest waned?

I don’t think it was weird that they started on this; it was pretty weird that they didn’t pivot or cancel earlier.


My man, have you heard of Bazzite?


Then the LED would always be on. I doubt that most of those cameras are ever powered off when the computer is on, rather they just write the data from the camera into a memory buffer when asked for a camera feed.




Valve has a good track record, and you’ve never owned a game in your life. They’ve always been a license, with few exceptions. Even physical media.



He did debate with Hasan on stream for like 3 hours and I’m sure (assuming) he got a lot of texts from his business partners (one of whom I understand is Muslim) so maybe he really did take a hard look at himself.

I sure hope so because, man - what he said was ignorant AF.


I notice there aren’t a lot of Dashlane fans. (I use Bitwarden myself.)

Is there something wrong with them?


Incredible how many people skip the article and substitute their own reality before commenting.

Article says nothing about Apple allowing law enforcement access to any user data.

There has always been plenty to criticize about Apple, but some of you people see their name and just get so [TRIGGERED]



More like that movie “Toys”, where they just want kids to indiscriminately kill with drones for their own power trips while cursing the “goddamn UN”.

Boy did they ever nail their shot with that one.


Knowing the odds doesn’t stop children from developing a gambling habit.

We were on the way to banning gambling a couple decades ago, it was illegal online and it was hard for new casinos to open up. Sports betting was illegal.

Now we’ve got FanDuel and gacha and loot boxes and crypto casinos and shitcoin shoveling influencers all this awful shit. And if you look around, the biggest shitbag bullies are the ones who are promoting it, because they know they’ll get their bag and their fans will never turn on them.

You know, because they might win next time.

These people are child predators, just not (always) the sexual kind. Fucking ban it all.


Every time we do it we learn from it. That’s nowhere near zero.
