Sm64ex-coop is amazing! I never got far in super mario 64, the camera gave me headaches. I did know it was a revolutionary game for it’s time though.

With sm64ex-coop, you can enable free look with the camera, and if you set it up right it feels just like the camera in many modern games. There are hi-res texture packs (Render96) available that also look amazing. And finally, they added a bunch of mods and features, one major one being the ability to play multiplayer.

Oh yeah, and it’s cross-platform, runs on a whole bunch of different devices. I highly recommend checking it out, it’s sooo much better than anything you’ll get from an emulator.

Pokémon. You get to choose from Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle for your starter. And everyone you know will judge you for which starter you picked.

I fail to see your point? Right now a dev can sell their game as digital-only, forego a bunch of distribution costs and other costs associated with a physical release, and prevent lost game sales from resales. If this was to actually happen, they could no longer prevent those lost sales.

As a gamer, there’s no longer any reason to “pay” for games. You can just borrow them. Buy them used, and turn around and sell them when you’re done.

Not if you don’t have the ability to resell it, it doesn’t.

I actually hope this ruling gets reversed. This has been a known factor in physical vs. digital games for a long time. With a physical game, the publisher only makes money during the initial sale. If that person decides that they want to sell their game later, the developer doesn’t see any of the money from that sale.

I routinely buy games on Steam when they go on sale for 80%+ discounts. Even AAA titles that are less than a year old occasionally see discounts up to 50%. It’s rare that we can say the same for physical games. I expect that part of this is that game publishers have factored resales into the value.

A digital copy immediately has a $0 resale value. It has no further value to anybody other than the person who bought it. But a physical copy still retains resale value, as it can be resold multiple times. Aside from a few exceptions, if a developer sells 100 digital copies, around 100 people get to enjoy the game. Versus selling 100 physical copies, which results in significantly more people getting to enjoy it. Also, physical games degrade, but digital games don’t. Without any degradation, there’s no compelling reason for someone to purchase a used game over a new one.

Overall, this lost revenue will have to come from somewhere. This will almost certainly hurt indie game studios, as well as the digital storefronts themselves. Epic Games is already far from being profitable as is. I can only assume that this will end in higher game prices, less sales, and lower discounts. Other possibilities could be limits on number of downloads, as that extra bandwidth comes at a cost, or subscription fees for storing your digital game library. Of course everybody has their own opinions, but I’d much rather just keep the games I’ve paid for, and acknowledge that I can’t resell them.

It should also respect your PRIVACY! There are numerous articles about CPAP machines transmitting your data to not only your doctor but also your insurance company, WITHOUT your consent. Possibly your employer as well. If your insurance company decides you’re “not complying” and using your CPAP machine enough, they’ll take it away from you. Your employer could fire you.

Having a sleep apnea diagnosis can also limit you from certain jobs, and can make it harder to get life insurance. In some ways it feels like you’re not a free man anymore.

This broke the “MAS” scripts, at least as far as HWID activation. From their website:

Note: Microsoft servers are currently rejecting HWID activation requests when activating through MAS, we’re checking what’s going on now. Use the KMS38 activation option for now.
