20.02.2026 15:49 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0rumors that sony and microsoft are coming out with handhelds is interesting but also unless they're also just, dockable devices that you can play on the go or in handheld, it's not the same, and the switch will have that advantage. they're just making game boys in comparison.
20.02.2026 03:47 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0like personally, if their next thing ISN'T a console/handheld hybrid that I can plug into a TV but also take with me, I think I'd feel cheated. they'd have to come up with something else to make it worthwhile and i have no idea what that could be.
20.02.2026 03:45 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0people want nintendo to come up with something New and Innovative but I think the problem with the Switch is simply that they came up with the perfect idea and there's nowhere to go from there except power and hardware improvements
20.02.2026 03:43 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0i do remember hearing that bluepoint was working on an original game and i wonder if that was what the impetus for this shutdown was; took too long, was maybe caught up in the live service push, and so now with nothing to show they just get shown the door.
20.02.2026 03:38 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0i had my criticisms of bluepoint's work but this is an outrageous thing to do to them. this is a studio that could have put out YEARS worth of work. sony has a large enough back catalog that they could have taken their picks!
20.02.2026 03:38 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance.
And you know why?
Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.
life is strange 2 is also a game where the characters can only find redemption through their proximity to whiteness so maybe there's some limits to the imagination of *checks notes* a bunch of french people making a story about american racial issues
19.02.2026 03:37 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0"it's weird life is strange 2 fell from the public consciousness" not really. turns out people don't actually care about the border until it's knocking on their door. there's stories going back decades about the harms of the american border to latine people that no one's bringing up either.
