The disconnect seems to be that you think because modules have been installed in the deck, that somehow contributes to the build of the controller.

And that’s where I don’t agree.

Yet we can see that they are completely different devices. I don’t quite understand how you can overlook what I’m saying.

Yeah I’m not quite sure what meaning this would have. Kind of specious reasoning.

The controller and the deck are two completely different things.

Take it from me guys, I was the early adopter and my experience showed me that as great as they were, they suffered major build problems that were only exposed when in the hands of millions. The second round of builds were much better.

I have been drooling for this controller for years, but I’m more than happy to be patient this round.

For those wondering I went through 17. I have no reason to lie, I love them so much I only used them, but they broke so easily.

I read the reviews which confirmed that it’s a stylish game with not a lot of skill or deep mechanics. Learn to read.

And?

The negative reviews confirmed my fears, it’s a shallow game covered in style.

Get comfortable with people not liking everything you automatically like, that’s how preferences work.

The style is a huge red flag for me… I don’t think “woah cool rubber hose animation” I think “oh, another hyper-styled game with no actual game”. Negative reviews confirmed this fear.

Nah you just don’t get it.

The plan was just to keep throwing money until they trampled the ecosystem and came out on top, well this didn’t work for shit.

Bad logic on “profit is profit”.

Opportunity cost is huge here.

Its also that EGS is terrible.

The most recent “feature” they added that made a difference, was the ability to view my own library.

8(?) Years after launch it still operates like a prototype I’d cobble together in an afternoon

Article says closer to 400M per unit when including R&D costs

Because it’s the emotional inner world that defines how people behave, not education or knowledge or wisdom.

This doesn’t even sound like a real business. This sounds like one of those extemporaneous pitches that gets pulled out of the ass after martini 3, delivered by the sales doofus that doesn’t know how to send an email.

The red flag that caught my eye was all the cheerleading and then snuck at the bottom was (paraphrased) ‘well, people can play as much as they want but, ya know, if it’s like 10 games a month we might have to look at stuff’.

So, what? It’s subscription service but the games vanish (oh you can buy them individually) and and if you use the service for its advertised purpose, there’s going to be problems - only $7.99 ?

I should have said martini 8

It definitely sucked at the time, but it also taught me some key lessons.

Like don’t assume a game is good because it comes in a nice box. Don’t assume a licensed IP means good gameplay. Read reviews, don’t just make a snap purchase.

It was a huge loss for me at the time but I feel like these lessons actually saved me quite a bit of money/frustration over the years.

Platoon for C64. Saved up for it.

Piece of shit. And disc 2 didn’t work.

No. Just ludicrously rich as her father started a nation-wide retail giant. She’s never worked a day in her life, upwards of $60M in personal assets. Utterly delusional as it relates to how the world works and how others live. Buying an entire X, having one bite and throwing the rest out is her default.
