There seems to be some misunderstanding in this thread. This isn't really an update - this is Nintendo changing production to newly available cheaper chips. Any performance difference is going to be negligible. The new higher spec switch is supposedly pushed to next spring.

My get rich quick plan - I'm going to bundle all these services for people. Sign up with my service for say... $140 per month and I'll give you access to all the streaming services. I'll call my service CABLE!

I think people need to back away from the notion that anyone who voted for Trump is a racist. I mean you are talking about half the country. We need to avoid the trap of thinking that if we disagree we have to vilify and hate.

I think that right there is the problem. People aren't waiting for the backlash... they are prematurely reacting to a problem that has not manifested yet. There very well may be a ton of racist stuff when it comes out. We have seen that reaction before. However I don't remember much backlash when they did this with Annie a few years ago, so maybe it never comes around.

I'm surprised no race or gender swaps for this one... (JK) Honestly I love that they are going in a different direction than the cartoon. I would probably like most of these remakes more if they did different stuff like this. I don't really need to see shot for shot remakes in semi live action.

To be fair I have not done a ton of looking, but so far all I have seen about this on the internet is people being triggered about people who are upset about the race switch. What I haven't seen is any actual people upset about the race switch. There is a big #notmyariel trending right now, and I scrolled it for a few minutes, but it was all people defending the new actress. Didn't see anyone mad about the decision. I think we have hit a point where the backlash is now preceding the outrage.

Inside is great. If anyone hasn't played it they should. It is pretty short and not very difficult either.

So where is Zathura...? Isn't that a Jumanji sequel too?

lol. Nah. Just because the new system is still all getting worked out does not mean that a caveman setup is preferable. A good setup with cable or DirecTV is going to run you about $140 per month (a setup with a healthy package of channels, HD, multiple tuners etc) You can pay for LOTS of streaming services with that money.

Yep yep. Netflix has been dumping tons into new development for years. They have some legit hits like Stranger Things. They are going to need to keep those going because the future does not look good for them getting other providers goods. Eventually everyone is going to have their own streaming services. That will someday contract again because several of them will fail.

I certainly hope there will be a hulu/Disney combo pack that isn't full price. Amazon I still consider part of my prime membership... then Netflix and HBO GO. After those I can't/won't do any more. At least not without figuring out which of the others I would cancel.

For me that show was must see for the first couple seasons... then they kind of went away from the central premise of the show and it got a little too much for me. I stopped watching it long ago... maybe it got good again.

You guys should take it easy on video games. Romance in reality is usually poorly handled too.

Wow. If someone would have asked me I probably would have said that happened like 4 years ago. Damn.

Keaton has gotten to be more of a badass as he has gotten older too. If they ever need an old man batman I hope they go back to him.

I'll agree with most of that - except I think Keaton was great. I don't think Batman could show much physicality in the suit they had for that film. Keaton could hardly move in it.

Humorous story... Don't try to make this a left / right thing tho. The one thing people on the left and right can agree on is that they want anyone who disagrees with them silenced. There is no conversation anymore. That is the big problem with what the world is turning into. You can't disagree with someone anymore without hating them.

I'll preface this by saying I haven't seen Aquaman so maybe I am way off. But why would anyone want Momoa to star in anything?

This is my experience as well. This prequel book is an obvious cash grab. Either the author has no other great ideas, or was pressured and gave in to the publisher.

I don't see how this is a story. I don't see any numbers attached or any proof this has traction anywhere. Its just ... hey some whacko somewhere in the world did this and posted it on the internet. Why shine a light on it or care?

I have a snes classic and a beard. Pretty much proof.

Vinyl sales increased 12% last year and cassette increased 19%. However physical media overall decreased. Vinyl is like buying a classic console, not a ps5

I don't mean anything bad by backward. Old fashioned is a fine definition of what I meant. I don't think Ms is an automatic winner, but they are currently positioning themselves for the future better than most... Google is right there but it's hard to tell how dedicated they are.

You are just reinforcing my points. 4k player sales are terrible. Samsung stopped making them a few months ago because so few sold. Vinyl sales are the very definition of backwards and hipster. That being said I have all that stuff and spend money on physical products when they are meaningful. I never said consoles would disappear, just that they won't be the standard in another decade.

You don't sound like a curmudgeon... You sound like a person buying dvd's 10 years ago. We are just at the very beginning of of game streaming. In a decade buying a console will seem backwards.
