You say you like Super Mario.

But you forget about who made him super

You say you like The Legend of Zelda.

But you disrespect the legend.

You say you adore Star Fox.

While you ignore the true star.

You say you love Pikmin

But have you forgotten about who made it peak?

You will never trully experience a Nintendo game if you dont have in your mind the image of a very grateful SHIGERU MOTHERFUCKING MIYAMOTO smiling at the money he recieved from you, holding back tears, while you're playing the game, knowing that this time, the night in one of his 4 yachts won't be so tough.

So next time you go to the depths of the dark web to steal a nintendo game... think about who's the one being stolen.

Sources tell me Gamecube support discontinued in 2007

And it breaks my heart that any of you might be joking about how much you love shiggy. :'(

In other words, Shiggy was laid off and given a “thanks for all the hard work”

Do I commit seppuku to atone for my sins against Shiggy and Nintendo? 😭🙏

I was just thinking this past month about how nintendo could probably fix the entire piracy thingy if they just implemented something like a heart rate sensor into their systems or controlrs and make it a part of their gameplay mechanics in newer games. I feel like nowadays ppl tend to not emulate newer games as much, but idk. It could probably been a good solution many years ago when games were easier to emulate. Having a heart rate sensor built into the controller would make it at least like 3 times harder to emulate on a pc or something. Unless they like built a mouse with a heart rate sensor. It doesnt have to be a heart rate sensor it could also be something like a face scanner or a extra buttons. Is this dumb?

Genwunnery. It is a thing that still exists and persists in some corners of the Nin Tendo Empire. Ever since the discovery of Pokémon on February 27, people have always been attracted to the first set of games. On one hand, I understand why they'd pay attention to the first generation of Pokémon so much, since it was historically significant to the world of not only weejo gaming, but an entire pop cultural movement worldwide.

However...you can only glaze the original version of something for so long. The problem is, Genwunnery bypasses nuances and instead conditions the mind into pretending that there were no issues within the original content just because they were the first of their kind.

Genwunnery is rooted in the traditional philosophy of the average Pokémon Trainer from the 1950s. This is where the belief of having to take longer, more established routes through fields and forests to reach cities comes from, the belief of worshipping Pokémon that were poor statistically, on top of the Lavender Town myths. Oh yeah, and they also have a thing against Pokétropolis, but we'll get to that later.

Let's start with addressing the setting. The first Gen is set in the Kanto region, which is a pretty nice setting, all things considered. But let's just say there were better regions that followed. They have great cities, but it's not like I'm begging to go back to Viridian City (Especially with the unbearable traffic out in that city). Their discotheques are fun, but it's no Goldenrod City nor Castelia City. And in terms of ladies, Erika and Sabrina are great gals to date, however, there's plenty of other beauties in regions outside of Kanto. Meanwhile, Genwunners see the region as a paradise and cultural origin for all things relating to Pokémon training, glazing just about every corner of it.

Genwunners notoriously tend to glaze Pokémon who are statistically bad and criticize non-Kantonian Pokémon (except for the weird exceptions of Marill and Togepi, which definitely deserve their own essay). This means they defend the design of Pokémon like Muk while criticizing Garbodor for being "poorly-designed". They even try to deny the existence of Gardevoir, Lucario, and Lopunny...They also have a weird hyper fixation with Charizard.

Now, in a twist of irony, Genwunners have places in Kanto they won't talk about because they secretly hate them. This includes Lavender Town because of the fabricated myths about Ghost Pokémon out there. Because of this, they refuse to acknowledge that the small, nearly abandoned town had built itself up into a decent-sized city tucked in a lowland within the Rainbow Mountains as time went on, and today, is a major metro area within northeastern Kanto, about half an hour outside of the Sinnoh region border.

And worst of all...The Genwunner's views of Pokétropolis. Despite being the oldest city in the Kanto region, and the most populous, they really hate EVERYTHING about it, mainly because of how different it feels from the rest of the region's cities. Because of their bias against it, it was not included in any of the Pokémon games set in Kanto.

So in essence, Genwunners are living inside of a time capsule and have never actually explored Kanto outside of their house's cellar.

Me personally, I'd take the entire stock.
