  1. The shows I like aren't on any of the other streaming services that I've tried. So I'm good to go with just Hulu being on Switch.
  2. I would go with physical. Maybe it's due to being a classic gamer, but I prefer to have a game that I can hold in my hand.
  3. More spam. Please delete this post.
  4. The topic was already posted HERE. But to answer it again, I stand. Less space taken up, and it gives them more surface space to dispel heat which lessens the chance of overheating.

  6. This is the first I've heard about Xbox Smart Delivery. The problem I see is that it can easily be taken advantage of. I would assume that you would have to send in the Xbox One disc, and I'm sure they would want the receipt as well. But in all honesty, who the hell hangs on to a 4 year old receipt? Or is this entirely swapping out DDL's? There's just too many holes in this to be a plausible deal. I would be wary as hell of it. Hell, I already am, and have no intentions whatsoever of having a Series X in my house ever.
  7. Nothing to me. I don't know how many games/movies/albums there have been that got horrible scores on their respective review catalogues that I absolutely loved. Also there have been some that got the best scores in the history of that media that I hated. Reviews and scores hold no value. It's all pure opinion. If a person hates FPS games they're not going to give Doom a very good score. I have several LJN games, and I love them. And we all know how LJN is perceived by the majority of the gaming world. I might be interested in a few opinions by people who have actually put actual time into playing said game. Such as people here at the forum. But someone who makes a living giving a 30 second review, holds no worth or validity when it comes to what they have to say or what score they give something.
  8. Is it any band, or just the rubber ones that come with cheap watches like Casio's? Metal bands come in different metals, which I'm sure you could find one that would work. A lot are surgical steel. Many of the higher priced are metals like tungsten, which is hypoallergenic.
  9. I think a tablet would be a good choice for gaming. It would clear up data for your phone, and you would have a bigger screen. Somewhere around here I have an iPad, and if I could find it, I would game on it, but I have no clue where it is.
  10. Damn, how old are you? I can understand not knowing Colecovision, but you have never heard of Atari?! That just blows my mind. But then some people actually think Wii is retro, which not only blows my mind but makes me sick at the same time.
  11. I'm assuming Skyrim is a game with no end?
  12. Ok. that post confused the hell out of me. I'm not much on the technical aspect either. As long as the machine does what it's supposed to do, that's all I care about. If this was still the Win98 era, I could build a kickass computer. But that era is long gone, and I don't know shit about computers anymore. I'm lucky I can turn the damn thing on.
  13. Granted their heyday has passed, but I still think they are the top dog, with PS in second and Xbox at number 3. The sales that I personally witness, have told me that. I'm not saying those are the actual figures on the actual worldwide scale. I'm just saying that from what I see people buy. A lot ask me about systems when I'm in the gaming department at Walmart. Or when I go to GameStop and the people working there are busy enough that they can't get to the customer. I tell them what I know, and my opinions, and they go from there. Everyone has their preferences, and that's the best thing about gaming. It keeps the world diverse and gets unique things and experiences out there. Personally I have been a Nintendo chick since the NES. With a couple exceptions. I hated the Wii. I wasn't the biggest fan of Game Cube, but I played it some. Mainly Zelda Four Swords and Soul Calibur 2.
  14. I have no idea what their marketing strategy was. Maybe Hulu wanted less money from Nintendo or vice versa to hook up. One thing I have to give to Hulu at least, is that it has a hell of a lot more TV shows than Netflix. I know nothing about Amazon's streaming service, so I can't comment there. But initially, you would think that they would go for Netflix. But maybe money is what stopped them there. That's all I can come up with. But if they were going to have one, you would think they would also offer another.
  15. Get an SNES and get Mario Kart. Don't go for that classic bullshit. Get the real thing. From there start checking it out on later systems. Or if that's not possible get a GBASP and get it on there. Mario Kart Super Circuit. Great game.
  16. I downloaded it and logged in afterward. To use it you do have to have an account, obviously. But I was still surprised as hell to see it on there. I couldn't find Netflix or Shudder. But Hulu being on there is still pretty nice if you ask me.
  17. Maybe it's just an American thing. But that wouldn't surprise me either.

  19. I see that ending up like Furbys and Tickle Me Elmo. People beating each other in the store and trying to steal from the ones that were lucky enough to be able to buy one. It's never a good idea to release something like this around the holidays. Unless you're taking bets on how many people end up in the hospital and/or morgue.
  20. You will not regret it. That game is amazing. Aside from events that are required to move the story, every last thing is your choice. Random things pop up constantly when you're out on your horse. People hurt or kidnapped. Some bucked by their horse and trying to catch it. Your choice to help them or ignore them. You can just kill anyone for no reason. But beware, there's always a damn witness somewhere. You can kill the witness too. You can hunt and trade. The list is endless. It's one of the best games I've ever played. And that's coming from a classic/retro gamer.
  21. Not counting current gen systems, I have multiples of all my systems. I get them in bundles all the time, and resell them with a few games at a profit. But I always keep at least 2 of each system in case one completely craps out on me. Seeing as how I play the old stuff (N64 and back) I think it's a pretty good idea to do so.
  22. I remember the 3DO. It looked awesome, but when I saw the price I almost shit myself, as did pretty much everyone. Walmart had them for an extremely short time. I heard in a roundabout way, that in a year they only managed to sell one. The rest they sent back and demanded being reimbursed or something. The system was just bad for business. Great system, don't get me wrong. But bad business. Even now, they're more money than they're worth.

    Hulu

    I didn't know about this until today, but Hulu is available as a free download on Switch. You don't have to have any part of Nintendo Online. Just go to the eShop and download the file. App? I'm not sure what you would call it since it's not a game. But if you have a Hulu account and a Switch, there's no reason not to.
