Not sure if you’re naming an adapter, or badly trying to coerce a cat to come closer.

I personally think Yuri’s Revenge brought about a bit too much mechanical cheese, and prefer vanilla RA2 - but I won’t begrudge a fellow fan their preferences!

Ever since taking up a low-carb/keto diet back in like ‘18, I’ve defaulted to just checking the nutrition panels on anything pre-packaged and make my judgements based on Sugar, Protein and Sodium content (both per serve, and per 100g).

I have never found these ratings accurate, let alone useful.

The fact this plays so well (interface wise) on a smartphone is ridiculous…

…massive nostalgia vibes, and I don’t even have to juggle 6 floppy disks to boot!

Aesthetics and over-compensation.

The primary drivers behind car sales to insecure & vulnerable young men. I speak from first-hand experience.

No of course not, he’s just bitching on the internet.

This is a slight historical re-write.

Blizzard’s parent company since ‘98 (Vivendi) was the larger of two companies at the time of the merger in ‘08, and put forward $2b towards the merger vs. Activision’s $1b.

Vivendi remained the majority shareholder of the new entity, and chose to appoint Bobby Kotick as the CEO.

Activision-Blizzard didn’t buy-out majority control until ‘13 - well after the enshittification began.

The Veronica Mars movie was a great continuation of the original series.

It’s a real shame that the revival series ended the way that it did (avoiding any spoilers), it really killed off fans’ desire for more.

 

Not sure if anyone else remembers this cartoon from their childhoods; sometimes it feels like it may have all just been a bit of a fever dream given how unhinged the English dub was at times!

This trailer gave me big, warm nostalgic vibes, and it seems like it could look/play somewhat like Cuphead perhaps? I’m cautiously hyped.

What are other obtuse, forgotten media properties that you think are overdue for revival? I’ll start the ball rolling with Tekkaman/Technoman Blade
