Looks cool! :)

No problem! :) If you do opt to try making something yourself I’m sure the folks here at Lemmy would be more than happy to check it out and give you some feedback!

Maybe it’s time you made your own project (if you’re up to it) :) time to serve that quality bisque in a bowl deserving of it lol besides, things will never change if we stay the route with Jack Welch-esque CEOs running the show; we need more indie devs, more small businesses, people who want to make something great because they’re passionate, or even just folks who want a sustainable future without strangling ourselves with the noose of “line must go up” mentality.

But also that’s a metric ton of work, and owning a project like that is certainly a risk to take!

This! Consoles are losing to handhelds like the Steam Deck in terms of capability and price. This keeps up, and we might see more switch over!

Ahhh, thanks for clarifying! Figured it was ridiculous lmao

Out of curiosity, what was the Creek incident? The initial fight for Malevelon?

Not at all! But seeing numbers like Palworld sales drove gives me hope GameFreak could panic a little and start trying (although as I mentioned Nintendo and their subsidiaries are greedy and merch sales are still strong for them, along with subpar game sales for the fanbase currently). Perhaps other subsidiaries of Nintendo. Certainly making more of an impact in attracting players than Digimon did when I was a kid, and that’s more of a change than I’ve seen in the last 20 or so years for Nintendo’s monster trainer.

In recent years Nintendo has had a little blue ocean to swim in, and they’ve shown that rather than compete or innovate as times change, they instead like to wall their garden off more. But hey, maybe Zelda and Pokemon can have an awesome next gen if they invest in a more powerful console (handheld or not) and spend a few years reworking their formula and passionately building an innovative game, like they used to do when I was a kid.

Once upon a time the Gameboy was a fairly powerful handheld system, and Pokémon Red was a groundbreaking game. But those days are gone, and the entire umbrella company as a whole needs to begin to try or they will continue to fall behind. Nostalgia only lasts as long as the affected generation(s). I’m hopeful something like the shocks of this year could change their mindset a little and get them to modernize a bit.

Seems to be the Year of Nintendo Burning Bridges. Upside is, maybe all the competition they’re finally getting in both the handheld space and in some of their big software franchises will force them to try to produce better content and hardware. Or it’ll be Nintendo and they’ll stay greedy in their walled garden with inferior products; at the very least we’ll have some superior alternatives to enjoy elsewhere!

Deck is superior to Switch! And obligatory F—- Nintendo, and their 1990’s mindset with games and hardware. I’m convinced they’ll have to financially fail to start caring. Even a 30% reduction in their sales and player counts should quickly seize their attention.

At this point 2024 is looking like the Year Of Nintendo’s Failures starting off with Palworld. They certainly deserve to fail!

Well, looks like I won’t be playing Subnautica 2 lol

There are dozens of us! 😂

I mean, Devilman Crybaby is without a doubt. Not exactly sure if that’s what you’re looking for though.
