WiiU, you were misunderstood and shunned for just being "U"

I personally couldn't stand the right stick positioning, it was so awkward to play on for me. They even did it for the pro controller, there was no escaping it...

I completely agree with this article, and feel its why nintendo deserted the wiiu in its last 2 years or so. By doing this, nintendo had 3-5 powerhouses on switches freshman outing. Although, im skeptical nintendo can match 2017s offerings in 2018. 2019 will probably be the year to rival 2017.

Of course it did. Just like the Gamecube's failure, helped the Wii succeed. The Wii was basically a Gamecube with a slight boost and motion controls.

The Switch is basically a 3DS on steroids. There's a reason the games look comically bad. Anyone who may deny the fact of that, is just a blind fanboy, or clueless.

There is a good reason why the Switch emulator popped up so quickly, and is making progress far faster than most. They already had such a head start by what Citra had already emulated, and started building on it.

a 3DS on steroids? That's moronic.

If you call it anything, its a Wii U on steroids, except it uses none of that hardware.

Sony Patents To Prevent You From In-Game Harassment By Reading Your Emotions

A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.

Profchaos9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.

I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons

I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.

Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.

Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.

Cmon where's the pictures of your children. Don't hold out on them.

At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath

I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.

Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
