Grown man has to wait for ten minutes at most anguish
The older I get, the more important it is for games to not waste my time.

Bought a Switch 2 on a whim the other day. Wasn't really excited about it but curious. Mario Kart World is a fucking blast - played for a good four hours last night and smiled more than I have with a video game in a very long time, even some bursts of laughter and day I say...hints of joy? That's all.

Carry on with your discussion about digital ownership rights.
Are we playing the same game? It's well done, but it's just Mario Kart.

I don't even know what to say to this, are you that fickle? Astounding how a childs game well beyond it's welcome can make you say this sort of shit.

Oh, be nice. We're both just jealous that nothing makes us this happy anymore.

This begs the question, is it better to be blindly happy or to be acutely aware of the realities before us. Solice can be found either way.

For fuck sake... Somebody makes a simple statement about finding joy or having fun, and the jaded brigade comes out accusing people of being fickle and not paying attention to reality because they had fun playing a Mario game? lol Get laid or something, Jesus.

Not gonna lie, super Mario wonder is my favorite mario game right behind Mario world, and I hope they make a wonder sequel on the switch 2.
It was so refreshing after the New missteps.

Yea, I wasn’t a huge fan of the “new” series. Super floaty with everyone and it just felt like, eh, let’s release a new Mario game but don’t put too much effort into it. 3D world stomped all over those games sadly.

I am a huge fan of the "new" series. The music and graphics weren't great, I give you that, but the platforming was excellent. Wonder is good but the seeds were a little too gimmicky and disruptive for me. 3D World and Bowser's Fury do stomp.

Mario Kart World is really solid and has a great foundation to build on. It's not going to convert anyone who doesn't already like Mario Kart. I expect it to get patched and have a bunch of free updates + paid DLC. In a few years it will be an excellent game just like how MK8 --> MK8 Deluxe.

I'm also kind of blown away at how much better BOTW and TOTK perform and look now on Switch 2. Probably old news for people who've been emulating them but they're almost like new games to me

I got a email invite today to buy a Switch 2 system from Nintendo so I guess they're still sending them out, FYI.

Overly Obsessed Nintendo Fan(s)
She was Nintendo in my post, but you're right. That too. The cognitive dissonance of people complaining about the Switch 2 and Nintendo fans posting pics of excitedly receiving their outdated processor with a subpar LCD like it's their first console launch on twitter was jarring.

It wasn't about you, brother. Just riffing on an old meme.

In case you were wondering if I was trolling.

Eh…60 is closer than you think for some…
We're also the first generation to grow up with these kinds of distractions. We are the vanguard of faggitry. We are sort of caught between generational attitudes- equidistant to both the 'grow up and be a man' and 'stay home and be a faggor' generation. We were lucky enough to have our cake and eat it too, for the most part. The millenials got fucked.

This is so true to be honest. I hate say it but I think our generation had the best of the best so far.

It is still shocking at times how accepted video games are as a part of life nowadays, across both sexes and all ages.
