Just another grand announcement with no real progress being made. I’ve been in Bowmanville for 10 years now, and even when I moved in it was a bit of a joke that all politicians would proudly talk about their big plans for bringing the GO Train here, and each candidate seeking re-election would go on about how they were supposedly instrumental to this. Here we are 10 years later, and the province has only just awarded a “planning contract”, meaning they’re not really any closer to shovels in ground. This thing will never be finished at this rate.

Is that 3 different HyperFlash carts!? Why!?

Nice. I have one myself so that’s why I recognized them. I actually got the first one that had a new non-salvaged from original carts connector. So the entire thing is brand new parts, which was important to me to not destroy an original VB game.

This isn’t low effort, it’s an MVP!

The Wario Land game was top tier. Probably the best game on the system.

Hey, just in case you didn’t know, you’re currently playing in a stretched aspect ratio. I know it’s filling your screen, but it’s really not intended to be stretched like that. You should be able to use the menu in your tv to set it to 4:3 to fix it.

If only Canada had a party that would promise to make this election to be the last first past the post, we’d all know who to pick. I’m sure they’d never go back on their word for that, right?

Yeah, I definitely voted Liberal in the last few elections, but my vote is likely NDP in the next. I’m still very bitter about the broken promise of elections reform. I’m just pissed because that broken promise has all but guaranteed a Conservative majority next election because the “anyone but cons” vote will be split, and gain them a victory instead.

That’s revenue, and not profit. If they funded the port themselves, and didn’t take Apple money, this would absolutely be a huge loss. It also serves as a reminder that phones just aren’t the right platform for games like this.

I can’t believe no one has mentioned Reboot!
