i hope everyone in nintendo’s management department dies and goes to hell no matter what and i’m not kidding

i think the reason i never jived with the anti-ai art rhetoric is because i think the idea of giving a computer a set of criteria to produce something with is, like, fundamentally an artistic process and also, really fucking cool

Every single time I see those twitter accounts that go “wind waker/twilight princess for the switch!!” This image i made a while back pops in my head once in a while

GimliDS v1.0 - C64 Emulator for the DS/DSi/XL/LL handhelds

[pendulouspuppyudders]

i will say, having modded switch games myself on a somewhat underpowered laptop i definitely believe the switch 2 can eventually be emulated with decently low overhead. nintendo is still skimping on its specs and the structure of their os and consoles hasn't changed much since the gamecube so the people who work on emulation have a lot to work with. if you have even a decent computer and are willing to wait it will definitely be cheaper to wait for emulation cuz it's really not such a pipe dream. not everyone is in that position tho so please remember this is just a valid option not the Only Moral Option Forever

Since we’re on the topic of video games, im tired of these fucking remakes. Ive said it before but i’ll say it again each time. These companies dont wanna invest in an actually good remaster or port and would rather waste their time with these remakes bcuz “ooh look how shiny and better the graphics look!!1!1!1” often times it has an empty feeling because everything has to be ultra realism super 6000. Its gotten so bad that now regular gamers are starting to gaslight you into playing or enjoying them. So much has been lost artistically, (like the cool UI designs) that it’s now considered “juvenile” and that i need to “grow up” and “accept it” 😂

Reminder that if nintendo doubles down on this whole “80-90$ games” bit, a steamdeck is cheaper and has everything the switch 2 offers and more. Sure it means no nintendo games (legally) but steam has a ton anyways. Also emulators exist so (not that i would ever endorse that but youd be shocked how quickly people can emulate new games).

(thinking about prev reblog) i have so many thoughts about the switch 2 and piracy and emulation and how so many people just do not understand how it works and that it is so much more difficult than people will make it seem but im tired and i dont want to type all that so you guys will have to wait for the morning for this rant because this is something i think a lot about
