I mean they could. But just as Nintendo doesn't need to offer better hardware due to how much people want to play their games, Pokemon doesn't need to do better optimization because people play them anyway. It's honestly unlikely that a better optimized game would have significantly affected their sales numbers.
It's an exclusive to Nintendo hardware. They only make these games for switch. If you want to play Pokemon, you have to buy a switch. My point was that people love games like Pokemon so much that they're more than willing to buy sub standard hardware to play it, even when the experience of playing is obviously hindered by that hardware. The IP overcomes any negatives from the poor console hardware.
Eh, I think this is more indicative of the power of Nintendo IPs. My wife has been playing a lot of Pokemon Scarlett lately and it visibly struggles and has crashed or frozen at least a couple of times. This isn't the only switch game to do this either (none of them ports too).
People are just willing to put up with a lot of jank in order to play Nintendo games. If Nintendo didn't have such strong titles and only released those titles on Nintendo hardware, the switch hardware probably would've failed. The winning move was to heavily invest in strong games and then lock those games into their walled garden.
My question still is why does it feel like the democratic party continues to try to mostly target 'undecided' voters. Which I'm still not convinced actually exist in any significant numbers. But I know tons and tons and tons of theoretically democrat voters that just don't bother to actually vote.
Feels like 80% of the messaging is aimed at somehow flipping a red voter blue instead of actually capitalizing on the blue voters they actually have.
Whereas all I see Republicans do is advertise to their own base. I basically never see them legitimately try to flip a blue voter. They seem to correctly recognize that's a lost cause, so they spend most of their effort on energizing their voter base.
So in 16000 years humans will be fully domesticated by cats. I welcome our eventually cat overlords.
The inability to install solar panels on my home is enshrined in my HOA and is extremely unlikely to be overturned by our members. We should be passing laws making these types of restrictions illegal
Agreed. It's comical how he's seemingly able to rapidly build stuff that requires experience in multiple high end fields and then he even surrounds himself with his own tech and is not buried under maintenance hell for it all.
My alternative head canon is that he's actually only good at building AIs and Jarvis and Friday are the ones who actually make all of his crazy ideas work.
Turns out most of the US government relied on norms, traditions, and basic human decency, but very little of it was actually codified into law. Which in this day and age is like having no rules at all since no one has any shame anymore
I really don't understand how people who are reasonably devout followers of different religions ever end up together. Almost all of them make it against the rules or at least extremely problematic. Why would you marry someone that your religion says is going to hell because they don't believe what you do? And if you do it anyway, why would you stay in that religion? Makes no sense.
Lemmy has been a decent replacement for /r/all browsing, but it's not at all a replacement for most of the subreddits I was actually subscribed to
My local church puts out big signs in front telling you what to vote for. Regularly see cops attend that church. No one cares
I've honestly been really surprised that this was the only 'real' assassination attempt in recent memory. I was surprised that no one went after Obama, nor Trump after him and Biden after him. The rage was so high, yet it's only now that anyone from either side makes a real attempt.
