For context, Lidl also had Nintendo and PlayStation mugs come in before Christmas, both of which have long since sold out
I just want to dump on Microsoft for their shitty mug design. Whereas the Nintendo mug had Mario on it, this mug is dedicated to... the Series X console, not the general Xbox brand or iconography people might have nostalgic feelings for.
How is this design even evocative of the Series X or Xbox? What do the monochrome green Corporate Memphis landscapes have to do with either?
The mugs should have probably just have had "Game Pass $10/mo" scribbled on them with a sharpie
I forgot about Mindcraft Stefan. MS also owns lovable platform mascots Qinqin Bear and Didgeridoo Bird, too, but they haven't been in a game for like 20 years.
They'd be in Embracer Group trouble if they weren't Microsoft lol
Microsoft bought Rare and then proceeded to turn down all their pitches for new games, then had them work on Kinect games and Xbox Avatars until they finally made that multiplayer pirate game that seems to be vaguely popular
Money well spent
This part hurts too much for me to keep up the bit lol
