it might be difficult here. I'm in Korea. ie the land of Samsung.
I've been using a pair of dual shock 4s for something like seven years now without any drift. I had to buy new stick tops because I wore them out.
OTOH, the dual sense I bought started drifting so badly, it was unusable after a year.
Maybe the old Japan/Korea relations play a role in Nintendo’s neglect?
While I don't doubt that that could also be part of the reason it never released here, it is a fact that the DS sold more hardware than games here in 2007.
In South Korea, many video game consumers exploit illegal copies of video games, including the DS. In 2007, over 500,000 copies of DS games were sold, while the sales of the DS hardware units was 800,000.

And yeah, as far as issues plaguing the world today, software piracy is pretty far down the list of ones that need immediate attention.
Agreed. Peak Rush is Hemispheres (Circumstances is possibly the best rock song ever written) for me, but really I love almost everything from Fly by Night to Grace Under Pressure. That's 8 albums I can easily listen to front-to-back.
Whelp. As I typed I realized I forgot about Caress of Steel. I suppose that says something...
Huh. I just searched Google, and clicked on the clip. While I was watching, I copied the URL and pasted it here not really bothering to look at it. I edited it to be a YouTube link instead.
Maybe the chaebols should stop constantly putting up new apartment blocks now.
I've never had a Twitter, nor "X" account. I get your point, though.
Jeju Do, South Korea. We've got venomous snakes, though.
Haha! Yeah. Like you say, I am almost of the exact opposite opinion of you. The FFXIII games had some interesting and innovative game play wrapped in blisteringly inane characters and story in a world that makes no sense. We can at least agree on the music being awesome.
My buddy's first HDD for his Amiga held 20mb. It was the size of a toaster, and cost something like $400. Now, a chip the size of my fingernail can hold a terabyte, and costs less than that HDD. I know it's slowed down a lot, but I really wonder where we'll be in another forty years.
I haven't been back to Reddit since the first day of protests.
Not gonna lie though, I miss it. The niche stuff I went to Reddit for in the first place came here during the drama, but despite an initial push to get some replacement communities going here, they've gone almost completely inactive now.
Metroid Dread, Stardew Valley, and Baldur's Gate 3.
The former on Yuzu's last build on a nice 32 inch monitor with a big controller that doesn't cramp up my hands. It's pretty hard, but I did just get past a part I hear a lot of people quit on, so there's that. I can't imagine trying to play it with Joycons. I'd probably snap them in half.
