Can anyone tell me what sane sar oo is??

Why wouldn’t you talk to anyone or go to anything? Do you have any local meets? I’m going to my first convention later this month - excited!

I understand that, but I guarantee that a lot of furries are in the same boat! I’ve found that the only way to improve is to get out there. Assuming that’s what you want

[Official] Switch 2 will be announced this fiscal year + June direct confirmed (twitter.com)

This is Furukawa, President of Nintendo. We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015. We will be holding a Nintendo Direct this June regarding the Nintendo Switch software...

Ohh interesting! Wonder if it’s planned to release in 2025? Excited to find out more.

So just to be clear - are you predicting that this new Switch will release in the window just before xmas 2024, as announcing a new console now and not releasing it for a while is tantamount to shooting their christmas sales for the original console in the foot?

If so I guess it depends - will the new console be backwards compatible? If so, people will likely continue to buy games now in the knowledge that they can upgrade later on. And there have been rumours of a new Switch for a while. I suspect most people who wanted an OLED Switch by now would’ve got one. I feel like they could announce the console now and release it after a year or two, without hurting themselves too badly.

Yeah I think you’re right. Not enough notice for a 2024 release.

April 30th. Is there something special about it?

Oh thank FUCK. I’ve been unable to sleep, worrying about the trout. As long as they survive I can die happy! This is such great news 🙏

This is how I would approach a Switch 2 release if I were Nintendo.

I’ve been recently thinking about how a logical approach could be taken with the release of a Switch 2 and how Nintendo could give it a good first few years. I’m no professional in marketing or business (far from it), but I do still have some opinions. I feel that what the Switch 2 as a console could or should be like has...

I think slowing down on first party releases is natural at the end of any generation - once dev kits are available it just makes financial sense for new games to be built on the upcoming hardware.

Will Nintendo reduce the price of the current Switch’s games? I doubt it (at least any time soon). Unlike the Wii U at the end of its lifespan, the Switch is still popular and people are still buying games like BOTW. And working on the assumption that there will be backwards compatibility, it wouldn’t be consistent with Nintendo’s strategy to reduce prices now.

I could see the new Metroid Prime being a Switch 2 launch title, and maybe they’ve been working on something like Odyssey 2 for that purpose. I doubt we’ll see another Animal Crossing or Smash game for a while.

Yes I think you’re right about Pokémon. But Nintendo does often keep things under wraps until the last minute. Maybe we’ll hear something about Metroid a few months prior to the release of the new console? It would make sense to keep a heavy hitter like that up their sleeve.

Papua New Guinea leader responds to Biden comment, saying nation undeserving of cannibalism label (www.reuters.com)

Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape says his nation does not deserve to be labelled cannibals, and urged the U.S. to clear up the remnants of World War Two littered across the Pacific, after comments by President Joe Biden about his missing serviceman uncle....

From what I’ve read, the Fore ate deceased family members as a compassionate act to help the soul pass on. Obviously this act is pretty horrifying to us, but it’s not like the ‘violent savage’ racist depictions that you see in media.

It doesn’t sound like they’d eat random foreigners. I’m guessing this whole story is something that was passed around the Biden family to give the death some extra excitement and mystery.

Apparently some Japanese troops did practice cannibalism… Dark stuff.

I’m actually quite hyped for Steamworld Heist 2! The original was one of the first games I got on Switch - kept me entertained for a good while.

@OmegaMouse@pawb.social avatar

I played a demo of Build and it was ehhhhh. I don’t think it would work well on Switch, in terms of the UI and stuff.

Heist on the other hand felt like a perfect Switch game. Can’t wait!

I’m sure it’s not a bad game - it just felt very generic from the demo. Definitely worth trying the demo on Steam if you can.

What things are ubiquitous in your life, that might not be for someone else?

I was watching a video the other day that mentioned the cassava plant, and how it’s a staple food in many parts of the world. I may have had it once or twice, but for some people it’s something they eat every day. This got me thinking - how many things do I assume that everyone else in the world must come in contact with and...

Glad you enjoyed it too! Not sure why it got the downvote
