Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

If the current iteration of Mario or Mario Kart were released today without the nostalgiabait and brand recognition, they'd be the laughing stock of the industry.

This was very convenient, thanks. Now I know I can safely ignore every opinion you have on every matter.

Good. Never challenge your beliefs.

I mean, they're kind of right. Objectively Mario Odyssey and MK8 were great games that can proudly hold their own against some of the greats. Not the best games ever, but much closer to that title than to your Hateorade fuelled "opinions".

I'm as pissed off at Nintendo as anyone at this point, but if you are going to straight up exaggerate your distaste for these games to the point of obviously lying, it shows two things.

  1. You are infact the only person here actively unwilling to challenge your beliefs.
  2. Your opinion is so based in emotion that it can't be trusted. And an untrustworthy opinion can safely be disregarded.
