    the switch has this advantage where they can just take the best gems of the wiiU era, give 'em a nice polishing and BAM it's AAA time

    it's not like anybody bought 'em on the WiiU

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    A lot of it depends on why they aren't moving out. Because it's easier to live there? Because they don't want to put forth the effort that living alone entails? Or because it's actively very difficult to move out and be anywhere near comfortable? There's not affordable housing/jobs available nearby?

    If the option is live with my parents and pay a small rent, or work two jobs, barely have any free time, and scrape by with very little so that I can live on my own, that's a pretty difficult decision, especially if I don't have a college education.

    Which is fine.

    But I agree that they should at least trying to find a part time job or going to school. Spool seems to be implying they're doing neither of those things and just doing that weird thing that some of my friends did were they just kind of exist for a few years and wake up at 11pm at night and go to bed at 2pm and their schedule rotates every few days because they're struggling to adult and their anxiety prevents them from really trying to figure out what to do next (if they can even do anything next).

    nah they're getting there. spool18 has a PT jerb and is paying nominal rent (25% of his checks), Squeakel is being part-time slave labor in the house until he has one as well. I expect them both to take a shot at moving out by the end of the year, but it's going to suck for them because they ain't used to living like poor people. spool18 especially because he's never done it before - Squeakel had a taste, he knows what he's missing.

    I maintain: it's hard but not impossible, and I don't think it's a great idea to just let them coast because it's going to be challenging to launch. Hell, I fully expect shit to go sideways for one of them, at least once, but they've got to try for my sanity and their own!

    See now this is all quite reasonable! :P

    But

    Are you texting Squeakel every hour about whether or not he's applied for 10 jobs yet today

    Actually he needs to be up because he's supposed to be a domestic servant from 10AM - 2PM every day with no breaks until he gets a real jerb and can contribute with $$$ instead of effort. Thank you for reminding me to call, he better be awake!

    Are neither planning on going to college?

    Sorry, I just woke up, didn't read the rest of [chat]

    I'll let Squeak speak for himself wrt college challenges, but he's taking some time off for entirely legitimate reasons.

    spool18 has aspirations for community college, but is not in a mental health or financial place where he can do so right now

    Meh, it all seems reasonable to me.

    Just as long as they know... know deep inside... that they're not losers or weak for not being out of the house yet.

    I'm still chasing legitimate manhood, because I didn't have a great job by 19, and wasn't in school by then either.

    I dunno if it's a problem you had, but the Edicts of Toxic Masculinity demand that all males be on their own, have a vehicle, and be proud of their job by 19. Living with your parents (in my case, it was my newly-single, very authoritarian mom) after high school can be really embarrassing, and society at large devalues a male who isn't somehow the master of their own destiny the moment they have diploma in hand.

    Yeah I know the 3DS could go online, I assume Wii U version could do. This version will almost definitely be their flagship online service title.

    Are there successful online fighters? I feel like that's one genre where even a tiny amount of lag is just crushing.

    Oh yeah, there's a lot of online fighter stuff. Modern netcode has gotten pretty good at that stuff, there's specific fighting game network things like GGPO for that.

    That is a fantastic name, and then you will probably call her Ivy Or Eevee and both of those are really cute.

    Nintendo. Seriously your killing me, you have this huge SNES library, put them on the switch subscription plan, call it subscription plus. You could literally charge 14.95 a month to play the library of SNES games, and people would fork over a billion dollars a month for that. The added development costs would be quite small, maybe 3-5 million in code updates and another million a month in bug fixes.

    You could double your net income. *Rage*
