    The OS? No, their last phones and a number of the existing ones were all bumped up to full Windows 10. IOT 10 is a developer/enthusiast free OS framework or something I think.

    Yeah but you can buy Link a shirt w/ a Nintendo logo on it, so they're good. That seems more like something you'd see in the Mario game, rather than Zelda.

    How did the Pixel updates end up going on Verizon? Same day as the Nexus devices? I'm paying $60-90/mo w/ Fi, $80 including the line fee is nice. I'd use bit more data if I knew it was unlimited. Maybe go back to a multi-line account w/ my wife. If updates are no longer shit and they get the...

    I thought this too until I saw a proper comparison at Best Buy once. Not many seem to have them setup, but the extra depth the curve gives you actually looks pretty nice with a direct comparison, and hard to appreciate otherwise. Not that I'd ever recommend anyone get one still, but I see the...

    After the first few months of quality releases, I'd call the Humble Monthly Bundle probably the best deal in gaming, up there with EA Access. I can cancel tomorrow and keep my stuff, so I'd put it above PS+ at any point in it's existence, and higher volume of games.

    Allowing screenshots to be your background is great too. Probably PSN name change away from satisfying most of the complaints w/ the platform at this point. Really nice update.

    It's slow, but it's important to pay attention to what everyone else is doing or you have no chance. You can't really operate in a bubble and have to be prepared to fend off competition or before you know it you can't sell any of the food you've cooked because an airplane flew over and they...

    Played Food Chain Magnate this weekend. Was quite a bit of fun (as the winner) until we realized how badly we didn't follow or understand certain rules. Should have been a much more competitive game, but really like the concept.

    Is there a CEMU discussion anywhere too or could that fall under this? Can you also load emulators and whatnot onto it too, or only VC games? Probably seriously consider getting a Wii U because of all of this.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    At worst it will be a minor improvement and could be viewed as a Wii U Pro but w/ a different form factor. Considering the Wii U + hack route myself, skipped it hoping to get the next console and it be backward compatible.
