    I don’t want one right now. Didn’t see any reason to buy it day one which is not like me, but finances are tight so I can’t really see splurging right now. My friend was all over it though and shockingly enough he said he was able to get it last night from Walmart after waiting in an online queue for 45 min and totally expected the worst.









  • So we pay them to do this to us? I stopped putting tv’s on the internet once I realized it offered me nothing useful. Firmware is about it and if that’s the case I’ll either usb it or put it on the internet for 5 min to do the update. Even then Samsung sucks so much with firmware the release notes for every single update are “bug fixes and improvements”… thanks Samsung.

    If I am forced to put it online or it comes up with a way to phone home on its own, I am done buying those kinds of tv’s, and I’m sure some other brand will offer one that doesn’t, even if it isn’t the best one to buy.


  • I think this often. I’ve been lucky enough that I haven’t experienced much death in the family my entire life. Sure I’ve been to some great grandmother’s funerals when I was a kid and I’ve had friends family pass, but nothing that was shocking. Last year I finally lost both my grandfather’s within a year and seeing the small amount of people who showed up made me sad. The only lasting mark they made will die with the family and that’s it. I’m sure most of us are destined for this and some even less than that. I don’t want to make a mark, but I do wish to fill a room with people who remembered me.







  • Awful, depressed, worthless, financially ruined. Currently sitting on my friends couch after sleeping here because my wife and I had the worst fight we ever had over the past 2 days, and I don’t we will recover as we both decided it’s probably best to just part ways but not sure how to make that work yet due to kids and schedules. This is a fun weekend…





  • I think it definitely will. The only reason they do this is for money. How will they make money off a game where it’s only sold to the limited amount of people who get a switch. By allowing a low end version to be sold to switch they now have the potential to sell to 100 million people instead of the possible 2 million it sells in it’s first few months.

    And they are also right that it will phase out over time as the switch 2 starts to take market share but that will be years. I’m pretty sure the ps4 still has games coming out. My guess is just like the ps4/ps5 versions there will be 2 available on the cart or whenever you download from the store.
