  • Personally they lost it when they didn’t incorporate 3DS backwards compatibility. Worst was that consumers were ok with that. Maybe it was because Nintendo could fool a younger generation with mediocre emulation.

    People to this day want 3DS backwards compatibility but Nintendo isn’t to budge anytime soon. We gave that up when we accepted Switch with open arms and retired our 3DS. I was scoring New 3DSs for as low as $20. Tons of games left n right for $5 - $10 bucks. People abandoned the 3DS the same way people abandoned the NES back when the SNES first launched.

    Nintendo handhelds had always had that niche of being backwards in compatible. Bringing the old to the new. But here we are. Yes the Switch 2 will play Switch games but there’s a whole 3DS line of games locked away in a whole other console format.

    Now I’d you see the Switch game gallery, it’s a bunch of AAA games mixed with tons and tons of low quality flash-style games that look worse than a mobile phone game. Also, people aren’t stupid, they know what a decently powered machine is capable of playing/emulating.


  • Mine was wilderness survival, which I think would still be a thing if cell phones weren’t as advanced as they are with GPS navigation, emergency dialing and location.

    I know it still happens and is still a very needed skill specially for those who live out in low populated areas, but I genuinely thought that being lost or stranded in the woods was a super common thing. Like needing to start a fire, finding water and hunting to catch food was definitely an experience I would one day have to go through even though I grew up in a large city and didn’t have a reason to go off the grid often aside from occasional shore fishing.

    Mega Karen has special abilities that the other Karen’s don’t.

    1. Speed Dial Manager: an ability to store and recall store manager phone numbers from Mega Karen’s cell phone.

    2. Family Minions: husband and children will back up Mega Karen even though she’s in the wrong. On special occasions Mom/sister/cousin can be activated.

    3. Double-Down: Mega Karen will insist and try even harder when cornered.

    4. Extra HP: Mega Karen does not mind wasting more time than other lesser powered Karen’s.

    Though Mega Karen is hard to defeat she still uses a predictable pattern. She always moves in to recording you on her phone. You’ll know she’s started running low on HP when she starts getting hysterical and becomes the “victim”. If fought right, the battle usually ends with Mega Karen being escorted off the battle field but sometimes she can be knocked out. Sadly she gives very little Skill Points when she’s defeated and it’s due to her Low IQ and Value to the world.
