7:37 PMjordan thompson​so what’s the opinion on the SNES classic release

7:39 PMScottyJayMan​Professions Journalists just like to hate on anything Nintendo.

7:40 PMjordan thompson​so people get confused between the Wii and the Wii u but I never heard confusion about the gamboy and the gamboy color have we really dumbed down that much

7:46 PMeathdemon​so a click bait headline

7:47 PMjordan thompson​just imagine his assistant hearing him say, “I want to meet my female fans, for research, I swear”

7:49 PMeathdemon​that headline gives a very different impression, atleast tone wise, than what he said.

7:52 PMRyan Steele​I disagree. It isn’t clickbait, it’s just hyperbole.

7:54 PMRyan Steele​You didn’t literally find pieces of shit in your Switch box, so yes, it’s hyperbole.

7:55 PMRyan Steele​At least, I think so.

7:55 PMjordan thompson​is having babies causing overpopulation/ page 1 : here’s why you might just really want a dog

7:55 PMRyan Steele​Oh, sorry, did I misunderstand what we’re talking about?

7:55 PMRyan Steele​Just jumped in a bit ago.

7:58 PMjordan thompson​so we’re not mentioning the SNES release, if not this week next week and at some point I’d be nice to get some thoughts on a N64 classic

7:59 PMeathdemon​your right outside of trevor from gta5

7:59 PMScottyJayMan​I’d hate to see what Trevor’s moral code it

8:01 PMeathdemon​trevor is basically the player avatar.

8:01 PMTrey Ahzze​Red Dead looks to be turned into full GTA

8:01 PMTrey Ahzze​RedDead 2…

8:04 PMjordan thompson​so Deadpool, the punisher, the crow ECT. ECT.

8:07 PMjordan thompson​they just released the new Chucky, I’d like to see a prequel with how Charles Lee ray got into voodoo

8:08 PMjordan thompson​Kevin spacy from American beauty kinda but might be a stretch

8:09 PMeathdemon​there was a mummy 3 sady, also a anamated serries which isnt bad btw]

8:13 PMjordan thompson​what do you think of the idea of horror victims coming to terms with their villians such as Ripley getting a pet xenomorph or shara Conner marrying a t800

8:17 PMeathdemon​you mean use your ipad, diaries have all been replaced

8:17 PMjordan thompson​that’s oddly specific Andrew, are you speaking from experience

8:21 PMTheRiverAnduin​the full game should be amazing

8:21 PMjordan thompson​can we discuss SNES classic release and the possiblity of a N64 classic at some point

8:21 PMRyan Steele​That demo was great. Not even totally done with everything you can do in it yet.

8:21 PMeathdemon​play the dancer, its a fairly dark story

8:21 PMeathdemon​darker than you would expect for a square jrpg

8:22 PMRiddimensaur​the kids mom

8:22 PMjordan thompson​also next week is gonna be lots of fun, I’ll make sure the comments are full of inuindos

8:22 PMRyan Steele​Loved laying out every single possible challenger, leaving towns empty except for people lying on their backs with the stars overhead

8:22 PMRyan Steele​The barmaid fight

8:24 PMTheRiverAnduin​Andrew, you going to get Xenoblade 2?

8:26 PMRedhawk Gaming​get x it was really good but it takes like 2 weeks to bet

8:26 PMRedhawk Gaming​(xenboblade)

8:26 PMTheRiverAnduin​gamestop has a clearance for X

8:27 PMTheRiverAnduin​20$

8:27 PMRyan Steele​Xenoblade X was great to play as well. I thought it played better than the original, and the setting was more appealing to me.

8:28 PMeathdemon​soon tm

8:28 PMjordan thompson​I hate to be annoying and repeat myself but can we talk about the SNES classic and the possibility of a N64 classic next week

8:28 PMRyan Steele​I still wonder if Xenoblade 2 is really coming when they say. It just doesn’t really feel ready yet, based on what we’ve seen so far.

8:30 PMRedhawk Gaming​its coming

8:30 PMRedhawk Gaming​they gave us a 8 minute trailer

8:31 PMRedhawk Gaming​Nintendo only shows finished games

8:31 PMTheRiverAnduin​X was shown several years before release but no date

8:31 PMRyan Steele​Yeah, X had pretty substantial trailers a long way out

8:32 PMjordan thompson​alright I’ll get ready for next week, I’ll bring the beer someone else is in charge of the lube, not me

8:32 PMRyan Steele​Given that they have a date, it seems likely to stick. It still just feels early somehow
