I’m thinking of the second-hand stores that are gonna have two thirds of their inventory go poof the second those servers go off… if I were them I wouldn’t even bother with accepting game key card trade-ins
I’m not too worried. The servers for downloading digital Wii purchases are still up. The servers for the Switch eShop aren’t going to go away for at least 20+ years, barring a massive global catastrophe. You may no longer be able to buy things then but you’ll still be able to download your purchases.
The only reason Nintendo (and anyone else) kills old shops is payment processors. They can’t afford to keep updating the backend to support credit cards’ security standards.
Between Hellblade 2, Expedition 33 and now this, I feel like we have facial animation in AA video games figured out.

“This’ll get those crates moving” had me lollin
i already had extreme reservations about the OFF remake and the intentions behind it but am i wrong for genuinely being kind of disgusted that they’re literally putting undertale motifs in the soundtrack?? if it somehow wasn’t intentional it comes off as magnificent hackery… man fangamer creeps me out
EA shut down Cliffhanger Games who were working on a Black Panther game, lotta ex monolith people were there so uh this sucks.
no this sucks
@Father.Torque they finally cracked the modern modern warfare campaigns, or they put them on some digital store that didn’t have drm is probably what happened.
mw1 is 200 gigs.
I was just thinking of playing the cracked vanguard campaign the other day to see the terrible plane level that drove jed insane
call of duty games are specifically called out by the BDS movement to be uninstalled and boycotted
Uninstall & boycott key games owned by the company such as Minecraft, Call of Duty, Candy Crush, etc.
i got it on PS4 still in the shrink wrap if you wanna borrow it
Lol like I said it was a fleeting thought I think we’ll both live thank you though
i would love to see statistics on the pro palestine cod fans who uninstalled because of bds it would be fascinating
just recently i got kicked from someones stream even though they were talking a big game of hating israel and zionists because i pointed out that doom the dark ages is covered by the boycott lol
This is good news but also the recent gamer linguistic tic of saying a game “has been preserved” drives me bananas, lol. Preservation is an ongoing process, not something where you rip a CD and call it a day. One of those things I go full pedant on. I also hate it when people use “archival” as a noun, like “ok, let’s hire someone to do archival”. It’s a sign of progress that people care about this stuff but also I hate all language and everyone who speaks it!!!
I don’t know how to actually pirate games any more, I think I just have to let these go
Also sometimes “Game has been preserved” articles just mean that some museum somewhere bought it.
