It’s nobody’s decision but yours, but I will point out that as humans, we are very poor predictors of how we will think or feel in the future.

When we’re depressed, our brains process thoughts of the future as if we’ll be sad forever. When we’re happy and have lots of energy, we make big plans as if we’ll always feel that way. Lottery winners feel an initial euphoria and think they’re set for life, but studies show their mood returns to baseline after about 1 year. Age and development helps you push the fog of foresight a little further, but it’s still hard.

I don’t know you, but if I were speaking to myself at age 22, I would caution making a decision like that so early. I still cringe about being tasked with picking a college major at 18 and how wrong that could’ve gone, and this is easily 100x more important.

How is Nintendo going to feed its family now?

I’ve noticed that with experience comes better predictive play, rather than relying on reaction time.

That deserves a medal as far as I’m concerned.

Never heard of that one, but will look it up. Thanks!

Getting there. I’m introducing my oldest (3) to all the Mario games now.

Remember when we all dressed like that 10 years ago?

Good luck finding land that is not near fracking sites. It’s been done basically everywhere, right?

I’m not a judge, but isn’t internet essentially a utility these days? Cutting someone off because of piracy seems like cutting off electricity or water because they did something illegal with it.

I did the same thing. SNES as well. The boxes were just packaging to me at the time, but now I wish I had them.

Sometimes I forget how long it’s been!

Great rules

Game of the year, no question.

The moment I see myself in an ad, I’m giving up on technology and joining the Amish.

What a loss. =(

It’s a strange quirk of lemmy that we will continue to be able to see content from lemm.ee even after they’ve shut down. It’ll feel like seeing ghosts.
