Pokemon red at $20 is out of order. I really don't like the Pokemon company.

I dont get why it's this 33% owned mix of 3 companies and no one can give gamefreak the massive kick up the ass it's needed for decades.

I can tell you why. Gamefreak makes relatively low budget games that sell around 10 million copies every single time they get released. They could up the production, but that will just increase the budget and at the end of the day it probably wouldn't increase the sales. If they ever release a pokémon game that bombs, they might alter course. Until then, from a business perspective, it wouldn't make sense to change the way everything works.

Wow. Phil Spencer is retiring as of February 23 and Sarah Bond is leaving. Major shake up for Xbox.

So they make cheap shit that sells.

Well, after receiving my Dispatch refund I've just installed Steam on my Surface Pro 9.  I don't think I've logged into steam for at least 8 years.  Found out there's a Dispatch demo available, which is great because I'm doubtful that my Surface Pro will be able to properly run the game.  If not at least I have about 100 decade old yet still great games at my disposal that I never got around to playing before.

Not surprising. Neither had any real power over Xbox once the Eye of Nadella looked upon them.

Yeah, I kind of feel that’s the reason as well. Things seem to have gotten much stricter for the Xbox division over the last little while.
