Something happened between both Nintendo and Capcon behind the scenes to justify such stance.

Something happened between Nintendo and the entire industry behind the scenes at that time which is why PlayStation blew the hell up.

It's "something" called charging companies $35 for carts that only you manufacture and needing six months advance for supply.

Capcom lost a literal buttload on Super Street Fighter II carts.

Nintendo gangsters in the 90's: "Wait what's that, you boys making games for the SEGA? Guess you don't want these cartridges anymore"

Nintendo gangsters in the mid 90's: "What what, Sony's taking our cartridge royalties too?"

I wish we could get a dev from back then to comment on discussions about the N64 hardware at the time.

What happened to the N64 isn't really a mystery though.

Nintendo bet on cartridges and Silicon Graphics. CD's were slow so their assumption that their games needed faster loading times wasn't really crazy. Plus SGI was the market leader at the time so it made sense to work with them.
I know people like to dunk at Nintendo to go with CD's but if you look at what happened around the time they made that call with the SEGA CD and the likes, their position makes sense.
They strayed too far away from Gunpei's philosophy though, possibly because of the VB disaster and that meant that the Ultra 64 chasing the tech crown was only top of the line as the downgraded N64 until PC's overtook it about a year after it launched.
What mostly held it back was their weird ass ideas about Dream Teams and providing select developers with all the support of which only Rare turned out to be successful.

Sony made all the right decisions, the downsides of the PlayStation hardware were not severe enough to sink it and the advantages of the N64 were cancelled out with far better third party support.
Nintendo also underestimated how fast their high-end machine would age. In fact it aged so fast that they considered to launch a new 3DO/CagEnt MX console by Christmas 1999.

I’m legit surprised triggered folks are not frothing at mouth at ketkat getting banned. Did those who frothed their mouths in last controversy all get banned ?

[Cauliflower Of Love]

I'm loving that they can't reconcile michelle wolf, a comedian, being up there with, comedians, in a comedy tour, about comedy.

The thing with C.K. to me is first, gross, second, he never gave a heartfelt and genuine apology. H

Do these people think Louis owes more of an apology to the fans, than to the people he wronged?

With the Michelle Wolf thing I could easily see it as the fact that she’s part of the show series and suddenly they get Louis CK as a surprise guest one week and she sorta has to go along with it or burn a massive amount of bridges. Not to excuse her or anything but that’s the kind of situation that a lot of women in entertainment have to deal with: “hey we’re bringing in this known shitty dude and you just have to deal”.

[Straight Edge]

Who's taking bets on how long KetKat's ban will be? I will be shocked if it's more than a month.

Is the same reasons why Jeremy Parish bitching about old development Studios making Otaku games ring hollow: there is probably way more horny otakus buying your pandering game over your enthusiastic old school jrpg lover crowd that is more concerned in petty fights at twitter about translations and localizations than buying stuff they like at this point in any case.

[Transhuman]

It seems like they want ketkat to snap so they have an excuse to perm her, so the ban has to be long enough to piss her off but short enough that she's still angry when it expires.

[Boredfrom]

If I need to guess, there is probably backstage politics involved and maybe KetKat doesn’t have the same support she had months ago. The fact that she is suddenly going against the usual hivemind made me think there is something else going (maybe she finally pissed off whatever lasting goodwill she had with the mod team and she is not bothering anymore).

Judging from their polls those numbers should be in reverse.

[cosmicblizzard]

I still feel like it's just a matter of time before someone is petty enough to take down the entire site over a ban and Ketkat is certainly one of the people I expect to help do it.  Maybe utilize Robin to expose some dirt on the mods back when she was on staff.  This amount of resentment isn't just gonna evaporate considering the kind of people we're talking about, and Era isn't anywhere near "too big to fail" status.

[james]

That's why you never hire women as mods

Look at the bore. All sausage no drama

[VomKriege]

Can we also stop pretending that women can't be sexist, and men can't care about sexism? Because I remain skeptical that "it doesn't affect you so why do you care" is a very solid argument to defend sexualization.

OK now that a ban has concluded the argument, we can go back to pretending.

This may require some slight code update. The emoji suggestions should include a non-binary gender.

For example, typing ":shrugging" only lists man and woman, but not "person_shrugging." 🤷

I would go even further and suggest that women get listed before men. ✨

(...)

Even iOS and Windows only suggest gendered emoji when looking up items. 🤦

Any update on this

The erasure keeps hurting.

Also, if this forum is open source, I'd contribute.

So. We're getting Trump and "cancel culture" themed ads. Nothing actually site breaking, but is there any way to blacklist ads like that from showing? They are pretty gross.

I'm really hoping Michelle Wolf isn't doing what it looks like in this situation because I'm a big fan of hers and I'm not about to be tacitly endorsing Louis CK.

you said it yourself, you're a big fan. you're the one who gave her the base to achieve a platform where she can spread hatred through endorsement of evil individuals.

you did that, you fucking monster.

[remy]

ket kat flew too close to the sun. went after oni link, the staff for lying about software limitations, in the tech thread, the and a verfafied dipshit in bullshit women criticize sexualised designs thread (aka. slut shaming mysogyny thread)  in the space of like 1 day.

i wonder if they realise the only reason she does this now is because of her bullshit ban eariler. they made their own problem 

[Averon]

Get off your high horse. While I don't agree with Ket, it's not your place to mansplain sexism to her. Don't deify yourself as some sort of bastion of male allyship by trying to get ahead of the scores of other folks in the thread who could offer a take without your position of privilege.
 

This wasn't the conversation you were having or attitude you were addressing though so using this framing now seems poor even in a good light.

Whether you should say something to someone who uses "feminazi" or calls women sluts or not is completely irrelevant because the conversation went nowhere near that. Appealing to an extreme while lamenting the difficulty in educating women on issues of sexism as a man is off regardless of your stance on the costume itself.

Welltall thought he was being a good male ally in that thread, even daring to mansplain to another woman, Ketkat. Doesn't look like it was appreciated though. Got reminded that he's, first and foremost, a man in their eyes 

[Pissy F Benny]

So one of the biggest loons on there got banned for making reasonable points

So I was feeling a little bad because I feel that we all get the vibe that something is very wrong, but we all seem to be offering contradictory solutions. Please understand that the lack of consensus on an answer does not mean that there isn’t a problem.

With that said, what the fricking hell is this? It’s flat out racist, and the refusal to call it as such tells us that you’d happily throw us all under the bus for a video game “celebrity”.

Jayc3, Admin:

Caught this before bed. We could absolutely have been clearer here. We've reviewed the ban, agreed that it needs more than what was given, and we've updated the banner accordingly. Our apologies for this error.

I find it funny how most agree capitalism is evil but then you have large portions of the forum doing free advertisement for Nintendo and Disney

[Nintex]

The biggest 2 megatons for me, hands down.

1. Twilight Princess
LOTR was the biggest thing and Nintendo announced a realistic LOTR inspired Zelda game. "One more world for Nintendo GameCube".
They used their common Zelda trailer song too, which was always epic.

2. Smash Bros. Brawl
E3 that year was wild. Nintendo had shown Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3 and a bunch of other games.
The day after the Nintendo press briefing the press was huddled into a small room and Sakurai announced Smash Bros. Brawl starring Snake.
At first nobody believed it when photo's of the meeting leaked out until the panel was over and they announced it 'officially'

I also recall Bioshock Infinite making a big splash as well as Final Fantasy going multiplatform but nothing will ever come close to TP and Brawl.
The only thing that has recently come close was the announcement of Half-Life Alyx.

I just realized when I think of people being banned from forums my mental image is some troll kid



I mean this is the kind of person who lacks the emotional maturity to have a reasonable conversation without being an assole and/or dipshit

but more and more era is populated by this sort of person



how often is it actually this guy getting banned?

I'm picturing them all pissed at the ban and sputtering to their wife about what's made them so upset
