This often coincides with a Steam sale too. I'm sure it sucks to be an early adopter, but that's true for a lot of other games given the tendency of practically everyone to release them in a bug-ridden state these days. Sega still unfortunately has many games where they haven't removed Denuvo, sadly. I think it took them about a year and half after launch to remove it from Sonic Mania, for that matter, so you may end up waiting for some time.

I can hang on and they can get used to waiting if they want my money. I didn't pick up Sonic Mania until it was in a Humble Bundle, for what it's worth. 😀 It does seem to vary from game to game though and both the Two Point ones had it removed in the first patch.

You are misinformed. There are other options for controllers besides the joycons. I just got my Switch back in May of this year and one of my first purchases was THIS: It's got a Dpad on it and works great for all the retro titles on the system.

Wayler Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I miss Mr Me, this conversation is now too coherent and based in reality. Shouldn't we be talking about how totally the FCC certs should have passed? And how it's super not a scam because no one made any money. 2 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeefy Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Look for news soon that DJC and other YT faithful will get "production units". Only 25 made possibly. Can't refund people's money, can't give them Founder units, but they can give them to YTers they promised them to to rave about it and hopefully get more investment dollars. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveTheColecoDude Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) DJC is an investor, surely giving him a console to give a glowing review (because that's obviously what he will do) is too shady and scummy for even Intellivision to do? Oh well, if that's what happens, hopefully the necessary people are aware of it. Edited August 26, 2022 by SteveTheColecoDude 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_B Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) Given DJC's paltry audience, most of which are surely just there for the lulz, they're surely not going to think that giving him one is going to spur on a rash of new investment or even pre-orders? If they were actually capable of making fully functional preview units, they'd certainly seem better off putting them in the hands of channels with lots of subscribers. They'd need to be anticipating particularly poor reviews for that not to be the better strategy, at least. There'd need to be some other reason (perhaps legal arse covering?) for them to do so.

So anyone that goes on Amico Forever have incentive to not be critical of it. Intellivision never said they were going to make 25 of them and DJC let that slip. Supposedly he was on FB already saying they aren't going to be hand assembled units. Guess they are going to try and call them Founder Editions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to be more likable, like Mr. Beefy, I hear a rumor he is changing his name to Mr. Meat. Once that happens Mr. Meat will be un-beatable.

Almost like a way to get out misinformation and not held accountable. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Pendleton Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I hate what Youtube has become, which is why I rarely use it, and when I do, I use it for educational purposes (Forgotten Weapons, etc.). It was way better before Google bought it and turned it into the zombie that is is now, but it probably would have become this way anyway after a while. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
