Why have forums *including this one and similar types* have morphed into news links and news bots now hindering all discussion?

a possible winter storm next week!

That's good camping weather. Do the whole man vs. nature thing. Or go to an abortion rally, you know those chicks put out.

Video games are alright. Just finished Horizon Forbidden West and the wife finally picked up Animal Crossing after deciding those Nintendo fucks were never going to lower the price.

I like the news. What more important things could you talk about besides major happenings in the world? This stuff affects us. Boobs and cat stuff are pretty popular here too though. Also highly important.

Nintendo thinks they are 'Apple' of video games. This is why Commodore was so popular it was more then just a game machine it was a total computer for less then 1000$ WAY Less. It quickly dropped to 300$ and did more then the IBM did. Way more programs to choose from especially if you could connect to Loadstar Tower. Back then people would write a program and sell it in sandwich baggies. Ironically when a game got released you'd get all versions of it with the package. IE: If it was a port from Apple you got disks for Apple also so you'd have this wad of floppy disks for different computer systems.

Keywords: COMputer systems. Not game machines.
