Why are they all so flat?!

In this day and age it should cost practically nothing to translate weather reports into other languages. As always, cruelty and the chance to grift money is the point.

Visually stunning and a very catchy song too. I found myself watching it at least once every 2-3 episodes while binging.

Exactly this. It's way too soon for Nintendo to try and push this price up again. For the first time in a long time, I'm sitting out this console gen.

I have to imagine that's a poorly written sentence meant to convey how renowned the Minecraft franchise/game is, not necessarily the movie yet.

Where did I say $90?

Look into it

I delayed my preorder when I saw the bullshit price gouging for game prices.

Same boat. I love my switch. Their direct said all the right things. New Mario kart looks great. I have faith meteoid and that new dk game will be fun. But the pricing makes it a no go. There's just no way I'm going to pony up that much for one game.

I think it looked great. More variety, bigger races, a world to play around in, etc those are all winning ideas from where I'm sitting. Adding something like wall jumps fits in the Mario universe and could add some interesting skips on courses and things. I was very excited after that trailer.

Of course now that pricing has been revealed, all of that excitement has been sucked out of the room for me. I've got a Steam Deck in the mail right now and that's probably going to be it for me this next gen. Metroid 4 for the OG Switch might be my last Nintendo purchase

They're not the only company pulling this but at least they put up the disclaimer. I got a "free delivery offer" on another app a few weeks ago. Logged in, made my order, noticed it was higher than when I order pickup on my way home from work. Look closer, and sure enough, there's no delivery fee but all the item prices were higher. It's bait and switch and should be illegal.

7 in the Bible is usually a symbol

It is very likely to really be a 7 years limit

Is it just me, or these don't seem to jive with each other.

Not that I think anything in the Bible can be taken at face value, but especially numbers and doubly so, the number 7.

World created in 7 days. Forgive others 7 times or 70*7. Etc etc. There's no reason to believe the law of the land was literally a 7 year limit on slavery.
