sorry to hear the family is all down. When are you scheduled to depart?
Just found out my niece hit a fever of 105 this week... seems like it's been going around

Just heard the tale of a friend's uncle (former nasa scientist) who, when applying to work at Northrop Grumman, encrypted his resume and nobody could open it.... He got the job.

That one sounds a little farfetched unless there was something else that got him the job in addition to the resume.

What do Pokémon have to do with this?

Have to agree. You'd just send them gibberish if you wanted to do that. Making something unusable is trivial. This just implies NG is a big joke and will hire anyone.

Just saw this. Perfect for so many SW discussions.

Gotta leave Saturday to go to the airport. Sunday we get on the flight to Oslo. Will be in Rome on Sunday night late.

Goodness... Hope everybody starts feeling better!

There is literally nothing about the Nintendo Switch that I find intriguing.

Not even how Nintendo can stay afloat after releasing crap product after crap product for years on end?

I have been wondering that myself - I just wonder if they are doing something in Japan that is keeping them upright.

I would think that the iPad/App Store one-two punch would have taken them out. I mean, how many video game options do toddlers really need, anyway?

Their handheld market is crazy. Not sure how long they will be on top there though with iOS and Android devices making it super easy to game on the road.

I've come to feel the same about Sony. They were such a great company back in the day, but I think in the last 25 years they must get something right just often enough to keep the doors open. Such a shame.

The number of devices is definitely reducing. The day of the specialize device (on one hand) seems to be greatly reducing.
But then I look at things like the Amazon Echo or the Google what's it called? the home? well these are specialize devices, so I guess I don't know what I'm talking about
-
To be fair I like some of their IPs. Super Mario Galaxy was decent and I really enjoyed the most recent Zelda games, Ocarina, Majora's Mask, and Wind Waker. But basically anything released since the Game Cube (and most stuff on the Game Cube for that matter) has been utter crap. I even liked Luigi's Mansion.

Services are definitely something that a lot of these old school companies are moving too.
MS is moving away from the one time sold software that has to be repurchased (upgraded) every few years to a rent forever model. Combine that with online services and you have a practically new company.
