It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

How's everyone else doing?

One regret I have about this game is that I sold it some years ago and realized what a huge mistake that was. The game is charming and it felt pretty nostalgic playing it on my PS1 long ago.

Not sure what compelled me to sell it. When I browse at how much it costs the lowest is almost 100 dollars nowadays.

If anything, I might buy it yet again to add it back to my collection. For now I will just dwell on memories of fascination and regret.

Current Mood: contemplative

Man, gaming seems harsher as time goes on. Doesn't help when companies like Nintendo are pretty harsh themselves when it comes to their own games. Seemingly this guy bought Switch 1 games on a Facebook marketplace and tried them on his Switch 2 console, updating them from their site to have them running. Sometime later bans him for trying out said games and when calling Nintendo he got notice that said games were pirated allegedly, to which the person in question went on providing evidence tha he got them legitimately.

Well the thing was that if the Switch reads a game you own twice, it might be seen as a pirated one, which still sounds ludicrous. I know Nintendo can be so paranoid and defensive about their games in business but damn.
