Hello @SEGA , this is a Sega fan speaking. A die-hard fan who still owns Master System games. On the left is the ONLY Sega game I've ever bought on Switch 2: Sonic Racing Crossworld for €65. On the right are all the games I would have bought if you had offered them as full cartridges. I would have spent over €600. You've lost over €500 just from me by choosing to release your games as game key cards. Don't you think it's time to take action? Because I'm far from the only one...

At the time, Starfox on SNES in 1993 was an epic game. Did you play it?

My issue is we didn’t NEED Rosalina to be captured. The main plot of the game is her grand stars are being stolen, and that would have been a perfectly good reason to stop bowser/jr like in the games, using them as a source of power to destroy the universe

This is wild how the White House is repeatedly using Nintendo’s IP’s and for the first time the Nintendo Ninjas are 🤫 . This time they are using Mario Galaxy to commemorate the recent space shuttle launch.

Tesla needs to continue to evolve their Self-Driving pricing model to increase adoption. With a product this good, sales should be going vertical. It's time to ask some hard questions about what's not working. What do you all think?

@anishmoonka Buying epic before the video game crash when they will be forced to lay off thousands is insane!

Disney paid $7 billion for Pixar, $4 billion for Marvel, $4 billion for Star Wars, and $71 billion for 21st Century Fox. The executive who personally closed all four of those deals just went on CNBC and said Disney's next buy should be Epic Games, the company that makes Fortnite. His name is Kevin Mayer. He ran Disney's deal-making for over a decade. The resume speaks for itself. He's not alone. Tech reporter Alex Heath said on The Town podcast that he knows "for a fact" senior people inside Disney want to buy Epic and are waiting for the right moment. Other Disney executives apparently think it's a terrible idea. Look at the timing, though. Epic just cut over 1,000 jobs on March 24. That's roughly 20% of the company, gone in a single memo. CEO Tim Sweeney told staff they're "spending significantly more than we're making" because Fortnite has been losing players since 2025. Tracking firm Circana found the average Fortnite player on PlayStation went from 21 hours a month to 16 in just one year. Disney already put $1.5 billion into Epic back in February 2024, buying roughly 7% of the company when it was valued at $22.5 billion. That valuation was already down from $31.5 billion two years earlier. I ran the numbers on a full buyout: it would cost about 13% of Disney's market value today ($167 billion). Disney paid $4 billion for Marvel in 2009. Marvel's movies alone have grossed over $30 billion worldwide since then. Disney actually tried to buy EA (Madden, FIFA) in 2023. Didn't happen. EA is now being sold to a Saudi-backed group for $55 billion. That ship sailed. Epic, with Fortnite bringing in an estimated $5 to $6 billion a year and its software (called Unreal Engine) already running 15+ Disney theme park rides and games like Kingdom Hearts 3, probably makes more sense for Disney anyway. The problem is one person. Tim Sweeney founded Epic in 1991 and still controls the majority of votes despite owning only about 41% of the company. He can block any deal he wants, and he's been pretty clear about wanting to stay independent. Tencent, the Chinese tech giant, owns another 40%, which means the U.S. government would have to review the deal due to the Chinese ownership stake. That alone could drag on for years. Disney has tried making its own games. It went badly. They built an in-house studio and made a game called Disney Infinity, which actually sold well for a while. Then the economics fell apart, and Disney shut the whole thing down in 2016. Three hundred people lost their jobs. Between 2008 and 2012, their gaming division burned through over $200 million a year. If Disney wants to get into gaming on a real scale, buying is the only option. And Epic is having its worst financial stretch in years.

Star Wars actor John Boyega explained why he doesn’t watch Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones in 2017: “There are no Black people in Game of Thrones,” he said. “You don’t see one Black person in Lord of the Rings. I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen. Thoughts?

REPORTER: "Pope Leo said yesterday, and I quote him, 'God does not listen to the prayer of those who waged war.' Can you comment on that?" KAROLINE LEAVITT: "Our nation was a nation founded 250 years ago, almost, on Judeo-Christian values. And we’ve seen, presidents, we’ve seen, the leaders of the Department of War, and we’ve seen our troops go to prayer, during the most turbulent times in our nation’s history." "I don’t think there’s anything wrong with our military leaders or with the president calling on the American people to pray for our service members and those who are serving our country overseas. In fact, I think it’s a very noble thing to do."
