I'm not sure if we're agreeing or not. I was only talking about physical, and Amazon, Argos, etc. always sell for cheaper than Nintendo's webstore. I sure hope physical games aren't being phased out, but maybe this price difference between digital and physical is just reflecting that digital distribution is cheaper for Nintendo than producing physical carts.
It might be £75 of buying direct from Nintendo, but it will be less from other sellers. But £75 is a really high starting point. Hopefully prices still go below £50.
I got pulled into the lemmy post about the movie called My anime waifu or something starring Simon Pegg. I don't know, it just sounds like something he might do
I do actually have one spare Gengar ex. The only thing I'm missing is a Darkrai ex? I was planning to keep on opening more STS packs later to get it, but not sure it will ever come, so I'll just give up and try trading.
I was actually feeling a bit unlucky before but yesterday I pulled the shiny Wugtrio ex, and this morning got the immersive Giratina, so it's not too bad.
There's PTCG Live, which is basically the digital implementation of the physical game with the exact same cards and rules. The real-life booster packs usually come with a QR code to scan in Live that gives you a digital pack to open.
Pocket is like a casual version of the real TCG, with simplified battle rules for quicker games, and there's more of a focus on collecting than just battling. Because of the different rules, you can't just reuse the real TCG cards in Pocket, so the cards are unique to Pocket, but there's sometimes reuse of the artwork.
I started watching his videos after someone linked one here, and what he says about a wealth tax seems to be almost obvious, it's amazing there's no mainstream drive for it. He does kind of explain why in some other videos. Really hope it gets enough traction to become mainstream (because otherwise our lives are just going to get worse), and I'm happy he's getting airtime to voice it.
Yeah, he's been there for a year now. He's probably the biggest name to ever play in Korea, and there was a huge amount of interest in him at the start, but he's really settled and it feels normal to see him now.
To give context, the guy who scored the banger (Jeong Seung-won) for FC Seoul ran to the other end of the pitch to the away end. Daegu is his former club (although he's been at two other clubs before joining Seoul) and it ended badly - I thought he would have let it go by now, but obviously not.
The guy who scored the last goal (Moon Seon-min) - that's just his trademark celebration and I love it. E.g.,
Ah, okay. I only got a switch in 2020 or 2021, so I rarely bought newly released games.
