Does Bob get up to much these days? Besides tweeting virtue signals from the comfort of his safe space while pandering to feminists who wouldn't touch him if their lives depended on it.

I do sort of see his point; the problem with video game history as a whole is that it's not as easily accessible as say books or movies. You want to watch a movie from the 1940s? Just get the DVD. Classic book from the 1800s? Same thing. Video games on the other hand aren't that simple. If you want to play, say, Donkey Kong Country, you need to buy an actual SNES in order to play the game, or at least a device that can play the cartridge. This is why emulation has become so big, because it allows you to play virtually everything but at the cost of not playing it on a device (which is why I'm personally not a fan). So classic gaming boils down to buying the device and the game, purchasing and downloading it on a modern gaming platform, or just downloading a free emulator and a free ROM.

However, what I don't agree with is the idea that the industry is only keeping a few well-known available. Have you seen the PS2 classics section on PSN? Some of those games are cult classics that didn't sell well. Hell, Nintendo's done a really solid job with having obscure games on their Virtual Console. The issue then isn't so much just selling the big classic games and more to do with the ongoing debate about whether it's worth buying or just downloading it for free.

It's unfortunately just a side effect of how video games work. Video games are probably the only medium that are directly tied in to how they are displayed (whatever console they come out on). With films, they can just continue to come out on new platforms. VHS tapes are obsolete and VCR's are no longer being sold? Cool, I will just buy it on Blu-Ray or buy it on some digital service like Amazon.

Video games? Well, they are directly tied in to whatever platform they are on. As new platforms get released, the older ones fade out and the games that came with them naturally are forgotten about. If your smart, you just hold onto all your old games and their platforms so you can continue playing them.
 
So Trump announced his pulling the US out of the Iran Deal. I wonder if Bob’s sperging on this will be bigger than both the DACA and Paris Clinate Agreement or not.

many of these old consoles are easy to emulate,but boy,the lack of Nintendo 64 love from Nintendo pisses me off.
It's emulation is still not perfect on PCs and it's flashcarts are pretty pricey(though it's still cheaper than trying to hunt down every single N64 game in existence)so Nintendo could take advantage of that,but they don't,even if they can't release 99% of the games Rare made for the console(with Goldeneye being an even worse legal can of worms),there's still tons of good games missing from both Wii and Wii U's Eshop.
Hell,the Wii had a bigger N64 library than the Wii U's(which only got about two games that weren't on the Wii.),and you can no longer buy then on the Wii.Hell,next year you can't even the download the shit you bought.Thank god modding and piracy will help preserve those Wii Ware and VC games...

Finding out that the world doesn't give a shit about Mario 3.

But Trump was put into office in seemingly the most uncorrupt way, possibly since Teddy Roosevelt, who was originally made McKinnley’s Vice President as a means to ensure that he wouldn’t be the real president(only for a based assassin to appear really early on).

Can we stop with the medium bullshit like games are art? Video games are toys. They always have been, they always will be. Just like movies are sideshow attractions used to sell popcorn. Nobody cares about video gaming history unless it’s for a press release of if a “journalist” wants to sound like they know stuff. They are expensive toys they make a ton of money, but they are still toys in the end. There’s is no difference from a YouTube let’s play of Mario 3, and a video of some depressed fat man playing with his childhood G.I. Joes. Which might be the perfect description of Bob. A fat, depressed, middle aged man trying to play “me too” with every community possible to avoid the inevitable blade running down the street
 
Okay. What.

What the hell would exactly make this a good '2001' remake? I hate to sound nostalgic, but what's the need to remake 2001? It's been 17 years since then after all.
Nothing and Hollywood is lazy. Oh and here's something Blobbo doesn't know: Those Marvel A Space Odyssey comics? One of the characters (the android whose fther/creator gets killed by other humans) is brought back in the Alternate universe Earth-X and there'sa character (the Uatu of that story) is almost like Bob in alot of way and guess what? He's portrayed as evil

In other words, get fucked Blobbo

The whole POINT of campaigning is to convince the electorate WHY they should vote for you. Say what you want about Trump, but at least he gave voters ACTUAL, CONCRETE FUCKING REASONS as to why voters should get behind him. Acting like they owe your their vote solely because "at least I'm not that guy" and "first woman president" will get you FUCKING NOWHERE. And until Pork-Chop Pinochet and his butt buddies in the DNC realize that, they're gonna keep getting their asses kicked every election day.

Especially if Blob and his DNC buddies keep demonizing Trump supporters and rely too much on the Russian hysteria even if the Muller probe is going nowhere at the moment.

Another thing that I argue will turn a lot of people off is the whole gun control nonsense Bob and the Democrats keep sperging on about, especially if they have those Parkland kids everyone is sick of already like David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez talk nonsense about it.

Bob and the SJWs need to realize that they destroying the Democratic Party more than they did in the 2016 election.

It's okay, we're going to wait for the inevitable time where Michigan and Wisconsin die off and make way for the Master Race. Totally going to happen.
 
So, I'm wondering what Bob will think of the new Han Solo movie due in two weeks. While I'm not wanting this to fail, why do I get bad vibes from the movie based on the behind the scenes drama and that Disney apparently isn't happy with it?
Disney probably doesn't like that isn't promotingthe sjw agenda like TLJ did

It has a Female Droid who is vocal about Droid oppression he'll love it but whine it should had been a Lando film. Sadly if the rumors are true about how bad the Solo actor is he'd be right about it being a Lando film but even a broken clock is right twice a day.
I hate say this but Droids complaining about Droid oppression predate the solo movie by years/decades

What do you guys think Blob will have to say about Deadpool 2? $20 says he bitches about dudebros liking it at some point.
I liked the first one and almost certainly will like the sequel, i'll drink Blobbo salty impotent rage tears
