    Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

    I'm very confused by the fact that you think that's a compelling point. I'm asking why the sky is blue and you're like, how do you expect to understand the complexities of subjective experience? Like, okay dude. For the sake of everyone else in this thread, I'm going to cancel this double-IQ...

    Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

    That's great and all but like, GPU scaling is blurry and the issue with the Nintendo scaling is exclusively that it's blurry. I'm being genuine when I say I don't get what you're talking about. What taste do you have that's satisfied by GPU scaling that was not satisfied by the default? I'm...

    Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

    I can't tell what's going on with GPU scaling. It just looks blurrier to me than the default. I've heard people say it looks good, so I'm confused by it when I look at it. Sono's Crisp Tweaked is the second-best filter imo, but if you look closer at the geometries of sprites, it's still not...

    What about it did you not like? It's barely that different tbh.

    Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

    My two cents is this. Linear Sharpen 1 is the only filter that maintains the geometry and shapes of everything, especially 2D hud elements/sprites, to a level that passes my standards. It's also not a "huge" change, but it does sharpen the image a little, which is nice. Anything else, even...

    Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

    So, some people say GPU scaling is a "blurry mess" and I've seen on other forums people saying it's the best option. Why the discrepency? what are the settings that need to be changed for it to look good?

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    I don't know why this always becomes a "moral" argument. I don't know how Nintendo treats its employees. Does anyone? Their corporate reporting in the West is basically zero. This is not a moral thing. It's about consumer value and consistent standards. Not doing microtransactions in full...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    Agreed. Let's get past the "austism rant," please. Apparently it's something the Nintendrones do now when they can't think of another way to disagree. I didn't realize what I was getting into, and I apologize to the rest of the thread for prolonging it. Exactly! That's the point I've been...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    Raising the price of games to $70-80, with no sales, and offering digital versions for $10 less doesn't qualify as "lowering the prices" to anyone really, except the Nintendrones. When you love something, you protect it. You want the best for it. I see a future where if Nintendo keeps treating...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    "The economy" does not force them to raise prices or lower value. We're paying $70 for digital copies of 6-hour games because people are willing to "explain" why the multi-billion-dollar company "has" to do that on a product with insane profit margins already. The economy is their opportunity...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    I'm not a ... Sony/Microsoft consumer? I'm a Nintendo consumer. In addition to not knowing when you're being starved, you're a little hard of hearing too. I think this is futile. The real problem is that you think consuming something means you need to advocate for every part of it. You don't...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    Well, it's no wonder Nintendo can get away with such obvious consumer hostility like price hikes, surcharges for framerate, $10 pack-in titles, remote-bricked consoles, key cards, etc. If this is who their consumers are, expecting them to change is like expecting a dog to report not being fed...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    ... yes? That would be because the MSRP is $80, because that's how the modern industry works ... the MSRP is high, the graphics investment is high, the DRM is high, but the sales are high. So, high, high, high, high. Nintendo is saying, high MSRP, LOW technology investment, high DRM, LOW sales...

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    If I go on the PS Store right now to buy Spider-Man 2 Digital Deluxe ($80), it's $40. THAT'S how it's been for this entire generation. If you can't see the difference between 50% off and 10% off, I can't help you. You're not thinking clearly.

    Digital Nintendo-published titles to be cheaper than physical releases going forwards

    That's true. I forget sometimes that I'm in a small minority. However, games on Steam for example are MSRP $60-$70 too when they're big games. You can't honestly say that Steam and the Nintendo eshop are interchangeable in the discussion of pricing. The difference is that when Nintendo makes a...
