Don't sweat it, you just unfortunately tripped up on a VERY charged word lol. Again, your advice is good! Getting the body moving and cardiovascular/pulmonary systems cranking is good for waking up and feeling energized. Showers just feel damn good too.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone describe taking a shower as “removing impurities” but hey if that’s your intended meaning then cool!

For your future reference, “impurities” is kind of a catchall, meaningless term that health quacks throw around. “Do a juice cleanse, it’ll remove your impurities and toxins.”

There’s nothing to evaluate. Megathreads were designed to kill topics on Reddit (unless it was a MAJOR, developing, current event) and they do the same here. You’re the first person to comment at all in this thread in over a month.

I like the suggestion overall because it actually is pretty medically sound, but “impurities“ is just a meaningless term. You have a liver/kidney/etc. to get unwanted things out of your body. Diets and sweating doesn’t “remove” toxins or impurities or whatever buzzword is bouncing around the crunchy world .

Yeah but 360/PS3 were barely pulling 720p @30fps so it wasn’t as stark. Lots of games couldn’t even 720p.

It wasn’t just marketing fail. They failed to get developers on board and failed to player test adequately, a mistake that Nintendo consistently makes in cycles. N64 and Gamecube should’ve taught them but finally it seems with Switch they’ve gotten the message.

The Wii-U is fine but severely underpowered and the tablet was very limited in range and capability. I have one and enjoy it but it simply wasn’t impressive from a hardware standpoint and it wasn’t clear what you were supposed to do with it as an end user. Sony & Microsoft also ironed out their online gaming experience while Nintendo continue to flounder. That was a really important market in the 2010s and they completely failed to capture any of it.

The PS4/Xbox one just blew it out of the water performance wise. The tech gap was too wide (the CPU was a serious bottleneck) and it was a pain to develop for them when you could just develop for PC and/or PS4 and/or Xbox.

I would be very curious to compare games sold per console (preferably year by year). I imagine the Wii had a big drop off and maybe even sold fewer games per console than 360/PS3. If for no other reason than it had a library half the size of them. Both consoles had over 2000 games IIRC and Wii had just over 1000.

It's just so needlessly hostile and shitty, right?

So much garbage released on Wii. Really harkened back Nintendo’s roots lol. I love the Wii and it has a lot of great releases but it really felt like 30% of the catalog was shovelware.

Honestly, what I find weird is that they seem to think Nintendo wasn’t somehow responsible for the disaster that was the Wii-U. Like only had to respond to it and had no role in its failure. It’s very odd and I’m assuming it’s not the intention so I’m seeking clarity here.
