Thanks, I hadn't heard about this until now and was able to grab a copy.

RPGs in the style of the Ultima games, specifically ones that use a keyword-based conversion system. Aside from the Ultima series itself, the only other examples I know of that use a system like this are Cythera - a 1990s Macintosh shareware game that was very similar to Ultima 6 and 7 - and The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind.
Sounds like Threads has lost the thread...
I'll see myself out.
Nintendo has never been very successful going after the high-end market.
This is 100% correct and worth emphasizing, since I think a lot of people don't understand Nintendo's history with this.
They tried to aim for a more premium console with the N64 and the Gamecube, and the result was Sony ate their lunch. Then they came out with the Wii -- widely derided for being underpowered and gimmicky -- and it was a hugely popular financial success. Nintendo knows by now what works for them and what doesn't.
I used a dumbphone up until 2017. I actually still have it, it's just not hooked up to service anymore. I can still turn it on and play Galaga or Final Fantasy I and II though!
I heard Alien Ant Farm's cover of Smooth Criminal way before I ever heard the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDl9ZMfj6aE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_D3VFfhvs4
Also, Anthrax's Got the Time turned out to be a Joe Jackson cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=be7iNHw8QoQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTIPCc1nKYQ
I never pass up an opportunity to link this article: CEOs are hugely expensive. Why not automate them?
Steam Controller is a flawed masterpiece that I wish we had gotten another iteration of.
Also, speaking of the 8bitdo Pro 2 line, the wired Xbox version of the Pro 2 is pretty great. It's similar to the regular Pro 2, but it has analog triggers, uses Xinput, and has Xbox coloring and branding. It's like they took the best parts of Xbox, SNES, and Playstation controllers and mushed them all together.
