7:00 PMSusanne Christ​GameStop does list their food as “new” on the price tag hahah xD

7:00 PMmatthew wilson​I will ask ezk what I asked you on twitter. do you think we need a new 2d metriod game from nintendo, given there are soo many excellent metriod style games out?

7:01 PMjordan thompson​what annoys me is when sellers write on the game, a pawn shop near me sharpies on every one of their games to categorize them

7:01 PMjack cayman​use steam to get stickers off

7:01 PMaddictedtochaos​I would reprimand my employees if they did that.

7:02 PMjack cayman​also Andrew before the stream starts, have you tried playing the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series?

7:02 PMaddictedtochaos​And they get robbed blind

7:03 PMjordan thompson​blockbuster survived doing that for a while

7:03 PMNightmare Ninja​I hate it when they do that

7:04 PMaddictedtochaos​Rubbing alcohol and elbow grease will remove marker.

7:04 PMNightmare Ninja​i have

7:04 PMjordan thompson​the pawn shop is ran by 50 year olds and they sell mostly guns and appliances so I can see why they wouldnt pay much attention to the care of video games

7:07 PMmatthew wilson​nindento learned the hard way not to try pulling anything passed metriod fans

7:08 PMaddictedtochaos​Because everyone else called “not it”

7:08 PMmatthew wilson​on a side not, notice most gamers werent upset, turns out a little transparancy goes a long way games indastry

7:08 PMSusanne Christ​prob bc most people expected iy

7:09 PMNightmare Ninja​Rumor was that they made a demo to show Nintendo to work on it

7:10 PMjack cayman​metroid prime 4 2022

7:10 PMmatthew wilson​I am surprised they didnt just canceled it, no just smash ultamite has almost passed life time sales of all metriod games combined’

7:11 PMaddictedtochaos​Rumors are saying not before 2022

7:11 PMjack cayman​S.T.A.L

7:22 PMmatthew wilson​still say the current best 2d metriod style game is ori

7:22 PMAndrew Eisen​Is the second one out yet or is that still coming?

7:22 PMmatthew wilson​too bad the 3ds one got overshadowed by a better fan remake
