It’s always on a Wednesday when my mood takes a nosedive. Why?
Ho ho, Papi’s hit 420 followers……I wonder if something should be done….
Honestly that argument isn’t very strong? The United States spends WAY MORE on health care than any other country in the world, topping the Nords whom invest heavily in it AND have free health care. Not only that, but even though you spend more, your citizens aren’t better cared for. So it’s obviously not a problem of funding.
Honestly, I ain’t American so all I can say is “Europe this, free that”, but if you ask me: With just a little glimpse of how it works in the US I’d say that the only reason why free healthcare isn’t viable is simply because of the insurance system you guys have embedded both in your culture and society. It wouldn’t stand as a surprise if the insurance industry was putting barriers everywhere in order to make free healthcare not viable in America.
That’s actually largely true. Many politicians, especially in Congress, end up getting a LOT of political funding from insurance companies and from pharmaceutical companies, which encourages them to prevent any legislation from passing that might harm those backers.
It’s not that we don’t have the money, it’s that our budgeting priorities are extremely backwards and stupid.

I think they have 2 new games sceduled for later this year. Late summer might be a bad time to release new stuff with xmas only a few weeks away
They have Yoshi’s Wooly World which is released in total on October 16th, though it’s apparently been available since June in several markets and received mediocre reviews, and Xenoblade X, which was released in FEBRUARY in Japan. That’s it. No third party support, and one of their only third party exclusives having just jumped ship to the other consoles through porting. Besides, the initial issue was that all that they’re doing for Mario’s 30th anniversary is putting out Mario Maker and nothing else to show love for the plumber, and that’s still the case.

it’s not surprising, game dev takes ages and they usually only have a year or 2 to make a game from start to finish. making something simple like this is quicker
Which might be a decent excuse, if Mario Maker wasn’t playable on the floor of E3 LAST YEAR, and Nintendo’s known about this being Mario’s 30th anniversary for some time.
I think what upsets me the most about Mario Maker isn’t that it’s been done before in many ways on many platforms, but that it’s all that Nintendo’s doing for Mario’s 30th anniversary and we could have had a compilation of classics like Sunshine and Galaxy remastered, or a new Mario game altogether. Just imagine a 3D Mario platformer with the graphical engine of Mario Kart 8!
