    Miiverse on the Wii U. Every games felt like a community. You could share tips, screenshots, etc… some games even had integrations like chat bubbles in Mario Maker. I always went out of my way to pick up a message in a bottle in Windwaker.

    When they shut it down, the console main screen felt VERY empty and each players, very alone (You can spare the jokes about how we were alone anyway since it didn’t sell well)

    Not “technically” discontinued, but almost

    Buying products and owning them.

    Buying products and getting full repair manuals and electrical schematics

    Cathode ray tubes

    Overbuilt refrigerators and washing machines

    Clothes that last and are repairable

    Houses built with full bricks and iron with actual straight walls and unbroken woodwork

      People will inevitably come in here saying “whatabout the Maverick and Colorado?” but those trucks are all the size of full size HDs from 30 years ago.

      Edit: don’t even get me started on the Tacoma bloat, the “only mid-size truck on that market” which is the same size as a Humvee.

          Indeed. I have a (parked for the past year, need major suspension work but w/e) S10 which is honestly perfect for me. I know that even in the 90s it was seen as a “mini” truck, but it’s carried everything I’ve ever needed to haul

            If the made them again I’d buy one for sure. I had one I high school but the transmission went out so I traded it in for a Civic (which I still have). I love the car but it’s annoying having to borrow my dad’s truck every couple weekends when I need to haul stuff and I hate driving it because it handles like a school bus and I’m too short to see over the front end.

    The Logitech K800 keyboard. I swear by them, had 5 of them over the course of like more then a decade.

    Super soft illuminated keys, super nice to work with, I have the last one here on my desk and I can’t find new ones anymore.

    They were quite pricey, around 80-100 dollars, but man it was nice while it lasted

      New keyboard every couple of years sounds like a shitty keyboard. Why not change to something with better build quality?

        Looks down at his second-hand, 13 year old HP 5309U product code GM321AA and thinks "Damn dude. Sure my keyboard has nine keys that are worn so much that most are missing the print on them. And sure, it’s not a mechanical keyboard. But I didn’t have to spend a dime for it and it’s still working just fine for me.

        I have that sound effect play by a switch by my bed that turns the room into Fuck Mode, blacklights, lava lamps, and a silicone Snit mask

    F-ZERO. Most innovative racing series of all time. F-ZERO 99 is cute and all, but high-speed was never the same after 2003. Aero GPX proves the most promising project since, and it is good.

    Coyote vs Acme

    The movie is already completely finished, but some “genius” thinks that they’ll make more money by shelving it and claiming it for a tax-writeoff.
