Bit later than usual.
So glad to be done with the early shift for the next 4 weeks now.
Next week I have the day shift, so I won't be able to post much at all for a couple of days.

Spent a bit too long working in the garden this afternoon, so I'm even more exhausted than usual. 😅

Anyway, todays release is the very last issue of ONM:

Official Nintendo Magazine 114 - December 2014 (UK)

@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill also #BlackBerry's #PlayBook #Tablet was released as a accessory screen for their Phones, which gave it "#WiiU-Effect" in terms of marketing.

  • Plus #RIM relying hard on business clients and their proprietary applianced mail systems and having big carriers upsell to business people made them look outdated & quite literally out of touch once #iPhone went mainstream.

I mean, the hardware was never their problem and #SMS-Typists swear by their #BlackberryCurve's #keyboard but BlackBerry's #toolchain - just like #SymbianOS's - was just hideous to the point that devs like @fuchsiii didn't even want to try making #Apps for those devices.

  • Unlike #Mozilla fucking up #FirefoxOS by refusing to sell devices to #developers, by the time RIM & #Nokia came from their high horses, their market shares had been squeezed into mere "rounding errors" by #iOS and #Android as it was way cheaper and easier to get #Apps developed, tested, sold, bought and use them than on their devices.

#Sony even released some #Symbian #S60 devices but since they didn't have the same signing keys, one couldn't even #sideload apps (not to mention they didn't had the #OviStore on those either!)...

Surprise mid-week release today!
Ok, maybe not so surprising, as I hinted at it yesterday, but still. 😅

As 14 years ago today is exactly the day that the 3DS released in Europe, so I wanted to release one more ONM issue with more coverage.

So here is the Official Nintendo Magazine 113 - November 2014 (UK)

Continued thread

Affordable Space Adventures is probably the only piece of media I've seen that actually manages to pull off horror comedy. Most "horror comedy" is just comedy with the plot of a horror story, but the comedy in Affordable Space Adventures actually complements and reïnforces the horror of being lost and alone in a malfunctioning probe on a hostile alien planet because your tour company are a bunch of bloody useless idiots.
