Can’t say “good guy Nintendo,” because Nintendo is not good, guys. But they did the right thing.

I get the sarcasm even if others don’t.

Someone else on Lemmy said you couldn’t invent libraries today. It’s true.

“No! They’ll enjoy preserving our history to muuuch!!”

They know the dark secret of book preservation. The people preserving the books… gulp READ THEM!
