Don't think they've ever shown a mini console at E3, am not expecting them to change that.

Have you sorted dog insurance? When they are young the vet bills aren't so bad unless the dog has an accident, but as they get beyond 6 they can really escalate so insurance on balance saves a lot of money. I think you have misunderstood insurers' business models. On average, insurance will cost the purchaser more than the cost of paying for whatever event is being insured against. It's only worth having insurance if it's a legal requirement (e.g. driving), or if the cost of the (unlikely) event would potentially be financially unpalatable for the individual (e.g. house insurance, possibly pet insurance, car insurance). Poor people need insurance more than rich people, and should spend more money on it. Edit: also, the best dogs die suddenly without suffering, and after a happy and healthy life. You cannot predict when or how a dog will fall ill, insurance is the best way to mitigate a sudden and unexpected accident. |

I can't see them packing 4 controllers into the box. Would licensing allow golden eye anyway? I think Rare have licenced stuff out before, there was that collection a few years back. Goldeneye, OoT, MM, Mario, mario Kart, Smash Bros, perfect dark, Rogue squadron would all be perfect. Apart from mario, Kart and smash Bros, those others will probably never happen That Rare collection was terrible, the games had not aged well. |

You cannot predict when or how a dog will fall ill, insurance is the best way to mitigate a sudden and unexpected accident. Indeed, if you feel the need to mitigate it. I assume Scubar is very wealthy, and could splash a few grand on dog surgery without it hurting his pocket too much, and the total bills for the dog are on average going to be lower than the cost of the insurance. |

Pet insurance chat is better than games announcements chat.
Pet chat is also the punchline to a culturally insensitive joke about Indian food.

You could feasibly put away the same amount as a monthly insurance payment into a savings account, and then you'd still have the money. Obviously you'd keep a contingency fund in there of ~£2000, but the rest is then yours to do as you see fit (hookers, blackjack etc.).

I see Keefza have failed to set up a new article for Day 3.
Makes a change.

Obviously you'd keep a contingency fund in there of ~£2000, but the rest is then yours to do as you see fit (hookers, blackjack etc.). In the 12 months to May 2018, the average annual Dog insurance cost was £287. It would take almost seven years (49 dog years) to build up £2k. You'd then have £23.91 a month to blow on hookers. I think dog owners are liable for damage their dogs cause, so dog liability insurance might make sense as the potential cost could be high even for someone as wealthy as Scubar, if, say, the dog crashed an oil tanker causing a major environmental disaster and losses for the oil company. |

They kept it short. No Metroid, no Bayonetta, no Animal Crossing, no Pikmin, no Yoshi...
Anyone for a round of Fortnite?

After a quick scan of the Fortnite sub reddit I believe Switch users can download the game now and cross play is available for Switch owners with Xbox, mobile and PC.

I need to figure it out, gotta get back to some other work first. They didn't say anything, but it works for Rocket League... They just showed off a Ridley amiibo, that will be impossible to get. |

According to the Fortnite website you can cross play on PS4 now? What? End of times.

A bit disappointed by the Nintendo E3 presentation. On balance I think I'd have to rank it Microsoft, Sony, ubisoft, Nintendo, Bethesda, square, EA
