Fans have taken to the likes of X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok to question NetherRealm's decision to market Mortal Kombat 1 as a $70 Switch release. It has been called "robbery" and "disrespectful" to users.

That's not how power works lol

Yeah that's what I mean. They're bad comparisons, because we don't compare the "power" of a phone vs a laptop.

People definitely do and can

People run Doom on a fridge

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Right... I'm not sure what your point is exactly with that, doom came out in 1993 and had extremely low requirements and looks as dated as it is. Of course it can run on machines like fridges or ATMs or calculators in more recently made devices because the power of the chips in these machines are better then PCs back when doom released.
