Obviously, I either buy a new shelf (if I have enough extras to make sense to do so) or reorganize so things fit, for instance, moving box sets to a new place, etc.

Except, in this case, buying a new shelf is not viable and you cannot make "things fit."  The closest extension of your analogy would be tossing your unused items into a box (SD card) and keeping your preferred ones on the shelf.

You're name is really intended for irony, isn't it?

You know, there are many ways you could have responded to my post.  You could have:

A)  Realized that I was criticizing your analogy and make a better one.
B)  Taken it jokingly and made some witty remark about it.
C)  Ignored it.

But instead of those, you choose to extend your bad analogy even further and then insult my username.  Congratulations, you are a clever one though.  You made a joke about my username.  Surely I've never seen that done before.  Did you really think it up all by yourself?  What a bright little boy you are.  Show it to your teacher and you might even get a gold star.

Also, I recommend you check for grammar errors when you insult someone.  Confusing "your" and "you're" while trying to make a witty insult makes you look bad.

Now please don't do it again.  It makes me unhappy when people are rude to one another.  ^_^

 

 

Ahhh, struck a nerve I did.  I'm not sure how you misunderstood such a simple analogy, but the point is, "deleting" a purchased product and "reacquiring it" later is a stupid decision on the part of Nintendo.  It's not like I'm buying upgrades where it's pointless for me to keep an old game that I routinely go back to play.  It's not like upgrading from 3D Studio Max 5 to 3D Studio Max 9, where I can simply delete the old because it's really not needed anymore.  Splatterhouse is not really an upgrade to Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts.  I shouldn't have to delete one to get the other.  That's stupid.

 

I find it a bit ironic that you don't like rudeness when the majority of your posts that I've noticed are either blatantly rude, condescending, or deliberately ignorant (as when you responded to me initially).  That's why I questioned your username.  It's not like it's your given or "Christian" name and that it's sacred to you. 

Now, you could have taken my response jokingly or simply ignored it as well.  Hypocritical a bit, aren't we in that you should reply to my "insulting" post with one that is, shall we say, verbally aggressive?

 

The misuse of "you're" was a typo.  Usually I catch that stuff as spelling, punctuation, capitalization (and to a lesser extent, grammar) are pet peeves of mine in internet communities.  I've often written out massive posts only to go in and edit one misspelled word or awkwardly constructed sentence.  In fact, generous misuse of the variations on "your" and "to" and "there" tend to drive me up the wall.
