it's funny that you say this... I don't have epilepsy, but I do suffer from crippling anxiety.

That's horrible, I almost died in june 2024 because I had a convulsive crisis. I started taking more medication and I gradually deteriorated, because my doctor gave me a new medication with a higher dose than recommended, so I almost went into a vegetative coma (I gradually improved during a week in hospital and got completely well in a month being treated at home).

dang that's terrible. :( im sorry to hear...June 2024 is very recent too! i hope everything is okay with you now.

Jesus christ, you're having fun playing Overwatch 2... Will you get to a doctor soon and get medicated before you hurt someone.

Nintendo Switch 2 will be revealed within the next couple of wks. I'm just gonna check out until they finally decide to announce the thing. (And, in particular, show the games+UI!)

Same!

Some people turn to psychiatry and narcotics, others to psychological therapy, still others to some form of a priest or a guru. But I consider myself lucky to have a tight group of friends who I’d like to give a shout out to: Johnny Walker Black, Alberta Premium, and the latest to the group: Reign Drops 15:15 - although, Reign Drops isn’t for everyone… in fact, some people report higher anxiety, but I find the presence of Reign Drops makes everything more relaxing, funny, and entertaining!

In all seriousness, medicinal whisky is nice to keep on hand for anxiety, a small sip (I’m talking like half the small side of a jigger) takes it away in about 2-4 minutes, and I’ve found a 70cl bottle can last anywhere from 6-12 months if you strictly keep it away from casual/celebratory usage.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Gonna be a lot less sane when it turns out it’s not coming until 2026. People are getting way ahead of themselves thinking they know release



I mean, why?
It's ok to be excited for a new system, but those leaks are as boring as they get, the leaks make it look like basically the very same thing you have since 2017, what's to be so excited about, really?

Its not about the leaks content... Its the bulding antecipation for what we dont know about the system (wich is a lot, because the design and some hardware parts dont even scratch the surface), the leaks keep coming and coming, making us believe that the reveal will be in any time now and Nintendo being deadly silent without even a small hint if we are close or not.

Its not only excitiment, its anxiety

Were you a sane person before, tho?

So, you are brazilian.

I remember being hyped as hell for the GAMECUBE presentation (by then, the "Dolphin"), during AAAAALL the 2000 summer, and even before. Gamecube was presented in that late August, during the Space World (along with the Game Boy Advance... which I barely gave it a fuck XD).
I already had internet by then, and forums were FUUULL of expectations and rumours.

In the end, the final name, and the console physical look were a disappointment for many (they were not leaked, although... I remember to see "StarCube" as a leaked name one day before or something like that, and started to create "panic" XD). The final name, a variation of StarCube, was way worse than "Dolphin", a shame they did not used it: Even Mario Sunshine has huge references to the previous name of the system). The controller... was more public dividing.

You will not have that problem: name is pretty confirmed by now, and the console will not differ too much from the Switch. Calm down.

Well, to be fair,... you can be nervous about the incoming games. Because in Gamecube case, they only showed some testing demos and concept teasers of future games: that machine was announced more than a year before its launch in Japan (and before almost 2 years in Europe).

That was the video (and music) we finally got (with lot less quality, recorded from someone present in the actual show).

By the way... a photo of that Luigi's face image you can see, was the FIRST image we got, in "real time".

I just want a end of the leaks, and for this we have to wait Nintendo to reveal the console.

I'm with insomnia for 5 days (Sleeping 3 to 4 hours per day) in a row because of these leaks on Reddit and X.

Now, with the leaks, I'm sure Nintendo will not announce the Switch 2 anytime soon.

PS: My sanity is so ruined that I'm having fun playing Overwatch 2

BFR: Dude, there's more to life than video games.

You could go out and watch a movie, go out to have dinner, go to a casino, etc.... hopefully with a friend, and not alone.
