With Nintendo opening up a subsidiary in Thailand to handle distribution & localization, there's non-zero chance that they're gonna do this for Indonesia

Low EN proficiency > hiring Indonesian translators for localization = meeting local content requirement (TKDN) to sell games

This is what the consumer computing decade of humiliation looks like

Not surprised if this was Nintendo's plan for Southeast Asia. First work with a new distributor, then build a new subsidiary, and lastly start acquiring partner studios to get both console distribution and game development ready in under 3-5 years
Nintendo is acquiring shares of Bandai Namco Studios Singapore Pte. Ltd. for the purpose of strengthening its development structure

BNSS will become a subsidiary of Nintendo and will continue its development operations under the new name Nintendo Studios Singapore Pte. Ltd.

The PlayStation 5 Pro has been approved by the Indonesian government through Komdigi (116029/DJID/2025).

I'm surprised Sony Indonesia is releasing the PS5 Pro this late lol. Knowing the MSRP prices for the original PS5s, these will be more expensive than existing JP imports

Kinda wishing for a Donkey Kong Bananza bundle with the Switch 2 in Southeast Asia, especially when Mario Kart World copies here have gotten so dang cheap

This one is like 34 dollars US, people can get one if they feel like it lmao

Switch 2? In this economy? Bro I'll just take the poster

That was France alright

One thing I noticed by looking at PS Enterprise's sales numbers in their Tokopedia and Shopee listings, they managed to sell more than 2856 units in Indonesia alone

Even without a new distributor + possibly relying on Maxsoft, they still moved a lot of consoles

Random Nintendo trivia: the Japanese Switch 2 AC adapter has a little bit of plastic on the live wires that prevents you from touching it when plugged halfway in compared to the American Switch 2 AC adapter

Oh my god, I just woke up from an emotional dream where I'm in this personalized copy of Pokemon Legends Z-A and I have to save only one Scolipede in a mountain house full of them that's gonna explode in any seconds.

Now that Nintendo has a Southeast Asian eShop ready for this November they finally will have an excuse to release the Switch 2 Pokemon Legends Z-A bundle here with digital codes lol

It feels like a no-brainer knowing TPC has been doing so many Pokemon related events here lately

Why does Corbeau's battle theme sounds like a J-core rhythm game song

Thoughts on A Space for the Unbound: The pixel art is amazing, the trauma-ridden storytelling is exemplar - and the fact that this came from an Indonesian studio with all the Indonesian pop-culture references makes it even more relatable to its native audience!

Finished A Space for the Unbound

That was peak, I genuinely almost teared up at the ending there
October 19, 2025 at 10:46 AM
Oh my god the Didi Kempot reference in this game is amazing lmao

I heard France is lively at this time of the day

First thoughts on A Space for the Unbound, so far it's pretty good! Though I didn't expect the game mechanic to have a "enter the consciousness to help overcome one's trauma and anxiety" similar to Psychonauts in a way lol

I appreciate the video essays on game pricing, especially US-centric ones but sometimes I do wish that there was a video essay discussing video game pricing in minor markets and the complexities of it, from parallel imports and distributor shenanigans
