760 - 05/16/21 Bobby Blackwolf Show - Roblox Users Don't Make Games, Starfield Xbox Exclusive
- I have been selected as a host for Summer Games Done Quick 2021 Online! Stay tuned in the next few weeks to find out when during the event I will be working.
- Starfield has been reported to be exclusive to Xbox and PC, making PlayStation owners sad, because allegedly it was intended to be a PlayStation exclusive.
- In the wake of the Epic Games v. Apple trial, Roblox has changed all of its wording and no longer refers to creations as "games" but rather "experiences" - probably to heed off being kicked off of the Apple App Store.
- Stern Pinball announced The Mandalorian. It arrives in late July.
- Then we talk to OLR about Mass Effect: Legendary Edition and why this might not be the best time to buy it.

Pre-orders for Amazon, Gamestop and Best Buy already sold out within minutes of release. Scalpers got most of inventory holding the quality of life feature hostage
Very disappointing seeing a huge quality of life feature is locked behind something that may not be obtainable
Don't think "vote with your wallet" against these type of micotransactions/features apply anymore since scalpers buy the rest of the remaining stock. If Nintendo views sales as fans wanting this feature in the future, then they're out of touch. Especially when they can't meet demand, or exceed it so scalping isn't an issue
Even if Nintendo somehow makes unlimited quantities of this amiibo. $60 for base game + $25 for a basic quality of life feature that should be in a remake already is very shady of Nintendo.
What's next, locking 1080p/4K (for Switch Pro) for remakes in the future behind an amiibo?
