Have you ever bought something because you saw it in a game?

Sort of like shortbread but less rich.

i bought a kid after unteralterbach

it just looks like a chocolate bourbon
I doubt it's a great a nutrition snack as they say

You can order them on Amazon. Even shipping from Japan it only takes a couple weeks.
They're good, but kinda expensive. Like a shortbread cookie. Very dry and thirst provoking.

Reminded me I needed some.

This can't be real

flip phones are still massive in japan.

it's a calorie dense brick of processed garbage. The only ones that are good are the sweet varieties. Stuff like the cheese flavour and meat flavours are absolutely terrible. You can find them on amazon if you really want to try them but they're a standard MRE item when unbranded. Most eastern european and general asian countries offer vanilla or choclate squares that have like 400 calories in them.

Somethin' dawned on me when I was on my own: any food you make tastes better when you use good ingredients, right? Then, if you take something already delicious like Cup Noodles and add in the finest, freshest ingredients, what do you get? The ultimate flavor experience!

So I ask you, user: what's your favorite ingredient?

Nah. I'm not manipulated by product placement.

With a cup noodle you're better adding your own spice mix and proper protein/vegetables

You're also probably better just making noodles than getting a cup noodle

To be fair they are the most aesthetic style of phone.

I actually did this with cut up pieces of beef, it was pretty good, but I kinda wanted more out of it, and I couldn't get it right

Well what does touchscreen phones that can do shit like play games and act as a media center accomplish?
You have a phone to call people, maybe even do emails and take photos.
That's all a phone needs to be, and what flip phones can do.

Same goes for fax, it's a quick way to get a document somewhere and ensure it got there.
Emails are easily missed or not read.
Post can go missing or be disregarded and takes a long time.

I've had all of them besides the plain one. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the cheese flavor. It does smell like shitty cheap nacho cheese but the taste isn't actually bad. Fruit is probably my favorite because it has little bits of orange or something in it. Chocolate is good too, and even the maple is alright since it has nuts in it at least. I imagine plain is probably really bland.

It's as good of a reason as any.

They switched the in-game version to a massively inferior new watch that Seiko designed to try and get some money, instead of keeping the in-period watch that would've forced them to do a re-release or something.

It's a shame, I love that original watch model.

It's just weird that while the rest of the world completely abandoned the flip phone design, it maintained a following somewhere. It's also weird that a country that is often regarded as very tech obsessed, they held onto a design the rest of the world would see as dated.

I can tell you that typing japanese on a flip phone is infinitely easier and faster than on a touchscreen. Even the keyboard layout on smartphones still mimic flip phones

No. Because of smart phones everyone is jut on facebook and snapchat and shit all day long, even when driving or supposed to be working.

just nostalgia from people who don't put their money where their mouth is and go use one right now because they know it's worse.

What does a smart phone offer? GPS and Google? I'm not interested in turning my phone into a shitty gaming platform, which is the main reason people use their smartphones. I already got a tablet for that and I'm certainly not going to use my phone like that.

Of course they don't.
They're comparing a 2004 moto razr and pebl to an S9.

and they're not a more efficient format?

You're either sacrificing screen size or making it larger than it needs to be for no tangible gain.

I don't see it as "dated" at all.
It's just that after 2007, literally everyone started copying iPhone, resulting a gradual growth of mobiles' size after two decades of them shrinking and getting more varied.
Nowadays it is next to impossible to tell which phone is which or by whom, without checking the label on the price tag.

I only use my phone for calling relatives and work, maybe once every six months texting said relatives. There's literally no benefit to owning a smartphone for me but it sure the hell costs more.

They all look the same now because they're all screen, they're literally as small as you can make them for a given screen size now. This is like, what we've dreamed of with a phone since the 90s, it's basically sci-fi, but you're not happy?

It depends. There are dual screen flip phones, flip phones that can rotate screens, flip phones can use the keypad as a mouse tracker. They are pretty efficient in their own ways. For me, flipping your phone one handed is just cool as fuck.

Is it as flaky as shortbread? Considering they're meant to be calorie dense and serve the same purpose as those served in MREs, it seems weird to make it drop crumbs and lose those calories.

They are very crumbly. But they are not MREs. They're not meant to be used by the military. They're meant for overworked Japanese salarymen who literally have no extra time and need to cram in as many calories as possible to not pass out on the train home. And for fat Japanese girls to eat at lunch instead of 3 bowls of rice.

Looks flimsy

Hate it. No physical keypad and doesn't have the cool one handed flip function.

>Imagine being this retarded in current year
I don't have to imagine I can see the retardation of your post. Learn to read, I said flip phones are barely around anymore. You options are kind of limited these days

I prefer flipphones because of the physical keypad. Of course a slightly different smartphone with a folding gimmick isn't interesting. And no, putting a digital keypad on the thing doesn't suddenly make it better.

It's a 3D screen so probably that's why it's a bit small. Yes you heard that right, a 3D screen.

Attached: 08.jpg (511x486, 82K)

MREs aren't exclusive to the military, they're also used in disaster situations and handed out by relief organizations to give refugees and the like a satiable meal that also meets their caloric needs. Every one of them varies a lot, but a common staple item is a calorically dense bar (sometimes shortbread, chocolate or fudge, etc.). They both serve the same purpose: high number of calories, easy to eat, and quick to eat. That's literally why they're in MGS to begin with.
