I don’t need to look at the feature sets when I know Blender has been around for far longer than your shit-ass software—and when I know Blender is more developed, more supported, and more widely used than Meshpage will ever be.
I don’t need to check the price of the product when I know Blender is free and open source; that fact makes the price of your product irrelevant.
And I’m “comparing humans” because—and I know you’re going to hate hearing this, so please get a fainting couch ready for yourself—people are the ones using Blender. (And they’d be the ones using Meshpage if both it and you didn’t suck more than a black hole.) You invited comparisons between the output potential of both Meshpage and Blender; your throwing of a temper tantrum because such comparisons don’t flatter you is not my problem.
Also not my problem: you taking offense to being reminded that Blender was developed by multiple people. Don’t like that? Let other people help you develop Meshpage. Or shut the fuck up—whichever one you want to do, so long as you stop whining like an entitled two-year-old who thinks they’re owed the world because they exist.
This basically is an admission that emulators do not have legal use-cases available
No, it isn’t.
this doesn't seem to be the case, given that emulator is not required at all, if you write your own game
The point of making a “homebrew” game for a specific system is to work within the limits of that system, regardless of the reason why one does that. Sure, such games could be made to work as standalone applications (as the NES homebrew game Micro Mages was). But part of the fun of making such games work on a given system is how people can play it on the actual native hardware (e.g., Micro Mages was released on a physical NES cart that works with an actual NES). Emulators can also have filters such as scanline/CRT filters that emulate the look of old-school TV screens, which is important when considering how pre-HDTV 2D games were originally made with scanlines in mind.
Emulators have a legal use case. You have no room for a proper counterargument.
Weird how some sections of the internet can be so sure that Nintendo have blown it while their 4 year old handh[e]ld is still selling launch games at £60 a pop.
Just so you know, people also dislike the fact that Nintendo doesn’t lower the prices of its games over the lifetime of a given system.
Rumors have been floating around that GoldenEye might make it to NSO+ at some point. I fail to see how even the re-release of that classic could stop people from being angry at Nintendo for its bullshit.
If you can’t stand having your work compared to the work of one person or the work of one hundred thousand other people, don’t put your work out there for everyone to judge.
You don't even know how blender works even though you have been praising it like its 2nd coming of jesus.
No, I haven’t. I’ve been calling it “better than Meshpage”, which is true. Comparisons between the output you’ve made in Meshpage and the output others have made in Blender—numerous examples of which are all over the Internet—back up my opinion.
Before what you’re doing was called “negging”, it was called “reverse psychology”, and incels didn’t invent it, Bugs Bunny did. You’re not going to make me use Meshpage or Blender by insulting me, Tero. Grow the fuck up.
If I downloaded Blender right now and started using it with little-to-no prior training, I probably could get a cube done. But I’m not going to do that, because:
I have no interest in 3D modeling, either as a hobby or a career; and
I don’t take orders from delusional whackjobs like you.
Insulting me as a way of goading me into doing something that you apparently can’t get done won’t make me do it for you. You want a cube done in Blender? Do it yourself. I’m not your slave, your employee, or your bitch.
One could do that, if they were so inclined. That most Blender users aren’t inclined to do that isn’t an indictment of Blender, but an acknowledgement that the average Blender user wants to make something more advanced than the CGI found in the first Golgo 13 animated feature.
He didn’t get stomped by Nintendo, though—so far as I know. Hell, he went from making an Earthbound ROM hack to having a new arrangement of a song he made for that hack featured in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Toby Fox rules.
The fact that someone would prefer to use Blender rather than Meshpage is, itself, a critique of Meshpage. If you could demonstrate that your program is better than (or at least as good as) Blender, you wouldn’t get “I’d rather use Blender” comments—you’d get an actual userbase.

Product placement writ large wouldn’t be the worst idea.
It also wouldn’t be the best idea, but still.

Blender is open source and has a large community base for support. Meshpage is essentially closed source and has one singular dickhead for support.
Try and guess which program the average person would use. (Here's a small hint: IT'S NOT MESHPAGE.)

When people have seen what Meshpage is capable of compared to Blender, they don’t need to try Meshpage to know Blender is better.
