one way in which the Sims is way up on most other media with a made-up symbol for its in-Universe money is that they gave that currency an acual name. what's that symbol stand for? Simoleons. lookin' at you Pokémon
@Manurweibling @ me next time you're gonna call me out like this
@Manurweibling wait
@Manurweibling does it... not stand for Poke? Was that just an assumption i had since i was seven years old? Did you just ruin my childhood?
@evan I also assumed that but I'm not sure there is a canonical name. if it is it's not in the games
@Manurweibling what the fuck...
@evan huh. the symbol was invented for the English games, and the money was called the Pokémon Dollar, although where the hell that info came up I cannot recall
in Japan it's just the yen
randomly capitalizing the word Universe is one of those little tells that gives away my sci-fi dork parentage
