I don't want to throw any wild accusations around, but if the banner turns out to be fake, I hope we get an explanation from a certain someone; a certain someone who's alleged inside source is the only one to think that the banner is completely correct; who made videos offering very strange and...

I hold no ill will towards the insiders as they may very well have the last laugh, but it would be nice if they could tell us WHY they think the banner leak is fake. Have they said if they or their sources have seen the alleged real characters and assist trophies for themselves? If that's the...

I've been thinking how to put into words on why I like Mona and consider her the most worthy second character for Wario. While it is true that she's from the original posse and was suggested to have a closer relationship with Wario than the other characters, I think the main appeal of her is...

I wish I supported Mach Rider more in the past so that I don't look like a bandwagon jumper if she gets confirmed. I got a bad feeling she won't, though.

Been ages since I posted, but thought I'd share an interesting little story. This was several months ago, but while exploring the bar scene of Osaka, I made some interesting discoveries. At one game bar (they are a thing here), I found out that Panel De Pon was one of the most popular games...

With all due respect...what the gibbering **** was that??

I'm guessing you dug most of those names out of those "x people who were y" lists that are all over the internet. Many of those names were either simply right-handed (like Picasso) or have very little evidence regarding their handedness usually based on limited anecdotal evidence (like most of...

I just hope the hypocrisy isn't lost on you. Or does it not count when you do it?

As I said, he directly contradicted them with Other M. In addition to it contradicting Corruption, there are other issues as well. The Prime series gives a very different take on the Space Pirates and their society compared to Sakamoto's material. Also, Mother Brain's hinted relationship to...

But the ballet also asks why we think the character should be playable. Don't you think that might mean Nintendo actually cares about our actual reasoning beyond just liking them? Yeah, me neither.

The reason seems to be that Sakamoto wanted to take back control. Other M was his way of sealing his vision of Samus and the series as ultimate canon and distinguishing it from the games that he didn't have creative control over. At the very least I'm glad that Prime is now just a separate...

Heh. I love how the Delano 7 thing caused so much controversy among the fans when Corruption first came out, and then all of a sudden 8 years later they casually mention that it really was Sylux. I did think he was pretty cool in Hunters, and if they ever actually do anything with him in the...

...You HAVE played the games, right? Well, whatever. Other M has Samus claiming that it involves her first mission with the federation since she quit them, which makes it obvious Sakamoto did not have the series in mind when he was writing the story since it directly contradicts Corruption...

Putting aside my bewilderment at your love for Anthony, I think it has been made pretty clear now that the Metroid Prime series exists in a separate continuity from the rest.

So a 14 year old single-handedly did what a veteran game designer with a large experienced team would not do, in a rather short amount of time at that. That's downright embarrassing when you think about it. I like Lucario and all, but I'd happily ditch him for Ridley. Much looking forward to...
