I still can't believe it's been more or less five years since the COVID pandemic...that, to me, was the moment that I lost all sense of time.

I think some sort of trading card mechanic would be a good compromise between the respective ideas of bringing back Trophies and Spirits. They could be like Spirits in terms of giving you different effects, and Trophies in terms of being collectibles with brief blurbs about the respective character(s).
Looking back, part of me wishes I had taken up video editing class in middle school so I could be a part-time YouTuber as a passion project.
All I need is for Nintendo to come out and say "this will be the largest roster of any Mario kart game" for the next Mario Kart and I'll be set for life.
(And don't bring up Tour because most of its drivers are just alts)
Yeah, I don’t care what anyone says. Once the next Smash game gets announced, Crash Bandicoot is the one character that I’m going to support wholeheartedly the same way I did with Sora.
I had a dream last night that I was playing Shadow Generations and Shadow had a DLC costume based on the Zeo Gold Ranger armor.
I had a dream last night that I was playing the next Smash game and one of the songs was a remix medley between the N64 Sherbet Land theme and the Double Dash Sherbet Land theme, with the latter in the tune of its final lap version.
My mother and I just discovered that our coolant has been leaking since September 2024. We noticed because I noticed that my ceiling was leaking and fumes had been running through our vents. When my mother called the maintenance people about it back in September, they didn’t do anything about it until October…and then in January this year, we started smelling those exact same fumes again. The maintenance people insisted it was no problem even though it clearly was.
Because the maintenance people couldn’t be assed to actually fix anything, the fumes persisted and my mother and I could still smell them. Then I noticed the leak in my ceiling and that’s how we realized that coolant was leaking. We then decided to send the maintenance people pictures of the leak so they can actually DO something. In the meantime, we’re staying in a hotel overnight.
Let’s say that the next Smash game launches with 60-65 characters. That means roughly:
- 45 veterans
- 15 unique newcomers
- 5 Echo Fighters
I’m currently considering whether or not the next Smash game should prioritize new remixes and remastered arrangements of remixes from Melee and Brawl. What do you guys think?
For April Fools this year, let’s rename ourselves to “KongBoards,” in honor of DKC Returns HD coming out the same day as the Switch 2 reveal.
Whatever happens in the next Smash game, I hope it prioritizes the following:
- More base game newcomers than what Ultimate launched with
- Veterans getting reworked movesets
- More balance between single and multiplayer content
- Rollback netcode
Honestly, I’d rather Sunset Wilds have not come back in Tour & 8 Deluxe at all if it meant that it got an actually good remake in the Switch 2 Mario Kart game.
I made a new account on Steam, but then I discovered that it stopped me from getting my old account back because my new account uses the same email as my old one. I’m going to try deleting my new account and trying again with a Proof of Ownership.
Genuine question: how beneficial would Nintendo putting at least their old games on Steam be? Because I’ve seen some mixed opinions in the matter.
My top 5 favorite Tour courses in 8 Deluxe:
- Squeaky Clean Sprint
- The most creative course in the entire game, with plenty of hidden shortcuts to boot. Probably my favorite course in the entire series.
- Ninja Hideaway
- Plenty of alternate paths to the point of truly feeling like Mario’s platforming roots
- Singapore Speedway
- Probably the best city course in the game purely for how varied its laps are and because its aesthetics make it feel like a proper race course
- Athens Dash
- The second best city course IMO, because it feels like you’re going on an adventure throughout Greece
- Piranha Plant Cove
- The only non-city course to have unique routes on each lap. Admittedly the weakest of the five courses on this list, but still a good, solid track.
What do you think the next Smash is going to be able to pull off with the Switch 2 technology? 8-player Smash Run on an expanded map with all fighters being able to interact with each other? A more expansive Adventure Mode with bigger levels? Certain newcomer ideas that were held back by technical limitations getting a second chance here? Maybe not anything along the lines of 16-player Smash, since that would likely become an unplayable mess.

Dracula should’ve totally been the boss of Wario’s Classic Mode.
If EA were brave then the PopCap games they own would lend themselves pretty well to Switch 2’s mouse mode

The global economy could really use a Bowser Revolution right now
I’ve seen some speculation that the next Mario Kart, based on the long road we saw in the snippet, will have cross-country races. At the very least, I can see a “cross-country” mode as a spiritual successor to Mission Mode from DS.
As of tomorrow, it’ll be a week since my Steam account got hijacked by a scammer. I wish Steam Support had an actual phone number so I could’ve gotten it back sooner instead of having to make a new one from scratch.
After thinking about the rumored mouse functionality for the Switch 2, I decided to use my beanie as a mouse mat as a frame of reference. It works surprisingly well with my mouse, and it makes me wanna use it for the Switch 2 if I ever get on for Christmas.
Probably not the best example, but watching this video made me think "If a fan mod could make 24 racers work with retro tracks, then maybe Mario Kart Switch 2 can, too."

I’ve actually been thinking of something; you guys remember Luke from Street Fighter? He was the last DLC character in Street Fighter V before making his proper debut in Street Fighter VI, where he was meant to debut originally.
I guess what I’m saying is, it would be novel if Ultimate got one last DLC newcomer who was backported from the next Smash game as a teaser for the next Smash game.
I just realized that there’s a non-zero chance of Universal-branded DLC in the next Mario Kart, since Universal and Nintendo are business partners.
After how much of an opportunity Nintendo missed with Tate Mode, I seriously hope the rumored mouse functionality doesn't make a similar mistake of not using for DS emulation.
Supid headcanon of mine: A "canon" version of the events of Shadow the Hedgehog takes place at the same time as the events of Sonic Rush. My only real basis is the fact that both games share the same initial release date: November 15th, 2005.

With how much of a darling that both Metaphor and Persona 3 Reload were for Atlus, both of them being their fastest-selling titles, I could see them getting representation in the next Smash game in some form. Maybe Metaphor will get a DLC fighter with or without a Switch 2 port? After all, the lack of a Persona 5 Switch port in 2019 didn’t stop Joker from being the first character revealed for Fighters Pass Vol. 1.
If I had known sooner that I share a birthday with Haru Okumura, I probably would’ve asked for Persona 5 for my 17th birthday for that reason alone.
I just had a though; what if the next Smash game had a Gen 9 Pokémon newcomer in the base roster…but then also had a Gen 10 Pokémon as a bonus DLC character?
If Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers started today do you think bigots would call it “woke” for turning one of the Rangers into a girl
I just came up with a new idea for Battle Modes in the next Mario Kart game, though this is built around my idea of Item Boxes giving you three items at all times (a la Mario Kart Tour): an Attack, Shield, and Speed item, respectively.
- Balloon Battle
- Each player holds up to three balloons at a time
- If one of your balloons gets popped, picking up an Item Box fills one of your slots with a spare balloon
- The less balloons you have, the better times you can get. If you only have one balloon, there’s a chance to get a Special Item.
- Coin Blast
- A variation of Bob-omb Blast that uses Coins
- In this mode, collecting more coins allows you to open up more slots for holding Bob-ombs to score points with
- You start out with 0 coins, and thus can only hold one Bob-omb at a time
- Collecting 5 coins lets you hold two Bob-ombs at a time
- Collecting 10 coins lets you hold three Bob-ombs at a time
- Collecting 15 coins puts you in a temporary Frenzy state where you chuck Bob-ombs to your heart’s content
- Getting hit causes you to drop three coins
- Shine Runners
- Returning from Mario Kart DS, functioning how it did back then
- Each player has a time limit above their heads, which resets whenever you pick up a Shine (which you can only hold for a few seconds). If it runs out, the player is eliminated
- There are a limited amount of Shines on each battle map, which decreases with each player eliminated
- Renegade Roundup
- Players on either side can pick up a key from within an item box
- Renegades can use keys to break out of their cage, while the Authorities can use keys to relocate their cages
Every further Waluigi-related argument I see here just makes this tweet more and more relevant.
Boys had their fun last year with Shadow the Hedgehog. Now it’s real men’s turn.

How to fix Nintendo Switch Online in 3 easy steps:
- Upgrade to more modern online server technology
- Make the basic online features of your games not locked behind the subscription service
- As far as said subscription service, combine the regular and expansion packages into a single package that costs, at most, $29.99 a year
After thinking about it, I’ve become a little more open to the next Mario Kart dabbling in more guest content…but only a little. Hence,
I've decided to do what Delzethin did and make two Mario Kart rosters: one that's focused on Mario-adjacent content, and another that dabbles into guest content. Only two things will be 100% consistent:
- 40 characters at launch
- 48 tracks at launch
