I honestly kinda like to believe Little Mac is intentionally underpowered because it fits with the main theme of Punch-Out! perfectly - using sheer skill and wits to rise up as the champion against those who are clearly more powerful than you

The Transformers and SpongeBob Splatfests imply the 80s animation dark age and 90s animation renaissance both happened in the Splatoon universe, which furthermore implies The Simpsons exists in the Splatoon universe, therefore meaning there’s a Matt Groening inkling in Splatoon canon.
I think one thing a lot of people on both sides of the Smash Wario debate don’t realise is just how much Land DNA is in Ware. Tiny Wario was in Smooth Moves, the shoulder bash is used in quite a few microgames, there’s tons of Land themed microgames, there’s a few Land easter eggs in cutscenes, and Wario’s love for garlic even stays throughout both series,
Nobody:
YouTube recommended: Scary blue dude yells Sega!
The Smash fandom if WarioWare starred Waluigi:
Like seriously, Wario would have his Land moveset, Waluigi would be in Smash, and the Ware moveset would live through Waluigi. That’s 3 Smash fandom problems solved at the same time.
Penny looks like she de-aged 5 years between Game & Wario and Gold.
Orbulon looks like he de-aged two thirds of his lifespan
“Competitive fans hate fun!”
Yeah, because going up on stage, working your way through a bracket to the top, and losing a cash prize in fronts of tens of hundreds of people because a Ramblin’ Evil Mushroom made you jump straight into the Hyrule Castle tornado while a dog is jumping on the screen sounds so fun, doesn’t it?
“Transformation final smashes disrupt the flow of gameplay”, Masahiro says as he changes all of them into literal cutscenes.
Two More Eggs is one of the most underrated comedy cartoons of the ‘10s, send post.
You know that one CN ad they aired on Nickelodeon where they were all like “we’re on the wrong channel!”? WWE should promote their wrestling games on UFC4 in that way, preferably with an ad that mentions the lack of ads.
Everybody says we need Crash in Smash so we can have a 90s console wars “rematch”, but the rematch we really need is...
I don’t think any meme went ironic quicker than Sus.
I honestly really like Mario Odyssey’s high abundance of collectables. If they sorted them into smaller collectables and bigger collectables (other than the extremely basic multi-moons) I don’t think anyone would be complaining.
TAS Maxwell’s parents were highly worried about his dead lion obsession and its impacts on his future, until the faithful day he was hired to design a mascot for golden syrup...
One idea I had that is inexplicably funny to me is making a web series where all the characters’ designs are brazenly plagiarised from well known, copyrighted characters with no changes apart from art style, and they have nothing in common with those characters - not personality, not backstory, not friends, not even name or voice. Like, Jonathan is a well meaning but unfun lawyer with a deep voice, also he looks like Tails from Sonic
I refuse to believe the Apple orangutan emoji isn’t based on le monke. I thought it was a custom emote the first time I saw it.
We get plenty of dark clones of hero characters, but we don’t get nearly enough heroic clones of evil characters.
The Nintendo fandom’s idol worship problem is actually kinda worrying. I remember seeing people feeling betrayed over Reggie congratulating TLOU2’s TGA win like some kind of Captain America Hail Hydra thing - he didn’t even say he liked the game, just that he was happy for the devs!
I’m not the biggest Takamaru supporter, but if he got in his stage would be beautiful.
People are surprised Sakurai has a bad take about Cyberpunk when his game has stages based on NSMB2, Yoshi’s Story, and Sticker Star; as well as a character from Arms.
A character becoming diverse in a retelling usually doesn’t result in them becoming a Mary Sue - it simply makes their existing Mary Sue-ish qualities easier to notice because of how we’ve been conditioned, mostly by white straight cis businessmen half-assedly trying to look progressive and extremely privileged diverse celebrities, to worship women and minorities on a godlike scale
As a Nintendo fan... yeah, Nintendo should go third party, no doubt in my mind.
The Crash cartoon was cancelled over a single fart joke, which - hot take - was kinda the right call. Remember how mad people were that Detective Pikachu had a fart joke?
I like how you can hear the VA’s confusion at what he’s reading.
“There are no more potential 1st party retros! Duck Hunt was scraping the bottom of the barrel!”
Me:
They should bring back the practice of bundling retro games with new ones.
I have finally figured out the truth of how gender and sex work in the Mario universe - in Dribble and Spitz’ intro in the first WarioWare you can see a pregnant woman in the background, so it seems the Mario universe works under the same rules as Warner Bros’ Storks movie (remember that thing?) where there are multiple methods of baby creation, including both sex and stork.
I can’t believe I care so much about this
jesus christ cartoon network
WarioWare D.I.Y. could be considered a precursor to Super Mario Maker in many ways - including the utterly wretched daily unlock system.
“Nickelodeon flesh logos aren’t real, they can’t hurt you”
Nickelodeon flesh logos:
I’m glad Sephiroth’s reveal has got people talking about Eggman.
Melee and Ultimate are equally as great competitive games IMO.
SpongeBob’s popularity is kinda hard to explain - it hasn’t got a unique tone like say, Hey Arnold or Courage; the characters and world are standard comedy cartoon fare; the show wasn’t breaking new ground like Simpsons or Ren and Stimpy before it; and the show wasn’t marketed that heavily until they knew it was a major success - I think it serves as a testament to the value of great writing that works on all levels.
I still don’t get what the point of the spotlight on Shadow Moses is.
“Did you hear that? We’re a meme! Finally, we may just beat GitHub as the second most popular Hub on the internet!”
“They’re making fun of us”
“Oh... well, no such thing as bad publicity! How else does PETA still get donations?”
“We’re gonna go bankrupt, boss.”
Google “who is the antagonist of Caillou”
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who consider claymation the objectively highest imaginable art form, and people who scream like a Five Nights at Freddy’s robot at the mere sight of stop motion animation.
Is Yoshi’s Story a prequel to a prequel? Or is the baby Yoshi in the game not the Yoshi who saved Mario? Is Mario’s karting buddy Yoshi the same Yoshi from Yoshi’s Island or Story, or neither?
Competitive Smash is awesome, but when you stop to think about it there’s just something kinda funny about people seriously discussing things like “the legality of the WarioWare stage” and “Pac-Man’s matchups”.
This isn’t supposed to be criticism in the slightest.
(Casual) Smash stage design peaked in 64. -
