If this movie came out today, every community on this planet would be offended.
Has there ever been an arcade platform fighter? Like, actual official mass-produced arcade machine in mainstream amusement centres and restaurants?
I've been noticing an increase of 80s arcade-style indie games, which I am all for.
I guess part of it is the 2000s nostalgia boom, as arcade rereleases like Namco Museum were hot in the naughties - it's like one generation getting caught in the crossfire of another's nostalgia! I wonder if when the 2010s kids get to make their own games 90s anemoia will rise back.
One of my most anticipated Switch releases for a while now.
There was a problem fetching the tweet
ToeJam & Earl and Norm of the North are the only good corporate Twitters.
I'd easily settle for ATs of my two most wanteds (Muddy and Jill)
Another fun little roster game for me, Sakurai (and Nintendo for later instalments) gets control of fighters, I get control of stages.

Donkey Kong Country 3 and Sonic CD are testament to how important level design is to platformers. They control and function almost one-to-one with the rest of their series, they just don't have the stages to back it up.
In a weird way, Crash Warped proves the same thing in the opposite way - Crash has a ton of needless power-ups and abilities, and half the stages are horrid vehicle levels, but the platforming levels are so well-designed they mitigate those issues so much they may as well not exist.
I just misread "BDSP" as "BDSM". First Sun & Moon, now this!?
My game's protagonist is close to a pacifist as a platformer protagonist can be - every boss battle begins with him trying to reason with the enemy but, because he's a dumb 11 year old who doesn't know any words longer than 4 syllables, he ultimately has to resort to the old Goomba stomp.
That being said, I think my idea of him flinching uncomfortably while doing his kick attack was a little too far. Yeah, not going through with that one. Disposable enemies get no mercy unfortunately.
I don't like the "Diddy Kong Racing shared universe" theory because it implies the Great Mighty Poo exists in the Mario universe.
I kinda wish they made it so when Steve mines Gogoat the beef food item comes out - maybe a little morbid for Smash though, given that it generally stays humour-free, even with comical characters like Banjo.
Honestly I feel Sonic's Smash music selection is below average - at least as a classic fan. There's only 5 classic Zone themes and 3 of them are only there to make an acronym pun.
Super Sonic Racing was a top-tier music choice though.
Bubsy 2 likely has the most disproportionate game length-to-song count ratio in gaming history.
When you start a job at Google, you get a colourful propeller hat that reads "Noogler"
I've read that Google employees aren't forced to wear Noogler hats, and I'm not sure if that makes it better (Google aren't forcing people to embarass themselves) or worse (people are embarassing themselves by choice.)
Imagine trying to explain Minecraft to a late 90s (PS1/N64/Saturn)-era kid.
"Geno main" "Geno's frame data" "Geno's matchups" "highest ranked Geno player in the LA area" "Geno's best stages"
These phrases sound horribly wrong to me. Vulgar almost
The single worst game design decision in Smash history - possibly Nintendo history as a whole - is the rightmost cloud on Super Happy Tree. Why is it there, and why did they keep it when they brought back the stage in SSBU? At best it encourages camping! Shame too, one of the most aesthetically pleasing stages in the series.
Release The Nc Seventeen Cut Of Adam Sandlers Pixels With Uncensored Josh Gad On Qbert Action Change Dot Org
Since fake Mario spin-off rosters are always on the mind for me, I decided to make a roster for the cancelled Mario Spikers game - albeit an extremely conservative roster that exclusively uses charactsrs who I feel are fit for wrestling, regardless of popularity or marketability.

Wow! Thanks for telling me the release date of every single game except the one I'm looking for!
I like how, intentionally or not, the 4 Mario universe platforming protags appeal to different stages of life.
- Yoshi is cute and lives in a crayon world with usually easy platforming, perfect for kids who just barely count in the "3+" age range
- Mario is a standard all-around hero in standard all-around games, the sort of character you idolise when you're only just about to break out of the single-digits
- Wario is lazy, gross, and greedy. He fights a mix of nightmare inducing creatures and wimpy freaks in really unconventional game styles, very resonant with a teen demographic trying to break the rules and slowly understanding complex morality beyond just "good and bad".
- Donkey Kong is just a chill dude who loves family, friends, and food. His games are hard and tend to be a bit on the artistic side in terms of soundtrack and levels. Not mature or edgy, but there's a slight pinch of adult sensibility to him.

That seems a little counter-intuitive
I have a love-hate relationship these best/worst TV show wikis, most of the points they make are utterly terrible and sometimes the qualities they mention are the exact opposite of how they're framing them - it's basically TVTropes Mr. Enter style - but it's kinda addictive, like a car crash you can't look back from, and they occasionally, very rarely, make decent points.
As a kid I always thought the stick figure portion of the Tom & Jerry Tales intro were supposed to be blueprints, since the designs from it were used in a blueprint map screen in the Tom & Jerry Tales DS game - however, as I grew older I eventually started to think the DS game influenced me to see them as blueprints and they moreso intended as a reference to storyboards with an aesthetically pleasing dark blue as opposed to the blinding white usually found on paper
Now my 6 year old self is finally validated, as I have learned that that scene was intended as a tribute to a blueprint-themed original Tom & Jerry short. That was an absolute rollercoaster of a 5-minute Google, let me tell you.
Why do people like analysing the "warped psychology" of Wimpy Kid characters so much? Like, it was funny when Mumkey Jones did it but now it's become a ridiculous genre of its own.
Kaptain K. Rool should be a clone, not an alt.
This is the hill I will die on.
I really hope Nintendo don't shift their focus to open world games from now on. I may just not buy Nintendo's next console if they're gonna abandon linearity like they abandonded 2D for the N64 and Cube.
Here's some highlight pun stage names from my planned game
- Sun Nova Beach
- Saint Entso Baptist Church
- Under FUNstruction
- In Hot Fursuit
- It's Hip to Chuck Trees
- Pitfall Hurry
- Slippery Slope Facility
It's kinda cool how SSBU made Pak E. Derm timed to Randall like in PM

This song is for an Alice in Wonderland-themed first stage in a Bubsy game for the Atari Jaguar. Think about that.
For a while I've had this idea of a Kuru Kuru Kururin stage that would just be FD but with a slight bump in the middle, a noplat as distinct from FD as Dream Land is from Battlefield - but the thing is, I think I've found a more interesting aesthetic design.
"It's been 6 months since you last checked your Google Account!"
Yes, because normal people check a page with their birth date, email address, and nothing else regularly.
Me when the live action Pokémon Netflix series has a neon sign saying "DRILL DOZER" in the background of a scene for no in-universe reason.
doing another point game, this time for that Nintendo compilation I mentioned in my previous post. 55 instead of 45 this time.

I think it would be cool for Nintendo to release a "best of" retro compilation on Xbox, PS, and PC. Free with NSO, paid product for rival platform players.
It's kinda disturbing how normalised the R-word is in the SMG4 and SuperMarioLogan fan circles - like I've watched a few reviews and drama recaps for these channels and they frequently use it casually as a synonym for "wacky" or "idiotic" without even acting like it's some edgy counter-cultural thing, let alone a repugnant slur. -
