god help me i looked up 90s ray-traced sonic wearing a suit and smoking a cigar on the cover of wired magazine a month ago and since then ebay ads have been inexplicably bypassing my adblock to try and get me to buy that specific issue.

Adblock creating pop-up ads for itself is like if you bought pesticide that killed flies and roaches but attracted a large beetle every five days.
I can't tell if the amount of "My Stop Smoking Coach" for DS copies you find in an average CEX is hauntingly poetic or mildly ironic.
The recent Garry's Mod situation has made me realise that Steam Workshop kinda sucks as a system. It's more convenient, yes, but giving the game's publisher responsibility over moderating mods makes DMCAs significantly more likely as the workshop could be considered part of the game or its marketing in a sense - plus, legal woes aside, troubleshooting is a lot harder if you're not adding the mods directly yourself and don't know where they go, (I've modded a lot of games, and Rivals is easily the single one I've had the most issues with, particularly when it comes to figuring out which installs are causing problems) and Workshop makes it really hard to go through mods and uninstall them.
In fact, I'd say mod sites as a whole are a very troubling system when it comes to DMCAs compared to self-hosting, even if they make discoverability much easier. Content on a mod site like Gamebanana can be collectively wiped easily, self-hosting creates an impossible whack-a-mole game.
new needlessly intense licensed cartoon game music just dropped
I'm watching YouTube video essays about the CGI Bratz movies - god damn you, rigid 2000's-era gender demographic divide! 6-year-old me would've LOVED those dreadlocked potato babies!
While I don't think preservation of any commercially-released work should have to be justified, I think shovelware preservation is especially important because those are the historical context of many consoles, especially Nintendo. The average Wii experience was not Mario Galaxy and Rhythm Heaven, it was Ninjabread Man and Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal - this doesn't mean everyone needs to be making passionate video essays about said games, but if someone 10 years from now wants to immerse themselves in the historical context of the Wii, they need to have these games accessible, and not just the greatest hits, to get the full picture - not in a backhanded "oh, that'll make you appreciate Twilight Princess" way, but in a "this is how most Wii players played Wii" way. The same goes for almost all of Nintendo and Sega's consoles with maybe the exception of the N64, the earlier 2 PlayStations, and a lesser extent for every other console
Note that the individual games named were simply used to represent the wider concept of shovelware, I am not suggesting that LTAA and NBM sold better than SMG or RHF, as much as just that more people played shovelware as a totality than the "timeless first parties" as a totality.
i googled "almost naked animals multiversus" and found a nasb2 render
Looking into the history of Virtual Console releases and marketing to address a response to one of my posts on an unpopular opinions thread and JESUS CHRIST THEY WERE SELLING N64 GAMES FOR $11 DOLLARS IN 2015.
Uh oh, the Zuko update added probably the most game-breaking bug in NASB history. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Plush Baby Crash is where the art of the alternate costume peaked TBH
personal pet peeve: "puns" based on words with the same etymology
wow they added 20% of the n64's third party library in one update
i know that quinton reviews isn't a really a gamer but there's no way attack of the toybots ds is an rpg. it's obviously a beat em up.
I only just realised how weird CBBC must sound to someone non-British
- Half of the shows were serious YA dramas
- They still do the whole "live puppets between shows" thing from the 60s. Even now.
- There was a show called Chute! that was literally just memes, including Neil Cicierega works
- A weirdly recurring theme about shows involving the concept of being trapped forever (the aforementioned Chute, Trapped!, and Relic)
- Multiple shows were fundamnetally based around really ambitious web-browser-game connectivity, and it worked somehow
- Big Babies
I've been thinking about the idea of a Disney villains crossover (platform) fighting game, and I had the really stupid idea of the hero you take down as a boss in the story mode being a team-up of all of Disney's well-meaning non-villainous antagonists who are mad that whoever's sending invitations to the Not-So-Scary Halloween Party considers them "villains"
I get that leaving in excess amounts of unpolished characters from 2010 is a common criticism of Smash Crusade, and I do agree, but I kinda like how it has this very weird anachronistic version of Duck Hunt that aligns more with the 2000s-era notion of them as an "epic troll" as opposed to the "dopey idiot" image Smash established, even though I prefer DH's Smash moveset and personality
There are only 3 female cereal mascots and two of them are zombies for some reason
List of fan rules:
Keep away from babies
Do not touch the blades
Only clean while turned off
It's funny to see other crossover platform fighter fans go "Oh no, Mr. Krabs/Dee-Dee is a stage cameo! They're disconfirmed!!!", because not even Smash abides by that fan-rule - Conductor Link's cameo in 3DS was announced before playable Toon Link.
why does the google search result for lizards have a fart button
Maybe I'm not playing enough games, but I think the Antonblast Satan line about screenshots is the first time I've ever seen a specifically modern gaming feature used as a meta-joke.
why does youtube want to show me a bunch of tally hall videos, i dont think ive ever watched anything related to tally hall
I had a dream where a pizza shop opened near me with, for some inexplicable reason, an AOSTH Robotnik theme, and 2000s Sonic fans staged a riot there because it was meta or something.
It's weird how obsessed anti-AI-bros are with the definition of "art". There are tons of valid arguments against AI use, including recreationally, but everyone just focuses on weird non-relevant etymology-based petty insults that vaguely tie in to the abstract idea of the human condition, aimed at... basically nobody. Like, you should be critcising the lack of attribution these tools give and their marketing as anything other than a party trick, or the big Hollywood studios and clickbait farms actually trying to replace people, not the terminology of all things, or - as I've made fun of anti-AI-bros for aiming at a lot - kids who want to make SpongeBob say **** words. There are situations where terminology is important, like class and race, but this isn't really one of them, "art" to many just means "still image", and I'm pretty sure that's the notion the term AI art is meant to evoke, not that someone using it is a sophisticated and serious artiste, just as smashing paint at a wall can be art in a literal sense, even if maybe not figurative.
The ranking is complete. Overall thoughts on the console are in the Waterworld review

If the next Smash has a primarily original stage lineup like Melee and Brawl did, I actually think it'd be really cool if Mario's stage selection was like 80% Mario Kart. Not only is MK basically the main series and not the platformers at this point, but it also has the most interesting locations of any Nintendo franchise IMO, given it's probably the one most dependent on locations.
Asking for a Wario Smash moveset without farting is like asking for a Mario moveset without fireballs.
"Nester's Funky Bowling is better than Virtual Bowling" is the Virtual Boy opinion that will have me like tangledswords (1).png
(both suck though)
um jammer lammy is one of the most aesthetically pleasing video games of all time but god damn that thing they do in the cutscenes where everyone's feet is 3d is just ugh.
i think the saddest part of the ms. pac man legal disputes is that an actual gaming legend's likely final original appearance ever has to be super smash bros. ultimate of all games.
If the next Luigi's Mansion continues the "Nintendo handheld but spooky" theme, they should absolutely go for Poltérgeist Mini.
I do not enjoy Scott the Woz' content, but I will admit that titling a Virtual Boy video "I've seen better" is absolute genius.
I get the vibes from the Antonblast demo that it is actually faster than Pizza Tower, but also has a higher skill floor for speed. I haven't gotten to that skill floor yet so I can't say.
whats up with heteronormative luggage cases on the windows 10 toolbar today -
