We've removed the Pac-Man video. We heard what you're saying & understand why you're disappointed with Billy Mitchell's inclusion and how the section about him was presented. We're working on a reedited version without the portion involving Mitchell, with new trivia in its place.

If you condemn something by supporting violence (even jokingly) towards people involved with it, you're pretty much just normalising the thing you're trying to stop.

wherever Dreamworks' Trolls franchise goes, controversy seems to follow.

-First movie rightfully accused of trivialising depression
-Second movie basically killed cinema (that's the cinema owners' fault BTW)
-That whole thing with the sitting doll
-Quibi employees being asked to listen to its soundtrack after being fired.

So that recent Thomas reboot has got me looking into the rabbit hole of just how poorly Mattel has treated him over the years and uh...

I kinda wish a future Mario game would explore the "actors" thing further, maybe have some backstage bonus stages a la The Muppet Show.

Don't you just love when you discover something weird in your YouTube recommendations, and you go down a huge rabbit hole because of it, beginning ironically and then becoming a genuine passion? because right now I'm jamming out to the "chewing gum with your mouth open type beat"

The three non-Japanese female characters in Smash so far have been an eldritch abomination, a sarcastic bird, and a ginger-haired cube.

Japanese devs should be taking notes.

Gotta feel sorry for the Thomas fandom right now...

I imagine that had 3DS/Wii U ACTUALLY cut ZSS a lot of YouTubers would've lost a lot of ad revenue.

It's strange how so few people talk about how Pac-Man was plagiarised from Tomy - especially the wonderfully anticlimactic ending where Tomy were like "hey, you ripped off our character... can we make the merchandise?" and Namco just went "sure." https://pacman.fandom.com/wiki/Pac-Man_Bank

"Kirby and Captain Falcon for Mario Kart 9!"
Calm down dudes, they haven't even added Kamek yet! Nintendo's far from the bottom of the barrel, and if CTR has taught me anything (other than that microtransactions are completely trivial and not worth worrying about), it's that the bottom of the barrel is exactly where you want to be.

The trademark lookup site is such a weird place, some cool stuff I've discovered:

Pac-Man World 3 was originally called "Pac-Man World 3: The Elixir of Life"
This SEGA logo, which they filed for in 2019:

Nintendo filed a trademark for "QUBE" in the 70s. At first I thought it was something to do with the Viacom-owned interactive 70s TV channel QUBE, but seems not judging from the time frame - specifically with the registration coming after the channel

This image of Toon Link, at first I thought it was stolen fan art given the art style doesn't fully match up with any toon-style Zelda games, but it seems like it was drawn for the trademark registration

In the 90s, Viacom filed trademarks for pretty much every character from CatDog (they were super enthusiastic about this show when it came out, but SpongeBob ended up being the big hit) - sorry to anyone with an unrelated idea for characters called "the Greaser Dogs" or "Rancid Rabbit".

Some small additions I'd want in SSBU, some might be bigger than others, I'm not a gamedev so I wouldn't know:

Level 10 CPU
Ability to disable certain characters (for example, if you want to remove the FE characters from your roster, or your friend is getting super annoying with Duck Hunt's can, you can just ban them on a specific ruleset)
Certain hazards-off stages fixed (looking at you, Smashville)
AT/PokeBall switch
Coin Mode
Ability to choose series symbols and victory themes for Miis.

I've only just now realised how fun Snake is in SSBU.

I always interpreted the "dying cat" instrument in Hill Top Zone's theme as a stereotypical sassy big black woman (think "It's Raining Men") shouting "OOOOOOH YEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!"

Disney Renaissance teaser posters bring out huge anemoia in me. I didn't grow up in the 90s, and I was more a Dreamworks kid than a Disney kid, (didn't watch any of the Renaissance films until I was about 9 or 10, maybe even 11 or 12), but these posters just hit that spot.

I do wonder why the Route 209 remix was chosen for Spear Pillar over PS2 in Brawl.

Another dream I had was one where I got a TV with a time travel function. Not physical time travel mind you, but TV time travel, so you could watch TV from the past.

I decided to go on Disney Cinemagic (a LONG defunct Disney channel), they were showing Up in 3D - except it wasn't Up, instead it began with a hot air balloon rising above the sky (not multiple balloons, just one), catching on fire, Russel jumping out of it and towards the screen, then being chased by mosquitos, one of said mosquitos stopping to kiss the screen. Then it ended.

I had a dream where they confirmed DK, Wario, and Yoshi would be in 3D World + Bowser's Fury, and I was just mad because they didn't add Daisy.

I went on a Nintendo news website to find about more about the new Drawn to Life game, saw this image of a Lyn figurine on the articles list, thought it was a Smash render and had a mini-heart attack. Plz no more FE.

Don Bluth, one of the most legendary 2D animators to have ever lived, was once hired to work on a Pac-Man game, that game was reworked into Pac-Man World 3, and pretty much the only remnant of his concept was this:

Imagine hiring the guy who created Secret of NIMH and All Dogs Go to Heaven to design a villain for your most iconic character to fight and he comes up with a Butt Ugly Martians reject.

Brand is a very bad parent and poor little New deserves better.

An instant way to tell if a news source is worth supporting is which words they put in quotation marks in their titles. Words coined in relation to modern social developments (such as "asexuality" or "transphobia") being put in quotations is a huge red flag. Any subjective term (such as "amazing" or "sick") going WITHOUT quotations is also a huge red flag.

"Group of 7 characters = the 7 deadly sins" isn't a theory, it's just basic character writing. Fully intentional, whether the biblical connections are conscious or not.

Yooka-Laylee has some really bad character designs, but I do like this guy:

His very existence is an innuendo, you get a good feel for his personality, and he's just pleasing on the eyes. Better than...

God, I wish I knew Doug Bowser worked for EA when he was first hired. You can clearly see their DNA rubbing off on Nintendo now.

Wario Wario Wario · Oct 22, 2020

It's all part of the plan

"Ey, thanks for allowing your games on our platform! Hopefully this benefits you as much as us!"

"Ahh, good to know! BTW, I have some marketing advice... heheh"

"I'd be happy to take marketing advice from you! You are from the biggest tech company after all"

"Release your classic content with limited time availability, people will love it! you'll get tons of dough!"

"And now, we wait for the backlash... Japan here we come!"

If they can localise the Famicom Fire Emblem, surely they can localise the remaining Kururin games?

There's this really good Twitter account called Nick TV History, and it basically just shows off weird old Nickelodeon ads and merchandise. The sentence "Jimmy Neutron's Presidents' Day Dance Party" sounds like it was thrown together by a sober man pretending to be a drunk man pretending to be a robot

Can we PLEASE stop holding Sakurai on a pedestal? or at the very least stop treating any criticism of Smash or its roster as "harassment" or "ungratefulness"?
