80s game industry retrospective YouTubers when the copyright bots come for the RoboCop C64 theme
Why is this unironically better than the real sequel? I've been crapping on these unreleased Circle 7 movies for years without knowing anything about the scripts but this one sounds legitimately good.
THIS WILL BE EUROPE IN 2012
Imagine if other series aimed at adults used the type of promo material SuperMarioLogan does...
Unfortunately, competitive NASB players won't be able to use "Back to the Lab Again" as that's a Cartoon Network song and therefore off-brand.
Hugh Neutron in NASB is like the opposite of Geno in Smash - one began as a meme request but people quickly caught on to the actual potential of the character's inclusion, while the other began as a serious request but slowly became outdated by major series changes to the point of support seeming ironic to outsiders.
Howdy Squidward, wanna talk about TEXSUS?
The best way to calculate a character's popularity is with the quality of their images on fan wikias.
If I was making Space Jam 2, I'd have it go like this:
After the first film, Looney Tune World is in harmony and now home to stars of all the cancelled cartoons - Looney Tunes, MGM, Hanna Barbera, Ruby Spears, WB TV Animation, Cartoon Network, WAG, pretty much every kid friendly animated IP under WB/Turner that isn't still making new episodes or movies (sans reboots) - this is with the exception of the DC Heroes, who hear of the Tunes' great game against the Monstars decades prior and propose a friendly game of hoops in their universe. To prove the sporting strength of the cartooniverse, Bugs Bunny gets LeBron James to coach all the tunes and toons, and choose the best 15 to shoot and score against the DCverse - basically, an ensemble sports training comedy with no actual villain and inter-personal conflicts as opposed to a proper threat. The movie would end with the big game, where slapstick clashes with superpowers and the stakes are low yet immense. I'm not sure if the Tune Squad or DC Heroes would win, but I think it'd be funny either way if The Joker popped up out of nowhere at the end as a "big surprise" and Bugs disposes of him in mere seconds.
THE PAINT.NET USERBASE IS DYING
LIKE IF YOU HATE G-actually, I don't think I'd even get away with that one in a spoiler
Crash Bandicoot devs when the marketplace is so saturated with open-world games that linearity becomes a selling point:
I love how the Animaniacs' cameo in Space Jam 2 is clearly just their models from the PS2 game doing the same 2 animations on loop.
A lot of people say that of the 3 original Nicktoons, Ren & Stimpy were the odd one out on virtue of being edgier than the cutesy slice-of-life toons that acompanied it. I understand where they're coming from, but honestly I see it as Rugrats being the middle ground between Doug and Ren & Stimpy - a cute slice of life show with relatable kid protagonists like Doug, but one that like R&S wasn't afraid to delve into unsettling imagery or gross-out humour. Though those latter similarities did get neutered once the show got uncancelled, and it never went as extreme as R&S in the first place, so I can still see why people think of R&S as the odd one out.
New creation thread, one I've wanted to do for a long time and finally figured out a way to make work.
Mini-Creation Thread: Crash Team Racing Nitro Fuelled: Grand Prix: Lap 2!
Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fuelled is getting an enhanced PS5 port, with Xbox Series X and S editions to come later - and while they work on the port, Beenox is getting us to promote it with a second wave of Grands Prix on the existing versions of the game. They've got a 5 month deadline, and...

I often see people bring up Sonic R as proof that "a Sonic footracer could never work!" - even though Sonic R, gameplay and mechanics wise, isn't a foot racer as much as a kart racer where everyone is animated running.
If I was making a Mario game, a multiplayer spin-off specifically, I'd only do it if Ninty gave me free range over characters from Mario's entire history (excluding characters owned by outside sources like Geno and Oogtar) - otherwise I'd just go to Activision or Sega and say "hey, you wanna put Crash/Sonic in this?"
I think I could work with mandates for a platformer though.
When I first heard this song I was surprised it came from a 1994 game. It sounds extremely early 2000s. Despite being a 7 second loop I think it'd work really well in Smash.
YOUTUBE STOP I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN TO A BAD AUTOTUNE COVER OF I'M BLUE BEING SUNG BY A WATERMELON
"Suicide Squad" implies the existence of a "Mental Health Awareness Squad".
Space Marmite: Space Jam but with Aardman and Cosgrove Hall characters.
Also they play football instead of basketball, because of course they would.
It's weird how a lot of the more damning "Redditor" stereotypes tend to be things most Reddit users irrationally oppose to the point of earnestly supporting and celebrating literal murder.
Let's be frank here, if you're coming to the defense of a guy who tried to BBQ people's heads alive, you have the moral low ground - no matter what their potential victims had done. No way around it.
Images taken seconds before disaster.
Is making duplicate versions of TV channels that are an hour behind with no programming changes but their own dedicated network just a UK thing?

IMO there are only two Smash fighters who truly need revamps. Sonic and Min Min. Everyone else can be fixed up with some good old fashioned balancing. Game accuracy is a completely irrelevant factor to design and nowhere near a reason to revamp a fighter 100%.
I just got an ad for a Sega war game, and the Sega ding lined up perfectly with the visuals to sound like it was the sound a firing tank made.
we have reached true post-irony - legit websites are disguising as piracy sites
I decided to create a roster of SSBU newcomers for an elaborate hypothetical scenario:
- Third parties have never been in Smash
- Ultimate has all existing 1P veterans newcomers and as many 1P newcomers as there are known 3Ps as of CP10 (15 + 2 echoes)
- All the third parties in SSBU and prior are DLC, while all DLC 1Ps are base game.
Generally, Iwas biasedtried to appeal to smaller fandoms, or even create new fandoms, while the real SSBU newcomers appealed to big fandoms - a few I'd likely opt to reveal with blog posts instead of CG trailers. both reasons are true Regular Waddle Dee and old Impa were partially chosen out ofspitesurprise factor only the crossed out text is true
They have Adult Swin stuff but not CN? The hell?
I honestly see no reason to put Impa in Smash if it's not old lady Impa.
"Cyberbullying doesn't exist" is the internet culture equivalent of "this is a free country".
So glad this came out now and not 2016.
I've been watching a lot of videos about the SuperMarioLogan drama - it's a fascinating Icarusian cautionary tale of getting too big for your own good, especially when your works deal with such a niche yet potentially controversial subject matter as Mario toys swearing.
The thing that really gets me is that he claims his videos aren't for kids to cover his back, but then has a merch store that sells back to school supplies and kid-sized shirts. He really wants the best of both worlds.
One thing I'm happy about with this Nick hype is that nobody I've seen thinks the IPs delegitimize the game. There's been memes, there's been a bit of joking with the idea of "Mr. Krabs' DI" or "Zuko losing the Plankton matchup", but overall everyone's on the same page that if a game with the Wii Fit Trainer and Duck Hunt Dog can be taken seriously, so can a game with Nigel Thornberry and the Powdered Toast Man.
With the Steam Deck now a thing I don't really have much reason to replace my broken laptop until I start work on my game project. Will certainly be a bit of a hassle to save up for though - £289?
Steven Universe fans when their show about empathy and forgiveness ends with an episode about empathy and forgiveness
Weird, Twitter won't load for me. Is this happening to anyone else? I've been paranoid about parental controls blocking sites for almost a year now.
IMO the ideal future for Smash post-Ultimate is a 10 year or longer hiatus. -
