Britain on 18th April 1930:
I know this is a cliche, but I want to say the words "Pre-order Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing Digital Deluxe for a chance to play as The Embodiment of Death!" to someone in 2012.
While I don't think it's the only reason, I do think it's very likely that one of the things holding Pibby back from a greenlight is that it attracted a really young audience. Nobody's at fault for this - not Adult Swim, not parents, not kids, not FNF modders, if anyone it'd be YouTube for not having a complex age rating system and even that's a stretch - but it raises a real dilemma for both the writers and the execs - can and should you tell the same story in a PG-13 format? would capitalising off of this unintended audience with a tamed version increase or decrease a potential controversy? in the case of this specific show, should they cut down on the more modern and timeless cameos that would draw kids to it if they keep it on Adult Swim?
I honestly find it kinda weird that Smash fans specifically are so pro-monopolist. Nintendo fans as a whole makes perfect sense from a historical perspective, Nintendo has a past of upholding monopoly and, once it was finally broken, made them into a laughing stock for almost a quarter of a century, something we're only just now seeing tame down as the 90s kids grow out of discourse, not to mention their usually-effective-but-at-times-crippling obsession with originality contributing to a "derivative = bad" mentality; but Smash is a mega-crossover between multiple companies, where a lot of the franchises featured were very clearly inspired by one another. It would not exist (even in its earlier, Nintendo-centric state) in a world where every new installment in a genre is considered an inferior bootleg.
If you think NASB and MVS' side-over-protags are surprising, you should really see Slap City. That game has 10 characters, spanning 8 games, and only 2 of them are main protagonists.
NASB speculation is the only situation where the existence of "Dreamworks Kart" is considered a crushing, mortifying event.
People who don't want Fred Figglehorn in NASB are so Year One.
i love the donkey konga version of 99 red balloons, it is objectively worse (affectionate) than the original.
Wait, so is Minnie's ability in Speedstorm just to give everyone around her a shield and completely eliminate all offensive play?
She is either going to be the best or worst opponent to race against. Probably both.
I still find Dirk Dinkum hilarious.
This guy is walking testosterone, and proudly sings about he is an affront to god, but all you see him do in the song is harmless children's playground pranks. It is just the perfect comedic dissonance - I'm sure this is all just for intentional comedic effect and he does much worse things in the actual episodes (IIRC he was a poacher? I believe I saw the Long Lost Lyman episode he was in on Boomerang as a kid, I distinctly the only reason I didn't change the channel being that I knew about the Lyman character beforehand and was genuinely invested in his disappearance)
clicked on a glover video essay
first 2 minutes are about how mario 64 "birthed" 3d platformers*
*read: collectathons. they're using "3d platformer" to mean "collectathons"
actually no the x doesnt look like a warez site, it looks like a fashion brand
I think Brawl is the start of Smash's dark age and easily the worst installment, but also generally has more in common with the 2 HAL games than the Namco games.
The new Twitter logo looks 2000s in all the worst ways.
Yoshi's Story is a woefully flawed game, Yoshi's moveset from Island is, IMO, too complex to work in a beginner's game; the save system is somehow worse than even Crash 1; you spend most of your time being bumped around uncontrollably; it's impossible to play every level in a single playthrough; and it had a rather negative effect on the perception of 2D games at the time of its release (not that that last one was its fault, but still), but it's also a game I can't bring myself to even dislike, let alone hate - mostly because it was the first game I ever beat, but also because the artistry of the game's visuals is just incredible, and I appreciate how it continued the experimentation of Island, even if not to nearly as good an effect. I'd also argue that it has one of the best endings in a Nintendo game.
is it just me or did the top banner get deep fried
Fun fact: Nintendo have published more Bubsy games (1, in Europe) than they have Conker games. (0, nowhere)
I thought I had drift on my new luxury 3P joycons, but turns out I just accidentally set one of the shortcut buttons to left lmao
I find it funny how FNAF used to have a reputation as a game YouTubers would only talk about because they needed to pay rent, given that the gameplay revolves entirely around "keeping the lights on".

Never trust anyone who namedrops TV Tropes tropes in regular speech.

Digital customer service is a nightmare. Got an Amazon refund lost in the post and the choose-your-own-adventure "customer service" doesn't even acknowledge that as a possible incident. £30 gone, I guess. Whatever.
MS. PAC-MAN NOOOOOOOO DOCTORS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO TREAT THEIR OWN FAMILY MEMBERS IT WILL SUBCONSCIOUSLY EFFECT YOUR MEDICAL JUDGEMENT MS PAC MAN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
I honestly think the timer item in Speedstorm is the best take I've ever seen on a blue shell item
Even if the Nazis were actually socialist (which they weren't), that wouldn't really prove anything about socialism because that's not the reason people hate the Nazis.
This is genuinely one of the most surreal gaming advertisements ever - not because it has weird imagery or little to do with the source material it's advertising, it's a very typical 2010s-parody-of-90s-infomercials, fitting for a game filled with 90s characters, but just because I don't get why they would make a trailer for these dinky little alt costumes, especially when VA and items were just randomly shadow-dropped on Twitter.
the fifa 06 title screen is a ****ing nightmare
Rex is a better "bad Yoshi" than Boshi NGL

I am just now learning of the Olympic ceremony opening where a giant Voldemort attacks a children's hospital ward, followed by millions of Mary Poppinses descending to fight him.
I imagine that the themed wheels in DriDim are animated to spin a lot slower than generic wheels, though this doesn't effect car stats.
Sora in the White Wilderness world when he sees all the filmmakers that threw lemmings off of cliffs fuse into a giant monster lemming. (He doesn't have enough magic points to use the Shnookums and Meat summon)
I feel like Smash's stage selection is simultaneously its biggest (possibly even only) edge over other platform fighters, but also its biggest disadvantage against traditional fighters. - like, on one hand, casual based Smash stages have way more fun layouts than casual based stages in other platform fighters, which tend to feel like an afterthought (and, well, they are most of the time!) - but on the other hand, Smash stages are usually really dull to look at, and and tend to lack a lot of eyecatching elements and setpieces, especially in the omega forms, which tend to outright remove the original casual form platforms instead of shifting them to the back as setpieces.
Compare Fighting Climax GHZ to Smash GHZ and it's pretty clear which one wins out visually - it's all the same elements from STH1, and even a very similar placement, but one is just more fun for the eyes to dart around and observe.
I can't believe pirated movies are so normalized nowadays! Permanent marker DVDs back in the day would either be so loud they'd send you flying out the room or so quiet you'd need to set the TV to max.
In the UK, we have school uniforms - they aren't enforced, but they're still there and generally followed - so the concept of dress codes is frankly horrific to me. Schools will just have signs outside that read "DRESS CODE: do not wear..." and then just list off every single clothing item popular with non-white cultures? What the ****?????
i saw the dnf duel logo as a dinky little favicon on gamebanana and thought it said "DAFFY DUCK" -
