I'd love to see a game some day do for the low-budget 60s Hanna-Barbera/Jay Ward look what Cuphead did for the rubberhose look, Pizza Tower did for the 90s Nicktoons look, and what Blud appears to be doing for the 2000s CN/Neo-UPA look.

Dream responding to being face-shamed by deciding to keep his mask on at all times, trying (threatening?) to DMCA uploads of the face reveal, and making a fake bait-and-switch reupload to keep the actual reuploads out of searches feels like part of a cartoon plot, and not even a satirical cartoon like the Simpsons. This is some Johnny Test ****.
MatPat's new theory is funny to me because like... was anyone arguing that Peppino is a hero, at least in the conventional sense, in the first place?
I had a dream where it was revealed that Warner Bros. lied about the sales numbers of the wizard game, and it actually had only sold 50,000 copies to date - the worst selling game of Avalanche's entire history - and people were making memes of Hannah Montana and Chicken Little dabbing on Harry Potter.
God, if only.
"CoD can't be in Smash because the weapons are realistic" used to come off as a relatively reasonable, if easily circumvented, argument to me in the past... then I looked up what CoD weapons actually look like...

I'm no firearms expert, but I seriously doubt these goofy Star Wars contraptions have any real world parallels.
Donut Dodo is really fun, but the animations are obnoxiously smooth and the Jake Kaufman-esque soundtrack isn't a remotely good fit
I really want to see a new Mario single-screen platformer. Whether it's schmovement-based puzzler like MvDK and DK94 or just classic retro arcade action, I'll take either.
The **** did he mean by this???? Is he talking about Pixar?????? Pixar "kidnapped" animation by... making sad movies???? I HATE THE MARIO MOVIE DISCOURSE I HATE THE MARIO MOVIE DISCOURSE
Dorkly did a Pizza Tower video.
Make of this what you will.
A few months ago I saw a set of sleeping bags on display at the local GoOutdoors and thought they were amonguses hanging from nooses.
I really hate the misconception that the Smash games are, on a casual level, iterative in the same way a Fifa or Madden game is. All of them have completely different game feels aside from 3DS and Wii U, and you don't need to be remotely hardcore to actively notice said differences - hell, each game has a completely different feel to their item balancing: in 64, items only add variety and don't give much extra power; in Melee, items are a little more powerful but can be easily lost and often have some kind of downside; in Brawl, a lot of the stronger items are situational and niche; in the 8th gen games, items are ****ing crazy and leave anyone without them completely vulnerable; and in Ultimate, 3DS/Wii U's philosophy is cranked up tenfold
The most fitting song title in history
when the **** is burger king gonna bring back the classic chicken fries
me and my katamari donut shaped character
Continuing off of my last post, I've been watching through Eek! the Cat lately, and, from the 3 episodes I've watched through so far, the highs are Eek-stremely high, while the lows are Eek-stremely low. There's a lot more awkward "the 90s were a mistake" moments in episode 3 alone than I had while watching the entirety of Rocko (though I still don't think anything I've seen so far justifies Disney keeping it locked up in the vault with the rest of the non-Marvel Fox Kids shows), but the funny parts are some of the funniest cartoon gags I've ever seen and, like Rocko, there's an underlying sense of empathy to it you wouldn't expect from an edgy slapstick-violence-based show like this. I don't get why the show started off with 22 minute stories though, the format doesn't fit the premise all too well. Not looking forward to the Thunderlizard segments though.
"Nintendo games aren't dark!"
Counterpoint: Sleepwalker on the Amiga vs. Eek! the Cat on SNES. It's very clear which platform is darker.
is it just me or has ronald mcdonald appeared in more burger king ads than mcdonalds ads over the last 2 decades.
These "bro, it's a canon event" memes are annoying me because they're just a static PNG. Can't you just pirate the movie and make a greenscreen - you've already seen it in the cinema, right? Hit up ye olde' Uberduck? Or is it a "well yes, but actually no" thing where it isn't actually a line in the movie?
oh my god grimace's birthday was made by the people who brought us Nintendo 64 jungle mix 01 - Drum & bass, liquid funk, jump up, neurofunk, darkside, etc (2020)
With the advent of Grimace's Birthday, we can finally rest easy knowing that we bullied corporations into actually hiring people who understand retro hardware for their So Retro throwbacks.
Crazy to me how few people understood the EverQuest reference in Pizza Tower, it's not even on the TV tropes shoutout page.
This image was an early-2010s Cracked staple.
Squirrel with a Gun looks weirdly good.
Just went from a two day long, record-setting heatwave to a literal storm.
oh my god the people hating on foamstars genuinely believe that it's made by sony lmao.
When NASB was still in its "flavor of the week laughing stock" phase, a lot of people were using it as proof that sound design is important in games - which is true, but IMO it doesn't apply to NASB - what it does apply to however, is Nicktoons Unite, which might be the most unintentionally unnerving game I've ever seen, almost entirely because the music is slow and barely audible; the ambient sound effects are oddly realistic, echo like a prison cell, and play at full blast; and all of the stages except the FOP stages have really dreary colour palettes and fog.
A lot of people like to talk about the racist movies Disney are hiding in their vault, or the movies Disney is completely fine to keep on their services in spite of their questionable content, but I'm frankly more interested in the completely inoffensive media that Disney just won't release for absolutely no known reason - what the hell is keeping Zazoo U or Angels in the Outfield off of Disney+?
I love how, in DriDim, franchises like Shrek and SpongeBob get relatively safe, logical character lists; and then when we do franchises like Spider-Man and Zelda we just go full force on the meme picks.
Antonblast should bring back Ant On Ball but have it be followed by an annoying paprazzi.
I don't think Arzest being behind Superstars is too big a worry for me. They have a spotty track record and it is a little concerning, don't get me wrong, but IMO there's really no such thing as a "bad dev team" - what really matters more is who's doing what and what space they're being given to do it in, not what title they're collectively going by.
just realised that i forgot to submit error for dridim
I'm pretty sure that Smash fans are the only people in the entire world who think that glitches are inherently bad.
I think the hammerspace attacks in NASB are a lot more justifiable than they'd be in other games since most of the characters are pretty explicitly absurdist comedy characters who would be carrying a bunch of stuff like that with them, and those who aren't generally don't have hammerspace related moves with the only real exception being maybe Helga?
Toph's belt attack is still stupid though.
Wario Land + Pizza Tower + AntonBlast = WahFellas

If DriDim ended up doing a DK season today, I would've submitted Kloak; Trouble Bug; and Pipsy
Not a fan of the rail grinding in Sonic Lario, but everything else is hitting the right spots for me - I like how there's some slower precision sections, can't wait to memorize those and speed through 'em. Fat Flicky is adorable.
How would we describe this? It's basically AWESOME. pic.twitter.com/VF58DFY8vM

I find it funny how Fang is probably the biggest "what creature is this supposed to be?" of the Sonic cast when he's arguably the closest to his real world inspiration (the jerboa) of any Japanese-made Sonic character not named Tails (though that isn't saying much) -
