The Scrimblo Bimblo debate is legitimately fascinating in a lot of ways - like, NOA have been spending a third of a decade trying to combat the kiddy reputation they gained from sweaty Mortal Kombat, but now that they've succeeded a good chunk of Nintendo fans, especially of the N64 era, have already embraced the idea of "manchildhood" and just feel isolated. Sometimes I wonder if Nintendo would've been better off (from a discourse-averting perspective in some bizarre AU where corporations care about their consumers and fandoms, not a business perspective) creating a Touchstone-esque fake brand to release their consoles and darker/less silly games under.
