Wario Wario Wario

I've been reading GameFAQs discourse threads on the Smash DLC stages, and one really interesting point I saw bought up in the sea of "why don't competitive players just use Omega and Battlefield forms?" was that, because of how quickly Nintendo's online capabilities expanded between the Wii and 3DS, 3DS/Wii U were the first games where the devs would have hard data on which stages are most popular, and because competitive players have a smaller pool of stages, the competitive stages would far outweigh the non-Temple casual stages in quantity of playtime.

Having spent my pre-teen years on a diet of primarily retro games and only having gotten into 2000s stuff (beyond the licensed and 1P Nintendo games I played at a very young age) relatively recently, whenever I hear gaming opinions from my own age group, I feel really old. What do you mean Kid Icarus (1986) isn't fun? Asteroids (Atari 2600 port), ugly? Come on, you can wring hours of fun from Penguin Land (1987)!

Zoomer political opinions are on point though.

WHY DOES MR. GAME & WATCH HAVE A TOP HAT ON SPANISH WIKIPEDIA?

I'm sure I read once that Freaky Flyers was the worst selling mass-produced game on a major console ever, but I cannot find any proof of this for the life of me. Did I hallucinate this fact(oid) or something?

We need stage submissions for Roy and Chrom!

How do you go about preserving Roblox games? The idea of losing Despicable Forces is a scary one.

We're submitting stages and echoes for G&W, Roy, and Chrom!

I like that Pizza Tower does have the staple indie game hidden dark lore, but one instance is a comically harrowing juxtaposition so dark that it's impossible to take seriously (Peppino being a war vet) and the other is utterly nonsensical (the whole Pillar John backstory) - I have no clue if the intent of these backstories was to parody unnecessarily deep and dark lore in cartoony platformers, but it comes off that way and I like it.

I am now cursed with the knowledge that "bluish yellow" is a forbidden colour.

Looking forward to Mr. G&W in EAC, got a great echo and stage planned, both of which are from franchises I've already contributed to a little in EAC

The concept of fantasy dwarves is so funny to me. They literally took a disability and turned it into a whimsical creature. Imagine if someone released a book about "the mystical forest of the ancient Amputees" or something.

We're submitting Ganondorf and Mewtwo's stages and echoes! Whether you like your clones digetic or mechanical, there's plenty of room to stretch your creative muscles!

I kinda want to submit an echo at some point for EAC that is just a blatant "list of adjectives" joke, possibly for either Duck Hunt given how hard it is to conceive an echo for them, or Pit given that Dark Pit was kinda what spawned that meme in the first place. (and plus, I'd have an extra slot for the echo I actually want to submit, Classic Pit)

Rosalina is my only remaining chance for a Small clone in EAC.

OK, technically there's Riolu... and Tiny Wario... and the Nipper Plant... Sonic and Pit's Classic forms... Bulbasaur... Jr. or Baby Pac-Man... Q2 Joker... Toy Story form Sora if we want to get out there... I could just make something up... I did actually get Igglybuff in there already as an alt...

You know what I mean though. The Mario small forms. The ones who are just the same but half the height

Why is my YouTube recommended filled with "Disney vs. Dreamworks" tiktoks that are just blatant homophobia???

We're doing alternate costumes for Marth, Lucina, Young Link, and the brand new echoes Raiden, Shovel Knight, and Travis Touchdown! In particular, Travis has yet to recieve alts, so if you think you have good ideas for his alts, come on down!

It annoys me when people react to the Nintendo COD deal, which is inarguably good for Nintendo customers, with "uuuuuhhhh what about the rare games. 'we' only want the rare games" even though they've already got the Rare games on Switch.

I accidentally spelled "New York City" as "New Pork City" on the DriDim voting lmao

thinking about the time the banjo kazooie facts twitter posted "did you know? greg mayles' son prefers nuts and bolts over the n64 games! " and then had to reply "DO NOT SEND 5 YEAR OLDS DEATH THREATS"

Wait, so the US actually has a franchise restaurant fully themed as a medieval castle??? with live jousting??? I thought that was just a wacky cartoon gag made up for Arthur.

That "I Hate Barney" novelty album I posted a few days ago is really weird - 3 or so of the songs aren't about Barney, none of them involve death or violence but there's one that seems to vaguely allude to dino-sex, there's an actual genre balance with love songs; rock and roll; and rap among the obvious nursery rhyme parodies, one of them is a weirdly emotional track where the singer is trying to figure out just why she hates Barney, and it's also... really good? Like some of these are genuinely good cheesy 90s songs, I wish there were versions with lyrics that weren't about wanting a mid-90s kids' show cancelled.

I tried looking up all the artist's other work and apparently she's a 1970s disco legend or something? Her Barney-bashing album really isn't that far off from her serious songs from what I've heard so far - it's very clearly made on a lower budget with synth instruments and all that (though that could just be to replicate the actual Barney show, which also used cheap synth instruments), but the singing and original composition quality doesn't seem to be much of a downgrade.

I have a bit of a habit IRL of trying not to repeat certain words too often, and using fancy synonyms as often as possible, and because of this I LOATHED the word "please" while I was in education. Thank you has tons of synonyms I can use, but please is just so rigid. Even if I said something with the same meaning and etiquette, like say "would you mind...", I still got scolded for it - luckily, that sort of thing seems to have eased as I left school and went into supported living, so I can "would you mind" all I want now.

I now have an EAC stage planned for every single Sonic R gameplay track (sans Super Sonic Racing since it's already in the game)

One of the enemies in Pizza Tower is a cameo from a Doom mod with buff featheries and scalies in it.

DriDim just got it's first 4 way tie, and it's almost entirely between memes.

Smash fans will legitimately call having 3 attack buttons "more complex" than this

Hold on... if content from licensed Disney games is eligible for EAC...
