Sometimes I'll find a YouTube video I really enjoy, check out the channel to see more, and then find out that all the other videos are about boring **** like banned movies made by Nazi cannibal cults instead of more content in the veins of the Polar Bowler video essay that drew me to it.

Just found out that Mickey Illusion Island is a Metroidvania

RIP

That makes 4 out of 7 (Mickey, faulty 3P Switch controller and charger, Move It because my old controller lacks motion controls) items from my Amazon gift card I've cancelled, so uh, now I've just got £200 lying about that I can't use for groceries. I'm not getting paid this week. Oof.

I love the juxtaposition between Melee's stereotype of "only 5 viable characters", and how every time I read Melee news or stats it's something like "Unknown Donkey Kong main wins second major tournament without dropping a set, Sheik has not won a small-scale local tournament in 3 years"

I'm thinking of banning the standard content ratio from DriDim. It just feels lazy to say "standard content ratio" and be done with your franchise submission, and Pizza Tower - a game famous for it's fast paced levels - recieving only 2 tracks was the last straw I feel.

I really like the exclusive coverage Did You Know Gaming has, but at the same time I wish they'd do more videos that aren't on a Nintendo game or Sonic.

I was NOT expecting Homie Rollerz on DS of all games to have a tragic real world backstory.

I got some 3P Switch controllers (I refuse to call them the stupid brand name) with roughly the same dimensions of the official ones, after using large handled controllers for almost a year, and OH MY GOD MY HANDS

The "Movies with Insane Records Iceberg" is really interesting when they talk about actual production stuff, but it becomes an absolute bore when they start talking about the marketing stunts

While I personally think character unlocks in fighting games (or any other game with non-cosmetic characters) should be a thing of the past, I do think that platform fighters specifically could still utilize unlockables by having all the content competitive players would want by default (every character, all the Battlefield/Smashvilley stages, a few more Yoshi's Story/Dream Landy stages, the primary alt costumes, the more basic items and alt modes) and then allowing players to unlock either casual or cosmetic content (the Templey and Pac-Landish stages, certain items, special mode options, a few extra alt costumes)

I went to a semi-local retro arcade place - played Ms. Pac-Man, Simpsons, Bubble Bobble, John Goodman Flintstones Pinball, original non-super Monkey Ball, and Rhythm Tengoku.

I've come up with a really fun mode for Smash Remix: Jiggly Smashketball

Set stock to 3
Turn off the Super Star item (and any other items you may want to turn off)
Put both players on a team together with team attack off
Set red team to either Polygon Jigglypuff or skeletal Kirby at level 1 (or an indle controller)
Turn off hazards for stages (movement can stay on)
See who gets the most KO points at the end of the match on the stats screen

Unfortunately you can't use the Smashketball stage for it (at least not as intended), but still.

Finally unlocked the monochrome Pinstripe skin in CTRNF, I don't think I'll be playing with a setup other than monochrome Pinstripe + black Nautilus for a LONG time.

80s Nintendo after shops decrease the price of Tennis by 10 cents and place it on a shelf painted PANTONE 110602 and not PANTONE 114202

90s Nintendo and Rare obliberating every single 3rd party Nintendo 64 developer by being the only people who understand how the damn thing works on a basic level

2000s Nintendo while designing online services

2010s Nintendo execs after forming a weird one-sided emotional bond with their customers through SNL-tier unfunny skits

I don't get why people act like Nintendo just randomly because greedy one day, and wasn't always like that going back to their Hanafuda days, same with Disney.

I like how the whole "Rugrats debate" in NASB speculation is basically just based entirely around whether you view it as "a Ninja Turtle beating up a literal infant" or "a literal infant beating up a Ninja Turtle".

funny scenario idea: someone whos only ever watched garfield cartoons and thinks nasb is just a really weird garfield game where they diddy kong racing'd the entire cast

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 3, 2023

Given that Smash Remix has reskinned the Skyloft and Kalos stages into more era-appropriate references, I hope they can do the same for Mementos at some point. Not sure what game into - perhaps something from Sonic given the slope element, probably a Persona 1 purple version, but my personal choice would be a Bubsy 3D stage to preserve that abstract colourful look (even if less artistic and more primitive) and PlayStation semi-connections (plus, if they want to add the Mementos walls, Bubsy 3D has a wall-removing mechanic so it fits well there.)

Everybody has talked about how Pac-Man is a richard in the ending of World 1, but frankly he's a way bigger richard in the ending of World 3.

Elon's hot new Twitter shutdown speedrun strat: forcing users to boycott the site instead of provoking them into it. Genius. Can we get a We're Finally Landing bookend?

Smash Remix just needs Banjo and Rayman, and then that Kickstarter scam will be a real thing

I'm watching the Lab Rats: Elite Force video essay that's been in my recommended for a while, and I can't believe they bombed a hospital in a Disney sitcom, killing off its entire supporting cast

Wario Wario Wario · Jun 30, 2023

I really like how the DriDim Smash tracks ended up reflecting both sides of the franchise aesthetically - the stupid haha pop-culture debris "Kazuya kicking a football into Isabelle's shins" funtime side, and the edgy 2000s Hot Topic "trying to convince teenagers that the plastic NES robot is a badass" aesthetic.

So, is Twitter just outright inaccessible without an account now?

I had a dream where I went to a retro gaming museum, and they had a big sign explaining "THE GAMING CRASH ONLY HAPPENED IN AMERICA, THIS IS A ZX SPECTRUM"

Apparently, in my dream, there was also a 70s console called the "Atari InfoWars"

The NASB thread really likes bringing up unrelated opinions from unrelated threads during arguments for some reason.

"I think faithfulness to the source material isn't as important as a character being fun to play"
"Uhh yeah, aren't you the guy who doesn't like Banjo???"

"I think hype culture is a toxic loop that shouldn't be encouraged"
"Uhh yeah, aren't you the guy who likes boring flat platforms from Project M???"

nintendo fans actually think game preservation is bad

Wario Wario Wario · Jun 29, 2023

I don't get why people call the PS1 - the console itself, not the branding or actual games - "Y2K aesthetic", it fits way better among the sort of late 80s original Macintosh beige block look.

Talk about a bookend,

Wario Wario Wario · Jun 28, 2023

While I'm usually on the side of competitive balancing and keeping old movesets intact, I actually would be all for Smash just going full-on stupid and completely non-viable with its game mechanics and design - however, I'd need to emphasize "full-on". Not just a game with minimal depth, but a game with minimal depth where all the characters can do utterly ludicrous **** on par with or worse than Steve and Kazuya.

Also, the game would still need to be fun to move around in. That's important for every platformer.

Continuing off of my Space Goofs post yesterday, LGBTQ+ representation in media is so weird - more specifically, which media does it well and which media fails horribly.

how the **** did gilligans island handle asexuality better in the 60s than house md in 2012. why do the always sunny writers have more empathy than the friends writers. who let the powerpoint-made acid trip known as rodney guy be the first kids show with a non-joke gay marriage.
