I actually really like what I've seen from Arzette so far beyond the novelty factor - it feels like they very carefully chose which flaws are endearing and which flaws are detrimental (notice how you can actually tell which parts of the stages are tangible), and didn't completely forget that the CDi games did have redeeming qualities.

I find the inclusions of Shredder and April specifically in NASB really funny for some reason - I can't put my finger on it, I don't think they're bad picks; I'm used to TMNT being a Nick brand; Shredder's battle abilities here are some of the tamest he's ever had; and I don't find the other two turtles' exclusion particularly funny, but there's something kinda humourous about seeing these two characters specifically stand next to Nicktoon C-listers like Jenny and Oblina that I don't really get from the main turtles and Garfield.

I'm surprised by how recent the submissions for DriDim's preschool job were - I was expecting there to be more of a nostalgia emphasis.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 13, 2023

Infinite's back and already they're forcing specific gimmicks into submissions again.

Yaaaay.

Mario Maker 2 online vs. is the most toxic game I've ever played

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 12, 2023

everytime i find out about a new offensive stereotype i am just flabbergasted. "black people can't swim" "jewish cis men get periods" where the **** do bigots get these insane ideas from. they aren't even particularly damning.

smash stage idea: super mario maker for 3ds

its just the super mario maker stage but you can only play as mario and it cant be selected in online arenas

uh oh entirely blank comment section with "view previous comments"

I really don't want to get into the whole "Dreamworks Good Disney Bad" discourse, both can make good movies, a lot of these comparisons are nonsensical, and a fair few of the people peddling this have real bad motives, but at the same time I will say...

The Bad Guys handled themes of implicit bias way better than Zootopia did.

sometimes i wish i bought the creepy eyeball goblin or hello kitty dlc for banana mania but then i remember that they were 5 pounds a pop

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 11, 2023

So, I've made it clear previously that this movie gives me weird accidentally-racist Angry Birds vibes... I just watched a review and... oh my god... how did this script get approved??????? Like, I was not only hoping but also expecting that they just Kangaroo Jacked the trailers to play off of the recent "Disney Bad Dreamworks Good" discourse and Little Mermaid remake backlash, but nope, literally just a movie about a good sapient species and a bad sapient species, and the crazy grandma is the "harbor of truth" (NPI) too. Great message for the kiddies.

There's a really annoying attitude I see a lot to game preservation where people are like "well, the IMPORTANT games are avaliable legally, so what's the issue?". Yeah, no, Final Fantasy 7 isn't any more worth preserving than Awesome Possum. There's more use to a game than playing it, and while some games obviously have had more impact on the wider industry, every game ever made is part of their own small micro-history and can illustrate some kind of moment in time or have some kind of small factor worth enjoying or learning from.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 11, 2023

I'll probably start decreasing the gaps between returning franchises for DriDim soon. Will still mostly be new IPs though.

Having ADHD is cool because you can eat and drink whatever sugary junk you want every day since your body forces you into a week's worth of exercise every day.

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"

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 10, 2023

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.

SUN FANS BE LIKE

THIS IS TERRIBLE

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

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 4, 2023

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.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 4, 2023

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".

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 3, 2023

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.
