I heard Weird Al's eBay song as a kid and my main thought was "main, I wish I could live like that!"
I stand by that. Once I have a secure revenue source and financial independence, I am getting into the hoarder life. Not the collector life, the hoarder life, there is a significant difference. I'm looking for junk, not priceless artefacts or priceless-artefact-adjacent junk
genuinely just saw someone say unironically that the nintendo seal of quality ever meant anything other than "we want to control other studios' software output and make money off of games we had no involvement in" in the year of our lord 2024.
Working on a SSBU stage list revamp... prepare for shenanigans
Crash Bandicoot 4 being such a good platformer when its engine and characters were designed with a MOBA in mind is a miracle and a half.
I know I've become a bit of an expert at pedantically picking apart Sakurai's probably-slightly-mistranslated words, so it really escapes me how I never really considered how strange it was that Brawl strayed away from Melee's gameplay due to concerns over players' hands, and then he immediately made Kid Icarus: Uprising.
I am only 8 minutes into the new Nick Knacks, the character has only been on screen for like 20 seconds, and I'm already convinced that Artie, the Strongest Man in the World NEEDS to be the live action rep in the non-existant NASB sequels, there is no other option.
I don't know why the Sonic Eraser versus song always gets singled out as the "worst Sonic song", I find it quite catchy myself - the Sonic Eraser puzzle song however? Yeah, that's the worst one.
Continuing from my last post about game trailers as individual art and identities from the games they're marketing, I actually think that if a character like the bus driver or Dashing Super Guy got in Smash, they should have their own series symbol that represents their specific advert. I think a general "advertising" series symbol (a dollar sign or something?) would be too catch-all and hard to decide on virtue of Nintendo ads sharing next to no iconography, placing these ads as part of their game's series creates a tonal disconnect and potentially disappoints fans of the series (so a seperate series symbol would be a good way to say "No, Dashing Super Guy isn't the 4th Kirby rep, he's not in over Susie"), and a lot of the individual ads would lend themselves quite well to series symbols on virtue of advertising, as a medium, revolving around iconography - Dashing Super Guy could have his grin + sunglasses for instance.
Looking back on the NASB speculation cycle now the series is dead, it's extremely gross - not just "mean and weird", but like actually disturbing - that I mentioned multiple times that hype culture caused me distress, the other users acknowledged that, and still tried to get me to shut up whenever I expressed that I was glad the games had no hype culture past NASB1 prerelease.
Maybe I've just been Smash-pilled for too long and anything that isn't like Smash feels special to me after taking the NASB pill, but there's something weirdly yet profoundly special to me about when games (particularly of the retro variety) and their marketing exist as two seperate entities, if that makes sense? In the sense of them being two seperate productions with little production overlap, in the sense of them having different music/character designs/aesthetics/e.t.c, and most importantly in the sense of the adverts fading into obscurity for only die-hards (and commercial connoisseurs) to find, while the game remains in the cultural conciousness.
this gets stuck in my head a lot
Still the most based game dev moment ever.
To anyone complaining about the current state of the NASB2 roster, I'd like to assure those individuals: I see all of your posts, hear you loud & clear, and won't do a god damn thing about it

I really hope the next Smash game gets leaked in its entirerty. Preferably before it has gameplay footage out, but I'd take gradual leaks.

Something utterly ridiculous and dumb I noticed about Brawl's announcer calls that would certainly not be approved on VGFacts on virtue of being very speculative:
If you listen to Smash announcer calls, the tone of voice always relates to the character somehow - like "Pichu!" in a jovial tone or "Bowser..." in a forboding tone - in the Japanese version of Brawl, which has the same American announcer VA, Bowser's name is "Koopa", and it's said in a cheery tone instead of a forboding one - so like, surely that means Pat Cashman thought he was talking about Koopa Troopa, right?
This is the greatest YouTube recommendation ever. (trust me, I know the title-thumbnail combination makes it look bad but it isn't)
This should be the Official Theme Song for dirt
I had a dream where Smash Remix released its final update, and SpongeBob was in it.
this began as a joke but over time i slowly realised it would be peak
I had a dream where there was a new Smash, and it implemented a really bizarre mechanic where each character had something they could just... drop. Like Little Mac could take off his gloves, ROB could detach his arms, Link could drop his sheild, and use them as a projectile.
The Nintendo Museum is uhh... really embarassing. Not gonna sugar coat it, it looks like worse than I expected, at least judging it as a museum.
The Nintendo Museum has really big shoes to fill when Atari 50 exists and is openly informing people that Atari devs were potheads and given turkey coupons instead of payment.
I hope the Skibidi Toilet movie takes so long to come out that nostalgic 20s kids will be saying "they ruined my childhood!" per Michael Bay tradition.
watching the pepsi jet documentary and for some reason there's a dramatic retelling of the guy seeing the ad for the first time where the lighting goes red and everything in his rooms shakes
It's funny to me, in a dystopian way, that the idea of homebrew and unlicensed games made for profit being illegal is just an elaborate gaslight performed by giving consoles mechanisms to intentionally break.
And also that the only reason we even know homebrew games are legal is because of the Bubsy guys.
This image is the only pure thing to come from the ballot - not the only good thing, just the only pure thing. Both good and not the direct result of a corporation's unpaid market research survey statistics. Sorry Gangplank Galleon music remix.
It is really funny to me that one of the ringout effects in MultiVersus is a literal advert - logo and all - for a regionally specific TV marathon. Imagine getting flung into space by non-murderous E10+ Jason Vorhees and seeing "WATCH SCOOBY DOO SCOOBTOBER ALL MONTH" flash above your eyes.
If MVS adds unique victory themes, they should be based on logo of the WB subsidary they're from instead of the source material. Mostly because I really like the HBO feature presentation and Cartoon Cartoons logo jingles.
I had a dream where Uncle Ben's rebranded due to racism and was changed to Bill Gates'
I don't like playercount D-measuring contests, but the idea of these two Sanrio-looking fellas who are both called "Verb Guy" having beef with one another is hilarious.
It's funny how Harmonic got cut from the NASB competitive stage list 3 times across 2 games.
lmao i kept clicking the "update via internet" button so much for the nasb update (mostly so i can be the first to post about it on the thread and make a post paying attention to the stages instead of the character) that i got a unique switch crash screen
dont google supermarket from king of the hill
my favourite christmas songs (as someone who hates christmas)
- buy that merch (jake paul)
- christmas in july (hhgregg)
- slavery makes the world go round (elf bowling)
- ho ho dance (a hint of christmas, popularised by rocko's modern christmas: you can't squeeze cheer from a cheese log!)
- holiday broadcasting (gex 3)
- always coca-cola jingle (not the christmas version, but they kept using the christmas version and stopped using the original so it's technically a christmas song now)
- grandpa's gonna sue the pants offa santa (grandma got run over by a reindeer)
