I finally played the four ps3 exclusives I got my system for: mgs4, demons souls, yakuza dead souls, and playstation all stars. I’m glad for it but it is kinda funny the games I was interested are all just alright (at least compared to other games in their series/genre)

Another thing I really like about knowing video game sales is that sometimes it’s really shocking finding out a game from another region is way more successful than you’d think.

Like for example I recently found out about the KartRider series from South Korea, most people in north america probably haven’t heard of it and it did poorly here but it had over 380 accounts made for it. It’s a free game but still a “mario kart rip off racer” having more than 5 times the sales of mario kart 8 is impressive

I feel like at least a handful of smash characters technically debuted in a demo disc and not their own game. You could probably be really annoying about correcting people about their debuts if you wanted to.

I recently found out the people who make joueur de grenier, essentially the french angry video game nerd equivilant, both have cameos in the french dub of the dungeons and dragons movie. I don't know what to make of it, it's just a really random fact

I’ve come to a revelation, calling something brainrot is the 2020s equivilent of calling a meme “cancer”

I didn’t realize DuckTales remastered wasn’t on modern hardware, that feels weird

Apparently Tekken 8 has rollback (even if it’s flawed) so I can’t make the “Tuff E Nuff has rollback but Tekken doesn’t” joke

I was looking through a city I used to live in on google maps and I remember someone saying a diner was run by a cult. I look at reviews and I love how every one said “yeah they’re run by a cult but this is the best damn food I’ve ever had in my life”

I like knowing video game sales numbers because even though they’re flawed they give a good picture of the games industry, but there seems to be a big amount of people who will just deny that a game did well if it has massive sales numbers.

For example, Horizon Zero Dawn sold 20 million copies which is ridiculously huge (more sales than the best selling game on the best selling console) but people still accuse it of being an industry plant series or being wrongfully pushed by Sony. I’ve heard people say it only sold that well because it was bundled with the PS4 which somehow makes it irrelevant now and I just can’t understand being so incurious about the games industry.

I’ve seen a lot of smash fans say jigglypuff should be cut from the roster because her reasons for being a character in Smash 64 are “outdated”. Specifically saying she was only in that game because her moveset was easy to make, people only like her in the modern games because of that moveset, and that she wouldn’t be in smash if it weren’t for her legacy in the first game.

That all applies to captain falcon too but no one talks about cutting him, justice for jigglypuff

Somehow my broken phone battery resulted in a more embarrassing story. I was about to send a presentation to a professor because I had previously sent it to the wrong email address of hers but my phone kept turning off so everyone sat there for like 5 minutes as I kept trying to send it as my phone keeps turning off

my stupid headcanon is that luigi was ashamed to tell everyone his first game was on the game and watch and just said it was arcade mario bros but after meeting mr game and watch he learned to embrace it

My phone (which is only two months old mind you) has a glitch where it randomly powers off every once and a while and today I was taking the bus and trying to scan my bus pas on it when it powered off. The hater ass bus driver thought I did that just to get a free ride and after I told him abour the glitch he asks to take my phone to “see what’s wrong” and immediately just turns it back on and gives it back to me. I then go to the transit app and it shuts down again and I must have looked like the most pathetic man in the world as he said “just have a seat” and I walked onto the bus, defeated.

The Minecraft movie looks so busy cinematography-wise. Even in the trailers the backgrounds were so unnecessarily detailed it makes it look so much more ugly and I don’t even know where to look

I genuinely don’t know if the games for impact or most anticipated game category is the worse game awards category

Update #2: I sent my mom the buck bumble theme song and she said it was a “masterpiece”

I’ve watched a moderate amount of the simpsons before but no bits from the show that I saw stood out to me as particularly memorable or funny the way other cartoons I saw as a kid were. Now I keep on getting clips from the show reccomended to me on youtube and they’re absolutely great bits I would remember that I don’t even think I’ve seen anybody actually talk about. maybe I just wasn’t paying attention enough.

Update: I sent my mom the Pictionary NES title theme and she said she “definitely remembers” it and that it’s a “banger”

Two things can be true about the game awards at the same time:
1. Their nominees really don’t matter, the show has no authority, and people pay way too much attention to them
2. The game awards are reaching Super Bowl numbers of viewership and they do matter to a lot of people in the industry so it’s not like someone’s wrong for wanting to pay attention to them

Due to coca cola’s AI add, it is my moral obligation to consume 2000 dr peppers (their competition) to stop AI

I am a staunch defender of the phrase “nothing burger.” People say the burger part adds nothing but the metaphor of biting into a burger with nothing on it is a very memorable one, and has a very distinct dissapointed feeling

Despite growing up with the Wii, I've never actually played Wii Sports even though it was bundled with the Wii I had. While looking through some old electronics I found both wii sports and wii sports resort so maybe I'll actually play them eventually.

I didn't even hear about thanksgiving when it was thankgsiving this year but I definitely did hear about black friday

genuinely why the hell did they let reggie fils aime present the indie award at the game awards lmao

My mom said she played pictionary on NES as a kid and was probably confused when I excitedly asked if she thought the soundtrack was good

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 15, 2024

Is there actually any evidence for the claims GTA 6 was 2 billion dollars to make? Not only would that number be completely ridiculous for a video game or a movie, that would be outrageous if you’re building a theme park or something.

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 15, 2024

It’s really funny to me there’s a massive controversy because some YouTuber filmed himself driving and just casually sped three times faster than the limit and kept it in the video. We found youtube drama just as funny as lunchly somehow.

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 15, 2024

It’s funny when people say “Batman just beats up poor people” when like half of his most iconic villains have PHDs

Champion of Hyrule · Nov 14, 2024

I can’t take historical dramas seriously. You’re watching a movie with a medieval setting and then Matt Damon just shows up.

I read Wanted, the collection of short stories the creator of one piece wrote before making one piece. What’s really interesting to me is that most of the stories were made with the intention of having a big two page spread and a story building to it, which is a cool way of envisioning writing stories, having a big moment envisioned first and imagining a story building to it. Gives a lot of context to one piece as a story and how it was written too.

I feel like for a lot of people in the west if they hear Spanish (the language) their first thought will be Latin America but there’s still some understanding that it’s tied to country of Spain. But if someone talks about Portuguese NOBODY thinks of Portugal at all and not just Brazil. Duolingo even has the flag of Spain to represent Spanish and the flag of Brazil to represent Portuguese. They colonized way too hard fr.

It’s actually crazy you can get animation cels from batman the animated series at gamestop for 25 dollars

I watched a walking tour of the nintendo land at universal japan yesterday and I really don’t know what people were expecting for the DK area. The Mario area is basically just one square and pretty much everything takes inspiration from either 3D World or Mario Kart 8. That’s not to say it’s bad, it’s just that if the Mario area doesn’t even reference the retro Mario games heavily why would you believe the DK area would?
