  • if PaRappa got in Smash, I hope they'd be as devoted to Rodney's aesthetic as they were to the P5 aesthetic with Joker. Give him a unique victory screen with the character tiled borders from PaRappa 1 for example.
    I used to really trust PapaGenos but honestly he's getting way too tinfoil hat for me, the moment that broke the camel's back for me was when he said that Japanese Nintendo revealing Smash invitation stationary while American Nintendo released a Paper Mario ad that involves an invitation "isn't a coincidence".
    I'm gonna be hung from the gallows for saying this, but I love Activision, at least as a Crash fan with no experience of Acti's other properties. They have a feedback forum, they are willing to listen to fan demand while also making the games distinctly theirs, they don't go overboard with the MTX, they understand the fans and their in-jokes, and they're willing to bring back even the most obscure of characters. Nintendo should be taking notes for how they handle Mario in future. Imagine a Mario Kart with monthly free updates for a whole year, who wouldn't want that?

    I think it all comes down to cultural differences. While Nintendo don't want their fans to be alienated from unfamiliarity and simply remain in the comfort zone (at least until a shake-up occurs, from within the company or elsewhere), some of Acti's dev companies just happen to be big fans of Crash that want to do as much with the property as possible (at least within the five-year plan).

    The animosity is mostly from the COD side and whatever Blizzard has been doing the last couple of years.
    If/when they make more Classic Sonic games I really hope they get TJ Davis to make new vocal songs, 90s house fits Classic Sonic just as well as hard rock fits Modern Sonic.

    Makes sense given Mania's reception and success. What Sega really needs to do now though is separate 2D from 3D and let it stand on it's own without needing to try to appeal to Classic Sonic nostalgia to get people to buy.

    Well, nothing has been happening since Team Racing, doing something would be a start.

    Apart from comic characters finally showing up in a mobile game, anyways.
    The "Something about World of Light" video has 27M views but is filled with tons of in-jokes - like, what percentage of this video's viewerbase knows why there's a mashup of a Swedish guy shouting "grand dad!", Gangnam Style, and an idol anime song?
    One thing I don't exactly get about the whole "we can't modify Mario characters" thing is that a few of the paper partners were completely original creations with basically no ties to existing Mario characters - do you remember seeing any purple-skinned one-legged witches or Rubenesque wind ghosts in a canon Mario game? why not just create more new species?

    Or why not just have old partners return? It’s not like this would mess up any continuity or anything

    I guess that even regular original 2D characters don't cut it anymore (or they pretend that those don't exist, due to association) apart from the requisite tagalong character tied to the game's gimmick. It seems that characters that are either fully in 3D or straight-up objects get used as a loophole.

    Yes, that means we could fight crumbled-up paper balls and dust bins in the future.
    So yeah, seems I was right and they pulled a Cars 3 with Origami King, but it's still a good game from what I've heard so who cares?

    "[pull a] Cars 3"
    Using an out of context scene in promotional material to make a work of media appear darker or more suspenseful, Antonym of "[pull a] Kangaroo Jack".
    Can you imagine a world where Diddy's name is actually "Diet DK"? Imagine the Smash announcer's booming voice proclaiming "DIET DK!", imagine the colourful menus of the Mario spin-offs projecting "Diet DK" in a family-friendly, bouncy font, imagine a game called "Diet DK Racing" or "Diet's Kong Quest"
    I think the GenoStop leak is just the same case as that Nintendo of Spain (I think) representative saying Rayman would be in 3DS/Wii U when he just meant the trophy, mostly because they're speaking in past tense and not specifically about a playable fighter - plus do you REALLY expect GameStop to be in on the know about unrevealed game content, especially DIGITAL content?
    My predictions for the next direct are:
    National Dex. Want level 0, expectation level 80
    Waluigi in Smash. Want level 100, expectation level 60
    Mario remakes. Want level 50, expectation level 99.9
    New NSO emulator. Want level 90, expectation level 50
    Mario Kart 9. Want level 10, expectation level 70
    The thing about the Mario World TV show is that when you get older you understand the social commentary and references in it, but instead of explaining everything, that only makes it even more nonsensical.
    One thing I feel those who still believe in the console wars don't get is that Nintendo fans KNOW Nintendo's hardware is garbage. It is an undisputed fact. The exclusives and gimmicks are what makes Nintendo Nintendo.

    I think what he’s saying is that the hardware is legitimately just not as advanced-in terms of power and graphics and other stuff-than PC and other consoles. The Switch isn’t bad, but some people take the stance that the Switch is bad because it’s underpowered compared to other offerings-and they’re right.

    It's still not a bad console.

    We didn’t say that. We said it’s graphically-and in terms of power-inferior to other options. The Switch is a great console, Wario Wario Wario meant that those people-those who think the Switch is bad due to its low power and inferior visuals-don’t take into consideration the “exclusives and gimmicks that make Nintendo Nintendo.”
    In my final years of school, my best friend was a lot younger than me (by about 6 or 7 years I think?) and I introduced him to Smash Ultimate. He picked up the mechanics quicky and we soon got on equal footing, that being said, he was a sore loser and very spammy. I may have ignited the flames of him being a sore loser by playing as ridiculous Miis and choosing Mr. G&W every time he played as Ness.
    Is it just me or did every PS1 mascot have a REALLY rough transition to the PS2? Enter the Dragonfly, Angel of Darkness, Wrath of Cortex - the only big PS1 star I can think of who's PS2 outing can compare to the initial PS1 games is PaRappa.
    The Chicken Run 2 recasts are a right shame, but unfortunately super common in animation. I can however say with confidence it was a Netflix decision, not Aardman. I don't plan to boycott the film (my stance on boycotts has always been rather simple, "if it's a quality product, support 'em") but if they don't get Julia to reprise Ginger it'll be just the slightest bit awkward of an experience. Here's a petition you can sign, if it makes waves we could brighten the future of theatrical western voice acting. https://www.change.org/p/aardman-animations-do-not-replace-julia-sawalha-for-the-chicken-run-sequel

    Well, the Ginger recast is a shame, the Rocky recast not so much...

    Wouldn't be the first time an American company got heavily involved with an Aardman work, as the Wallace & Gromit movie deal came from Dreamworks, and they wanted to insert a bit of regional humor in that.
    Playing through Dynamite Headdy - a game I feel is somehow overlooked and overrated at the same time, it deserves way more attention as it is a quality title, but it absolutely isn't one of the best platformers of the 16 bit era as people say, even on the Japanese version. Platforming is great but bosses are pretty bad, which would be OK if it weren't for the fact a lot of this game's meat is the bosses
    Zygarde has the worst luck

    -Its instalment never came out
    -They turned it into a blob and dog
    -It's a novice class in SSBU
    -Its shiny is ugly.

    doesn't it evolve into a legend class spirit

    It's shiny is fine. Probably one of the best. And the blob thing was anime exclusive. They have no sentience in the games. And the dog actually makes some sense honestly.
    Being a Counter Throw using Mii Brawler main when Byleth was new was an absolute experience. Miis are Byleth's mortal enemy in more ways than one.

    "Gameplay for a title in a franchise new to developer WayForward" is one of the biggest word sandwiches I've ever read on official gaming press content. I'm guessing it means another indie crossover like Cadence of Hyrule. Best guess would be a Metroid game given WayForward's uh... thing for skimply dressed females.... but I'd love them to give the DuckTales Remastered treatment to Drill Dozer (as long as they don't age up Jill)
