Sometimes I like Googling things I know the names of but in a way that makes it seem like I don't know the name of it. You'd be surprised by how hard it is for Google to identify what "cartoon game with cups" means.

America: "I'm so glad we have freedom of speech unlike in China!"
Also America: "Let's ban this app just because it's owned by a Chinese company."
Remember when everybody wanted Hawlucha in Smash for no reason at all? Pokemon Smash speculation is very flavour of the month, I don't think there are that many fans who are specifically devoted to getting one Pokemon in the game - except maybe Eevee fans - everybody just gets hyped up about a single Pokemon for a short amount of time, then moves on to the next.
I decided to buy the original Doom on Switch, I'm really not sure if I'll like it, but it is pretty funny how juxtaposed it is against all the other, more cute and colourful games on my Switch menu.
The more simple a character's game of origin is, the more likely they are to have a super complex set of tools - Min Min, Pac-Man, Ice Climbers...
God help us when we get a Rhythm Heaven rep.
If you don't use the hat the Flying Man outfit looks a LOT like a Plok outfit.
You know how a lot of games give you the option to choose between a male or female character? I kinda wish some games would let you choose your character's age, especially if they had pre-teen and elderly options alongside the obvious adult and teen options.
It'll always be hilarious to me that when the Muppet Movie was being made, Jim Henson wanted the Rainbow Connection to be the "movie magic" scene everyone was talking about since he spent the whole filming session underwater, but everyone was talking about Kermit riding a bike instead, so in the next Muppets movie they put in a scene with ALL of the Muppets riding bicycles just to say "see how easy that is?"
2020 internet views Kirby in the exact opposite way 2011 internet viewed Mario. There are pure opposite, but equally uncomfortable, energies between "MARIO IS AN ANIMAL-ABUSING CHEATER" and "kirby is precious babby uwu"
I'm thinking of writing down some ideas for how to desexualise Peach in Smash (without forcing her to be OOC so she can be a "2010s tough girl") - I've already got an idea for Peach Bomber - same effect, but instead the animation is her gliding with the P-Wing and delivering a big slap (I am aware slaps are quite a stereotype, but I don't really have a problem with them since they don't contradict Peach as a family friendly character) - I chose the P-Wing in specific because she gives Mario one in Mario 3.
While Eggman is my most wanted second Sonic rep, I feel Knuckles makes the most sense from an objective standpoint - Shadow would appeal solely to Adventure and Dark Age fans, Tails would probably appeal more to Classic and "Meta Era" (I hate that term, I just don't know what else to call it) fans than others, I imagine most of Eggman's moveset would be taken from the Classic games so yet again, not enough broad appeal - but Knuckles is a character equally loved by Classic and Modern fans and a major part of almost all Sonic iterations.
I brought 4 games on Switch with part of my birthday money: Super Meat Boy, Mega Man X collection, Shaun the Sheep, and Marble it Up.
I wish the Playlist function could be used for My Music - so many songs stuck on the wrong stage... Gangplank Galleon for Pirate Ship, Galaga Medley for Lylat Cruise, most of the "others" songs for any serious looking stage other than Streetpass Quest...
The reason a lot of people (me included) can't take non-professional game criticism seriously (not that I can take professional game criticism seriously too...) is because of the stupid arguments people throw out. "The tree is low poly!" "the Dark Queen has no boobs!" "the game is 30FPS!" - like seriously, who in their right mind cares?
You know, a lot of people joked about Piranha Plant and "Waluigi tears", but really most Waluigi fans were super happy about the plant. Even before the mysterious absence of Spirit promotions from the first Fighters' Pass we all thought ATs deconfirmed, so it actually felt really good to see any sort of weird lanky Mario character. That being said, given recent rumours; a certain trademark registration; and of course Min Min, it's say it's more "when" than "if" at this point - even if not for Ultimate.
Remember when COPPA happened and everybody put "13+" disclaimers on instrumental music?
Imagine trying to climb a Mario hill. They just go straight upwards.
Why isn't there an offline mode for Switch games? when you bulk buy a ton of games that'd come in really handy.
I kinda wish Sonic and Mario would cross over more. I think that having Sonic playable in Mario Kart wouldn't really ruffle many feathers, and it'd be a fun little cameo to have Mario-themed billboards in the background of a Sonic level or something small like that.
This is something I would've never imagined Nintendo doing - really good move! https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/07/nintendo_brings_back_animal_crossing_camera_trick_but_properly_this_time
Honestly I feel Wii U had better graphics than Ultimate. I'm a sucker for unrealistically bright hues - I loved Rehydrated's graphics for that reason.
The YouTube channel RecD is turning into a bitcoin scam... like, it's actually kinda scary. His channel name and icon changed, a bitcoin live stream with chat disabled is on, with a massive amount of likes out of nowhere, most of his videos disappeared... like, how did this happen?
If you're not gonna show images of the leak, don't make a video about the leak, simple as.
I love the fact Melee builds up Mr. Game and Watch as this legendary god among men. Like:
Final unlock
Final battle in All-Star Mode, with multiple clones joining him
Trophies brag about copies sold, call him "a man of great stature" and states "his image is known far and wide, and respected by gamers everywhere"
Neither All-Star mode, All-Star trophies, nor his congratulation screen use his alt costumes, as if his image is that of some sacred religious figure
I am out of school, and even then back to school ads make me anxious.
I get it, diversity is awesome - but can we PLEASE stop spreading this "Star Fox 2 human pilot is black" misconception? https://www.reddit.com/r/starfox/comments/ctdeoy/so_apparently_a_human_female_and_an_unknown_robot/
Even if she WAS, isn't it better for diversity to just think "oh hey, a black character in a 1995 game, cool!" than to go full-on moe? like, a positive gay or trans character in a 90s or 00s game I could understand that reaction, same with a positive black character in a 50s or 60s movie, but having a black character in any media, while uncommon in the past, hasn't been controversial since... probably the Star Trek kiss in the 60s.
I don't get where the idea of the Cuphead PS4 trailer being scary comes from. It's really cute IMO.
Maybe apart from the "stuffing Cuphead full of hay" part, I could've done without that image.
To me the problem with FE is the quantity, not the quality. If Everyone is Here wasn't a thing, multiple other series had the same amount of characters, or FE didn't get a high amount of newcomers in 3DS/Wii U Byleth probably would've been a decent reveal - but when FE, a mildly niche series that only really has a fanbase within the Nintendo community outside of Japan, has more characters than series like Donkey Kong, Kirby, Zelda and god damn SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, then it's a problem, and stripping Byleth of his sword or revealing him earlier the Fighters' Pass wouldn't change a little bit.
The worst thing about being British is the sense of guilt and dread over your ancestors' genocidal colonialism.
The second worst thing about being British is having parents and teachers scold you for saying American slang. "I just wanna say aight, aight?"
Little Mac mains are the biggest chads in Smash. Marth (or "inferior" clones in general) mains and (non-Sans) meme Mii mains come close too.
So, they're making a Donkey Kong wall callendar for 2021, which might not seem notable if not for 2 things: 1. as far as I can tell they've never made a DK wall calendar before, and doing it now seems a little bit... well, suspicious is a bit too strong a word, but... telling, I guess?, and 2. King K. Rool, using his Paon render, is in the calendar, getting top billing for April, despite it being mostly themed around and using renders from the Returns duology.
It's quite an exaggeration to say nobody knew who Mr. G&W was at the time of Melee's release. G&W Gallery was a mainstay on the Game Boy platforms at the time!
Don't you hate it when you sign up for a new Twitter account and they pull the ol' phone number bait-and-switch AGAIN?
How long was it since the Game Freak behind the scenes video? because we've got new Drill Dozer content for the first time in ages: a placeholder badge in DP's beta.
Kotaku posted an article stating for a fact the unused Star Fox 2 character is black because of her hair.
If you just Google search "star fox 2 human" you'll find an earlier dumped spritesheet from almost a year ago featuring her with clearly white skin, right on the first row of results.
I'm starting to understand why people hate that website.

Business websites' articles on the Gigaleak: Look at the SNEAKY HACKER MAN, covered in SHADOWS and TYPING - be SCARED
Gaming websites' articles on the Gigaleak: haha long yoshi
Wah!!
Nothing embarrasses me more than my edgy teen self genuinely, unironically thinking the Gumball "SJW" scene was biting social satire.
Given how popular Mario RPGs are, I wonder why they've never pulled the reverse card and made a (proper) Zelda platformer. I imagine it'd be somewhat like the original Prince of Persia games. -
