Bubsy was a well intentioned attempt to pay tribute to Sonic, but was screwed over by a money hungry publisher and a lack of game design knowledge. Most of Bubsy 1’s infamous flaws can be explained with the knowledge Michael Berlyn began his career making text adventures, which are more trial-and-error and wits based than on reflexes or skill. Bubsy also understood the Sonic momentum physics a lot better than most Sonic clones and even a lot of later official Sonic games.

Hammer Bros in 2D Mario vs. Hammer Bro in 3D Mario is a perfect example of “buff Doge vs. crying Cheems”

If you call people who eat meat murderers you’re more trivialising murder than demonising meat.

I don’t know how Vailskibum manages to fit so much filler into 2 minute videos. Most of his videos could literally be compressed into Vines, which is a shame since he often reports on cartoon news that can be quite hard to access due to being so niche.

Pretty much every Star Wars line that isn’t a meme was a “nerd in-joke” beforehand. It’s just the same thing with a few extra layers of self-awareness, which applies to most modern memes compared to older memes or forms of humour.

“Wait, Rampage was based on a game?” - literally everyone in 2018.

Guru Larry’s Miyamoto video is filled with inaccuracies, but it’d make for a great redo/re-evaluation, since some of the info there is legit and new info has come to light since. I think Nintendo just isn’t a spot Bundy is familiar with.

Meanwhile, in an alternate universe where all those revamps of Project Dream ate into the budget so much, Rareware needed another big movie tie in to recoop the losses.

I love the idea of a villain redemption arc where instead of being all philosophical it’s just a wacky Saturday morning cartoon villain trying to do good things but resorting to over exaggerated or slightly malicious solutions since they’ve only known a life of villainy. I love concepts like that that are hilarious but also a little heartwarming. Kinda wish they did something like that with Dingodile in Crash 4 (though I still really like how he turned out in that game)

TBH 2020 has been a really good year for me.

I think a lot about the time I posted “more 3D platformers should use a run button” and a certain someone aggressively replied “NO”

Sausage Party is such a strange film to me - the whole concept is “what if there were Pixar movies for adults?” but like, there’s already a whole studio that makes Pixar movies for adults. They’re called Pixar.

Olive Garden was a good choice for the Sonic movie’s product placement given that if I wasn’t familiar with American restaurants before hand I’d totally assume it to be a zone name from a Sonic game I never played.

Lloyd from Mother and Jeff from EarthBound would both make really cool fighters. They’d do the same things, but I like Lloyd better so I’d go with him. Ninten doesn’t strike me as having an interesting moveset so I’d prefer Lloyd as a Beginnings rep.

It’s kinda disturbing how on the comments of the fake anti-piracy screens there are people defending the fictional, obviously evil Nintendo. Really goes to show how insane brand loyalty can be.

Don’t you just love it when studios canonise fanon content?

Themes of Undertale: Pacifism, diplomacy

Some Undertale fans: send someone death threats over a thicc dragon.

You can probably count on one hand how many real anti-piracy screens are scary.

-Puggsy (because of music alone, not the screen)
-DKC2
-DKC3
-Cuphead (possibly)

That’s it. 3 fingers and a partially lifted pinky.

I think WAY too much about how sexual dimorphism works in the Mario universe, like these characters are the same species from the same series:

Why would Mario characters even need a sex? They deliver babies by stork, therefore sexuality isn’t a thing - makes sense, E rated fantasy world - which you would assume means the Mario universe doesn’t need sexes, just genders - but there are Mario characters who are explicitly stated to be transgender, meaning they had to be assigned something at birth - HOW DOES THIS WORK?

This rant was originally much longer and much less coherent.

Five is the first number not to have a homonym.

It’s pretty funny how one of the game companies that is the most often lauded as pro-consumer has a name that literally means “service games”

lmao people keep dc’ing me because I choose pac land on battle arenas

Sega were so edgy in the 90s that even their preschool education console’s ad featured blatant casual transphobia. (TW: blatant casual transphobia)

I don’t get how “you’re not alone” is supposed to be a comforting phrase - oh yeah, that’ll totally help me with my struggles, the weighty knowledge that millions of other people are suffering just like, if not worse than, me.

(Don’t worry, I’m fine RN. I just think about this phrase often)

I gotta say, this absolutely feels like a fitting theme song for the letter H

WHY IS HE CALLED MCGRUFF THE CRIME DOG IF HE STOPS CRIME SHOULDN’T HE BE CALLED MCGRUFF THE LAW DOG OR SOMETHING

Seriously, why can’t you do 3v1s on Battle Arenas?

They could’ve easily called the KFConsole the KFComputer.

Maybe I just don’t understand the term, but I can’t really see where the idea of Soul being a “white saviour” movie comes from. To me it came off more as a film where both main characters saved each other.

Someone needs to make a YouTube video about all the misconception around MS and Rare fast. I can’t believe people still say “Microsoft killed Rare!”

I had a weird dream where I went to a 90s Nickelodeon-themed theme park and they were selling pirated Wii games. At the end of the dream, a bunch of giant snakes came into the park.

I was reporting a post on NintendoLife, and one of their rules is “don’t discuss moderation issues in public”.

That’s hella messed up, and I say that as someone who aligns as authoritarian left.

People who think bad comedy can’t bounce back and become funny like bad drama does clearly haven’t seen Minecraft with Gadget.

Just saying, if Advent Children content can be included in Smash there’s really no excuse for Eddie, Let Me Go Back to not be a music track.

When you look at them closely “wholesome memes” reek of toxic positivity.

I often see people question things like the Arby’s Cuphead promotion and the use of Cuphead in the new Nintendo hospital booths thinking Cuphead is just a niche adult animation connoisseur thing - as someone who only left school at the middle of quarantine (there were multiple year groups in said school) I can tell you that couldn’t be further from the truth. Kids go crazy over Cuphead, one kid I knew hated hard games and didn’t understand why I prefer stuff like Crash over say, Yoshi’s Crafted World, and even he loved Cuphead.

Imagine if Wario didn’t hijack this ad - it’d just be a blank green rectangle that says “This time it’s MARIO” with the MARIO poorly aligned.

Funny story: I was playing Dedede against Wolf, CPU, and out of a box came two Fake Smash Balls that were basically revolving around me - I crouched and waited for the Wolf to attack me, and in turn the fake balls.

He got KO’d.

I remember seeing the Birdo maid cosplay as a kid and thinking it was just supposed to be an eerie, Tim Burton sorta thing.

How wrong I was.
