So that's where my love of demoscene/keygen/hi-fi chiptune came from!

New creation thread
Animated Smash Bros. (title TBA) creation thread - ANIME/GOKU CONFIRMED
"What do you mean, Sakurai-san? Smash is going to skip a whole generation? That's our top seller! The Switch 2's success is dependant on it!" "Yes, I'm adamant. I need to take a break. Make a spin-off to fill the gap for all I care! Go against all my wishes, Smash just isn't doing it for me...

You know what? I'm gonna make a non-game character fighters' pass with 8 characters - 2 from anime, 2 from 'toons, 2 from live action, and 2 from comics.
ANIME: Goku (popular request), Luffy (moveset potential)
CARTOONS: SpongeBob (popular request), Wallace and Gromit (personal bias)
LIVE ACTION: Darth Vader (moveset potential), Jurassic Park Velociraptor (more unconventionally shaped characters is nice)
COMICS: Batman, Spider-Man (good tone contrast, both have better moveset potential than their more iconic/important iron-clad and kryptonite-weak counterparts)
Google's CGI Baby Yoda is terrifying. Reminds me of this time as a kid when I accidentally installed a CGI daddy long legs onto my iGoogle and was terrified for weeks.
"So, you think adding non-game characters to Smash is a good idea?"
My opinion on this is never gonna change: not gonna happen, but it'd be amazing if it did. Don't try to change my mind, it won't work. SpongeBob in Smash will always be a dream, but a dream is better than a nightmare.
The concept of Epic Mickey would've worked way better if instead of Mickey they used Felix the Cat (who is apparently owned by DreamWorks... who bought him exclusively to sell clothes.), and instead of obscure Disney IPs they just used whatever public domain or low-licensing-cost 30s-through-70s cartoon characters they can find.
I've said a lot of harsh things about ScreenRant, but I fully forgive them now that I know they are based and fourth-party-pilled.
Mickey Mouse Would Be A Better Smash Bros. Fighter Than Sora
Mickey is more deserving than Sora.

This is what claymation animators call "a monument of our achievements and memories". Everyone else calls it "body horror"
RWBY is a cartoon. A very poorly animated one.
I once saw someone on this site saying Nintendo should buy Sony and Microsoft...
That is one of the most despicable things a corporation could possibly do.
9 year old me when they said "crap" in the opening of Spliced:
Sephiroth's Final Smash feels so good with rumble on.
Box Fox is Balan Wonderworld's equivalent to Shadow swearing or the human-on-hog kiss, the utterly absurd moment that really embodies every conceptual flaw of the game (the realistic and serious tone of 06, the brooding edge of Shadow, and the blind overambition of Wonderworld)
Reject modernity
Return to tradition
This game is garbage, utter trash, but it has an amazing concept - a golf platformer. I'm surprised no devs have tried to right this game's wrongs. I guess Glover was a bit similar?
(Yes, you play as Scratchy, not Itchy. I don't know why but my best guess is as a way to justify the game's absurd difficulty and your minimal defensive capabilities)
If YouTube had stricter rules against misleading titles/thumbnails they'd have a significant drop in active channels.
Sonic Colours is a game that people like for the exact same reason others dislike it.
I didn't laugh once while making this image, so I don't know why I want to post it.
I've seen so many people say things like "2014 was 7 years ago? I'm so old!" that my reaction is now "2014 was only 7 years ago? I'm so young!"
I wonder if we'll ever find out the veracity of this.
The Strange Development of Diddy Kong Racing 2
The following information is based on my insider knowledge regarding the development behind Diddy Kong Racing 2. For the longest time, Nintendo has been trying to figure out how to create a sequel …kevincallahangames.wordpress.com
Message to the legends who pulled off the recent PS1 and PS2 prototype leaks:
The advertisements for Spyro 1, 2, 3, and Enter the Dragonfly are part of a consistent, tragic, and Joker-esque narriative.
In a series of adverts for Spyro 1, a sheep protests the launch of the Spyro game because the reptilian star's anti-mutton actions. In-universe, nobody takes the sheep's cries for action seriously. This establishes that Spyro is a famous star and there is some opposition to his fame.
In the first advert for the second game, Spyro drops by the house of one of his biggest fans. Said fan, a claymation boy named Mikey, abuses Spyro and treats him as a toy. Spyro retaliates with a headbutt and, off-screen, his fire breath. I will not justify either party's actions in this scenario, but it seems that this physical assault, even if in retaliation, against a child had major repercussians on Spyro's image and in turn mental health, as seen in the next advert
In the second game's second advert, we see a different side to the dragon - now tracking down, fat-shaming and murdering snowmen unprovoked. The snowmen are scared of Spyro, everybody knows about his violent actions and he is now feared. The infamy has got to Spyro's head and he's now lashing out against everybody as he has nothing to lose. He spares his second victim's life, but still takes the time to mock him while he runs off screaming.
Then... the finale of the tragic series. Spyro 3's advert depicts Spyro at his utmost despicable, destroying a whole city for no reason - including the fans who are still standing by him after all the controversy. Spyro's career is over and this is his "Want to hear a joke, Murray?" moment.
Finally, we have the epilogue. Entier the Dragonfly's advert makes no vocal mention of Spyro as a game character or celebrity - now he has become the Jack the Ripper of livestock, sneaking into farms and harassing animals and their owners using his new powers. The spotlight was shined away from him as an act of "justice", to "take away his platform" if you will... and now he can do anything he wants without the world batting an eye. Spyro has won and the world has lost.
Yes, I'm looking too deep into this and making stuff up. That's the joke.
Monkey Ball: Touch and Roll is super underrated. The touch screen controls works really well and the levels are right out of 1&2, some literally and some spiritually
On le reddit someone was spreading enbyphobic and fatphobic conspiracy theories about how Kroger ads are trying to "supress sexuality and fitness", I responded explaining there is no conspiracy and it's just poor character design, and the person I responded to had the worst possible comeback: In that comment I said in passing that breasts aren't actually sexual and are really just an extremely common kink, which wasn't my main point, and his only response to my entitre comment was "boobs are nice."
My game analysis side is starting to seep into my recent obsession with Pac-Man 2, and now I'm realising that despite the joke people often parrot about PM2 being that it's unrecognisably distant to the original Pac-Man game, it's actually a game that better represents the soul of the first game than the World games or the current day maze games: a concept so kooky, experimental, and niche - counter-cultural even - that nobody could imagine it working without hindsight or playing the game for themselves.
That's the future I want for the Pac-Man IP: not more platformers or more mazes but rather a platform for the experimental, absurd, and wonderful ideas nobody would want to play without an iconic character on the box-er, download page PNG. Time's-a-changing. I have no ideas what these ideas would be, but that proves my point if anything: make Pac-Man the jack of all trades with an unexpected, bizarre trick at every turn.
You can only pick one.
The minecart that takes away Koala Kong in Crash 1 is the greatest game hero of all time.
Untitled Goose Game: is basically an interactive hit piece on how terrible common fowl are
PETA:
If I was more patient and had better knowledge of maths I'd totally try to find out what percentage of Balan Wonderworld copies were sold to YouTubers.
The best thing about analysing video games is when you have that "eurika!" moment and realise just what makes a game you love so good. Two moments I remember vividly are:
1. Watching this video and upon the first mention of "momentum physics" having every little detail of the Classic Sonic games and why the Modern games seem so far-removed to me start to fall into place in my head at once
and 2. Playing Crash Bandicoot 3, wiggling the joystick a little at a jetpack spot, noticing that Crash is locked to 8 dimensions, and thusly realising that's why Crash games always felt more precise.
People tend to say Sonic was either "always supposed to be like anime" or "turned from Mickey Mouse to Dragon Ball", but as a Classic fan I don't see it either way. I see him as a middle ground between the western and eastern tropes of animation with a tiny bit more Mickey DNA than Goku. I like the idea of Sonic being a malleable IP that can be either edgy or silly depending on the game/show/comic rather than flip-flopping a universal tone every 5-10 years (as long as they don't go too edgy like with the guns and hyperrealistic castles and such) That's what they did early in Sonic's lifespan and we ended up with two of the most beloved game TV adaptations ever.
TBT being liked at all is an acomplishment for a DiC show, let alone being beloved.
If you think the YouTube ad results for "Mario Pillow" were weird in that picture, you should see them now. Some memelords have been tagging dumb pillows as "Mario" on RedBubble it seems.
It's really weird how low the viewcount on Zendaya is Meechee is. When it first came out it was trending and there were news articles about it, but it only has 1M views to this day. Either this is some WB marketing conspiracy (kinda like how the surprised Pikachu meme was theorised to be a marketing stunt for Detective Pikachu), or it was really popular on some other site.
I think the wording of the hashtag "#BringBackNationalDex" was the main reason a lot of people, myself included, opposed it. The NatDex was one of the smallest issues with SwSh, if it even is an issue, but the hashtag generalised and simplified it down to a distaste of the one element of SwSh that was absolutely inevitable at some point. The big fuss about trees didn't help either.
Just realised everything in New Pokemon Snap is named after beans in reference to "Jack and Beans".
Is this a meme or excert from a lift-the-flap book for infants?
I keep on forgetting that Mew has hands.
While I'm quite strictly against the idea of Nintendo Kart, I wouldn't be opposed to turning Mario Tennis or Golf into a crossover - though I'd have different standards for what characters could get in compared to Smash (cartoony aesthetic and oddball/obscure characters would be favoured, but moveset or historical relevance is no longer a factor at all and popularity is barely a factor) -
