Since Nintendo don't have the rights to make a game called "Diddy Kong Racing", they should just use a loophole and make Dixie Kong Racing instead.

I'm listening to the latest Kongversation on DK's 40th and the part where Diddy's creator came on to send birthday wishes actually made me cry. He didn't even reminice or say anything particularly emotional, there's just a sort of weight to it.
If there's one myth I'm grateful for it's the "Miyamoto created Mole Mania" myth, it's completely 100% false but at the same time even less people would talk about and play Mole Mania if not for it.
The thing I'm the most proud of doing in the Infinite thread is successfully convincing the thread owners that the use of "Hell" in the original DK Rap would not be inappropiate because the same word was used in Smash Wii U as a direct reference to purgatory whereas the DK Rap's "Hell" is an exclamation.
Amazing avatar
If I could make one fictional species real, it wouldn't be a mythical beast or a Pokémon, no - it'd be the Care Bears.
Why? Because of the Care Bear Stare - it's weaponised pacifism, and it's ****ing awesome. They could bring world peace without as much as a punch. THESE BEARS HAVE THE CURE TO PSYCHOPATHY WHY DOES NOBODY TALK ABOUT THIS
why didn't cappy just possess ridley lmao
Since we reclaimed "based" from the racists, can we now reclaim Shadilay? That song is such a bop and I don't want to feel guilty about listening to it.
Another "Mario joke character" who could've worked instead of Piranha Plant is the Blue Shell - a fighter with no arms or legs but spikes and wings could be really cool.
The Halberd stage is so weird to me - it feels like there should be way more layouts but there's only 2.
I love how a lot of the hype around K. Rool in Smash came from casual players who know nothing about DK beyond Mario Kart and just thought "haha funny crocodile with a gun!" - goes to show that the concept of "literally who?" or "kids won't know who this is" is completely irrelevant as long as it's a fun character.
I don't really care about SSBU's DLC anymore. I just wanna see new games.
Why do people want Yoshi to be listed as a Mario rep? Regardless of how much Yoshi's games have declined in quality such a change would still be a huge insult to the character and his legacy.
Crash Bandicoot should've become the industry standard for 3D platformers, not Mario 64.
I love it when old licensed games recreate their shows' intros in-engine
(possible epilepsy warning for the Eek! the Cat intro)
Mike the Wazowski Adventure 2
The contemt the Skylanders fandom has for Haedox is so weird.
EmpLemon's rants are strange in that he usually makes good points (with the exception of pretty much anything involving memes), but every single video he goes on some absurd, asinine tangent about something trivial and barely related, usually about internet culture - the Sephiroth dislikes segment of his Nintendo video comes to mind.
It's funny how, despite being the edgy counter-cultural "P.I." mascot, Conker was one of the only 90s/2000s platformers to not have any mildly offensive tribal stereotypes.

Finally, a shirt for me!
Me when Nintendo finds out I downloaded the "Wilford Brimley's StarTropics" ROM hack
If there's one trilogy that DOESN'T need a remake, it's the DKC trilogy.
- DKC3 wasn't very good, and that leaves the predicament of either leaving out a part of the trilogy and greatly disappointing its small fandom, or spending time and money remaking a game nobody really wants to play.
- Aesthetically the trilogy holds up really well to this day and is still stunning to look at in spite of digitization. In fact I'd argue it's aged better than a lot of early Pixar stuff.
- The only real flaws of the first two games (currency saving system and limited lives) can be negotiated with save states, which have been a consistent element of Nintendo's official emulators since the 3DS.
- Nintendo would probably go for live instrumentation with the soundtrack, which while good in its own right would not be able to capture the charm of the original soundtracks. (Compare Tropical Freeze's Stickerbush to DKC2's. Night and day.)
- The accursed "Mario Mandate" would likely result in some of the stranger fellows in the trilogy, especially 3, being tamed down or replaced.
- The DKC games were filled with cheeky British humour, which could very well be lost in translation if the games were to be remade by a Japanese staff then re-translated into English
- And the biggest blow of all to a potential DKC remake: instruction manuals are dead, so no more Cranky actively criticising Nintendo's business decisions in the manual.
"Why are we broke?" My dad asks while refusing to trust or support any online retailer that isn't Amazon.
I'm no copyright attorney but I do not think this is legal.

Wow, I was not expecting the leaked Warner Bros. rep to be anybody except Scorpion or Maxwell, but life is full of surprises. Strange they chose one of their acquired cartoons over Bugs or even a Hanna-Barbera rep, but still not a bad choice for the first non-game fighter.
It's funny how Shigesato Itoi is an extremely famous, important figure in Japan, but over here we just think of him as "the guy who did EarthBound".
Makes me wonder what celebrities in the Western world might be known for more obscure side ventures elsewhere. "Steven Spielberg? He's the Boom Blox guy, right?"
COPPA laws got people putting "THIS VIDEO IS FOR AGES 13+" in the descriptions of SpongeBob clips.
WHY IS ED IN MINECRAFT STORY MODE
There's something I've been meaning to say for a while, now I've got to let it all out...
Wow! Wow! Wubbzy? More like Boo! Boo! Wubbzy. God, this is the worst show ever made. This show is a huge rip-off to Yin Yang Yo!, which was way better than this. This show is about Wubbzy and his friends who like to go on failure adventures. Wubbzy is stupid, I bet if you asked him if Pluto is a planet or a star, he'd say it's a planet. Walden is so annoying, Widget is an insult to Sandy Cheeks from SpongeBob SquarePants, who is way better than her, and Daizy? Nobody gives a crap about her. Not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or even 8. The animation is terrible, the stories are lame, the music is lazy, and the theme song is so annoying. I am glad this show got cancelled by Nick Jr. in 2010. Wow! Wow! Wubbzy sucks, and so does 12oz Mouse. Yin Yang Yo! is over 6 billion times better than Wow! Wow! Wubbzy. Next rant: Franny's Feet, After that: Pocoyo, After that: Ajit Pai, After that: Brickleberry
What if it was all just a dream?
Every now and then I get a glitch where Boxing Ring and the Pokémon Stadiums' screens shrink and stretch, and I like to think that's a result of Incineroar's match against K. Rool, Jr, and Villager.
The voice acting in the American dub of Peppa Pig sounds like one of those intentionally uncomfortably sexual joke anime dubs.
For a while now I've been conceptualising a Smash fangame, don't think I'll ever make it but it's fun to imagine, and I've been thinking up potential rivalries for the fighters in it - and there's one rivalry that came to mind that I can't stop thinking about, so utterly stupid yet so perfectly sensical...
