Nintendo Direct is coming, guys!
My anxiety has grown really strong in the past minutes.

Not gonna say why since the reason can honestly feel odd to other people, but I'll just say It happened at Discord.

God, I hope things do get better for me already.
It will get better. You just have to overcome this and look forward to what may be a better tomorrow, which will be better if you can stay strong and not let whatever happened get to you. Trust me.

I'm gonna be getting a Shamrock Shake and some fries from McDonald's soon.

Unhealthy as hell but I don't give a damn.

Not sure if this Twitter account belongs to any particular user on this forum, but it really puts the Nintendo information drought into perspective:


Even if we include remakes like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, since they'd take a significant effort to make, that's only four announced (not even released - announced) titles from Nintendo over the course of an entire year, which seems like an bizarrely small number given the Switch's momentum.

Mind you, I do have a lot of games to work through in my backlog, but I've already beaten a lot of my physical games. Three of my remaining physical games are RPGs, but I don't know how long Astral Chain will be, and Link's Awakening won't take long to beat based on how quickly I got through dungeons 4 and 5.
After all that dexit drama I never want to hear the phrase "corporate apologist" ever again.

Is Nintendo not live streaming a commercial a big enough issue thar people really need to resort to ad hominen imply things about eachother's moral or political stances? I hate fanbases sometimes.

...Sorry about the random mini-rant, that tweeter's attitude just rubbed me the wrong way. I honestly don't care if people want a direct or not.

So, I’ve been on a classic cartoons kick and it got me wondering. What was the golden age of animation like in Japan? When Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse were delighting the US in animated shorts, what cartoons were dazzling young Japanese children at the same time? Does anyone have an idea?

Astro Boy. It's the Micky Mouse of Japan.

Yes. Eating McDonalds food is unhealthy and bad. Go to BK instead.

I can't wait to get fired so I can't make this joke any longer.
Now, I like a good Hershey Pie (that you can also buy at other places, mind you), but a Shamrock only comes once a year so it takes priority.

also my sister went to BK and gave me the rest of her fries earlier

I mean, to be frank.

To the average consumer? No not really.

To the share holders? Absolutely.

Those share holders want their investments back, and them not seeing anything causes them to get real nervous.

Wendy’s is the only fast food I don’t feel shame about eating.
Eh. Wendy's has lost their game near my way. Now it's consistently cold food.

They only got a good marketing team what with their Twitter account.

I like to go to Domino's Pizza since It is the only pizzeria in my island which servers pizzas with cheese crust.

Pizza Rogers is also good doh.

Well I’m sure it differs in certain areas, but the Wendy’s where I’m at? Great stuff.


*I read as I'm sipping on a Dr. Pepper I got at Wendy's*

Noi, how do you do that? It's scaring me :yoshi:

How many issues of the IDW Sonic the Hedgehog comics are there?

The subscription service I'm using only has 5.
I don't read it, but I want to say much more than that since it seemed to be running since after Forces, but I don't know for sure.

I'm just saying Ronald McDonald didn't deserve to die because of a clown scare. He's a good mascot.

That Burger King mascot is different tho.

KFC's marketing ****s all over Popeye's tho. They even got a ****ing dating sim game. But I think Wendy's had one first?

Edit: Apparently not. I could've sworn I remember someone like the Game Grumps playing a Wendy's dating sim but I guess not

Just checked: It's at 25 issues now with #30 coming in May.

Unless less my subscription service updates in the near future, 5 issues doesn't sound much right now.

KFC is just bizarre.

It shows up all the time in anime in Japan instead of being a knock off like Wacdonalds

In China, it does crossover **** with games and tv shows all the times(Arknights has an entire in game costume line based on kfc)

And then the visual novel...

Yeah, I can't think of ANY product placement in anime to such extreme hilarity to the point of legendary
