So, Splatoon is getting two manga series that will be serialized in the Weekly Famitsu magazine.

Not one, but two manga at once. Seems like the series has become successful over there. There's plenty of merchandising as well, which also attests to this.

Well, it did sell 1 million copies throughout 2015 since its launch in May, meaning it took less than a year to achieve that number.

For those Wii U owners out there be careful: Meme Run successor Bigley's Revenge has been released on the Nintendo eShop today. :c

Looking at its eShop page, it's clear it hasn't learned from Meme Run. Here are some actual snippets from the eShop page: I couldn't make this stuff up even if I wanted too. :glare:

Why?
The fact that someone at Nintendo said "yeah, you can put that on the e-Shop", saddens me.

Not surprising, since I think it already got an official manga around the launch of the game.

Nintendo actually allowed both of these games to be released.

I can't think of a fathomable reason why they would commit such a crime.

Just watch some gameplay footage of Bigley's Revenge.

Good god, it was ear **** and horrific. I think I'll save you guys the trouble and not post a link. And something tells me Ninja Pig Studios didn't make the models (or gotten permission) of the First Person shooter's arms or the weapons in the game (please tell me he stole them so it can be removed from the eShop.

Ey, Steam constantly allows asset pack flips and horribly bad indie games on it, welcome to the dark side of the indie scene.

...You've never seen the indie lineup on the Xbox 360? Not the official stuff but the smaller games.


Oh good lord, those smaller games

Well, Steam is a whole different beast.

I'd think Nintendo would have some kind of self control.

Welp. Time to buy it before it goes off the eShop :p.

That's a meme game? But it's actually good.
Well we don't know quite yet.

Just gotta wait for April 1st this year. :V

Once again...

Have you guys played anything translated by Nintendo of America in the past 3 years?

They embrace this kind of stuff.

Don't waste your time on it, all it is is a game that uses irrelevant memes and resued assets from much better games, you're better off playing a better indie game that had time and sweat put into it.

. . .I kinda want to play multiplayer on XCX, but somehow I forgot how to create multiplayer rooms.

That and I don't really have anyone on here that plays on my Friend List.

I figured I'd ask for help with these matters here because this is the DIGNIFIED social.

I wasn't referring to Nintendo's own stuff, though. Yes, they reference memes but they're mainly just that, references.

Meme Run and its sequel are .. iffy in a number of areas.

IIRC, Meme Run got taken down from the eShop due to a copyright claim on the trollface?

I'll be very happy if copyright strikes back on it's successor.

Oh wow, chapter 2 of King's quest went kind of dark

Your subjects and you are trapped in a goblin prison, and everyone is dying

You have to try and decide who to save in order to escape, and every decision you make could mean someone's death

Some of them are closer to death than others

I was actually looking for a "Smash la Smash" edit thingy I saw using Rosalina before since we seem to be doing that.

Instead, I found something much better.



Now this is the kind of quality Facebook content I could use on my News Feed.

Who's the inexplicable person who plays Ma--



OH SWEET GOD.

EVEN IF PIT ACTUALLY WORKS SO WELL FOR MAKO.
No keep it. Zelda as Satsuki is perfect

That means that :4villagerf: is Nui and :4bayonetta: as Ragyo

Example, you can only get 1 thing of medicine it looks like

So, you have to make a choice to save the baker's wife or the "Majestic Unicorn" with it

People don't like Female Corrin's design in Fates?

The only difference is showing a little more thigh.

That's really inconsequential.

The problem comes in when she gets a mount. Then you realize she's wearing black panties for all to see.

In fact, I'm pretty sure female Generals, aka the HUGE ARMORED UNITS, have exposed butts in this game.
